The Daily Engadget: Nikon Announces D3S, OpenMoko Makes Wikipedia Wireless
Our friends over at Engadget obsessively cover everything new in gadgets and consumer electronics, which is why we compile this daily roundup of their top stuff (or, at least, what we think is tops). For more details on any of these stories, click on the Engadget links in each story below.

Nikon D3S SLR Gets Official
For those needing the latest and greatest in the DSLR world, there's the D3S from Nikon. The $5,100 shooter packs a 12.1 megapixel sensor and enough light sensitivity to shoot in the dark.

OpenMoko's WikiReader Takes Wikipedia Anywhere
Listen, we know we shouldn't, but we use Wikipedia all the time. Typically, its information is solid enough to give, at least, a general idea of a topic, and it's much more quickly accessible than, say, the Encyclopedia Britannica. Plus, unlike OpenMoko's new wireless WikiReader, the Encyclopedia Britannica won't fit in your backpack, much less your pocket.

Barnes & Noble E-Reader Announcement Next Week?
Barnes & Noble has announced that it will be hosting an event next week. Few have any doubt that the company will be debuting its e-book reader.

Flip MinoHD Goes Premium
The Flip revolutionized video recording for the YouTube generation, and the MinoHD added more pixels. Now the "Premium" model takes things further, with more storage, a bigger screen, and a sleeker design.

Blockbuster On Demand Hits TiVo
Netflix may be winning the war, but Blockbuster isn't giving up yet, securing on-demand rentals on TiVo boxes.

Epson's PictureMate Printer Charm Prints Photos, Looks Cute
There's still something wonderful about looking at a picture on paper, and one of the cutest ways to facilitate that from the comfort of home is Epson's new PictureMate Charm printer.

GlideTV Navigator Is the Funkiest Remote Control Ever
Everyone knows what a remote control looks like: a flat slab with a dizzying array of buttons. Not this one, though; it looks like something out of 'Star Trek.'

Philips Rationalizer Bracelet Is a 21st Century Mood Ring
Mood rings may have been super cool in the '70s, but these days, you need something a bit more high-tech. Behold the Rationalizer EmoBowl and EmoBracelet from Philips.
