As of tonight NVIDIA’s got one more notch to add to that bed post: the GeForce 9600 GSO, which is a little more on the cheap date end of the spectrum. The first of the card-makers to launch their 9600 GSO is EVGA, with a 650MHz, 384MB / 1900MHz DDR3, PCI Express 2.0 ditty (e-GeForce 9600GSO Superclocked 384MB), as well as an even lower end 550MHz, 384MB / 1600MHz version (e-GeForce 9600GSO 384MB). And yeah, it does DirectX 10 — not that you should even need to ask.
[Thanks, Carlos]

We already knew Lenovo’s 11-inch darling was shipping to eager US-based consumers “soon,” but now we’ve got a definitive date for you to circle on that jam-packed calendar: April 29th. The IdeaPad U110 will indeed be available for order on Tuesday, and it’ll be starting a full Benjamin less than we previously heard (down to $1,899, to be exact) directly from Lenovo. We’re still waiting on the full list of specifications as well as the slate of retailers that will likely be selling it, but if you’re anxious for more right this very moment, you can check out a promotional video of the unit in black and red right after the break.

Details are fuzzy right now — and what details there are have been officially denied — but the Japanese press is having a bit of a field day over the possibility of a Sanyo selloff to Matsushita / Panasonic. Apparently Goldman Sachs, Sumitomo, and Daiwa own some 67% of Sanyo’s equity, and as Japanese paper Yomiuri reports, are looking at the possibility of transferring said equity to or otherwise forming a partnership with Matsushita. Again, both Matsu and Sanyo are denying the report as of now, so it’s all still up in the air as the salarymen figure out whether to combine both companies to make a corporate entity larger than even Hitachi (which currently sits at the top of Japan’s heap).

Back in February, we wrote about DISH Network’s ad campaign featuring comedian Frank Caliendo. In the ads, Caliendo promotes the company while impersonating the President, John Madden, Charles Barkley and others.
Evidently, the ads didn’t sit well with Madden and Barkley, who threatened to take legal action against EchoStar. In response, the company went to court, […]

Ben (aka Benjamin Linus), leader of the Others and all around creepy manipulator, doesn’t just shoot guns all the time — as we find out in a flashforward to 2005, he also apparently shoots Nikon as well. Now, there’s certainly nothing wrong with a D100, but Ben does kind of strike us as the calculating, discerning type that would probably prefer a full-frame Canon though, you know?

Waiting for a price drop on the Nintendo Wii or DS? Don’t hold your breath. Nintendo’s Satoru Iwata told analysts on Friday that there are no price drop plans for the hot-selling units. Iwata insisted this is because Nintendo doesn’t want to annoy those who already paid full price, but it’s pretty clear that there’s also just no need to drop the price on something that’s already selling like mad.
