THANK YOU! Digital Fall 2013 Was Amazing, And We Have A Winner

THANK YOU! Digital Fall 2013 Was Amazing, And We Have A Winner

On September 30, we held the Ubergizmo Digital Fall 2013 party, which was co-produced with Stained Glass Labs, as the closing party of the Glazed conference. Digital Fall 2013 was held in a night club in San Francisco, and featured a Tech Fashion Show with a lot of wearable devices being shown on the runaway. During the evening, attendees were able to wow us with their own wearable devices and "I've never seen so many pairs of Google Glass" was a common piece of feedback from our guests. We would like to thank Lenovo for sponsoring the event.
Talking about Lenovo, we're glad to announce that Jeff I.

Dropbox Releases Update For iOS 7

Dropbox Releases Update For iOS 7

Just last week, Dropbox unveiled what looked like a potentially new design for iOS 7. The good news for Dropbox users is that if you did not already set your apps to be updated automatically, you can hit up the iTunes App Store and download the update which will bring your version of Dropbox up to the latest version where not only has the app been redesigned to fit the overall flatter and minimalist theme of iOS 7, but it has also introduced a host of small tweaks that should hopefully make your Dropbox experience better.

Mitsubishi Concept GC-PHEV could hint at next-gen Montero (video)

Mitsubishi Concept GC-PHEV could hint at next-gen Montero (video)

In desperate need of some competitive new products, Mitsubishi showed up at the Tokyo Motor Show with three concept vehicles. The most important of them might just be this fullsize Concept GC-PHEV (Grand Cruiser). With its full-time four-wheel-drive system and roughly the right package size, we can only hope it hints at a future design for the Pajero/Montero. Longer, taller and wider than the current Pajero (which is still offered in other markets), the Concept GC-PHEV is a big SUV with a fuel-efficient plug-in hybrid powertrain.

1964 Ferrari 250 LM expected to net $12-15 million at RM's NY auction

1964 Ferrari 250 LM expected to net $12-15 million at RM's NY auction

If you're one of the very fortunate souls that has $12 to $15 million burning a very large hole in your pocket, we've found the perfect way to liberate yourself from the burden of so much money - buy this Ferrari, which is being put up for auction. It's a supremely rare Ferrari 250 LM, the 24th member of a 32-car run, that rolled off the assembly line on what we imagine was a brilliant, sunny Italian summer's day in July of 1964. Officially known as Chassis 6107, this 250 LM is rare because unlike its brothers, it wasn't originally bought to be a race car.

Mazda CEO says rotary not viable, so don't look for a new one

Mazda CEO says rotary not viable, so don't look for a new one

We have some very sad news to report, rotor-heads fans: Don't expect a new rotary-powered vehicle anytime soon. This comes straight from Masamichi Kogai, the CEO of Mazda, which is the only company to ever market a commercially successful rotary-powered automobile in the world. The issue, as it has pretty much always been, is environmental. While the Wankel rotary engine does indeed make a lot of power in a small, lightweight package, it does so while burning lots of fuel and emitting lots of noxious gases into the atmosphere, at least when running on gasoline.
