Google announces its foray into the beverage market with Google Gulp BETA.

An excerpt –
At Google our mission is to organize the world’s information and make it useful and accessible to our users. But any piece of information’s usefulness derives, to a depressing degree, from the cognitive ability of the user who’s using it. That’s why we’re pleased to announce Google Gulp (BETA)with Auto-Drink(LIMITED RELEASE), a line of “smart drinks” designed to maximize your surfing efficiency by making you more intelligent, and less thirsty.

Think fruity. Think refreshing.
Think a DNA scanner embedded in the lip of your bottle reading all 3 gigabytes of your base pair genetic data in a fraction of a second, fine-tuning your individual hormonal cocktail in real time using our patented Auto-Drink technology, and slamming a truckload of electrolytic neurotransmitter smart-drug stimulants past the blood-brain barrier to achieve maximum optimization of your soon-to-be-grateful cerebral cortex. Plus, it’s low in carbs! And with flavors ranging from Beta Carroty to Glutamate Grape, you’ll never run out of ways to quench your thirst for knowledge.

Apple and PalmOne team up on the ultimate hybrid phone but skimp a bit on the form factor.

Labelled the iTreoPod, this most brilliant combination has set the world on its ear, and, unlike any other Apple announcement, news of its existence wasn’t leaked months before the actual arrival date.

The iTreoPod combines the best of the insanely popular Apple iPod with the raw genius of the much-lauded Treo 650. This device can make calls, shoot pictures, surf the Web, and play iTunes music. It also fits nicely in a trouser pocket if, say, you buy your pants at Big & Tall.
