You can now shell out more of your hard earned cash to subscribe to DIRECTV 3D HD channels. The channels are free for existing DIRECTV subscribers, but it’s another $10.00 a month for a new subscription. Personally, I just can’t get off on the idea that I have to wear glasses to watch TV. It’s just ridiculous to me. Until they can bring the technology of the Nintendo 3DS to HDTV sized screens, I’ll pass on this one. But for you future forefront feeling people out there, I guess this is good news for you.

For existing and new subscribers to DIRECTV, if you’re interested in the 3D HD service, you can sign up [here].

The Xbox 360 S is out. Here’s a review and as early as now, here‘s a case of the RRoD. It’s got a sleeker design and it comes in glossy black. They didn’t make much of a design change on the controller. Instead of the standard black body and gray analog sticks and D-pad, the new controller is all black. It has built in Wireless N and the usual HDMI input and USB ports. There’s also a plug for the Kinect, which is the final name of Project Natal. The Xbox 360 S is priced at $299.99. Kinect pricing is TBA.

Nintendo
It’s official. Nintendo is calling it the Nintendo 3DS. Unlike other 3D devices, the 3DS doesn’t require you to wear any ridiculous glasses. It utilized a 200 MHz DMP Pica200 IP core to display the 3D graphics. Pricing is expected to be between $150 and $200. The release date is still a bit sketchy. Expected ship date is the first quarter of 2011. More here.

Apple
The new iPhone 4 is to be released on June 24 according to Steve Jobs on WWDC 2010. The  phone will have the following: New look, new processor, new display, and a new camera. Details are here. Colors available will be black and white. Pricing will be $199 for $16GB and $299 for 32GB. Of course, this only applies if you sign up for two years with AT&T. Also the new iPhone OS dubbed iOS 4 has been released. It was expected within the day and apparently, on the same day, it has already been unlocked. I won’t be updating to IOS 4 any time soon because I’m still using an iPhone 2G and Steve Jobs doesn’t like me. I’m looking to get a new phone and I’m open to suggestions.
