- Ubuntu 8.10 Released - Canonical Ltd. announced the upcoming
availability of
Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop Edition for free download on 30 October. In related
news, Canonical also announced the simultaneous release of Ubuntu 8.10
Server Edition. Ubuntu 8.10 Desktop Edition is designed for the pervasively
connected digital lifestyle. With new 3G network support, users can move
smoothly from wired and WiFi networks onto 3G cellphone networks while
traveling. Ubuntu 8.10 is also built to be shared - users can start a quick
"guest session" on the fly and let someone use their computer to surf the
web or check email, while maintaining the security and integrity of their
own data. And if that person really enjoys their brief session as an Ubuntu
guest, they can put Ubuntu on any USB key and take it home to install on
their own computer rather than having to burn a CD. As a bonus, all Ubuntu
8.10 users will be able to enjoy programming from the BBC, with high quality
streamed content available through the default media players in Ubuntu 8.10.
Canonical has worked with the BBC to make sure that much of the material is
available to users in all locations.

- SecondLight: Surface on Steroids (video) - SecondLight works by
projecting two different images from beneath the table. The table surface
itself is formed of a liquid crystal display that switches between frosted
and transparent states when electrical voltage is passed through it. By
rapidly flicking the screen between the two states, the table appears as
permanently diffuse, displaying an image like an ordinary Surface table. The
screen is, in fact, transparent for half the time. And during these periods
then second image is beamed on to the paper, confusing the eye into
believing it's seeing two images simultaneously. Using an infrared camera,
the secondary "display" can also be used as a multitouch surface. What's
more, it can display video.
