Engadget reports, Hot, Hot, Holiday Phone!

As reported by Engadget today:

Kids will be fainting everywhere once the word hits the streets - It's hard to believe that what we're looking at is real -- but Engadget assures you, the picture above is in fact the PlayStation Phone you've long been waiting for. Likely Android, Sony Marketplace which will allow you to purchase and download games designed for the new platform. The device snapped up top is sporting a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 (a chip similar to the one found in the G2, but 200MHz faster), 512MB of RAM, 1GB of ROM, and the screen is in the range of 3.7 to 4.1 inches. The handset does indeed have a long touchpad in the center which is apparently multitouch, and you can see in the photos that it's still bearing those familiar PlayStation shoulder buttons. No Memory Stick slot but there is support for microSD cards.

The particular model featured in Engadget is still in prototyping mode. It may arrive, just in time for the holidays (kid fingers crossed)!

Using your Control Keys, Test Drive A Real Mitsubishi from your Computer!

Ok, this is a new one!  Marketers link real world action to virtual controls for a new take on the old Test Drive.

Mitshubishi has outfitted one of its new Outlanders with a robotic control system that allows users to remotely control it from a PC. Cameras in the car – which naturally will be on a closed course – will deliver a live feed to drivers, who can take the auto for a spin to see how it measures up against other cars you drive with your arrow keys. Fantastic way, to get potential buyer a chance to interact with the car, kudos!

India's Richest Man, Builds THE WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE HOME, Worth $1B in Mumbai! Wow!

Anyone invited to this house warming party?

India's richest man, and Forbes's fourth richest man, Mukesh Ambani, has built the world's most expensive house in Mumbai. It is estimated to be worth a little over $1 billion. The construction has 27 stories, is 173 meters high and has 37,000 square meters of floor space (more than the Palace of Versailles). It contains a health club with a gym and dance studio, at least one swimming pool, a ballroom, guestrooms, a variety of lounges and a 50-seater cinema. There are three helicopter pads on the roof and a car park for 160 vehicles on the ground floors. The home boasts an unbelievable staff of 600. Extensive room for a family, Ambani, his wife and 3 children - wow!

How does this Stanford University drop-out make a living? Energy. At age 52, he owns Reliance Industries, already India's most valuable company, recently bid $2 billion (mere double the cost of his home) for 65% stake in troubled Canadian oil sands outfit Value Creation. Firm's $14.5 billion offer to buy bankrupt petrochemicals maker LyondellBasell was rejected. Since September company has sold treasury shares worth $2 billion to be used for acquisitions. Late father, Dhirubhai, founded Reliance and built it into a massive conglomerate. After he died, Mukesh and his brother, Anil, ran the family business together for a brief time. But siblings feuded over control; mother eventually brokered split of assets, with Mukesh getting oil and gas and petrochemicals businesses. Still at odds with Anil over gas supply agreement; awaiting Supreme Court's final ruling. Special interest, he all so owns the cricket team, Mumbai Indians.
