We might not all be rich enough to hire private security guards to
secure our homes, but perhaps in the future we'll all sport the
Sentrybot home defense system. Conceptualized by Omni Consumer
Products and developed by Security Concepts, the Sentrybot sports a
patented Solid-Plasma compact weapon, which coupled with the
Intruder Recognition software should be good enough to keep the bad
guys at bay. Check out a video detailing the Sentrybot after the
jump. Permalink: Sentrybot Defends Your Home With Its Solid-Plasma

The team over at iFixit have been busy with the tools again, this
time dismantling the new Dell Streak to reveal all its secrets. The
iFixit team found the Dell Streak a very easy device to tear down
to its bare components and have discovered a Qualcomm QSD8250

Google just confirmed it at an Android / Flash event in San
Francisco, and sure enough, our trusty Nexus One just found,
downloaded and installed the final (read: non-beta) version of

looking as sweet as ever so far. Nexus One owners can hit up the
Android Market to get their download on, and we'd highly encourage
you to bookmark a few dozen Flash sites just to rub in the faces of
your dearest iDevice-owning friends. Just sayin'.Flash Player 10.1
goes final for Nexus One handsets, available to download now

JRob won our Proton Pack Backpack giveaway last week and told us he
would give it to his daughter if he won. At first we didn't believe
a CrunchGear reader could create something as good and wholesome as
a "daughter" or have the willpower to give her his awesome backpack
if he won, but to our surprise both of these are true. Here's
little Miss JRob wearing her new backpack to school, giving the
thumbs up to the tired old men at CG, who, although their hearts be
necrotic and their souls withered and storm-torn, still love to see
how happy kids can be when they get something cool.

What is GigaPros? GigaPros provides personal hosting accounts. They
are fast and cheap. Not the greatest customer service in the world
(it takes time to reach someone on the phone) - but for how much
you pay its pretty good. I have two GigaPros shared hosting
accounts, and they are fast. No downtime yet, but its only been 3
months. Chat support is good, but phone hold times are long, like 5
minutes. I hate that. cPanel is included, which is good. Unlimited
MySQL databases, check. Unlimited bandwidth and storage, check.
They will migrate your account for free too. Pretty standard stuff,
but on the cheap + fast scales they rock. No complaints yet. What
