Nokia’s XpressMusic 5800 Tube launching October 2nd?

September 23rd, 2008 by

Okay, so first we heard that Nokia’s Comes with Music service would be good and ready by October 2nd. Then we heard October 17th. Now, a certain “anonymous industry source” has revealed that the long-awaited XpressMusic 5800 (or the Tube, as it were) will be launching on the 2nd of next month. With so much conflicting evidence out and about, we’re firmly in “wait and see” mode at this point, and considering that “launch” gives no indication of a ship date, we reckon you’re better off doing the same.

[Thanks, Mikkel]

Rock Band 2 standalone instruments set to ship next week

September 11th, 2008 by

Filed under: Gaming, Peripherals

Previously, the ship dates for Rock Band 2 instruments ranged from “sometime within the next few months” to “sometime.” Now, however, we’re hearing that the standalone wireless drums ($90) and guitar ($70) will begin to ship out next week. Additionally, Mad Catz’s Fender P-Bass wireless guitar controller ($70) and the wired ION Drum Rocker set ($300) should clutter up floor space around the same time. RB2 party to celebrate the Q3 close? Sign us up.
