Wing Suit

Wing suit flying is “the art of flying the human body through the air using a special jumpsuit that shapes the human body into an airfoil which can create lift.” Video after the break.

The wingsuit flier wears parachute equipment designed for skydiving or BASE jumping. The flier will deploy the parachute at a planned altitude and unzip the arm wings, if necessary, so they can reach up to the control toggles and fly to a normal parachute landing.

Kindle

Here are the first pictures of the second-generation Amazon Kindle. This model “appears to address complaints over the original’s look head-on, rounding the corners and ditching the oddball angles; the scroll wheel has been replaced with a joystick.” Click here for first picture in gallery.

What might be a little troublesome is the fact that the battery does not look to be user-accessible, and there’s no more SD card slot. In the top left corner of the device, it gives you a display of how much memory is left, and our guy’s unit showed 1403 MB.
