Today's Story Highlights

Gadgets: Virtual Sensations, Radio-Wave Charges and a Bitcoin Keeper
We're edging ever closer toward a virtual reality boom, with Oculus
finally promising its Rift headset will arrive in 2016. Yet what if
there were a way to make VR even more immersive? Feelreal has come up
with two devices -- a virtual reality mask and a helmet -- that aim to
draw users almost entirely into a fictional world. The mask is an add-
on, compatible with major VR headsets.

The Last Apple Watch Review You'll Ever Need to Read
If you're thinking about getting an Apple Watch and have been on the
fence, this review is for you. Why? The Apple Watch, it turns out, is
less about being the perfect smartwatch than about being a watch. For
the fence sitters out there, these two questions are really where you
should start: First, do you want a watch? Second, do you want a digital
wearable device that can transform your life?

Cyanogen Taps Truecaller in Effort to Build a Better Mobile OS
Cyanogen, best known for its FOSS Android-based OS, CyanogenMod, soon
will provide caller ID screening and spam blocking directly from the
native dialer on Cyanogen OS, the commercial version of its operating
system. These capabilities will be provided through the company's global
partnership with Truecaller. They will be baked into future smartphone
devices preloaded with Cyanogen OS.

Splatoon: Nintendo Hits You With Its Best Shot
Nintendo has invited players to paint the town red -- and green and blue
and a palette of other colors -- in Global Testfire events over the
weekend for Splatoon, a new game launching May 29 exclusively on the Wii
U. The Testfire events will provide three hour-long windows to try out
Splatoon and provide Nintendo with the server stress-testing the game
will need for a successful launch.

Voyager-X Will Take You on a New Xfce Journey
Voyager-X 10.14.4, released in March, is based on Xubuntu/Ubuntu 12.04
LTS. This new Voyager-X is one of the first distros to use the new Xfce
4.12 desktop, more than one year in the making. Ubuntu has yet to
implement it, and few other Linux distros have put the new update into
play. Thus, the latest Xfce desktop is considered "experimental."
However, it is a fully functional upgrade.
