Leaks usually come from industry insiders, but every once in a while we come across one that’s just sitting there in plain sight on a major retailer’s website. This time around it was Motorola’s Moto 360 turn to be revealed complete with specs, price, and features by none other than Best Buy. The listing has since been removed, but luckily a screenshot remains and we can see the upcoming Android Wear smartwatch in all of its splendor thanks to it. Most of this coincides with previous rumors so we’re not learning a whole lot of new details here, but this listing is very useful regardless because it helps confirm what most sources have been speculating about the Moto 360.

The smartwatch will come equipped with a 1.5-inch backlit LCD touch screen running at 320 x 290 resolution and packing 205 pixels per inch. On the hardware side, the Moto 360 will be powered by a Texas Instruments processor, although no other details are available at this time. Some other specs include 512 RAM, li-io battery, and Gorilla Glass 3 protection. The smartwatch will be compatible with devices running on Android 4.3 KitKat or later and can be synced with them via Bluetooth 4.0. We also find out from Best Buy that the Moto 360 is waterproof up to 3.3 feet for up to 30 minutes and comes with features such as voice activation, vibration alert, heart-rate monitor, and pedometer.

Motorola’s upcoming Android Wear smartwatch has a stainless-steel case, plastic back and leather band. The device will be available for purchase starting at $250 according to the retailer. Best Buy doesn’t say anything about a shipping date, but we’ve learned recently that Google has sent out emails to I/O participants who opted for a Moto 360 back in June. The email suggests that the device will launch on September 4th. Furthermore, Motorola already sent invites for an event scheduled to take place on the very same day so it’s very likely that the smartwatch will be launched on September 4th and start shipping shortly after.

Who doesn’t enjoy listening to a good story. Personally I love reading about the people who inspire me and what it took for them to achieve their success. As I am a bit of a self confessed tech geek I think there is no better way to discover these stories than by reading every day some articles or the newspaper . My bookcases are filled with good tech biographies, they remind me that anyone can be a success. So even if you come from an underprivileged part of society or you aren’t the smartest person in the room we all have a chance to reach the top. The same message shines in my beliefs. All it takes to succeed is a good idea, a little risk and a lot of hard work and any geek can become a success. VENI VIDI VICI .

This Resident Evil Avengers-esque team-up features Leon S. Kennedy, Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, Claire Redfield, and Rebecca Chambers.

The T-Virus and killer whales take the gang to Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay, where a new nightmare awaits. In magnificent slow motion and with progressively heavier ordinance, the Dream Team will supposedly destroy zombies, Lickers, mutant orcas, and anything else foolish or nasty enough to stand in their path.

Sony’s PS5 firmware update is everyone’s favorite news story. It’s been a while, but don’t get too excited—this is just a minor one. No biggie.

PS5 system software 23.01-07.40.00 does what? Latest firmware patch notes:

  • System software performance and stability increased.
  • We improved screen messaging and usability.

That’s it! Sony’s definition of “some screens” is unclear, but perhaps it improves communications. PS5 messages weren’t a problem, though. The update is barely over 1GB, so updating your console won’t take long.

Excited for this PS5 update?

Want more classic Metal Gear Solid remakes on PS5? You’ll need to speak Konami’s language—dollar bills—to express your desire.

“Regarding remakes of previous games in the series other than Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, we will listen to player demand and consider accordingly,” a Konami official told IGN.

Konami explained that “we chose Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater because it depicts the birth of Big Boss (Naked Snake), which is the starting point of the Metal Gear series.” Fans wishing it would last forever contributed.

Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, yes? Maybe you’ll buy another disc to show Konami you’ll pay again?
