Is there an overlap between readers of Wired and viewers of Dexter , the Showtime series about a serial killer? An upcoming ad campaign for the show will feature Dexter (aka actor Michael C. Hall of Six Feet Under fame) gracing the cover of a magazine that looks exactly like Wired, which is owned by Conde Nast. I guess Dexter is a hacker. I’m not sure. I’ve never seen the show, only the ads on the New York City subway. If they replace those ads with these fake Wired ads, I wonder which brand will get the recognition bump. Is this an effective ad? Does it make you want to watch the show, or buy the magazine? Or neither one? It’s a shame what he did to that suit. Crunch Network : CrunchGear drool over the sexiest new gadgets and hardware.

QiGi 6 offers Windows Mobile 6.1 or Android - but not both

Looking to dabble with Android, but the T-Mobile G1’s wonky banana-chin just doesn’t fit the bill? Well, how about a random touchscreen handset from an obscure Chinese manufacturer, instead? As an added bonus, this one actually comes in two flavors: Android, or Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro. Unfortunately it’s a one-or-the-other setup - there’s no dual booting to be had here, which would make the device significantly more notable. Specs after the jump. While we c... more
