...found a real German shepherd frozen in a solid block in a large freezer next to a bouquet of roses and some dog food. Obara would later say he had preserved it with the hope that, one day, science would enable him to "reanimate my loving pet into a clone dog." Strange as it was, the dog fits a pattern Obara had of hoarding personal detritus. There were stacks of old car batteries, trashed TV sets, receipts, journals and personal tape recordings dating back to the 1970s. The biggest haul comprised more than 200 videotapes showing dozens of apparently unconscious...

Speaking of Memory Sticks, that's the storage format the Sony Clie ($499) uses--not surprising, since Sony invented it. The Clie PEG-N710C (great name!) is an upgrade of last year's feeble foray into the Palm clone market. There are two remarkable things about it. The first is its brilliant color screen, which makes the Palm m505's look putrid. The second is the built-in music player. This is the first Palm clone to feature a headphone jack and the ability to play MP3s--no simple trick, since the 33 MHz processor that powers these PDAs...

...lawyer's warning is echoed by the few people in Shenzhen who worry about the underdeveloped conscience of a hurried Hong Kong clone. He Qinglian, a 47-year-old Shenzhen economic researcher and journalist, wrote a pamphlet in March last year that detailed state corruption. For that public service she has been banned from publishing and is watched day and night by police, but is unfazed, saying Shenzhen provides the perfect "window" for her research. "Rich people are getting richer and the poor poorer," she says. "The poor have no rights and are forced into crime, killing, stealing and hijacking...

...like AOL, discover any music you like and move it anywhere you choose, in a process so seamless that you won't mind paying for it monthly. The nightmare scenario: a poor selection of music in confusing and conflicting file formats that will drive you underground to a Napster clone like Aimster. So every portal needs to do a deal with MusicNet and Duet--at the very least. "None of these services can survive without content from all five major labels," says Dannielle Romano, music analyst at Jupiter Media Metrix. Not to mention the hundreds of independent labels they...

Rodriguez, however, pushes into uncharted territory through the cotton-candy dreamscape world of his impish villain Floop (a marvelous Alan Cumming), a Pee-Wee Herman clone who serves as ringmaster for a Teletubbies-styled kiddie show and dreams of-what else-world domination. Some of the elements in his towering, Gothic seaside castle reflect a vibrant visual imagination, most notably a sprawling floor that proves to be composed of giant jigsaw puzzle pieces. Others, such as the robot minions whose limbs consist of nothing but thumbs, smack of watered-down Tim Burton...
