In today's Remainders, the tablet-confirming Tweet from a German retailer that wasn't really from a German retailer, the Air Force smushes some faces with 7Gs, an iPhone app to help you keep track of all those crazy rumors, and more!
Markt Up
This morning, technology websites were buzzing with news that the Apple tablet's price had been leaked by a German retailer. The source: a Tweet from German electronics giant Media Markt which claimed the tablet would be available on March 1 for roughly $600 with a T-Mobile contract or $1000 without. This seemed fishy to us. Why would a German retailer be privy to all of this information on Apple's supersecret device? Well, a few hours later our skepticism was confirmed: a Media Markt representative confirmed that the Twitter account was not an official one. The real question here: who's getting their kicks pretending to be a big German electronics store on Twitter? [MacRumors]
Barf Bag
Today Wired dug up this little gem that reminded us why we didn't pursue our dreams of joining the Air Force. Though the video is nearly half a decade old, and thus not quite fresh enough to warrant a post, there is something truly timeless about watching men and women of all shapes and sizes contorted into entirely different shapes and sizes by the face-smushing, mind-melting, puke-inducing power of 7Gs.

Scary Berry
If the unicorn is the iPhone's spirit animal in the great Gadgetverse, this monster is surely the Blackberry's.
