It’s the world’s smallest mobile phone and you can wear it on your wrist just like it was an ordinary watch. The phone features bluetooth, GSM850/900/ 1800/1900Mhz compability, 128 MB of RAM and it’s also water resistant.
Samsung electronics has announced the development of high capacity microSD cards for multimedia devices. The new card not only stores mammoth 8GB of data but is also faster than the current class of SD and SDHC cards. It reads at a record speed of 16MB/s and writes at 6MB/s, faster than SDHC’s write speed which is at 4MB/s.
Today we're featuring three new gaming keypads competing to take up that empty space to the left (or right) of your existing keyboard. First there's the updated Flexiglow Cyber Snipa, designed exclusively for FPS gaming with its creative layout of gaming keys. Next there's the Saitek Pro Gamer Command Unit that's capable of handling tasks in FPS and RTS gaming. And last, there's the Genius ErgoMedia 500, a spitting image of one of our recommended gaming keypads: the Nostromo N52.
How will these gaming keypads fair against each other? And, how do they match up against our favorite gaming keypads: the WolfKing Warrior and Ideazon Fang? Because it's been a while since we reviewed these older game pads, we'll be grading the three in this roundup on a tougher scale to keep up with today's crop of demanding games.
Strangely the company denies having any plans to ship the (slightly) enlarged PS3 to any other territories even though sources report it has already been presented for FCC filing. Does any of this mean anything? Well, it means Sony is keen to protect its market presence in the Far East since the launch of the 120GB Xbox 360 Elite but little more. After all PS3 hard drives can be easily swapped out for any standard 2.5 incher. So can we expect any other hardware modifications in these beasties? Nope.
The result, code-named Intel mobile Metro notebook, is less than 0.7 inches thick—about one-quarter of an inch thicker than Motorola's (MOT) iconic cell phone, making it the world's thinnest notebook. And at 2.25 pounds, it's also one of the lightest small-sized portable computers. Other features include always-on Internet connectivity via various wireless technologies.
The Core 2 Duo-based machine's small screen is a colour non-volatile e-ink display that continues to show content - email, calendar entries, eBooks, etc - even when the power's cut. The e-ink screen is mounted on a leather wrap-around cover which connects to the laptop through a dock connector that's also capable of hosting USB traffic.
There is no ink, yet this pen will write on virtually any type of paper! Its solid metal 'nib' consists of a metal alloy, that leaves a mark on most types of paper. If you use the sort of paper typically used in printers and photocopiers, the pen leaves a mark that looks as if it was made by a pencil. However the line will not smudge, and cannot be rubbed out.

With an awesome black case, an integrated AM/FM radio, touch-sensitive controls on the speakers and a remote control, an integrated iPod dock with charging capabilities, and 3D Stereo technology, it looks like the AudioStation will give the iPod Hi-Fi and Bose SoundDock a run for their money.
Affectionately naming it the CX913P, Samsung has released a 19 inch LCD with 6milisecond response time and a contrast ratio of 1,500:1. That’s pretty neat in itself, but makes for rather bland news. What is only marginally more interesting though, is the monitor’s ability to point itself in just about any angle, though a cleverly designed stand.
These puppies will set you back around £500 each - the perfect gift for those of us too busy playing World of Warcraft to bother with the cleaning. To justify the purchase just keep telling yourself that it's the equivalent of having a cleaner for an hour or two per week for a year.
The design of these new robots reminds me on stereo cassette players. The new Samsung vacuum robots have a cleaning speed of 0.4m/second. Both robots have a HEPA filters and can find the charging station for recharging when necessary.
Nothing we haven't seen before, but Plextor is getting into the Blu-ray burner game with their new PX-B900A. It's all like usual, with 2x speed, BD-R and BD-RE (rewritable) compatibility, and capacities of 25GB and 50GB. The drive also does the DVD-RAM and DVD±R/RW thing, including dual layer.
I can't believe how crisp and beautiful the screen is. Simply amazing. A little small, but still usable since it's got a great contrasty screen, and a pretty good backlight. A little tough to do thumbs-only typing, especially when you want to hit ALT-F4 to close a window or something.
