Sony DR-BT140QP - Bluetooth Headphones

Posted Monday, June 16th, 2008 by Alex Ion

Sony DR-BT140QP - Bluetooth Headphones

Sony DR-BT140QP are the new wireless Bluetooth hedphones the company has recently built. These are smart headphones or at least that’s what the $138.89 price tells me and the fact that it support Bluetooth 2.0 and A2DP/AVRCP/HFP/HSP profiles. It has a frequency response of 16Hz-24,000Hz, 30mm in diameter driver unit, a built-in lithium battery for 12 hours of continuous use and should be available in black, pink silver and white from July 25th, when pre-orders start.

I’m not really a fan of Bluetooth headphones and to be honest,  but I’ll have to at least try this one before telling you if it’s good or not. Sony has a brand to defend, so this better be great, not good.

Glass Keyboard with Camers instead of Keys

Posted Friday, June 13th, 2008 by Alex Ion

Glass keyboard concept

I’m pretty sure this concept won’t get to see the light, it’s good to see one every once in a while. Designer Kong Fanwen came up with what seems to be the ideal keyboard and though it’s not the most practical I’ve ever seen, the “No-key keyboard” concept sure looks great. It uses the latest motion capture technology to watch your fingers’ movement and keystrokes, because this little one has cameras instead of keys.

The things I would enjoy most about Kong’s concept keyboard is that it is waterproof (and I can spill tea or coffee) and comes with some snazzy lighting options to find those non-existent keys in the dark.

Best deals for CD-R/DVD-R electronics

Posted Tuesday, May 27th, 2008 by Alex Ion

I don’t usually go online to buy electronics but I had a very pleasant experience with Shop4tech a few weeks ago. I asked left and right where I could buy a cheap xD Type Picture card for my Fuji digital camera and I ended up on their site. It was a great price, I agree but it’s then when I noticed that these guys are really professionals when it comes to selling CD and DVD media.

They have over 500,000 customers and counting to offer them a CD/DVD range of products that include burners, duplicators, printers and cases all for very good prices.

It all started with me paying the invoice, which I failed many times but their support was great. They called me to make sure everything is all right and advised how to continue and make sure everything settles. Another thing that made me choose them instead of other online shops, is that they offer free shipping, a very user-friendly and extremely secure website.

I really advise you to take a look no matter if you’re an individual, corporate or governmental client and get back to us if you like what you see. Will be waiting for your comments.

Dr. Bott T3 USB 2.0 hub

If you’re one of those that need a few USB ports to power up or connect all sorts of devices but you don’t have enough, I guess you need a hub. Maybe the Dr. Bott T3 USB 2.0 hub can help you with three ports for a mere $20. It has three LEDs that shows which ports are used and a fourth LED to tell you when the hub is powered. The Dr. Bott T3 USB 2.0 hub comes in silver and white and would look great with your MacBook Air.via Zdnet

Super-Slim USB Mouse

Posted Monday, March 24th, 2008 by Alex Ion

Super slim mouse

I am one of those people that want their mouse to be tiny and comfortable. It was hard for me to settle with a slim mouse but after a few days I knew it’s what I wanted for a long time. Anyway, enough with my experience. Here is a super-slim USB mouse that is only 0.94-inches wide with some weird features: the rear is the right click while the front is the left click.So unless you have sausages instead of fingers and your palm isn’t the size of a baseball pitcher glove, for $11 this could be a great mouse to take with you when you’re traveling.

Gamers around the world with no budget for a SLI system should be happy to know that NVIDIA released a new line up of graphic cards and the first to be announced is NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT that offers the best performance for the $189 price it’s going to cost.

NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT

GeForce 9600 GT is an upgraded version of the 8600 GT, that improves the core speed from 540MHz to 650MHz while the memory clock speed went up from 1.4 GHz to 1.8 GHz and doubles the onboard stream processors to 64. It will ship with 512MB of video memory and dual dual-link DVI video outputs and should be already available today.

This is a great solution for gamers that can’t spend that much on a graphic card.

Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 and 7000

Posted Tuesday, February 5th, 2008 by Alex Ion

Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 7000

I remember how we switched from ball-based mouse to the optical mouse and then the laser model. Today Microsoft managed to amaze me, once again, with their latest wireless laser mouse models, 6000 (left picture) and 7000 (right picture).

Microsoft WLM 6000 is more portable and has a 2.4GHz USB receiver while WLM 7000 is less portable mainly because it uses rechargeable batteries. Both “mice” use Microsoft’s HD Lasers and the latter comes with a horizontal charging dock in case your batteries run low. Oh, did I mention the Vista friendly buttons?

Prices are $50 for WLM 6000 and $70 for WLM 7000.

It does exactly what it’s supposed to, Wireless USB, but we don’t have a price for it yet. Not even availability.Source
