With the success of their Alpha A100 until now, Sony decided to upgrade and bring their latest DSLR on the market. Sony Alpha A200 is not very different from its predecessor and the big difference is the 10.2 megapixel sensor. You operate it thanks to a 2.7-inch LCD display, has the same Carl Zeiss lens, optical stabilization technology (Super SteadyShot) and a Li-ion battery with about 750 pictures autonomy.

Two models will be available from February. First one is a 18-70 mm F3.5-F5.6 and should sell for $700 while the other one is a 75-300 mm F4.5-F5.6 and will hit the shelves for $900. Preorder them starting from tomorrow if you can’t wait for a Sony Alpha A200 review before having your hands on.

Acer announced today at CES their latest desktop replacer, the new Aspire 7720. It has a 17-inch display, Core 2 Duo processors at 1.66GHz, 2GB of RAM a powerful 256MB GeForce 8400M GS graphics card and a 250GB hard drive.

Though it’s not the fastest processor, I think the Dolby Home Theater technology for better sound and the $1,049 price are good reasons to buy one. It’s already available from what I understood and though am I an not sure how much it weights (a big factor for me choosing a laptop) the price tickles my credit card to get one.
