LG announced their Scarlet LG7000 HDTV today, a 1080p LCD with an intelligent backlighting system that, through reacting to ambient light conditions, can save up to 69.5-percent of the power usually required. A 50,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, TruMotion for reduced picture blur and 24P Real Cinema for high-definition film playback all add up to a response time of just 2.7ms.
LG unveiled their new netbook, the X110, at IFA 2008 today, and while as expected it’s based on the MSI Wind, the company has added lashings of connectivity that push up both usability and price. That includes a choice of built-in 3G HSPA and GPS modules.
Fujitsu have today finally confirmed their netbook, the AMILO Mini Ui 3520, at IFA 2008.

As previewed, the Mini Ui has interchangeable lid covers with five colors available from launch, together with a clear cover for you to sandwich photos in the lid.
