Sony has publicly stated its aim to have 90-percent of its product range networked by 2010, and that moreover this inter-connectivity will happen either automatically or with a single button press. Speaking at a recent event, Sony President and COO Stan Glasgow told journalists that the VAIO range would be an obvious focus point for the development, likely featuring new software that would make connectivity more straightforward, but that other products such as wireless-enabled e-books would also feature.
Tablet PC manufacturer Motion has updated its handle-blessed range of C5 and F5 slates with new storage options, accessories and mobile broadband. The C5, which Motion describe as a Mobile Clinical Assistant (MCA) intended primarily for health workers, now has a choice of 80GB traditional hard-drive or a 32GB SSD, together with optional EV-DO.
How many of you have seen the movie Top Gun? Now, of those people, how many of you had aspirations of one day flying your own F-14 Tomcat? If you answered yes to the first question but no to the second, you’re lying. Everyone wanted to fly a jet after that movie. That, and buy a motorcycle. Well since most of us didn’t actually live out that dream, we’ll just have to settle for downloading the movie’s theme song on Guitar Hero III.
I’m pretty sure it’s been a little while since I’ve managed to write up anything from Strapya. Who is known for their very odd cellphone accessories.
Well, at least this odd case is environmentally friendly. It’s actually made out of used tire tubes, for once they have created a case that isn’t utterly terrifying or so beyond geeky that even I have an issue with it. Which says a lot, because seriously, I like things made out of old circuit boards.
This chic little watch looks like it’d be sporting the bare minimum on extra features and is just meant to be cute. However, it actually is featuring more extras than the bulky watches usually meant for the outdoorsy types.
We are all guilty of having our chargers lying about and typically they stay plugged into the outlet even when they’re not in use. That is unless you’ve already caught wind that it’s actually bad to do that.
I sadly, actually caught wind that it was bad and still have stuck to my habits. Mostly because I have a tendency to lose it otherwise. Well it turns out that there is more proof that it could be best to unplug the charger. That is according to a Natural Philosophy Professor, David J.C. MacKay at the University of Cambridge.
Lately we’ve been seeing more and more games for the PS3 require a hard drive installation to play. It’s become such commonplace now that no one is really making a big deal out of it. Honestly, it’s not such a big deal for PS3 owners because they can install a large hard drive on the cheap. Xbox 360 owners, on the other hand, aren’t so lucky. Which is probably why there will be a large number of people upset by Soul Valibur IV.
So how long after the announcement of Rock Band 2 did you think it would take for someone to leak a partial set list? Turns out we needed only a few days. The good folks over at G4 were kind enough to show a brief screen of the upcoming title with 11 tracks listed.
Are you one of those gamers that loves to tweak every setting of your PC, right down to the fan speed? It’s understandable really, if you have your fans running too low there’s a risk of overheating your system. On the other hand, if they are running too high, your PC creates more noise than is necessary. NZXT has come out with the perfect solution for you with their Sentry LX fan controller.
Canton’s latest speakers aren’t as discrete as Yamaha’s new YSP-3050, perhaps, but they’re likely to offer a whole lot more performance if you can stomach the extra room clutter. Saying that, Canton are certainly trying to minimize that too: the Chrono 501 has a new, low-profile design as well as pricing reduced by 30-percent over the company’s more expensive Ergo range.
Despite the cut, you still get Canton’s proprietary ADT-25 aluminum-manganese dome tweeter, as well as a 6-inch aluminum bass driver good for response as low as 40Hz. It’s available in black wood-grained finish with a gloss black front baffle and aluminum accents, or an all-silver finish.
