New announcements regarding new DisplayLink products are coming in at a fairly alarming rate, and I must say, this is one of the few technologies out now that deserves all the attention its getting. The latest addition is what I believe is a first for DisplayLink, InFocus, maker of projectors from both the high and low end and everything in between, is going to start including DisplayLink tech in their future projectors.

‘art’ Stories
InFocus integrating DisplayLink technology – DisplayLink is growing at an alarming rate
Gigabyte Roll Pad passive notebook cooler – makes me hungry for California Roll
Basically, what this is is a giant heat sink for the bottom of your notebook. It attracts the heat from the bottom of your notebook, and due to the metal it’s made out of, is able to dissipate the heat faster than your notebook or your lap.
Laptop Hideaway from Belkin – nice for home users of notebooks
Basically this is a somewhat rigid bag that doesn’t close, but it holds your laptop, accessories, and power cords and keeps them out of the way without looking obscene. It would go perfect next to your bed, recliner, wherever you are usually laptoping.
Podcast Studio by Belkin – for all your mobile podcasting needs
This device is rather amazing, it allows you to record your podcasts and interviews on the fly, directly to your iPod. Then it automatically syncs, and can even auto upload, that content the next time you sync your iPod.
Urban Tool holster kind of makes you look like a tool
So these bags are designed in various wacky shapes and sizes primarily to simulate a gun holster (at least from what I’ve seen that’s what I get). Except instead of carrying firearms and ammunition, they carry your useful gadgets, ID, things of that nature.
ThermalTake Cases – can make even a 386 look badass
They have a new XaserVI Mx case that is a mid-tower version of the amazing XaserVI. They’ve kept the whole thing covered in mesh metal grills, filled with fans, and organized so that the GPU(s), CPU(s), and HDD(s) all have their own path of air flow for optimal cooling. There is tool-free installation of everything except the motherboard and power supply, and the mid-tower size will look a little better on top of your desk.
Asus EcoBook – get wood
Apparently this notebook is part of some sort of new green initiative over at Asus and is made from bamboo. I must say myself, it looks simply amazing.
Massive Software – showing off early SkyNet prototypes
Massive software is at CeBIT this year, now you might be wondering why we are writing about a software company, that would be because they have decided to start applying their talents to robots. In fact, their display has a robot showing off their new AI software that allows the robot to intelligently learn and change his reaction to the same stimuli if need be.
So basically, we need to start finding the real John Connor now, or we’re all screwed. The robot (or the software, or both) is called Zeno.

Green Cell eco-friendly battery design – can’t we all just standardize our rechargeable batteries?
Its just a concept, but it’s a damned good one offering up a way to significantly decrease the number of batteries thrown away each year. The basic idea is that we get all the device manufacturers to start using one (or two) standardized batteries.

Asus Xonar DX soundcard – has 7.1, low SNR, only thing stopping Creative monopoly
Asus is well-known for a lot of things, their soundcards not among them, but that might be about to change. They just recently started manufacturing these little buggers, and I don’t know personally how they sound, but specs wise they seem fairly on par with most of Creative’s offerings.

Aliph Jawbone Yves Behar Limited Editions – when a $120 headset isn’t smug enough
Instead of the mesh-metal exterior their predecessors had these limited edition Jawbones are designed by Yves Behar and come in Black, White, and Copper. Each design also has a title, Dirty Talk, Trash Talk, and Sweet Talk respectively.

IP Donor Card – now all your ideas can be donated, to the public domain
Due to the horrible state of affairs of the copyright laws, no one can use your IP (intellectual property) for 70 years after your death. That means if you’ve copyrighted or patented part of a good idea that you were working on, no one else can work on it for 70 years.
