Universal remotes are still all the rage, right? Well, SMK-Link is either hoping that's still the case, or that there's still someone out there who hasn't consolidated all of their home entertainment remotes down into one, fancy-looking device. Of course, there's always the little fact that this remote, the Blu-Link, actually controls your PlayStation 3, too. And, according to SMK-Link, they're the first company to do it, while also including other home entertainment devices.
ASRock ION 330-BD Nettop Review
By Ewdison Then on Monday, Aug 31st 2009 No CommentsWhere netbooks go, their deskbound nettop brethren eventually follow, and as NVIDIA’s Ion GPU has made its impact on the graphics capabilities of budget ultraportables, so it has its sights set on compact desktops too. ASRock and NVIDIA worked together on the ION 330-BD, a Blu-ray toting nettop that pairs Intel’s Atom processor with NVIDIA’s ION platform, and sent one over to prove to SlashGear that just because the footprint is small, it doesn’t mean the performance is too.
Medion Akoya “The Touch” X9613 touchscreen all-in-one [Video]
By Chris Davies on Friday, Aug 28th 2009 No CommentsMedion have unveiled a new all-in-one PC, the oddly named Akoya “The Touch” X9613. Based around a 24-inch multitouch-capable touchscreen, rather than stuff the X9613 full of nettop components Medion have taken the far more sensible route and used Intel’s 2.0GHz Core 2 Quad Q9000 CPU with 4GB of RAM, NVIDIA’s GeForce GT 240M graphics card and a Blu-ray drive. Newgadgets were on hand to grab a live demo video, which you can see after the cut.

Addonics offers up new portable Blu-ray drive with eSATA interface
By Shane McGlaun on Wednesday, Aug 26th 2009 No CommentsI learned the hard way when I used my netbook at CES back in January that in the business world, many people still give out information on CDs or DVDs. That is a big problem for netbook users who lack optical drives. I’ve also wondered a few times why users would bother with 720p capable netbooks without a Blu-ray drive.
