Samsung X120, X420, and X520 With CULV Get Unveiled

, Sep 4th 2009 Discuss [0]

The announcements just keep coming and coming. It looks like Samsung has gone ahead and introduced a new line up of X-series notebooks, offering up a degree of mobility that Samsung says has a lot to do with that battery life. We'd have to agree. There's not much mobility in having a 3-cell battery in a notebook, when you can only be out and about for a couple hours before you need to be tethered to a wall outlet.

, Aug 23rd 2009 Discuss [0]

Here we go again with another week in review for your perusal. A mystery Android-powered MID tipped up this week looking very much like those renderings of the Apple tablet to my eyes. It's cool to see android showing up on so many devices. Logitech unveiled an update to the coolest racing wheel ever, the G25, called simply enough the G27.
