MobiBlue Cube 3 – even smaller-er

James Allan Brady, Apr 8th 2008 Discuss [0]

This is the successor to the Cube 2 and will hopefully have a better user interface as that was one of CNet’s main complaints of the Cube 2. It still has the OLED screen, FM Tuner, and 2GB of storage space. This player also has support for MP3 and WMA formats which makes it PlaysForSure compatible. Other than the relatively low storage capacity, possibly difficult to navigate UI, there is the $99 price that you’ll have to get over. Read The Full Story

Klegg Electronics Genesis V1803 Camcorder reviewed – not so great

James Allan Brady, Apr 7th 2008 Discuss [1]

This digital camcorder from Klegg is like the Swiss Army knife of digital camcorders. However much like the knife, it can do a lot of things, but isn’t particularly well versed at any one of them. This particular digital camcorder can record video, capture still images, play video games, read ebooks, play music, take voice notes, and can’t manage to do any of them spectacularly.

Samsung NV 24HD digital camera – packed full of everything you’d expect from a high end camera

James Allan Brady, Mar 28th 2008 Discuss [1]

For starters, it has HD video capabilities as well as a 10.2MP image sensor. All that is recorded through a 24mm wide Schneider lens with a 3.6x optical zoom, so far this camera seems pretty mediocre, but I assure you its not. Read The Full Story

Philips AJL308 – now the big dogs are in the Digital Picture Frame market

James Allan Brady, Mar 21st 2008 Discuss [1]

Digital Picture Frames were a dream, and a dumb one. This one isn’t much different other than its slightly more attractive, and will probably last marginally longer than some knockoff branded one. Read The Full Story

Netronix EB-100 and EB-300 could offer up some price relief on the e-ink front

James Allan Brady, Mar 12th 2008 Discuss [1]

These two new eBook readers coming out of Taiwan should start offering up some better prices and more competition to the Kindle and other players like it thus driving down the price. Personally I’m not much of a reader, which is kind of funny all things considered, so this whole market is lost on me, but I like the technology behind it. Read The Full Story

James Allan Brady, Mar 11th 2008 Discuss [0]

Sony GIGA JUKE is a set of products with the goal of offering up the benefits of hard drive storage for your music without the use of the PC.

LG Glimmer touchscreen slider coming to Alltel – too bad it couldn’t have hit a better carrier

James Allan Brady, Feb 27th 2008 Discuss [30]

It has a 2.8-inch capacitive touchscreen and a menu similar to that of the PRADA cell phones. In fact, save for the slide out number pad, it kind of looks like a more generic version of the PRADA phone. Read The Full Story

Sony E020F NW series MP3 players follow the KISS principle

James Allan Brady, Feb 20th 2008 Discuss [0]

In case you’ve never heard of it, its an acronym for “Keep It Simple Stupid”, essentially it means don’t over complicate things. Sony has done just that with these MP3 players, they work almost identically to a flash drive, you plug them directly into the USB port on your computer, drag and drop your audio files, and it charges as the same time.
