SlashGear Week in Review – Week 41 2008

, Oct 12th 2008 Discuss [0]

Laptops big and small have monopolized the headlines this week, with the most anticipation being Apple’s upcoming MacBook event on Tuesday October 14th.  SlashGear will be live-blogging the whole thing, so join us at http://Live.SlashGear.com at 10am PST.  Meanwhile the ‘Brick’ rumors of what Steve Jobs might be announcing keep on coming: we’ve seen water-jet cutting systems, $800 price-points and several purported photo leaks.  Of course, Apple are saying nothing until Tuesday; they’re too busy blaming NVIDIA for a spate of MacBook graphics failures.

, Oct 7th 2008 Discuss [1]

If you didn't read our interview with the Sleek Audio founders last week, or our review of the Sleek Audio SA6 in-ear monitor earphones on Monday, you might not know that the company's wireless music adapter went up for pre-order last week.  Sleek Audio have officially announced the adapter, which uses Kleer's lossless wireless technology to transmit CD-quality audio.

Sleek Audio SA6 In-Ear Monitor Earphones SlashGear Review

, Oct 6th 2008 Discuss [0]

If you read our interview article with the Sleek Audio founders last week, you’ll know that we’re excited about the upcoming wireless system based on Kleer’s lossless technology.  At the root of it all, though, are the SA6 earphones, promising flexibility in sound reproduction at the earbud itself, rather than relying on artificial equalizer tweaks.  SlashGear has been testing out the Sleek Audio SA6 earphones for the past few weeks, and we’ve hit pause just long enough for the full review.

SlashGear Week in Review – Week 40 2008

, Oct 5th 2008 Discuss [0]

Biggest news this week has been in gaming, with Nintendo announcing the latest iteration of their DS handheld.  The DSi introduces new multimedia features – for instance a 3-megapixel camera – and an even thinner body, at the expense of battery life.  Don’t get too excited, though; the US won’t see the DSi until “well into” 2009.

In netbooks, ASUS slipped in a few new models at both the low and high-end of the market, with the Eee PC 900HA and 904HA offering bargain 160GB storage while the S101 corners the more-fashionable (and expensive) end.  That’s a niche the ASUS N10 already occupies; that netbook ran the review gauntlet this week, proving “technologically clever” but simply too expensive.  ASUS – and MSI, whose Wind U90 was panned too – must be looking enviably at Gigabyte’s M912M convertible touchscreen netbook, which was good enough to pull a credit card from the wallet of one reviewer.

Sleek Audio developing Kleer audiophile wireless earphones

, Jun 11th 2008 Discuss [2]

Sleek Audio, an audio equipment manufacturer who are so convinced by their SA6 in-ear monitor headphones that they don't actually make anything else, have announced that they will be the next company to use Kleer's wireless audio technology.  Kleer's system, ostensibly a rival to Bluetooth A2DP, is special because of its ability to carry CD-quality audio despite ultra low power consumption.  The new Sleek implementation will also support Kleer's Listen In technology, which allows up to four users to hear the same source from a single transmitter.
