Sunday, December 21st, 2008

You thought the mini video projector of 3M was cool? Well, wait and see what follows! Here is the CV-MP01, another compact video projector that offers globally the same features, but with a size of only 40 x 57 x 59mm with a weight of 90g. However, the CV-MP01 is a standard LCOS projector, with a LED backlight with a lifespan of 10,000 hours, and a 4:3 image ratio and a VGA resolution.

I don’t know if you are possessor of such a device … but personally I have one, and I still can not see with how to use it, or when to use it … So when will you use a LCOS video projector?

The Lenovo IdeaPad S9 released in U.S.

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

The Lenovo IdeaPad S9 is available in U.S., making it an alternative for those who wanted the S10. Like its cousin, the Lenovo IdeaPad S9 has a 1.6GHz Intel Atom processor, but has a smaller screen and less storage space. In addition, you will not have Windows, because it will run on Linux, so we wondered why anyone would buy this netbook for a price of approximately $349 when you can have much more with the IdeaPad S10. There is something for every taste, I suppose. The features include a 4GB SSD, 512MB RAM and a 1024 x 600 resolution.

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

Buffalo has released the new RUF2-KL USB flash drive which has 16GB of storage space and a thickness of only 8mm.

WX-LP100: New wireless speakers by Panasonic

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

Here are the WX-LP100 wireless speakers by Panasonic. Indeed, these are not conventional speakers for the general public but rather for schools or for small events needing a wireless system. Furthermore, these speakers cost more than 125,000 yen each (around $1,400), I think that Mr “Everyone” will have some difficulties to invest in this new speakers.

However, for specifications, the wireless speakers offers a maximum power of 10W at 4? and offers a frequency response of 100Hz – 15 kHz.
