NEW SONY CAMCODER:
Prototype now, real thing in the autu
11th May 2010 10:55 GMT
Having introduced the Nex-3 and Nex-5 compact cameras as concept models back in February then.Sony is taking the same approach with a new interchangeable-lens camcorder.So, today we get the mock-up, and an indication that the real thing will arrive some time in the autumn.
The connection with the Alpha Nex series goes deeper still: the new AVCHD camcorder will use the same DSLR-quality APS image sensor as the Nex line does, and it will take their lenses to - plus regular Alpha DSLR lenses with a suitable adaptor.
"By combining these features," the company said, "Sony aims to market a camcorder capable of generating a variety of creative expressions in full HD quality."
We're all for generating creative expressions here on reghardware. ®
Sony Erisson smart phone
Sony Ericsson vivaz phone:
the latest Sony Ericsson's latest style phone certainly cuts a dash with its unique curvy shape. But its focus is on HD video capture, rather than just movie viewing, with its 8.1Mp stills camera also capable of recording moving images in 720p HD. With Wi-Fi, HSDPA 3G, A-GPS and social networking apps, the Vivaz adds up to much more than a mere fashion phone
It has a volume rocker, which doubles as a camera zoom, plus two dedicated buttons for both still and video cameras. There's a micro USB slot – yes, SE is steadily saying goodbye to its ill-starred FastPort – covered by a plastic grommet and a 3.5mm headphone jack tucked into the corner. On the back is the slightly recessed camera lens and LED flash set in a perfect circle. It feels comfy in the hand too, not big or heavy at 107 x 52 x 13mm and 97g, yet still feeling substantial.
APPLE MACINTOSH
THE APPLE COMPUTER:
They were pants. Of course, I didn't know this at the time. It's only now, having had the chance to play with Apple's latest MacBook Pro, that I realise that everything that came before it was so dreadfully ordinary.
Apple's latest series of MacBook Pro computers are available in three models according to screen size - 13in, 15in and 17in - and a restricted range of Intel processors. The product tested here is the mid-range model that Apple probably expects to sell in the greatest numbers: a 15in unit fitted with an Intel Core i5-540M (dual-core, four thread) processor running at 2.53GHz.
For this new range, Apple has almost completely dispensed with its curvy design legacy. Apart from its four rounded corners, the MacBook Pro is a straight-edged notebook in which right-angles are the fashion of the day. It's also much slimmer than I had imagined: indeed, it is just 5mm thicker than the innovative MacBook Air.
The 15.3in glossy widescreen display is surrounded by a flush bezel in jet black, with an iSight webcam embedded in the bezel above the screen. The 1440 x 900-pixel display is razor sharp and very easy on the eye.

NOKIA 6300 THE SLIM FIN:
The famous Finnish mobile manufacturer has been long expected to launch a new high-end, classic-look phone with state-of-the-art functional menu to substitute the enormously successful couple Nokia 6230 and Nokia 6230i. The first try in this sense came a year and a few months ago with the presentation of Nokia 6233. However, its rounded body was accepted rather coldly by common users. Until today, when we meet Nokia 6300, the model many proclaim to be the real successor of Nokia 6230/6230i. Reasons are numerous. Nokia 6300 has a modern slim look, not spoilt by unnecessary decorative elements, a highly functional menu, and brilliant keypad and display.
Nokia has also gone on a diet
Slim phones are fashionable these days. Quite understandable, isn’t it? Who would prefer to carry a device that fills up their pocket with an unpleasant bulge? Obviously, Nokia has also had to go on a diet as this new model is 6 mm thinner than Nokia 6233. Here are all its parameters: 106 x 44 x 12 mm. Nokia 6300 weighs merely 91g, which, given its steel plates, is another admirable achievement.
Nokia 6300 comes in a decent black & silver combination. Everything that is silver is made of steel. Black areas are made of glossy plastic material. The display and the functional part of the keypad are located inside a black frame that stands out over the surrounding surface a little. As a result of this, Nokia 6300 notably resembles Nokia 3230.
The phone construction benefits a lot from the significant amount of metal material used on it as these make it extremely solid. Nokia 6300 did not give out a single creak, not even under strong pressure. The battery cover fit in perfectly too. Yet, glossy materials have also been applied, which brings along inevitable drawbacks: fingerprints remain visible on almost the entire phone surface. And then if your hands tend to sweat excessively, you may not even manage to ever clean your mobile. Fingerprints are clearly seen on the keypad, the display, and all plates.
llumination alerts of all important events
Due to Nokia 6300’s slimness, its sides lack many control elements. The left side, in particular, is absolutely bare. On the right you will find a dual volume control button, only functional if pressed strongly or moved by one’s nail. The camera control button is not situated here, because the rear plate of the phone covers the sides.
NOKIA SMART PHONE
Currently the Xseries is composed of two completely different phones. The Nokia X6 is a touch phone running Symbian, and the X3 is an affordable Series 40 slider. It packs stereo speakers, excellent audio quality and a built-in FM radio antenna for a complete sonic experience. All right, we said affordable, so don’t go looking for top-notch gear beside the obvious full music package.
The Nokia X3 runs the Series 40 6th edition but it’s unlike any S40 handset we’ve seen before. For a brief, joyful moment, we thought Nokia have finally given in and added multitasking. The truth turned out to be different but still there were small steps taken in the right direction. And you should see what they’ve done with the Gallery – it’s only a notch bellow the S60 one.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves and let’s take a look at the Nokia X3 pros and cons.

GPS System
The Garmin 76CSX: Hot! GPS Systems And Accessories
GPS technology is still new in terms of public use and access. A marine GPS can be the lifeline for your voyage if you find yourself out in the middle of the high seas without a clue as to where you are going. It was just a few years ago that GPS systems appeared in the marketplace and to this day, it’s easier to find someone without GPS than with one. With a GPS, you can identify your exact coordinates based on a number of electronic calculations and come up with a strategy to get you back where you desire.
Many people out there do want to own one but have no idea which one to choose. There are so many models to choose from, and with most GPS systems costing hundreds of dollars, it’s not entirely unreasonable to be scared to make a decision. This is the reason why this list of some of the better systems out there has been compiled to help you come up with an informed choice on which is the best GPS system for you and your money. There many different types of GPS, which one is right for you.
Bug GPS is a powerful vehicle tracking device that utilizes the GPS (Global Positioning System) technology developed by the Department of Defense. With amazing accuracy, it gathers miles driven on a daily basis, maintains time for billing records and produces comprehensive reports on all vehicle travel activities. Bug GPS® Also provides your PC, smart-phone, or PC phone mapping programs with GPS navigation (not ‘live’ tracking).
Garmin GPSMAP 76CSx
This GPS system contains a great slot to plug in removable disks that contain all your map information. An even better feature is that this disk slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment so even when the weather is unfavorable, you won’t have to worry about your map data becoming corrupted or damaged.
Built to withstand the toughest of conditions, this GPS comes with a compass sensor and a sensor to determine barometric pressure in the air around you. This model is perfect for the ‘outdoorsy’ type of person who needs to know this information while traveling through the wilderness.
The advantage to a portable GPS, besides actually helping you find your location, is that it is small enough to not be a bothersome bit of luggage when you leave for camping trips. Instead of worrying about finding extra cargo space for your enormous GPS contraption, you simply slip the GPS in your pocket until it is needed.
