Joybook Lite U101 from BenQ

-
BenQ decided to launch its own Atom-powered netbook this weekend during the IT Month in Taiwan and it's called the Joybook Lite U101. At first glance the Joybook Lite U101 might not seem that different to every other model already out there, but BenQ is the first to offer a 16:9 display on a netbook.
The rest of the specs are fairly standard for netbooks these days, an Atom N270 CPU, Intel 945GSE chipset, 1GB of DDR2 memory (512MB for Linux versions), a range of hard drive options including 80-160GB mechanical drives, as well as 4-16GB SSD options.
Other features include built-in 802.11b/g WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR, 10/100Mbit Ethernet, a 1.3Megapixel Webcam, a 4-in-1 memory card reader, a D-sub connector, three USB 2.0 ports and a headphone and mic jack. The Joybook Lite U101 weighs in at 1.1kg and measures 258x189x32mm (WxHxD)
For price €398 (US$503/£331) you get a model with 1GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive and Windows XP Home, as well as a 3-cell battery that BenQ claims will give you 4H of battery life. An extended 6-cell battery will also be available as a cost option. Speaking of options, a model with HSDPA/HSUPA 3G connectivity will also be available at a later stage. (via Fudzilla)

If the zoom on your iPad 2′s camera wasn’t enough then how about adding Brando’s iPad 2 Telescope to your iPad? It’s not exactly the most conspicuous looking addon but then again neither are most zoom lenses. For $26 what you are getting is a casing that attaches to the back of your iPad 2 which also features a slot where you would attach the telescopic lens which is positioned just above the camera lens. The telescopic lens will allow you to shoot photos in zoom mode of up to 6 times which will be on top of the iPad 2′s native camera zoom. ( ubergizmo )

Double Research & Development Co. has come up with a spanking new input device that it calls “amenbo”, where this unique device is capable of sensing movements and pressure of individual fingers. Complete hand movements can be directly input into the computer, from where it will be utilized in a range of applications that require complete hand recognition. Here’s what the manufacturer has to say about it, “We put a mouse sensor under each fingertip, and can input the coordinates for each finger as well as the downward pressure of each finger. This means that the actual hand motions are being input to the PC. For example, it is possible for the PC to receive the finger data for however many fingers are needed for an action, operating it with one or both hands.” All fingers are all linked by a flexible printed mesh base which is constructed from stretchable material in order to accommodate a variety of hand sizes. An obvious area where this input device will see action would be to

Cocoon Collection's Laptop Bags

Now here’s something interesting in the computer bags/cases department. A company called “Cocoon Innovations” will be introducing a new lineup of bags next week at CES 2009 called the “Cocoon” Collection. The collection will feature a complete lineup of laptop computer bags, totes, portfolios, and accessories for the digital lifestyle. What makes the bags unique is a propriety feature on the interior of each bag called the “The Grid”. The Grid is a proprietary “universal, elastic organization system” for “customized digital device storage.”. I’m guessing it’s some sort of stretchable durable plastic that molds to the device – but it’s simply a guess. [ www.krunker.com ] VISIT THE SITE...
