Motorola DH02: Moto's Third Mobile TV In As Many Months

OK, not to punch the weakling when he's down on all fours, but this is quite a tale of WTF: First, at CES, Moto unveils a plan for the DH01 Mobile TV with MicroSD card reader and DVB-H for terrestrial reception (where available). Then, it upgrades to the DH01n, adding GPS and a Tele Atlas map set for turn-by-turn driving. Finally, Moto decides what the thing really needs is a cellphone inside. Today Moto announces the DH02, all of the above goodness plus HSDPA connectivity and a touchscreen interface with "intuitive click, drag and scroll icon-based menus" to boot. (No video or photo of that, however.) All I can say is, good luck to you, Moto, whatever the hell it is you're doing. [Motorola]

Motorola Updates Its Mobile TV With Navigator

Motorola's DH01 mobile TV, above, seen at CES last month, has been updated already. The beleaguered electronics company added a GPS navigation system to the DVR (and an "n" to the model number) and took its DH01n to Barcelona's MWC to show off. It still uses DVB-H format, though, which ain't exactly popular over here. [Motorola]

Motorola DH01 Mobile Video Player Does Live TV and DVR Clips, Hopes Mobile TV Will Get Better

The Skinny: The DH01 has a 4.3-inch screen (but how thin is it?), a five-minute memory buffer for pausing live mobile TV, DVR playback from SD or MultiMediaCard cards and four hours of playback time. The Catch: It's dedicated—who's gonna carry around a separate player if they can probably get the same live TV on their cellphone? Also, the mobile TV standard it uses, DVB-H, ain't exactly common in these parts. [Reuters]

The hurricane season cometh, and the DH1 Disaster House is one man's solution to the problem of homelessness—only problem is that it costs and arm and a leg—and that is usually not an option if you have lost everything to one of Nature's bad moods. More »

JVC Surround Headphone Adapter

No need to get yourself a honking new set of headphones for surround sound listening, just check out the new JVC SU-DH1 surround sound headphone adapter, which uses Dolby Headphone technology to give you 5.1-channel surround sound through any two-channel headphones. Weighing only 3.5 oz, it uses 2 AA batteries and can connect to a laptop, portable DVD player, handheld video game system or any other portable product you may have with you. And the Dolby technology gives you virtual surround from anything encoded with Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Digital Surround EX, DTS-ES and MPEG-2 AAC—even Dolby Pro Logic II. With three different modes, you can replicate a smaller room, a larger, more typical listening area or a theatre or concert hall type environment. Good show. Comes with an analog input cord and an optical digital mini jack for use with an optional connecting cord. Out in March for $130.
