Samsung's Printers will Make you Want to Have Hot Desk Sex with Them

Samsung has made its new printers look like works of art. Both models are a deliciously glossy piano black and, while the 11-cm thick ML1630 (above) is a monochrome laser printer, the SCX-4500 is multifunctional. Both of them rock blue LED displays and buttonless sensors, and the custom-designed semi-auto docking slide-out cassette means that paper jams are easily dealt with. Specs are after the jump.

Latest by robo: Samsung makes great laser printers. I have two of them (one B&W and one color), and they have been extremely reliable. I would never go back to ink jets. more »

Samsung's SP-A800B 1080p DLP Projector Perfect for Death Star's Theater Room

We bet Stormtroopers wouldn't mind crowding around Samsung's latest 1080p projector, the SP-A800B. It makes use of TI's newest DLP chip, delivering a 24fps film mode and a 10,000:1 contrast ratio. No price or street date, but since it's an "ultra high-end model targeted to the content creation industry and home theater," we're guessing the price will suit the audience. Two more snaps and full specs after the jump.

LG Bumping All LCD Monitors Fabbed After Sept. 1 to 5000:1 Contrast Ratio

LG's contrasting up all of its LCD monitors produced after Sept. 1, pushing them all to a contrast ratio of 5000:1. They're all sporting some proprietary tech dubbed "Digital Fine Contrast" that supposedly "dynamically controls controls brightness." Flagshipping the 5000:1 contrast goodness are two new monitors: the L227WT (pictured because it's the sexier of the two) and L206WU. More »

Palm-Sized Projector from LG Goes with Anything, Rocks the Color

LG used IFA to announce the arrival of their first palm-sized projector, the HS101 - which, judging by their comments, they're pretty pleased with. "Industry experts told us it would be impossible to make such a small projector with a 2,000:1 contrast ratio and 100 ANSI lumen output," said LG's head of LCD TV Division. "We've obviously proven them wrong with the HS101." More details and the press release below. More »

Sony Rolls Out Two New Video Walkmen, Minus ATRAC (NWZ-s610 and NWZ810)

ATRAC is on the fast track for extinction. Sony's closing its Sony's music store and it's been dumped from their two newest video Walkmen, the NWZ-A810 and NWZ-S610, which are all about an "open platform." They support secure WMA, non-secure AAC and MP3, JPEG, AVC (H.264/AVC) Baseline Profile and MPEG-4 video codecs. They're also PlaysForSure certified. Woohoo. Full rundown of both players post-jump.
We've already seen the 8GB model of the NWZ-A810. It's available in 2 ($140), 4 ($180) and 8GB ($230) sizes with black, white, pink and silver paintjobs, though silver's only available at the Sony Style store. More »
