Memory Stick PRO: finally, some good news

There wasn’t all that much to cheer about when Sony unveiled Memory Stick PRO last January, the higher capacity successor to the Memory Stick. Apart from a few exceptions, the new format isn’t backwards compatible with anything already out there that takes a Memory Stick. But despite that, there is a small amount of good…

The new iMac: Not worth the upgrade?

The Mac SpeedZone doesn’t think the new 1GHz iMacs are worth the extra cash, or at least that there’s enough of a difference in performance between them and the older 800MHz models to justify the difference in price ($500). Read

Sony’s bind

Speaking of Sony, the Economist has a piece on the company and how it’s banking its future on the convergence of PCs and home entertainment.

More on Sony’s new Network Walkman

It wasn’t clear whether or not the NW-MS70D, that new Network Walkman portable digital audio player from Sony could play MP3s or not, but reader Shuichi Akito writes in that it’s not; it only plays ATRAC3 and ATRAC3Plus.

Wireless portable keyboard for Pocket PCs

Review of a new wireless portable keyboard for Pocket PCs called the Pocketop.

Is it finally time for the videophone?

We’ve heard this before, but Steve Kovsky over at ZDNet thinks that videophonmes are finally going to catch on. Whether or not you agree with him, there is one very interesting tidbit of information to be gleaned from his column: The “#” key on your telephone is actually a holdover from AT&T’s ill-fated videophone plans.…
