So Kensington has come out with what we think is the first ExpressCard reader – which handles seven memory card formats. Avialble at the end…

Two Kensington Bluetooth Rodents

Ladies like computers too, but they have special needs – according to Kensington. Most importnatly, their portable input devices must be pink, like the Si 750m LE. It’s nearly identical to the crude, beerbelly-lugging Si 750m for the less-fiar sex except for the pinky accent and a modifed grips for ladies’ delicate hands. The Si…

When we tested the JBL Radial iPod speaker dock, our jaws dropped at its crispy-clean power and solid sound. Now the Radial has a little sister, the JBL Radial Micro that’s also iPod compatible as well as a slide show player you can hook up to a TV. And guess what? It sounds like the…

Chesnut Hill George iPod Sound System With Funky Remote

We’re here live at Digital Experience and there’s a ridiculous amount of stuff to digest, but the George iPod stereo system from Chestnut Hill certainly caught my eye. The main thing here is that the front faceplate thing detaches and acts as a remote. More pics within? You bet. Better still, you can hook it…

Treo 750 Hands-On

If you’re still curious about the Treo 750 even after the review and video, here’s some shots of WM phone hands-on. The UI looks a little different from standard WM5 phones, but we chalk that up to some Palm customization. https://gizmodo.com/reviewed-cingular-treo-750-verdict-good-but-theres-226804

The Vo200 Bluetooth Internet Phone is designed to fit into and charge from a PC Card slot in a laptop. (Sorry, Apple MacBook fans.)

Casio’s Big-zoomin’ slim fittin’ digicam

Slim cams with internally-zooming, nonprotruding lenses are nothing new. But Casio kicks it up a notch by squeezing a 7X (38mm – 266mm) zoomer into the one-inch thick Exilim Hi-Zoom EX-V7. Lots of other goodies are inside, too. In addition to the anti-shake chip that it’s been using to (somewhat successfully) process blur out of…

Here is another concept from Fujitsu that will probably never see the light of day. Referred to as the Sideshow, essentially it’s a (Vista, duh) media pad for your notebook that doesn’t require you to flip it open, revealing your Barnie/pornographic/Barnie pornographic wallpaper to the world. Standard navigational buttons can scroll through you music/movie collection,…
