MediaREADY Flyboy PMP

Just another PMP? Sure, but this one, created by Video Without Boundaries (not related to Doctors Without Waiting Rooms), has a USB 2.0 link so you and all your Flyboy friends can share media. Everything else is pretty standard MPEG4/MP3/RealMedia(!) playback, audio and video recording via RCA jacks, and a nice, twee size. Packed inside…

JumpSuit Shuffle

PodGear, makers of the Shuffle Station, have expanded their line of vinyl iPod condoms by creating the JumpSuit Shuffle. https://gizmodo.com/podgears-shufflestation-35154 I’m extremely partial to the fleshy pink model. It looks like sweet candy. JumpSuit Shuffle protects iPod shuffle [PlaylistMag]

Microsoft is expanding the reach of its instant messaging platform (casually referred to as ‘MSN’) to more mobile devices, including RIM’s BlackBerry platform. So just to reiterate and clarify: if you have a BlackBerry, you should be getting an MSN client soon. Otherwise, move along. Microsoft Expands Messaging, Partners with RIM [Reuters]

Hidamari No Tami Special Edition

In celebration of selling 3 million units, Tomy will be releasing a special discounted edition of their “Hidamari no Tami.” With a 300 yen discount, the unit comes to 714 yen (about $7 USD). When trying to find out what the thing does, I learned that it just sits there and bobs its head under…

SUVi DLA7000 Full HD Projector

SUVi Corporation is all set to release their “DLA7000” full HD D-ILA projector next month for around 4,500,000 yen. Only 100 of these will be produced per year. The specs aren’t too crappy (and I’d hope not, for $45K), with support for all HD signals up to 1080p and a contrast ratio of 2,000:1. Product…

KDDI Launches “EZ Book Land”

au is all set to launch their “EZ Book Land!” e-book service in Japan, hoping to breathe new life into the dying market. I seem to recall e-books failing on pretty much all fronts, but given most of us have our mobile phones close at any given moment, this may prove to be a better…

Fujitsu BIBLO NX90L/W Sonoma Notebook

Coming right after the desktop announcement from Fujitsu is the same thing for notebooks. Of interest in their new notebook line is the “BIBLO NX90L/W” costing around 340,000 yen. This may be a tad expensive for a consumer-level notebook, but it features the new Sonoma platform for great justice. And a bizarre feature of this…

Fujitsu DESKPOWER TX90L/D

Fujitsu’s DESKPOWER TX now earns the title of “desktop with largest integrated LCD,” if there is such a thing. At 32″, the screen of the DESKPOWER TX90L/D is far larger than others in its class. I’m pretty disappointed in the resolution, though, at a mere 1360 x 768. I might add that the TX90L/D is…

NEC N840 Cameraphone Reviewed (Verdict: Solid With a Nice Camera)

The NEC N840, which we mentioned in November, is a big 2-megapixel cameraphone not yet available on American shores. It’s quite beefy and underpowered but the camera and reception are excellent, according to MobileBurn. https://gizmodo.com/nec-n940-and-n840-24614 It’s nice to see that the phone has an externally accessible Mini-SD storage slot. That’s the one thing that saves…

X2 Stylebook: Laptops with Color-Coordinated Bags

I’ve got no opinion on the overall quality of the upcoming X2 Stylebook from a computing standpoint—it looks like a pretty decent, if pedestrian laptop to me—but I am loving the branding idea. It’s one for the ladies, but instead of just making them pretty colors, they’re also selling matching bags and purses that complement…

European PSP Launch Slipping Again?

The Register is reporting that the PSP might be pushed back yet again in the UK, despite missing its original launch in March.

Mvisto Pocket DivX Player Reviewed (Verdict: Fantastic)

I4U has a review on the Mvisto DivX Player. Very similar indeed to the Wigobyte Mvolt-100 Media Flash we mentioned last week, it lacks the Mvolt’s soft, supple curves but includes a 40GB hard drive. (It may very well be an OEM derivative of the Wigobyte device, actually.) The Mvisto excels in playing back DivX…

There are a few odd design decisions, including the addition of 4x PCI Express slots which are rarely, if ever, used. A Hard Core Gaming Motherboard—DFI…

Mice Design ‘Wine Tastings’

So this is really old news, but I thought it was double-cool. Not only do I like the idea of mice shape “wine-tasting sessions” to determine the best shape, but isn’t it amusing how close the first Macintosh and Lisa computers came to having two-button mice? Think of the world we’d live in if Macs…
