OO HD wireless projector concept reaches for the stars, almost grabs ‘em (video)

admin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 07:05:00 +0000

David Riesenberg obviously had his head in the clouds when he dreamed up the OO High Definition Wireless Projector, but it’s not like we’re kvetching about his imagination’s ability to go far beyond the limits of most humans. For one thing, the concept 1080p projector looks (and lands ) like a stunning orange UFO; for another, the specs are otherwordly. Should the device ever come to market, Reisenberg says it will pack SSD storage, WiFi and internal decoder chips into its svelte, 11-inch round carbon fiber frame, as well as three independently articulated legs for balance and a Li-ion battery for up to three hours of cord-free HD streaming and playback. Did we mention it’s got a matching touchscreen remote? And our deepest affection, forever and ever? See what we’re drooling over in Riesenberg’s subtle video homage to a certain interstellar piano waltz right after the break.

Happy Hour watches open bottles, doors unto new worlds (video)

admin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 06:34:00 +0000

Ready for your daily dose of ingeniousness ? That word is actually real, and so is the Happy Hour Timepiece — a watch that doubles as a bottle opener, because as the tagline reminds us, “it’s 5 o’clock somewhere .” It has just become available to buy from Time Tap’s website, and its black leather-strapped awesomeness can be yours for $49.95. Click past the break to see video of it being demonstrated as well as a shot of the watch face itself — it even has dual digital and analog time displays, so much value!

Samsung’s 2010 3DTVs priced from $1,700 to ridiculous and everywhere in between

admin — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:59:00 +0000

Enjoy your CES peek at Samsung’s ultrathin 9000 series LED-lit LCD HDTV , with its touchscreen, video displaying remote control (also available as a $350 add-on for the 7000, 8000,and 750 series televisions) and 3D capability? That’s good, because bringing the 55-inch UN55C9000 home in April will cost you a cool $6,999 (the thrifty can slum it with the 46-inch version for $5,999.) Still, if you’re just looking to jump in on 3D without spending the max money, the cheapest model available at first will be the standard LCD LN46C750 available in May. In between, there’s all manner of LED or old-school CCFL backlit LCDs plus a healthy lineup of plasmas arriving over the next few months, so with a note that grabbing 3D Blu-ray player and display at the same time will net a couple free pairs of active shutter glasses and a copy of the Monsters vs. Aliens 3D Blu-ray, check Samsung’s site for each type to see what your budget can handle.

Samsung prices TL500, TL350, AQ100 and SL605 shooters

admin — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:58:00 +0000

Samsung has just visited a bunch of data sheets upon us, and we’ve drawn out a few as yet unknown numerals regarding pricing and availability of the shooters it showed off at PMA this year . The TL500 above, swiveling AMOLED screen and all, will set buyers back $449 this spring when it’ll be joined by its junior sibling, the TL350 , which will cost $349. Both shooters offer RAW support and dual image stabilization, though funnily enough the cheaper 350 model offers 1080p video recording whereas the gaudier TL500 makes do with 640 x 480. If you’re after something a bit more durable, the scratch-proof and rubberized SL605 will set you back only $129, while the all-weather AQ100 gets a $199 sticker, with both expected in that same spring release window. Phew, aren’t you glad you know all that now? Samsung prices TL500, TL350, AQ100 and SL605 shooters originally appeared on Engadget on Tue, 09 Mar 2010 10:58:00 EST.

Aiptek PocketCinema Z20 packs pico projector and 720p camcorder

admin — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 12:29:00 +0000

Watch out, Flip , because here’s one tough guy that you don’t wanna mess with. Joining Aiptek ’s family of pocket camcorders is the PocketCinema Z20 — a fine mix of 720p camera (courtesy of a 5 megapixel sensor) and pico projector of an unknown resolution, powered by a two-hour battery (which we’ll believe when we see it). Users will be spoiled by a long list of features: 2GB of internal memory, microSDHC expansion, built-in 2.4-inch LCD, HDMI output, composite video input (iPod adapter included) and remote control. Want it? You can pre-order now for €349 or about $476 ahead of its mid-April launch. Meanwhile, enjoy Aiptek’s cheesy promotion video after the break.

HDI CEO admits that smaller laser 3D HDTVs could become a reality, 103-incher coming in June

admin — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 12:04:00 +0000

We’ve been waiting on Woz’s favorite 3D display ever to ship for quite some time, and as of now, no delays have been seen. According to a new interview with HDI CEO Ingemar Jansson, the June ship date for its 103-inch, laser-based monster is still on track, with a $10,000 price tag being placed on it when ordered “in volume.” Frankly, there’s not much here that we haven’t already heard about the new face of 1080p 3D in the home; what is new, however, is the mention that smaller versions could very well be on the horizon. Regardless of whether you’re man or woman enough to admit it, a 103-inch set is far too large for the vast majority of homes, so a 46-inch iteration — which was mentioned specifically in the dialog — could be a perfect alternative. There was no time table or estimated price given for the smaller version(s), but you can bet we’ll be keeping an ear to the ground for more. Oh, and if you don’t think an HDTV upstart can give Sony, Sharp and Samsung a run for their money, there’s a ” Mr. Vizio ” in the back room that would like to have a word with you.

Apple, Siemens and Sisvel patent infringement leads to CeBIT booth raid

admin — Sun, 07 Mar 2010 14:02:00 +0000

Mama always said that some folks just never learn , and we reckon there’s plenty of wisdom to be had from that very statement. Year after year , German police are called in to raid select booths at CeBIT ( and IFA , to be fair), and yet again we’ve seen a booth cleared out at the request of powerful lawyers from a few companies you may have heard of. Word on the street has it that Apple, Siemens and Sisvel were all kvetching over patent infringements made by an unnamed company exhibiting at last week’s show, and within an hour or so of the fuzz showing up, the whole thing was stripped and a hefty fine (€10,000) was levied. Unfortunately, the exact details of who was violating what remains clouded in mystery, but for whatever reason, we get the feeling that something extremely similar will be going down in Hannover next year. We blame KIRFers determination. [Thanks, TheLostSwede] Apple, Siemens and Sisvel patent infringement leads to CeBIT booth raid originally appeared on Engadget on Sun, 07 Mar 2010 14:02:00 EST.

Keepin’ it real fake: HP Mini 5101 knockoff is almost as good, almost as expensive as the real thing

admin — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 16:13:00 +0000

Coveting a beautiful new netbook but can’t quite manage the $399 for a new HP Mini 5101/5102 ? Maybe this knock-off would fit your budget, looking more or less indistinguishable from the real thing. The ports have a slightly different layout (with some of them looking a wee bit askew) and the red hue here doesn’t have quite the same lustre of the real thing — but it is awfully close, right down to the chrome HP logo on the lid. How much would you pay for this piece of impressioned gadgetry? How about $337? Sure, the difference is enough to cover a copy of Heavy Rain, but could you live with yourself typing your e-mail every day on a lie ? Beyond that, we have a suspicion this thing wouldn’t last much longer than the Origami Killer’s victims.

Viliv S10 Blade tablet unboxed and multitouched (video)

admin — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 14:35:00 +0000

Viliv’s latest touchable objet d’gadget is the S10 Blade convertible tablet, a slim and sophisticated little thing that looks like it will elevate the company out of the ultraportable business and into the realm of things that take up a little bit more room in your messenger bag. Chippy over at UMPCPortal was granted access to a pre-production unit and has delivered this exhaustive unboxing and hands-on video, featuring no less than two minutes of multitouch scribbling. The device looks like it’s a very good size, the form factor looks simple and solid and, with an MSRP starting at just $699, we’re quite eager to see how it holds up in a full review. All in good time, readers. All in good time.
