Street fighter fans can now pre-order the Street Fighter IV Japanese Arcade game which will cost you $23000. Pre-orders start this money ready for shipping in August. The good news is that 23000 dollars will actually get you 4 arcade head to head machines. If you opt for a single machine we assume it will be near 1/4 of that price. From the video below, the game does look very cool and well worth waiting for when it hits the games consoles. For those with tons of spare money and no patience, head on over to here to pre-order.

Navigon have launched a new range of Sat Nav units which have a number of new features. The first, pictured above, is called Reality View. What Reality View does is show a 3D image of complex road junctions. If you are a regular user of sat nav you will have arrived at a complex junction and not been able to tell which turning to take as it isn’t always clear on the sat nav screen. By using a 3D representation it makes it far easier to visualise which is the correct junction to turn off on to.

Text to Speech is also a feature of the 2100 and 2120 Navigons which can speak out street names to you further assisting your navigation by helping you to keep your eyes on the road. Turn by turn instructions are spoken to you as you drive along your route.

Another feature of this device is FreshMaps which keeps your map up to date. 12 map updates over 3 years are supplied keeping map data as new as possible for the life of your Navigon. POI updates can also be downloaded to the device so you always have the latest data to hand when you need it.

The Navigon has a 4.3″ touch screen with an anti-glare coating over it making this sat nav look rather tasty. The Navigon will set you back $299 CAD for the 2100 series which contains maps of the US. The 2120 contains maps of Canada also and costs $329 CAD.

The Triton 79 Amazing is built by Asus and is a limited edition cooler for your CPU. Just 3200 of these will be built. The cooler is aimed at gaming enthusiasts and helps keep PC’s running at the lowest possible temperature. By lowering the operating temperature it allows for some major over clocking of the processor and in turn, that speeds up the PC making game play and graphics smoother. The Triton 79 supports Intel Core 2 Extreme, Core 2 Quad-Core and AMD Athlon 64 processors.

The cooler is metallic looking, made from nickel plating with a copper base. 4 copper heat popes with aluminium fins help disperse the heat away from the processor and to top it off, there is a 12 cm fan to keep things cool. I have to admit that it does look like a great cooler for the gaming market and with only 3200 being made available, we can expect this one to sell quite quick among enthusiasts.

For the regular mobile gadget user, power is an essential part of your life. Every day the average gadget users carries around a mobile phone, possibly a pocket PC and even a portable gaming system. Power outlets on the wall are not always available and this is where a USB Powerstick can help. The powerstick has a 750mAh capacity and uses USB to charge it self up. Charging to 90% capacity takes just 90 minutes and the powerstick can then be used to charge your mobile devices. It uses a lithium polymer battery which was chosen for a few reasons. First, they are more compact then the more traditional lithium-ion battery’s and also, they are less volatile and less likely to go up in flames which is always a good thing considering it could spend a good deal of time in your pocket.

A small LCD meter is provided on the top of the powerstick which shows how much charge it is holding. This is handy in that you can get a quick glimpse of how your backup battery is doing. With the powerstick being USB it allows it to be charged not only via a laptop or PC, but by the growing number of places such as air plane seats and cars which are now making available USB connectors.

Once the powerstick is charged it’s self, you can then select the appropriate tip to connect it to your mobile device and let it charge away. The charger acts just like a wall charger in that you can still use your phone while charging it with a USB powerstick.

More details can be found over at Powerstick.com where the powerstick is available with 9 tips for $69.95.
