The new Toshiba Satellite M105 is a nice core duo spec laptop with a nice price tag! If you are wanting something less expensive but not lacking performance then this is for you. It will be on the market for $1050 direct, cheaper at retail. It only weighs 5.2 pounds.
The screen is a wide 14.1″ running at 1280×800. It has a 100Gb HDD, DVD+R DL disc drive. Battery life is not too bad either at 3 hours 38 minutes. Other features are FireWire, S-Video, USB, card reader and such 🙂 Enjoy!

Mitsubish are to launch the XD435U-G DLP Projector. So whats it all about? The XD435u-G has a quick power up and quick powerdown feature which is nice for starting presentations. I personally have had an issue while switching projectors on to start a presentation and something is for some reason different.
One other nice feature is a USB connection where you can connect a USB memory stick to play video files and images. Very useful so you do not have to connect a laptop!

What on earth is a super gadget? Mustek have created it and I will tell you 🙂 A super gadget is something that plays music, videos, has a built in 10 Mega Pixel camera and can encode footage from TV’s or DVD players as well as a whole lot more.
The mustek is an amazing looking little device that seriously packs a punch in it’s tiny case.
The price? Not much to be honest. They have squeezed all this in to a less then $200 package.
Unfortunatly it’s not really a 10 Mega Pixel camera… it’s a 5 megapixel interpolated. It is still a good bargain at the price it is coming on sale for and you will need a hefty SD card to capture recordings.

According to sources, the Toshiba HD-A1 looses $200 on each and every sale. This is iSuppli who have taken the thing appart and priced up each part. They reakon it costs over $700 to make one of these units which sells at $500.
The reason being that they want to penetrate the market before all the Blu-Ray technology comes out later on this year.

This weird looking DAB radio is really kind of cool 🙂 and sports a titanium silver finish.
You can also pause and rewind live broadcasts, set up to twenty alarms to wake you with live or recorded content (up to 15 hours on a 1GB card), and output the audio via an S/PDIF jack if those bug-eye speakers aren’t doing it for you

Primera have launched the Blu-ray Disc Duplication system which is a worlds first for the new highly anticipated format. 50 discs can be loaded in to this device with a potential of 50Gb each. This makes….. 2.5Tb to my calculations of backup space. From what I am reading about this device, it has some funky robotics type thing and also can print direct to disc via a bubblejet printer. The unit is rack mountable and more then 1 can be stacked… just incase 2.5Tb is not quite enough room.
