When it comes to TV, there’s a new kid on the block. It’s called the XEL-1 and it’s changing television the way the iPhone changed cell phones. So what’s it’s secret? A display that measures only 3mm thick and a picture that even outclasses HD TV.
This technology is breakthrough. An OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) converts electric energy directly into light. These display panels do not require a thick backlight, thus producing incredibly fast response times, and top energy efficiency. At 11″ the picture may be small but it has a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1! It’s not just the screen that is revolutionary, the TV itself sports two HDMI™ inputs, a digital tuner, and a Memory Stick® media slot.
Other “miracles” stuffed into this sleek package are: color purity(105% of the NTSC color space is achieved); a wide 178° viewing angle; exceptional color reproduction; outstanding contrast levels; and high brightness. Sony has created a milestone with the first OLED television, the XEL-1. (more…)

DXG is one of the fastest growing digital camera manufacturers, but you won’t be able to tell from their prices.

While the retail price is really affordable, you’ll still have to invest a SD memory card for storage.
This HD camcorder should give similar devices a serious run for the money. (more…)

Ok, so technically the 605 WiFi PMP and the GPS In-Car Holder are two gadgets. But ARCHOS addition of GPS capabilities to its 605 series is akin to when peanut butter met jelly, it just works.
The pair, which can be bought in a bundle with a 30GB hard drive for $399.99, combine to give passengers a complete media center and drivers a full featured GPS system.
The GPS In-Car Holder provides standard fare. The 4.3″ touch screen provides a clean look for maps and directions. The audio readouts help drivers navigate when they need to keep their eyes on the road. Features also include traffic assistance, route planning and speed control assistance. (more…)
