In response, Asus and Lamborghini have also announced a new line of notebooks, not yet named and not yet available (to ship in April), the only thing I can offer you is a picture of the shell, and boy does it look nice.
After you read this post, you will be thinking, ‘Why wouldn’t I want one?’ Don’t look at me, I don’t know.
The Pak Lite is not a gun, and its not hunting attire, but it is an ingenious plastic cap, with two LED lights, and when attached to a 9volt battery turns into a tiny torch. I know its not a new mobile phone, or an Xbox 360, but it has a reach of approximately 15 meters, costs about 30USD with a lithium battery, and comes in white, red, and green light.

At the 2006 CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas, WowWee revealed the three newest members of the Robosapien series. One of which was the Robosapien RS2 Media (picture right), the newer brother of the Robosapien V2.
The next generation RS2 is set for release around the last quarter of 2006, and sports a LCD display on the torso, USB port and memory card. The 320×160 screen displays video from the robots helmet camera, captured in MPEG4, and saved onto the memory card.
The RS2 Robot has evolved and now allows motion capture and voice recordings to be saved to the memory card. Which can be further controlled via computer editing software, in order to sync both sound and movement into one fluid action.
Along with the functions of the older Robosapien V2, the RS2 has 11watt stereo speakers (hands) and subwoofer (back), which can be utilized by connecting an MP3 player to USB port and playing your stored music.
The SGH-T809 does not have the most attractive name, but damn its good looking, and it makes the Motorola RAZR look like a doorstopper. Samsung has achieved this by being able to combine such tiny dimensions (3.98�? x 2.09�? x 0.61�?) with this huge list of features:
– A clear 240×320 LCD @ 262K colors
– 1.3 megapixel with zoom, flash, & video capabilities
– Bluetooth wireless technology
– MP3 audio player and ringtone support
– WAP compliant browser, GSM quad band technology
– 70MB internal memory + removable storage memory
Obviously the Samsung SGH-T809 comes with games, java, tools & apps, vibrate alert, speakerphone, PC Sync, custom graphics, picture ID, predictive text, MMS capability etc etc… but I’m sure you already knew that
