Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: PC / Laptop, Peripherals, Video Games, Wireless / WiFi,

They will be the first of its type to feature THX TruStudio PC sound. For purists, no worries - they’ll also be available in a wired model as well.

Considering that the number of repeated stress injury cases in the United States are caused by the use of a computer mouse, it is nice to see companies make hands-free mice. This is the SmartNav 4 EG infared mouse controller works: all you need to do is put the device atop of your monitor, and it will track a reflective spot on the user’s glasses, hat, or forehead. So how do you click the mouse? With a keyboard key, the voice, or a USB foot and hand switch. You should be able to get it for about $399.

Logitech Performance Mouse MX and Anywhere Mouse MX work on glass
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Accessories, PC / Laptop, Peripherals, Wireless / WiFi,
I swear, Logitech must have some department that puts out cool technology daily, as they’ve just released two mice that can literally work on glass, something that has always seemed to evade us. Both the Performance Mouse MX ($100) and the Anywhere Mouse MX ($80) use Darkfield Laser Tracking Technology to accomplish this feat, and they’re both available now. You can get the Logitech Performance Mouse MX and the Logitech Anywhere Mouse MX on Amazon.

Canon SELPHY ES40 voice-guided photo printer
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Cameras, Peripherals,
Canon has put out a lot of great printers, and the SELPHY ES40 looks like a one-of-a-kind with its “voice-guidance” system. Canon has been pretty quiet on this, which is surprising, since this is a feature you’d think they’d want to tout. What we do know is that it has a 3.5-inch LCD display for previewing your images, and a scrollwheel to navigate through the interface. It should retail for $149.99 when it is released, which coincidentally, they haven’t given any information on release date either.
Until then, keep talking to your printer as you normally do. Maybe Canon will make a printer that will talk back to you. Not looking forward to that.

Microsoft LifeCam Cinema Shoots in 720p HD
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Accessories, USB, Cameras, PC / Laptop, Peripherals,
I realize that many shoot their own version of EdTV or The Truman Show with their webcams every day, what with this whole YouTube thing we keep hearing about. If that is you, then you may be interested in Microsoft’s LifeCam Cinema, which records in 720p HD at 30 frames per second. The LifeCam Cinema also touts autofocus, 4x digital zoom, noise-canceling microphone, and ClearFrame for “smoother video” (whatever that is.) It will support Windows 7, and will be available for $80 on September 9th.

BenQ Goes Green with LED-backlit V2400 and V220 Eco
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Design, Displays, Peripherals,
It’s good to know that major electronics makers have realized that it makes more sense to “go green” than to avoid it. BenQ, for example, has recently created two new V Series monitors that are meant to be eco-friendly. The 24-inch V2400 Eco and 21.5-inch V2200 Eco have dynamic contrast ratios of 5,000,000:1, and are LED-backlit 1080p panels. The monitors are made from 28 percent recycled plastic. They also reduce power by 30 percent in eco mode, and 36 percent overall. These displays are available in China in a week, but we expect them to arrive stateside soon enough.

Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Home Entertainment, Smart Home, Peripherals, Portable Audio / Video,
Some of you probably still have remote controls that still require you to point at the television, DVD player, DVR, or whatever else you have on your home entertainment center. If you happen to be an AT&T U-Verse customer, you can upgrade and use a remote that doesn’t require any pointing. The AT&T U-verse TV Point Anywhere RF remote that is right up your alley, as it sends remote commands over radio RF signal to the receiver.

Dell’s E2010H, E2210H, and ST2310 LCD Displays
Posted by Mark Rollins Categories: Displays, HDTV, PC / Laptop, Peripherals,
Dell is no stranger to the display business, which may explain why they have launched three new models, seemingly without letting anyone know about them. The 22-inch E2210H and 20-inch E2010H are $199 and $139, respectfully. The E2210H has a full HD resolution, while the E2010H sports 1600 x 900 pixels. The other is the ST2310 (pictured) which is a widescreen with full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution, as well as DVI/VGA/HDMI inputs plus a 50,000:1 contrast ratio with a price point of $229.
