It weighs just 1.16kg, too.

Meet baby humanoids M3-synchy and M3-neony
Posted on March 4, 2010 | No Comments
The JST, Japan's Science and Technology Agency, announced [JP] the development of M3-neony (pictured above) and M3-synchy today, two advanced baby-like robots. While "neony" (derived from "neonate") is intentionally designed to look like a newborn, "snychy" just stands for "synchronous communication" (but as you can see, he looks like a baby, too). The M3 stands for "Man-Made Man".
M3-neony is developed to mimic the behavior of a human baby. The JST says the robot is able to move certain "muscles" randomly, just like a newborn who is learning how to move does. It's supposed to serve as a research object for scientists who want to explore this process.

The new MSi Classic Series CX520 and CR620 notebooks rock Core i5 or i3 CPUs
Posted on February 3, 2010 | No Comments
Intel's Core i5 and i3 CPUs have found a new home in MSi's latest notebook offerings. The CX520 and CR20 Classic Series combine otherwise standard specs and a 15.6-inch 16:9 screen with the powerful cores. Both seem like solid rigs although you'll likely pass over them in favor of something a bit more flashy.

Onkyo to sell beefed up version of Kohjinsha’s dual-screen notebook
Posted on December 10, 2009 | No Comments
I'm sure many of you remember the pretty cool-looking dual-screen notebook Japanese company Kohjinsha announced last month (it's already available over here). As it turns out, another Japanese PC maker, Onkyo, thought the device is worthy enough to get rebranded and improved spec-wise. The result is the DX1007A5 [JP], which is slightly more expensive than the Kohjinsha original though.
So what's new? The device still features two sliding, LED-backlit 10.1-inch LCDs (no touch screens) but with an improved resolution of 1,366×768 (instead of 1,024×600). Onkyo also beefed up some internal specs: The notebook now has 2GB RAM (Kohjinsha: 1GB) and a 320GB HDD (Kohjinsha: 160GB) but doesn't offer the 1-Seg digital TV tuner anymore (which was usable only in Japan and parts of South America). And the body color changed to white.

Onkyo’s 7-inch tablet PC with integrated GPS module
Posted on December 10, 2009 | No Comments
Onkyo Japan has announced a few notebooks today, all of which are in fact re-branded (but beefed up) models competitor Kohjinsha released earlier on the Japanese market. Perhaps the most interesting new model is the NX707A4 [JP], a 7-inch tablet netbook with an built-in GPS module.
The tablet is powered by Atom Z520 processor (1.33 GHz) and has an 80GB HDD, 1GB RAM, Intel US15W chipset, two USB ports, an ExpressCard/34 slot, SD/SDHC/MMC/Memory Stick Pro slots, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR, 802.11n Wi-Fi and two web cams (3MP and 0.3MP) on board. The display is a touch screen with 1,024x600 resolution.

Kohjinsha’s futuristic dual-screen notebook
Posted on November 27, 2009 | No Comments
Maybe it's just me, but this dual-screen notebook Kojinsha started selling in Japan today [JP] looks very futuristic (and very cool) to me. The main selling point is that you get not one but two 10.1-inch LCD screens in a compact body (size: 280×210×19〜42mm, weight: 1.84kg). And you can even buy the DZ6KH16E, which looks like a normal notebook when you use just one of the screens, if you live outside Japan.

LG announces new “Pop” mainstream touch screen phone
Posted on September 30, 2009 | No CommentsKorean electronics giant, LG, believes there is an entire segment of mobile consumers who’ve been left out in the cold, i.e. the mainstream public, when it comes to touch screen phones. In other words, not everyone wants a full-fledged (read: “complex”) smartphone, but most people do lust after a touch screen. In light of this [...] -
Video Review: EVGA Interview
Posted on August 7, 2009 | No Comments
I'm going to be kind here and say that EVGA Interview is an interesting product. It is a dual monitor system with two 17-inch screens attached to a base. It's a good idea, it really is. I'm just concerned that $600 is a bit much to pay for two screens in this configuration.
The trick here is that the screens turn over when you twist them into position. Want to show someone across the desk from you something? Flip over the monitor. It bears to note, however, that you need two graphics cards - DVI or VGA capable - to use both monitors at the same time.

Sprint launches the LG LX290, no one notices
Posted on July 13, 2009 | No Comments
You know, we would write a nice, well though out post about the LG LX290. We'd make a joke or two at its expense for being a bit on the ugly side, point out the 1.3mp camera, and then come up with some way to make this thing sound intriguing.
But we can't do that.
