    Sony's new Walkman A845 is as slim as four SD cards. That's slim, indeed. But even at 7.2mm, it's still beat by the anorexic iPod nano at 6.2mm. Sorry, Sony. That's all we care about these days. We're that shallow.

    Interesting. This little doodad is called FOTOBOX Plus. It’s an $80 USB apparatus that reads SD cards from your digital camera. The idea is that you take a bunch of photos on your digital camera and then pop the SD card into the FOTOBOX Plus, which goes into your computer’s USB port. At that point, built-in slideshow software builds an automatic slideshow from your photos.
