    Brando gets comfy with USB 3.0

    USB 3.0 is no longer for richy-rich chumps. The low-cost crapgadget standard, Brando, has its own line of USB 3.0 gadgets now: a 4-port hub and a USB 3.0 to dual SATA cable. Times are good, my friends.

    It's cute, it's as small as an eraser, it's light, and it's waterproof: Tokyo-based accessory maker Japan Trust Technology is offering the CHOBi CAM WP, a digital camera that's actually not waterproof by itself but comes with a special case that makes it possible to take it up to 20m underwater without any problems (IP68).

    Microsoft Germany goes live with Kin 1 and Kin 2 specs

    We got our first good look at Microsoft's upcoming smart feature phones -- the Kin 1 and Kin 2 -- a week back. While the company let us man-handle the phones, Microsoft was quiet about the actual specs. But Microsoft Germany apparently thought that was silly and just released all the technical info on the two phones via its Facebook Fan Page. How nice.

  • USB 3.0 adoption could be slowed because of lack of demand

    USB 3.0 adoption could be slowed because of lack of demand

    Willing to spend $300+ on a fancy motherboard just so you can get USB 3.0 support? Yeah, that might not be such a good idea, if only because Intel is in no hurry to integrate the spec into its chipsets. That means companies have to go out of their way to offer USB 3.0 on their systems. The odds of seeing USB 3.0 on a cheap-o netbook, then, are pretty much non-existent.

  • The PQI H566 USB 3.0 external hard drive is a looker

    The PQI H566 USB 3.0 external hard drive is a looker

    >PQI was one of the first companies to out a USB 3.0 flash drive back in 2009 and it's back again with a 2.5-inch USB 3.0 external hard drive. You should know the drill by now. Nearly all of these hard drives are the same. The H566 comes either in 320GB, 500GB, or 640GB flavors and utilizes USB 3.0 to transfer files at speeds that max out at 5.0Gbps while providing backwards compatibility with USB 2.0. The drive dons a rather sexy metallic silver casing and ships with data encryption tools for the aluminium hat-wearing folk.

    Form over function: Brinell Purestorage external drives

    I understand the desire to have your computer stuff look good, really I do. But things like this are just silly to me. They are obviously pointed at a market that doesn't know any better, and buy things based on the appearance rather then the functionality. Brinell, the company that makes these fancy veneer clad drives, has even won a couple of design awards for their form over function.

    The Apogee Astro Drive Series A101 from Chaintech is apparently the world’s smallest USB 3.0 drive

    USB 3.0 is finally getting some traction in the market place as more products are announced from more manufacturers. Chaintech just intro'd its first USB 3.0 drive and slapped the notorious "world's smallest" label on it, which is probably true although a bit disingenuous as there's only about three USB 3.0 flash drives available right now.
