LG eXpo, Mobile Projector

LG eXpo

LG eXpo has been unveiled, new high-end terminal characteristics overwhelming, but with a main novelty compared to other models in the market: the possibility of adding a spike projector.

The peak projector, which will be sold as an option for $ 180, will play back images to a distance of 2.44 meters and it will fit in the back of the terminal, occupying a sizeable space. Incidentally, the LG Expo is a slider-type mobile, physical QWERTY keyboard and 3.2-inch screen, which is not excessively large.

As for hardware features we will find the familiar Qualcomm Snapdragon processor 1 GHz, one of the most powerful on the market today and that will move a Windows Mobile 6.5 with HSPA. It will also include GPS and 5 megapixel camera, among other features.

Unfortunately, the LG eXpo only be sold for now, the United States, beginning on 7 December for a price of $ 200 under a given contract. His departure to the rest of the market is today uncertain.

About the peak integrated projector seemed a good idea to offer it as an option only for those who really want and need and for a fairly affordable price. But do not expect wonders from a projector integrated into a mobile, if that remains to be seen more as something to use in rare cases.

Airis Dbook EB001, another e-book on Christmas eve

Airis DBook EB001
Now, looking at the new e-book Airis Dbook EB001, we also realize that the strategy by most brands is the same: to offer products traced to the standard price. With ultraportables was a disaster, because the market was filled with the first model year it was difficult to differentiate, and nobody dared not move. He spent the boom, and now we see ultraportables with better batteries, multimedia aspirations … something different, go.

Returning to the electronic book reader Airis, offers a 6-inch screen and 512 MB internal memory, which can extend to the use of SD memory cards. Autonomy stands at 8,000 pages and also comes with headphone output 2.5 mm, the specifications do you sound? Are similar to many of the books that have emerged in recent months. We find for example the recent Energy Sistem models, which differ almost only in the design, and very slightly.

Do not expect much less connectivity that the screen is touch and we can take notes. Airis Dbook EB001 model, weighing 175 grams, will cost 250 euros, which makes us think the EPUB format will not be among the supported formats, as with the economic model of Energy Sistem, leaving these books in disadvantage.

If you plan to spend that money on an electronic book, we recommend our selection of models under $ 300.

The Philips BDP3000 can be purchased either by 179 euros, taking home a player that comes with BD-Live and resize mode of the DVD that we have at home.

The computer also comes with support for Dolby TrueHD and Divx Ultra system, with which we can play files in this format with support for subtitles, multiple audio languages, and menus. Good player at an attractive price but they will miss the wireless connectivity (WiFi) and function of advanced media player, whether external hard disk or Internet.

nokia 5330 tv

Nokia wants to revive the topic of mobile television by presenting a new terminal, the Nokia 5330 Mobile TV Edition. This phone comes with 2.4 inch screen is capable of receiving television signal DVB-H technology, in addition to headphone output 3.5 mm.

As terminal focused on mobile television, the Nokia 5330 comes with Mobile TV electronic programming guide and a series of applications to help in the experiment, such as reminders for when to start programs that we want to see or the possibility of creating our own program schedule.

Definitely as I have thought about the issue of autonomy. Nokia promises up to 6 hours of continuous television in this Nokia 5330 Mobile TV. And as for receiving the signal, as with the radio, the headphones act as antenna, so we keep them connected for adequate signal.

As for the phone as a terminal, is a 3G handset with a camera of 3.2 megapixels and direct access to the most used social networking.

The services of mobile TV based on DVB-H will start for good in 2010, a year ahead to be implemented in most countries. To begin, Spain is not among those who have this possibility immediately.
