Yet another color option is made available for the Sony Ericsson W380 clamshell phone. Following the previous addition of Black Champagne to its available colors, this time the W380 is made to look more like a Walkman phone with black and orange styling. Sony Ericsson is calling this new color Tangerine Black, where the same black body from the Black Champagne model is retained but the golden Walkman logo gets changed to a bright orange hue. Expect this new model to be released soon.

Frankly I don’t get the idea behind Logitech’s diNovo Mini. If you have a TV and you want to easily control it, you’d normally use a remote control right? If you have a laptop or a desktop and you want to work on it, you’d not sit too far from it right? Then what’s the use of a wireless keyboard that you can connect to your PC and TV? Well yeah, the diNovo Mini looks sleek, good and your friends would definitely say “wow, what a good looking small gadget you have there!” Other than that, the Logitech does some pretty standard functions that may either impress you or make you ignore it.

Posted Mar 16th 2008 4:43PM by Ryan BlockFiled under: Gaming Today’s Wii homebrew hotness comes by way of Team Twiizers, whose new hack takes last week’s CameCube-free loader and enables custom channel icons that load hacked apps just like that. Getting from point A to point B still isn’t a cakewalk yet, though; you still have to load the Zelda / Twilight hack and use it to reboot your Wii to get that app into the channel space.

Six additional Blu-ray players have just been certified by DivX, joining the ranks of Sony PS3 that received its certification at the end of 2007. Such certification is important because it means only one thing: 25 hours of DVD-quality video can now be saved on a single Blu-ray disc. Since the end of the format war, Blu-ray has been gaining more popularity with the gadget society. Michelle Abraham, an In-Stat Principal Analyst, said: “In-Stat expects worldwide shipments of Blu-ray players to reach 23 million in 2011. DivX is well-positioned to become a standard feature on Blu-ray devices, just as it has shipped in millions of DVD players worldwide.” Looks like Blu-ray players are here to say.

Posted Mar 16th 2008 11:22AM by Paul MillerFiled under: cellphones, Home Entertainment, Wireless Yeah, all those sticky sweet stories about WiMAX actually happening this decade or possibly showing up in a device or two were really getting on our nerves. Now it seems the “little wireless standard that couldn’t” is back to form with a report from the Satellite Users Interference Reduction Group (SUIRG). Apparently those folks found “conclusive” results of “unacceptable” levels of interference from WiMAX of satellite signals in the C-band.
