AOC V500, A Very Slim PMP

I’m not sure if what’s so alluring about this new PMP is really the device itself or the lovely image of Kiera Knightly used cleverly in this product shot. Nonetheless, this Chinese market AOC V500 is worth a glimpse with its super slim body, sleek styling, and 2.4-inch QVGA LCD. 

The device handles audio and video formats such as MP3, WMA, WAV, MPEG4 and AVI. It also supports JPEGs for picture viewing and connects via USB 2.0. However, nothing really that incredible here besides the 9.8mm thinness, which is pretty darn thin.

Digital Darts - all bits and plastic tips

The Digital Darts Game brings the ancient game up to date with an LCD scoreboard, a handicap button, sound and multiple game types in the one device. The lovely thing about the Korean sales site is that they’ve gone the whole hog and included in-depth instructions on how to play the game, including suitable derisory comments about your opponents failings (‘my grandma can do better’). Lovely marketing. $107.00 in Korean folding.

Parrot Bluetooth photo frame

WiFi-enabled photo frames are old hat by now, and in line with technological tradition, a new kind of wireless photo frames have arrived to take their rightful place atop the hill. Parrot has unveiled its new Bluetooth photo frames that enable you to transfer photos from your Bluetooth-powered cellphone or digital camera in a flash. Each of these photo frames come with a 3.5" 262k color TFT LCD display in 320 x 234 pixels, a built-in light sensor that turns on the backlight automatically, 32MB of internal memory, and a portrait or landscape position sensor. Too bad it does not come with a memory card slot of any kind, as 100 photos don't just quite make the cut these days. There's no word on pricing details at the moment.

X-Arm Remote Controlled On-Wall Mounting Solution

 

The X-Arm from K2 Mounts and CLO Systems allows you to adjust the viewing angle of a flat panel TV with a universal remote control for a perfect viewing angle anywhere. At the touch of a button on the provided universal remote control or via a RS-232 controlled touch panel, X-arm smoothly extends the TV 12 inches from the wall allowing the viewer to adjust the swivel left/right range of motion from 20º to 32º (depending on display size) in either direction and tilt range up to 25º down and 7º up until the optimum, glare-free viewing angle is obtained and stored. Two programmable memory locations are provided to recall viewing preferences. X-arm is easily installed in the same manner as any conventional manual wall mounting unit.

A universal mounting attachment kit is provided to facilitate easy coupling with the flat panel display. In the retracted position, the TV is unobtrusive, residing a mere 4.6 inches from the wall. X-arm is designed to accommodate plasma or LCD flat panel TV’s in 40 to 65-inch sizes. X-arm is available in either black or silver colors with MSRP of $1995.00.
