Micro SD Card Projector
The moment I saw the Micro SD Card Projector, my skepticism alarm went off. After all, portable projectors often generate images that are not as clear as their non-portable predecessors.
My skepticism lessened when I saw images of its projections from the product page. They looked like the projected images you would see from any other projector. Of course, it’s really hard to tell how good a projector is from a picture of its projection. It looks like my skepticism is now increasing.
Especially when I saw this product being sold on a site called Drinkstuff.com. It’s almost like their company slogan would be “we sell stuff that drunk people should use”. Yet Drinkstuff has also been around for over 30 years, and they have a lot of other quality merchandise on their site.

NapTV – TV and Stool in One
The NapTV is one of those bizarre integrations of two devices that you occasionally come across. This time the mixture is a TV and Stool built in to one device. What it allows you to do is either sit on it and read, or lay under it and watch TV. The TV screen is an LCD panel that is built in to the underside of the stool which also features stereo speakers in the two legs. This allows you to lay flat on your back, surrounded in sound with out being distracted. Laying flat also ensures you do not have to twist your neck in to any strange and uncomfortable position.

Sony BDZ-A70 Blu-ray recorder plays nice with Walkman, PSP
Sony’s new BDZ-A70 Blu-ray recorder targets folks who were disappointed when the recently released PS3 firmware actually lacked the Blu-ray transfer feature that was seen to be a long time coming, since it is now able to record TV as well as transfer the recorded shows directly onto a PSP or Sony Walkman, depending on the type of portable entertainment system you prefer to tote around. It takes approximately 3 minutes to transfer an hour’s worth of recorded TV but the continued exclusivity held by Sony when it comes to their devices interacting only with one another is a big turn off point for me. The Sony BDZ-A70 Blu-ray recorder has been slated with an April 30th release in Japan for approximately $1,670.

Mitsubishi announces LaserVue
Mitsubishi Digital Electronics America has announced the name and details of its LaserTV which will be known as LaserVue. This is the first product line of its kind, realizing the dream of the laser-powered TV which made its debut at CES earlier this year in Las Vegas. Mitsubishi claims that the LaserVue will deliver a range of color never before seen in home entertainment – pretty high claims, so it must be seen to be believed. Other details concerning this year’s DLP lineup and its range of ultra thin LCD HDTVs will include a thinner frame and brighter picture on the DLP models and while the proprietary Ultra Thin Frame on the LCD HDTVs will feature improved sound capabilities. LsaerVue models will be available sometime this Q3 at a yet undisclosed price. Image courtesy of Gizmodo.

ZoomSwitch ZMS10
If you happen to be a heavy phone headset user, then perhaps the ZoomSwitch ZMS10 could be just the headset accessory for you, enabling the user to access both phone and computer communications via a single headset. This is one interesting add-on to any office, considering the soaring popularity and increased use of both computer-based communications and audio applications such as unified messaging, online music, VoIP softphones, voice recognition software and internet telephony services such as Skype. Why not merge the functionalities of both in a single headset? After all, it will surely save you a whole lot of time switching between headsets without the ZoomSwitch. In addition, companies will also be able to save cost in the long run since they don’t need to have so many headsets lying around.

Aurvana Live! Headphones from Creative
Even though most people are addicted to iPod earpieces, there are some that want some bigger and better headphones. Like those ear cushioned headphones that we had to use back in the seventies.
The Aurvana Live! (exclamation point required) is one of the latest headphones from Creative. They have optimally contoured earcups in order to minimize internal sound distortion for accurate playback. These headphones can seal off all external noise and has a composite bio-cellulose diaphragm for “crystal clear and detail highs, coupled with deep, rich bass”.
I got a chance to try them out, and man, they played very, very well. I put in Transformers, and I was totally shut out from the rest of the world. I wouldn’t be wearing the Aurvana Live! listening to my iPod while crossing the street in New York City, but this is the perfect way to block out the rest of the world with your entertainment experience.
