ArtStation Pro Turns Your iPad Into A Mini Home Theater

When you predictably get tired of holding your iPad while watching a movie, iLuv will come to the rescue with their new iMM514 ArtStation Pro ‘dock’ which turns your tablet into a miniature home theater. The iPad itself attaches to an articulated, swivelling arm ensuring it’s always positioned at the optimal angle. And it can be switched between landscape and portrait orientations for watching videos, or browsing a website.

The ArtStation Pro’s hefty base also incorporates what looks to be a generously sized speaker, if you prefer to use it as just a stereo. And an included wireless remote provides elementary functions like skipping tracks or adjusting the volume, while magnetically sticking to the back of the unit so it doesn’t go MIA when not in use. It’s also compatible with iPhones and iPod Touches, though it seems a little oversized to be used with those smaller devices.

View Sonic does 3D With V3D245 Monitor

ViewSonic is somewhat like the Vizio of the monitor world – they tend to roll out pretty great hardware without breaking the bank when it comes to pricing, keeping customers everywhere happy. Of course, it still lacks the clout of far more conventional brands, but ViewSonic is certainly getting there from where they are at the moment. Stereoscopic 3D is said to be the next big thing, what with huge 3D capable TVs hitting the market already for sometime, and ViewSonic jumps aboard that bandwagon with their new 3D Vision V3D245 Monitor.

Just what can you expect from the 3D Vision LED Monitor? Well, for starters, it will come with NVIDIA’s 3D Vision Wireless Glasses alongside an integrated 3D Vision Emitter which is said to usher in a new era of 3D entertainment. This will be a 24″ LED monitor, so it ought to offer more than adequate viewing real estate regardless of the line of your work – unless, of course, you’re in the desktop publishing line or are part of the digital artist mutiny.

Not only do you get to enjoy LED technology that is advanced, the V3D245 Monitor will also feature astonishing power-saving performance. Hardware specifications read in an impressive manner, sporting a stunning 120Hz frame refresh rate, ultra-fast 2ms video response time, and HDMI 1.4 input, making it more or less perfect to cater for immersive 2D and 3D entertainment – in addition to gaming, of course.

New Verbatim Unleashes Ergo Mouse

Verbatim is more often than not a name which we combine with flash memory as well as portable storage (remember floppies back in the day?), but here we see them branching out into peripherals such as a mouse – specifically speaking, the Ergo Mouse. Verbatim’s Ergo Mouse will take the wireless route to keep up with the times, making sure you do not end up with a tangled mess at the end of the day.

This is an ergonomic mouse that seems to cater only to right handers as you can see from the image above, so southpaws will have to look elsewhere – or just pester the folks over at Verbatim to roll out a left-handed version! Featuring a convenient thumb maintain (for your right hand, of course), it offers what Verbatim calls to be “the ultimate comfortable computing experience.” The Ergo Mouse has an ultra-smooth, rubberized grip and scroll wheel that were specially developed with console in mind, making you control your computer easily without batting an eyelid.

Apart from that, this ergonomically designed mouse will work via the 2.4GHz wireless frequency for lag-free cursor movement. Gamers would do well to give this a miss though – especially hardcore ones, since it won’t be able to hold any macros at all, and there aren’t any weights for you to insert or remove to suit your gaming needs. This is purely a workstation mouse, to put it in a nutshell.

The Ergo Mouse will ship with a nano receiver that works great by remaining plugged into your notebook via USB at all times, so you need not worry about it snapping off on your travels or anything like that. Available in blue, red and black colors, it will be powered by a couple of AAA batteries which surprisingly comes with each $29.99 purchase. Normally, hardware manufacturers don’t throw in batteries as you would need to get those yourself. Good job, Verbatim

Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive

Iomega – the name that is often related with data storage, is back with a new device that targets Apple’s Mac. Dubbed the Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive, this particular storage device comes with the tagline, “Mac Users Need It, the Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive has It”. Hmmm, sounds attractive comprehensive, where it will not only help stash your precious data away, it will also make sure your iPad, iPhone and iPod juiced up at whatever time you are on-the-go.

The Iomega Mac Companion Hard Drive will sport a couple of FireWire 800 interfaces alongside a USB 2.0 hub, in addition to 2TBs or 3TBs of storage space with a fast 7200 RPM hard drive inside. Not only that, it sports Iomega safety Suite with Mac-specific software.

This has been positioned to be a speedy, large capacity desktop hard drive that has been specially styled to work with the latest Mac computers, sporting a first-of-its-kind convenient high-powered port as well which will be able to juice up your iPad, iPhone and iPod. Not only that, it will also boast of a selection of computer interfaces that will help you hook up to peripherals such as a printer or other external storage device.

You will be able to choose form 2TB and 3TB capacities, relying on a fast 7200 RPM 3.5″ hard drive formatted HFS+ that will make it play nice with Mac computers the moment you purchase it, fresh right out of the box.

As with everything else in life, there is a price to pay – and you will need to fork out $195 for the 2TB model, while the 3TB capacity model will set you back by $295

Skytex Primer Pocket Media Tablet Is On Team Android

I guess it is more or less a given that the iPod touch is the undeniable portable media player, taking over the regular iPod’s reign many years ago. Since the iPod hit the market and catapulted right to the top of the food chain, nothing else released since then by other manufacturers actually managed to extricate the iPod from its lofty position. That is just the way some of the things are in the world, but perhaps things might change in the future. For the moment, even Skytex’s Primer Pocket media tablet is no match, never mind that it runs off the Android operating system from Google.

The Primer Pocket will be a 4.3″ media tablet that does blur the line between a smartphone and a portable media player. While it is far too small to be painstaking as a tablet, we don’t think the 4.3″ display on this without cellular capability qualifies it for being a smartphone, either, letting it remain within no man’s land, so to speak. What else can the Primer Pocket hold that might just increase your interest level in it?

You will just have to wait until August 18th arrives as the Primer Pocket will hit store shelves by then, costing you $99 in the process. Sounds like an affordable figure, although this is one case where you do get what you pay for – a 4.3” multi-touch display, wireless 802.11b/g/n connectivity, a built-in G-sensor, as well as Android 2.2 Froyo right out of the box. I’m still stumped as to why there is not Android 2.3 Gingerbread released for this, perhaps Skytex thought it wasn’t necessary to do so.

Hardware specifications of the Primer Pocket include a 4GB internal flash drive, while you can top that up by another 16GB if you decide to throw in a microSD memory card of that capacity. Overall, the Primer Pocket is slim in nature and ought to fit into most pockets. This seems to be a smartphone that has its cellular functions turned off.

Brando USB Optical Mouse Serves As Digital Scale

We have seen a lot of interesting products come out of Brando before, and they are often quite useful in certain situations. For example, there was the Bike Crash Cam, good for lawsuits concerning a two-wheeled bike accidents.

This USB optical mouse also seems good for only certain situations. As you can see, there is a working scale on this mouse. It has a cover so you are not continuously weighing your fingers.

The problem that I see is that I don’t think I really need a device like this. While it is handy to have a scale on one’s desktop, I don’t really need one that can only go up to 500 grams. I wonder if there is an app for something like this.

I suppose that if you are in the business of shipping small items, this would come in handy. After all, I do a lot of business on eBay, and I have a postal scale for that. I don’t even think that I could put an envelope on this.

However, if you are in a business where weighing small things is important (and I’m not talking about drugs), this USB Optical Mouse with Pocket Digital Scale might come in handy. You should be able to get it from Brando here  for a price of $22.
