Mister Tipster MT425 and MT410 RSS and email tickers

Filed under:

Mister Tipster just loosed two new models into their dedicated RSS ticker lineup including a low-ender. You know, just in case the original Mister Tipster’s 4 lines of black-on-green monochrome text was too, erm, swank for your needs. The $150 MT425 “Pro” and $100 MT410 “Basic” (pictured) models each measure 4.5 x 3 x 3-inches and tap into your RSS feeds over USB like the original with new access to POP3 and IMAP4 email and third-party software like Winamp. Still seems like a lot for a little.

Philips preparing assault on Apple TV

Filed under:

Now this is Interesting. According to TrustedReviews, Euro-powerhouse Philips was showing off this dedicated media streamer at Computex last week. The brushed aluminum enclosure packs HDMI and optical audio outs for your home entertainment rig and a 40GB disk which can be expanded via USB 2.0. Unfortunately, neither the interface nor the specs were on show. Now, anyone care to guess what that stubby slot is for? Read-on for a picture of the backside.

Camera Shutter Life Expectancy Database: feel free to chime in

Filed under:

We’ve seen all sorts of unscientific testing with regard to digital cameras, and while getting your facts straight about megapixels and dust-sensor effectiveness is just dandy, how’s about knowing how many clicks your trusty shooter has left? An online database has apparently been created to track this very statistic, and while manufacturers will typically give you an estimate, we all know it’s the real-world results that count. The site lists a smorgasbord of cameras and allows users to chime in and inform the world how many clicks their snapper has survived, and while we wouldn’t lay our money on your device necessarily living up to the standards set by others, it’s a fair judge nonetheless. Go on, we know you’re curious, give the read link a visit and toss your experience on up to keep the data flowin’.

Darfon’s Bluetooth keypad is bigger than your cellphone

Filed under: , ,

Computex is over but we couldn’t just walk away without giving you a peep at this Bluetooth keypad from Darfon. The idea here is simple yet blissfully absurd: wear the device as a lanyard to dial calls while your cellphone remains tucked away in your man-bag or she-sack. We’re apparently supposed to overlook the fact that it’s about the same size as your cellphone. Hey Darfon, meet Palm — we hear that they share your interest in superfluous “companion” devices.
