Posted by: Gina Permalink Source Go Digital!
I was amazed at the capabilities of this machine; the clarity of sound it duplicated and the ease of operation were fantastic. My music mixes never sounded better. Every month or so, some new technological invention, particularly in the digital realm, appears on the market. For today's young people, it is common place to have at their disposal anything they find appealing. For some of us "older folks" to say the least, we are amazed, at times, even overwhelmed by all the "techno" gizmos on the market. I feel like a kid in a candy store when I research all the new devices out there, but I am a rare bird for my age and sex. I'm one of the very few women who pine over "electronics" instead of the latest fashion craze. I constantly search the internet for information on all the new products. I want them all, but can only afford a few of these new devices. But, when narrowing down my choices, I commonly opt to keep up with all the music related products for enjoyable listening and more efficient and advanced ways to take my music and recording to the next level......... Posted by: Gina Permalink Source Swap Your CDs
If you have a bunch of CDs, DVDs, or Video Games lying around collecting dust then you could probably just sell them - but have you ever considered trading them for other discs? SwitchDiscs allows you to communicate with other people who want to trade their stuff via a legal peer-to-peer trading network. There is no cash required trading, instead "SwitchBucs" are used for a credit system. However, you can optionally purchase SwitchBucs as well. Overall it's an interesting system, but personally I would rather sell my media on eBay or Half.com, but I'm sure many people would prefer this method - especially becuase there are no fees involved. ........

Holografika supplies a proprietary 3D holographic display technology, called the HoloVizio- system, which provides multiple viewers with a natural 3D view without the need for special glasses or tracking equipment. How does HoloVizio- work? Well, for starters, it is not the same as so-called auto-stereoscopic 3D systems, developed by companies such as Sharp, which involve showing a viewer two slightly different 2D images - one for the left eye and one for the right eye - and the viewer's brain fusing them to produce a single perceived 3D image. Holografika's approach aims to mimic that of a viewer looking straight out of a conventional window - which is essentially a 2D object - but nevertheless perceiving the outside environment as a perfect 3D image. In this situation, the viewer perceives a 3D effect because the light patterns at each point on the window change subtly as per what is behind it and the angle it is being viewed. Consequently, HoloVizio- involves a viewer looking at a 'digital window'. Tibor Balogh, Holografika's CEO and Founder, explains: "It uses a holographic screen. When beams inside the device strike the screen, each point of the holoscreen is able to emit light beams of a different colour and intensity in different directions".........

The MHP-KDB project set out to help equipment manufacturers, and software and content developers adopt the best such standard, says Klaus Merkel, who directed the IST-funded project. The Digital Video Broadcasting - Multimedia Home Platform (DVB-MHP) is an open middleware system that enables TV sets to receive and run interactive, Java-based applications, broadcast via satellite, cable, and terrestrial mode. It is also adapted to internet protocol TV. "MHP will allow full interoperability of various equipment and applications. It's adoption is the crucial factor to allow progress in deployment of interactive digital TV in Europe," says Merkel. "We wanted to help simplify and accelerate the technical take-up of MHP by making expertise and solutions available to newcomers, as well as to more experienced users," says Merkel. The project, which ended in March, created an online database containing code samples for programmers, tools for developing and testing applications, and technical explanations.........

The premise of the show is for teams of dancers to compete for the best routine, with certain steps presented in DDR's classic flying magic arrow style to encourage viewer participation. Music will be provided by a live house band, who will also serve as the hosts. Being a big fan of DDR myself, it's exciting to watch the franchise cross over to an even broader medium (even though I'll likely never get up to watch it). Even better is CBS's commitment to encouraging young people to become more active and lead a healthy lifestyle. Watch for this to air mid-September.........

Have movies delivered directly to your TV. All you need is the $199 setbox by Moviebeam, which comes loaded with 100 movies in HDTV or DVD quality with Dolby 5.1 surround sound, perfect for your home theatre setup. After that you can get up to 10 movies a week at prices ranging from $1.99 to $3.99 per movie. Moviebeam totes the product as "brilliant new way to rent and watch movies at home. Get movies delivered directly to your TV - no cable, satellite, or computer is required". This should have you wondering by now, how the movies are actually delivered to your Moviebeam box. The company has patented a digital wireless service that "beams" the movies into your home. There are no subscription fees, no late fees, nothing to return ever!!! The only downside, you have 24 hours to watch each movie you rent, but you can watch it as a number of times as you want to during the rental period, and Moviebeam while avalable throughout the US is still not available in all areas. Check availability for your area before you run out to get a set @ Moviebeam. Blockbuster & Netflix watch out!!!........ Posted by: Gina Permalink Source Eizo ColorEdge CE240W 24" LCD
The Dell and Apple 30" displays can only muster a 700:1 contrast ratio and the brightness of both 30" displays is 400 cd/m2. That makes the Eizo the highest contrast and brightest monitor you are likely to find. Gaming on the 24" Eizo is a dream. The 8ms response time is fast enough that ghosting and smearing is not an issue, while the exceptional brightness and contrast ensure that the picture is exactly as the guys intended your game to look when they programmed it. Native resolution is 1920 x 1200 and the Eizo also has a great 178 degree viewing angle. If size is not all you are after, the Eizo is simply an excellent monitor for work and play.........
