MSI Wind U100 sold as Medion akoya mini in Germany at Aldi Technology News, Electronics Buy Guide and Gadget Review Discount retail giant Aldi will offer the Medion akoya mini Netbook starting July 3rd. The Medion akoya mini is actually an MSI Wind U100. This is great news for Netbook fans in Germany. They can pick up an MSI Wind for 399 Euro (~$619).
The $499 MSI Wind is delayed in the U.S. until June 27th. The Aldi/Medion deal could be part of the reason for the delay, as I'm sure Aldi demands quite some inventory.

Olympus PT-E02 Review - Some Gadgets Need Testing on the Maldives

Topic:

Olympus PT-E02 Review - Some Gadgets Need Testing on the Maldives Technology News, Electronics Buy Guide and Gadget Review The Camera experts at LetsGoDigital found the perfect excuse for a nice vacation on the Madives. They needed to test the Olympus PT-E02 Underwater housing with the Olympus E-330 DSLR. Yeah right. You could also just dunk it in a bathtub to see if it is waterproof.

Quote from the review:
"The buttons on the Olympus PTE02 underwater case work well. Each button on the camera can also be operated on the underwater case. To operate the menu, you use buttons of various lengths and this is extremely handy under water. It enables you to find the right button for changing settings quickly by touch. To change shutter speed, you use a big dial that operates the command dial on the camera.
It is a pity that if you are photographing in the manual setting that the aperture must also be adjusted and that two buttons have to be operated at once. "
