CyberPower Announces Core i7 Gaming Notebooks

Topic:

Do you love a gamer? I mean really, deeply, $2000 love them? If so, it might be worth dipping into the ol' 401k to fund this gift.

All of them come stock with Intel's new PM55 Express chipset. They also pack Intel's Turbo Boost technology.

You can choose to upgrade the chipset with an Nvidia GTS 250. The base-model starts with 4 GB of DDR3 RAM and 500 GB of space. The cheapest configuration costs $1499.

The Cyberus ID700WTA Smart Info Engine; You Got Your E-Reader In My Media Player

Topic:

E-Readers are still a fairly young type of product, which means the market is currently glutted with different company's takes on the idea. Some of them, like the Barnes & Noble nook, are really cool looking gadgets that could end up establishing an e-reader dynasty. Others, like the Sony Reader, are about as exciting and inspired as a pair of flannel pajama bottoms. I'm not sure yet which category Cyberus' new ID700WTA “Smart Info Engine” falls under, but I've got strong suspicions it could end up being awesome.

The ID700 isn't a dedicated e-reader, of course. Cyberus bills it as being a hybrid reader and personal media player. I think they need to stop splitting hairs and just call the damned thing a tablet PC, but that's just me. The ID700 has a 7” LCD screen, and comes with a protective folding cover that makes it look slightly more like a book. While Cyberus doesn't run their own e-book store, this reader can handle most e-book formats and, as an added blessing, can read PDF files.

Kopin Golden-i Wearable Microdisplay: Cyberpunk As Hell

Topic:

Have you ever wanted to look like an extra in a cheesy sci-fi channel movie (starring Bruce Campbell)? If so, Kopin's new headset might be for you. At first glance, the Golden-i looks like a very overbuilt mic+headset combo. That impression dies as soon as you notice the .34" SVGA display built into the headband.

That's right; the Golden-i is a full-on wearable computer with Bluetooth, Windows CE 6.0, 6 GB of memory and microSD support. It has (presumably) some sort of accelerometer, because The Inquirer (Via Engadget) says that you navigate using head movements as well as (less-effective) voice commands. Kopin isn't ready to release yet, but they say that the price should come in "under $2,000", which isn't at all reassuring.

Project Natal + Sony Motion Controller + HMD = Johnny Mnemonic Cyberspace

Topic:

I was into Cyberspace and Virtual Reality back in the late Eighties and early Nineties. William Gibson Cyberpunk books described the future of interacting with computers how I thought it should be.
In 1995 William Gibson's Johnny Mnemonic got released as movie starring Keanu Reeves. The Cyberspace UI was ok depicted in the movie, of course your own imagination is always better. After working in the 3D and Virtual Reality field I totally got frustrated with it as the interaction possibilities in 3D just plain sucked. Read more
