Plezo PM-220 shatters modern rotation convention by going for a full 360 degrees, allowing you to watch your screen in whatever funky screen configuration your heart desires. We suppose the extra flexibility could help out south paws and the like, but other limitations like a 2.2-inch screen and 1GB of flash memory arent helping Plezos case of using this thing as a video player. The dual headphone jacks, FM radio, voice recording and games are all nice touches, but were pretty sure there are better ways to spend 109,000 won (about $117) in the great land of South Korea.

Download Free technews From viewzoft The folks over at PC Perspective finally got their hands on the Asus G2 gaming lappy we first saw all the way back in October, and while its got a couple trick features, its also hot, heavy, and held back by a midrange GPU. Based on the massive Asus A7J, the G2 bumps the processor to a 2GHz Intel T7200 Core 2 Duo and the GPU to a 512MB ATI Mobility Radeon X1700, repackaging the whole deal in a slick metal case with an integrated OLED screen (no SideShow though, bummer), 1.3 megapixel webcam, and side-mounted red LED strips that throb with DirectX activity. Flossing all that gamer style doesnt get you anywhere if you cant run with the big boys, though, and thats where PC Perspective found that that X1700 just wasnt always up to the task, slowing down considerably during some of their tests. But despite this and some other potential dealbreakers (like being the heaviest 17-inch laptop PC Perspective has ever tested and requiring near-total disassembly to upgrade the RAM) the G2 left a favorable impression, offering competent, if not great, performance with more than a dash of style for $1900. Peep the read link for the full review. ( Read More )
Download Free technews From viewzoft While were no strangers to the crazy robots people build out of LEGOs, Daniele Benedettellis LEGO Johnny Five has got to be the most awe-inspiring brickwork weve seen in a while. The NXT-based bot actually contains two NXT units that communicate via Bluetooth to provide Mr. Five a full range of motion from his 6 motors and as much input as he can handle from up to 8 sensors. Benedettelli built the model after careful study of Johnny Five photos to determine his precise measurements, and two previous attempts. While we applaud all this effort, we cant imagine how much time its going to take her to plate version 4 in gold. Check the read link for plans and videos of Johnny in action. ( Read More )
