NEC has been making displays for computers and digital signage for years. The company of late has been focusing on new green displays that sip power and save money on utility bills. The company has unveiled a new large format display called the P521.

The new display is a 52-inch unit with a full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 and a 2000:1 contrast ratio. The LCD has a brightness of 700 cd/m2 and has integrated thermal controls and a timer to turn it off when not needed.

Hori’s HP3-87 adds an 11.6-inch screen to your PS3 using a wraparound structure. It includes stereo speakers, two headphone jacks, and composite or component input options. The resolution is 1,366 x 768, so it will handle the 16:9 signal with its 500:1 contrast ratio, 7ms response time, and 200 nits of brightness.

Those in Tokyo can get it on May 27, when the HP3-87 goes on sale for ¥26,040 ($276). We aren’t sure when it will have an international release, but hopefully soon, so we can get our PS3s portable too.

If you fancy yourself a developer of accessories for the iPhone or iPod touch, you need the new Cypress Cy8CKIT-023 PSoC Expansion Board Kit for iPhone and iPod. The dev kit promises to make developing new hardware accessories for the devices easier.

The kit is a PSoC that includes the PSoC development board, processor module board, MiniProng 3 debug and evaluation device, and a prototyping cable kit. The Dev kit sells for $249.

Doug Bernards of SoundMan Car Audio in Santa Clarita, California is the first to install an iPad in a car. The car of choice? A Toyota Tacoma pickup. You can check out a video below.

They still need to wire it up to the Audison Bit One sound processor and McIntosh MMC406M 6-channel amp, but they’ve fitted and molded the dash to the iPad. Sure it looks a tad awkward with it’s size and that bezel, but all of your media will be along for the ride right?

Just in case there were any doubts, the folks from Blendtec blenders did prove this week that the new Apple iPad does in fact blend. It wouldn’t actually fit inside the blender in its original shape and took a slight pre-modification, but in the end it did succumb to the powers of the blender to result in a lot of “iPad dust”. Check out the video after the jump:

Lady Gaga. You can’t escape her, no matter what radio station you play or where you are. And people are in love with her out there music videos. Now that she’s hit the bigtime, Lady Gaga now has her own mobile phone devoted to her.

It’s LG’s GB280. The phone comes with some neat wallpapers as well as songs like Paparazzi, Dance in the Dark and Bad Romance. As far as specs, the phone has a 2 megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth, media player, FM, email, browser, Dolby mobile sounds and GSM/EDGE connectivity.

Samsung Electronics will be unveiling some newly colored Corby phones with the Spring Edition. These are aimed at the young crowd who have nothing to do but carry Easter colored phones and text endlessly.

The colors are Lilac Blue, Violet Purple, Freesia Yellow, Peppermint Green and Rosemary Pink. Women-folk and guys who wear pink shirts won’t mind at all. The rest of us will probably pass.

The latest promotional video of the HP Slate takes some well deserved shots digs at Apple’s new iPad. The video below won’t tell you the specs, how much it will cost or when it will be available, but it does make a point to mention that the device supports SD cards and USB connectors, which you won’t find on the iPad by default.

Ironically, the HP Slate is shown running iTunes. HP is trying to tell you that it is just as good, or maybe better than Apple’s iPad. What do you think? We think it looks very promising.

There’s no palm trees, no coconuts, and it won’t play Hawaii 5-0, but this might just be the LG Aloha. Until now we haven’t seen any official pictures of the LG Aloha, but some people think that this may be it.

There’s no way to know for sure, but this one is supposedly called the LU2300, while we heard that the Aloha is the C710. The specs are pretty sweet though boasting a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, Android 2.1, 3.5-inch AMOLED display, 800 x 480 WVGA display, a 5-megapixel camera, GPS, Wi-Fi, 720p video and an Optical trackpad.

The Dell Adamo will normally cost you quite a bit, but if you are more budget minded, you can still get similar style without the huge price tag. Just get a clone. As usual the folks from Shenzhen have you covered.

Looks like this one also has an aluminum chassis, but the color isn’t doing anything for us. They didn’t clone the specs though. Instead you’ll find netbook specs like an Intel Atom N450 1.66GHz processor, an 11.6″ display, 1GB RAM and a 160GB hard drive.

In between donuts and coffee and giving out tickets, police officers face some dangerous situations. The bad guys never sleep. And most of them are armed.

Enter the e-Glove. It can be worn discreetly and will help police detect hidden knives during a pat down. When it detects metal on a person’s uh person, the glove vibrates silently to warn the officer. It costs about $153 per glove right now and is bound to make police safer.

Sony’s new VAIO E series laptops already come in pretty colors, but if you think it still needs more pizazz, you can accessorize it further. Sony is now offering keyboard skins for the laptop. The skins will cost you $20 each and are available in green, blue, purple, black or pink.

Sony Insider says that they even improve the feel of the keyboard, and they seem like they are inclined to hug it tight and not fall off, which is always nice.

Do you like safari type gear? Do you own or plan on owning an iPad? If you answered yes to both, then by all means check out Scottevest. The company is known for their vests and jackets which have tons of gadget-friendly pockets and even conduits for wires.

Well, the company has some big news. Its SeV Travel Vest is now iPad compatible and it will be available July 1st for $100. You can pre-order now. You never know, it may save you from a bullet.

We’ve seen our share of devices modified to use Twitter, so we’re always on the lookout to see what will happen next. Home appliances are just begging for a Twitter makeover, like this Twittering kettle, or Twettle.

Twettle can connect to your home Wi-Fi and has a small display, so you can enter the network password and Twitter details. Twettle also sports an API (application programming interface), allowing you to tweak it and add functionality if you want to get more out of it. You can set Twettle to actiate via a Twitter Direct Message, or have it boil at a lower temperature. Whatever you want.

Dr. Dre and the Boston Red Sox have teamed up for a branded Red Sox version of the popular Beats headphones. At $400, these are about $100 more than a typical Beats.

You could have a whole day at the ballpark for less than that. You’re paying for the logo of course. These should at least come with a ticket to one of their games. Red Sox fans probably won’t mind the price though.
