When graphic designers and artists who work on a computer get ready to get to work, they almost always reach for some sort of graphic tablet. The tablets allow them to draw on the computer screen and make digital art creation much easier.

Genius has announced that it has added two new graphics tablets to its line of products called the G-Pen M609X and the G-Pen M712X. the two tablets can operate in dual mode, which means they can be turned in either portrait or landscape mode.

When I was a kid making home movies required a massive camcorder and a giant VCR that you wore like a purse. It was a lot of work for dad to record the flag football game. Today camcorders are tiny things that you can carry without even noticing they are there and many of them even capture HD resolution video.

Genius has announced its first camcorder called the G-Shot HD520. As the camera name implies it records HD video in 720p resolution in MPEG-4/H.264 format. The little camera weighs less than six ounces and can capture 11-megapixels still shots along with video.

There is something a bit cheeky about a company who calls itself Genius. Still, I have looked at several Genius products over the years and for the most part they tend to perform well. The latest product from Genius has been announced and it is called the SP-T1200 2.0 Touch Speaker System.

As you might surmise from the name of the product, the speakers are controlled with the touch of a finger. Users are able to control the volume, bass, and treble by sliding a finger across the front of the speakers. The slide bar illuminates as you move the finger across the bar to show what level settings are at.

Genius, a division of KYE Systems, is releasing a new digital pad for artists, graphic designers and generally anyone who likes to digitally doodle. The Genius PenSketch 9X12 is priced at around $249 and should be available now.

The Genius PenSketch 9X12 is a pen tablet style digital pad for letting users sketch screen art and other forms of free-hand design. It has a large work area and is cordless so that users can work more comfortably. A rubber coated cordless pen with two programmable buttons can be put into the pen-holder when not in use. This pen can control all kinds of shapes and is built with 1024-level of pressure to make thickness control, editing and design easier to do.
