Yesterday, we told you about the Sony Vaio NW notebook with Blu-Ray for $880. Today we have the comparable Acer Aspire AS5739G with Blu-Ray for $750. You’ll get a 15.6-inch LED LCD (1366×768), 2.1Ghz Core2 Duo processor, 4GB of DDR3 RAM and a GeForce GT130 graphics card with an extra 1GB of memory.

It also features an 8X Blu-ray drive, 250GB hard drive, Dolby 5.1 output, fingerprint recognition and multitouch support. It’s not the lightest laptop, but it is decent looking. And available now.

As we all knew, Apple’s unveiled a new iPhone today at WWDC, the iPhone 3G S. The “s” stands for speed. Clever. Although it looks almost exactly like the 3G, it’s…Well, faster. Some tasks are almost four times faster. Data speeds have been upped to 7.2Mbps HSDPA, and the camera is now a 3 megapixel unit with tap-to-autofocus and auto white balance. It now supports 30fps VGA video recording with editing features.

You’re also getting a built-in compass, Nike+ support, and a new battery that offers 5 hours of 3G talk time and 9 hours of WiFi internet use. That’s not all. Holding down the home button now enables a new voice control interface that lets you make calls or even control iTunes.

iBUYPOWER never stands still. And today the manufacturer announced the Battalion 101 CZ-10 Premium Gaming Notebook, adding yet another high-powered option to their all-star lineup. The notebook features an Intel Montevina Core 2 Duo Mobile Dual-Core processor, an ATI Radeon HD 4650 graphics card, DDR3 memory and more.

The 15.6-inch WXGA widescreen LCD display features a 1,366 x 768 resolution. Some other features include 4GB memory, a 500GB hard drive and several inputs including 4-USB ports and an HDMI port, a 3-in-1 card reader, finger print scanner and 2-megapixel webcam are also included.

We reported on a nail printer previously, of the Barbie variety. Apparently this is the new hot thing. I wouldn’t know myself since I’m not a girl, goth or anyone else who paints their nails. But hey why not, we have printers for everything else.

Nilo is apparently all about “Nail Fashion”. And having taken years to perfect their nail printing devices, they are now ready to sell them to you so you can start your own business etc. The printers will run you from $2,999.00 for the standard all the way up to $3,544.00 for their deluxe printing kit.

Flash drives are useful little gadgets that allow computer users to easily transfer data between multiple machines and act like the floppy discs of the past. The problem is that moving sensitive files on a flash drive can make for trouble is the drive is unsecured.

Ennova Direct has announced that it has been granted a new patent on a flash drive that features a retractable USB connector. The flash drive has a flip up lid that covers the small OLED screen featured on the drive.

You never know what kind of deals to expect from Best Buy Mobile. What price you see for an item depends when you go since stuff is always changing. Today you might see an Instinct that will cause you to claim bankruptcy, tomorrow you might see the miniature version of the original Instinct for cheap.

According to a new flyer, the Samsung Instinct S30 will be just $49.99 on contract at Best Buy. That’s $80 less than what Sprint will supposedly ask for it on April 19th. We’re keeping our fingers crossed that it’s true.

Tokyo-based designer Mac Funamizu is at it again. This time he has come up with a concept design for a phone that Wonder Woman would love to have in her invisible jet. The Glassy Glassy cell phone concept.

The entire phone is transparent until you turn it on. That’s when the screen and keypad light up so you can press the buttons accordingly. It’s sure to get lost easier and blend into its surroundings. Where the battery is, I have no idea. Hopefully, its stronger than glass.

The MOTORAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition is constructed using plastic, metal and glass with a gloss black finish that is sure to get all smudged up with fingerprints. The handset will be available as a special edition in Malaysia.

Priced at $384, the phone is pretty much the same as the normal version of the phone. The MOTORAZR2 V9 Ferrari also features special edition Ferrari screensavers, wallpapers and ringtones if you’re into that sort of thing.

The Asus Eee PC1004DN is the first Eee PC to feature a Super-Multi optical disc drive, which lets users read and write optical discs for convenient data back-ups. A power-efficient Express Card slot provides expansion capabilities, along with plug-and-play compatibility and auto-configuration access.

The Asus Super Hybrid Engine (SHE) technology will give you an extended battery life while on-the-go. The Asus Eee PC1004DN also features the Asus Data Security System (ADSM) which gives users the option of logging-on using their fingerprints. It will recognize multiple fingerprints belonging to the same user and allow you to encrypt a single folder with the same security system.

Acer launches the Tempo line of mobile phones. The four new phones include the X960, F900, M900 and DX900. They are all touch-enabled and based on the Windows Mobile OS. The first set of devices will be based on the existing version of Microsoft’s Windows Mobile OS.

The M900 comes with a QWERTY keyboard, a 3.8-inch screen, and a fingerprint scanner. It also has HSDPA (High-Speed Download Packet Access) support, built-in GPS (Global Positioning System), and a 5-megapixel camera. The F900 also comes with a 3.8-inch screen and features a 3.2-megapixel camera, and you also get faster uploads using HSUPA (High-Speed Uplink Packet Access) and support for Wi-Fi. Both phones will start shipping at the end of March or the beginning of April.

Sorry guys. This one’s for the girls. The Barbie Digital Nail Printer is part of Mattel’s new line of products called “beautronics”. This Nail Printer is designed to print images directly onto your fingernails using thermal inkjet technology and specially-formulated cosmetic grade ink.

Just insert your finger into the machine and a digital camera inside transmits an image of your fingernail to the computer. With the included Barbie software you can select from 1000’s of image designs and see a preview of the image you choose superimposed on your nail so you see exactly what it would look like on your nail.

I was never really into fingerprint authentication on my devices. The first thing I ever purchased with a fingerprint scanner was my Dell XPS M1330 laptop. I can safely say fingerprint authentication on my laptop sucks. It usually takes three or more swipes to get the reader to accept my fingerprints and I can log in by typing my password faster than by swiping.

Some folks really like the idea of fingerprint authentication though and Fujitsu has announced the first waterproof cell phone to offer fingerprint authentication. Why waterproof you wonder? Well, I know a lady who has dropped not one or two iPhones into the toilet, but three. Yeah that’s a crappy iPhone.

Italy’s Olidata has announced it’s new Conte ultraportable, which targets 13.3-inch ultra-thin laptops. It looks like this one will be available in two different versions: One with a 16:10, 1280×800 display, and one with a 16:9, 1366×768 display. Each will come equipped with a small Core 2 Duo processor, optional built-in 3G or WiMAX, and a battery life that promises more than four hours (seven with an extended battery).

The 16:10 model will also give you some bonuses like Intel Turbo Memory, fingerprint reader, backlit keyboard, and 3GB of RAM standard. There’s no word on a release here in the states, but both models will be hitting Europe in May for under $1,300.

A common gift people will give themselves for the holiday season is a new phone. With broadband networks getting faster by the minute, a phone that is smart enough to handle surfing the internet, getting email, supporting IM’s and taking pictures becomes more and more attractive. This holiday season we had the opportunity to take a look at a couple of Palm’s smartphones, and in particular we spent some time with the new Olive-colored Palm Centro.

If you’re in the market for your first smartphone or you’re just looking for something that’s slick and easy to use with broadband access you will be well-served to take a look at the Palm Centro. Palm has been getting some mixed reviews lately when placed against some of the latest in smartphone technology such as RIM’s Blackberry or Apple’s iPhone, but we found the Centro to be a refreshing and fun device, and at just the right price.

This IBM concept laptop looks like something from an alternate dimension. It’s the kind of laptop we might be using had the cold war never ended and spies were everywhere and issued these laptops by Q.

It’s a concept by Nicolas Lehotzky. The most interesting thing about it is the giant security “knob” which is fingerprint activated and allows the laptop to respond only to the owner’s touch, acting as a physical lock. It also has hidden USB ports and a trusty built-in paper shredder. It goes well with the watches depicting the Bond villains.
