Sony HT-CT350 & HT-CT150 3.1 channel sound bars
Sound bars are getting cheaper and cheaper and today Sony announced two new ’3D capable’ devices, the Sony HT-CT350 ($400) and the HT-CT150 ($300). I would say that you should get a good demo before you go and buy any of these as these ‘true 3D experiences’ can sound really bad. Sony also unveiled a new 5.1 channel HT-SF470 home theater system that can be yours for $550. More information and pics inside.
HP Designjet 3D Printer
If you got $17,500 to spare you can enjoy printing 3D objects with the brand new HP Designjet 3D printer that will be launched within the next couple of weeks. I think that this is a very cool thing and hopefully the prices will be consumer friendly in 10 years or so.
The Designjet 3D is based on Stratasys’s Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology, which turns three-dimensional CAD drawings into tangible prototypes by extruding partially molten ABS plastic in extremely fine layers one atop the other, forming the entire 3-D model in a single piece from the ground up. Designjet 3D will print in ivory-colored plastic only while Designjet Color 3D will print single-color parts in up to eight different colors (we’re not sure why you can’t just put a different hue of ABS plastic in the Designjet 3D).

iPad review roundup
iPad reviews are popping up everywhere and most of them are very positive of the device. Most of the reviews has pricing as the biggest issue, and even though you can get the cheapest model for $499, most of you guys probably want the 3G version with more storage and then you’ll end up close to the $1000 mark. Here’s a roundup of some of the best reviews, including a video review from IGN:
Delivery from Geekware
A few days ago I ordered the nice Asteroids clock and a few other cool things from Geekware, and I just wanted to share some photos of these nice products. I think the Asteroids clock is a really nice.
Here’s the floppy disk notebook ($9.95)
And a nice little keyboard keychain made out of an old ‘Home’ button ($4.95)
A keyboard magnet set ($9.95)
And a nice little business card holder which in fact is an old compact cassette crystal case.
Check out more stuff over at Geekware.

Atari Game Cartridge Clocks
Over at Geekware you can get hold of some very nice original Atari game cartridges that have been converted into desk clocks. They are $24.95 and a piece and I just bought the ‘Asteroids’ cartridge so I guess that you have to choose between the ‘Ms Pacman’ or ‘Centipede’ if you want one of these lovely clocks.

I got control – iPhone remote
‘I got control’ is a new, clever iPhone device that can turn your phone (or iPod touch / iPad) into a IR remote. The attachement measures 50mm (L) x 29.6mm (W) x 10.4mm (H) and it weighs 14 grams (half an ounce). The device has a price tag of $69.95, so it’s a bit pricey but it can be useful if you want to use your phone to take full control of your media equipment. You need to get the application from the App store as well. I guess you can have quite some fun with it too, just take it to your local sports bar and start switching the channels…

The DM 686 is the baby speaker in the british loudspeaker company Bowers & Wilkins 600 series. It’s considered to be one of the best pound for pound speaker in the small segment and I got a pair of them yesterday so I as usual, I’ll share a few photos from the unboxing.
