8-bit generation - Dingoo A320 - "China's own PSP"
TECHAFFAIR will get one of these Dingoo A320‘s “China’s own PSP” and let you know. So far the SNES and Neo Geo emulators (pre-equipped, nothing to load) are laggy but its the emulator not the hardware. The Game Boy Advance is flawless from reviews. There are some US owners that booted up Linux on the unit so it’s capable of an operating system.

Pop a $10usd 8gb mini SD in the unit and you have every game ever made for every 8-bit-32-bit system in existence.

They’re about $90usd shipped on ebay. We want to play Street Fighter II, Gradius, Metal Slug, and Super Mario World!

9.7-inch display w/ auto-rotating screen, Amazon's Kindle DX!

Jeff Bezos (CEO of Amazon) unveiled the much-anticipated large-screen Kindle e-reader in a lecture hall Wednesday at the downtown Pace University. Called the Kindle DX, the new device is geared toward readers of personal and professional documents, newspapers, and magazines – and textbooks, a potentially huge target market.

A few highlights: a native PDF reader, very cool rotating display, 3,500-document capacity, large display and a beautiful white, sleek design.

Is THIS the future for the newspaper industry??? I can’t help but think, why not just ‘Google News’ your daily dose of drama. Thoughts please…

Panasonic Lumix GH1 vs. Canon 5D Mark II (Battle of the 1080p HD SLR Cameras)!

Panasonic LUMIX DMC-GH1, a Creative HD Hybrid, Offers Professional-Level Still Photos and HD Video Performance Yet is Easy Enough for Entry-Level DSLR Consumers

Panasonic LUMIX DMC-GH1, a Creative HD Hybrid, Offers Professional-Level Still Photos and HD Video Performance Yet is Easy Enough for Entry-Level DSLR Consumers

I’m the proud owner of a Canon 5D Mark II – the quality is ridiculous (in a good, great way). As you may or may not know, the Mark II sports a 1080p H.264 video mode.

Panasonic recently announced that their latest Lumix, the GH1, will deliver a similar video format:

“Compatible with the Micro Four Thirds System standard, the new LUMIX GH1 features advanced video photography functions, such as the ability to record High Definition (HD) AVCHD 1080p/24p video.* In addition, the new LUMIX GH1 comes with a newly developed long-zoom interchangeable lens – the LUMIX G VARIO HD 14-140mm/F4.0-5.8 ASPH./MEGA O.I.S. This lens was specifically designed to support HD movie recording and features a silent motor and continuous auto focusing (AF) capability; two features which distinguish the LUMIX GH1 from DSLRs that offer HD video recording capabilities.

“Photographers of all levels – professionals, amateurs and beginners – will be stunned by the range of creative possibilities that the LUMIX GH1 creates in the world of high-quality photography and HD video. Users will be equally amazed by the camera’s easy-to-use design and small size,” said David Briganti, National Marketing Manager, Imaging, Panasonic Consumer Electronics Company. “Beyond its creative potential, the LUMIX GH1, a sister product to the award-winning LUMIX G1, is also innovative and differentiates itself from the pack by recording High Definition video with continuous AF, an indispensable feature for practical video recording.”

What do YOU think?

IMO: NOTHING beats a Canon EOS 5D Mark II 21.1MP Full Frame CMOS Digital SLR Camera…
