Virtual piano


Digital Information Development (DID) has developed a highly portable virtual piano that is played with a keyboard consisting of projected laser beams.
The box-shaped device measures about 10 x 3 x 3 cm (4 x 1 x 1 in.) and weighs about 100 grams (3.5 oz.). Using a red semiconductor laser module and holographic optical element, the device projects a 25-key 2-octave keyboard onto the surface in front of it (black surfaces don�t work because they absorb the light). A CMOS camera module and infrared (invisible) red semiconductor laser module detect which keys are touched, and the corresponding notes are emitted from speakers built into the device. Chords can also be played, and DID claims it is technically possible to reproduce weighted notes (but presumably not with this version).

The keyboard has 3 other voices in addition to piano � organ, pipe organ and harpsichord. It is scheduled for release in Japan in November 2006 and is expected to cost around 15,000 yen (US$130).

DID says that a virtual 88-key grand piano can be created by increasing the size of the device.

Samsung OMNIA � {iPhone killer}


Samsung OMNIA is possibly the best ever smartphone that Samsung has ever built.

The Samsung OMNIA is powered by Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional and comes packed with MS Office (PowerPoint, Excel, and Word). Even though the OMNIA is 100% touch screen, Samsung included an optical mouse for ease of navigation - the optical mouse is similar to what you�d find on laptops.

The Samsung OMNIA is ultra-slim measuring 12.5mm and has a platinum look finish. Samsung added details such as elegant hairline patterns on the back of the phone to bring the �perfection in style.�

Also included on the OMNIA is a 5-megapixel CMOS camera with auto-focus (AF), face and smile detection and auto-panorama shot. OMNIA comes in 8 or 16GB memory configuration and additional storage can be added via extendable slot.

Best laptop that�s not a laptop�Dell XPS M2010

Olympus SP-570UZ

If you're not quite ready for a D-SLR but want more than a point and shoot camera can offer, the $500 10 mega pixel Olympus SP-570UZ super zoom provides a respectable middle ground.

This camera packs an easy to adjust 20X zoom lens, Perfect Shot Preview, Shadow Adjustment Technology, and a lot more into its hefty frame.

Image quality, while not stellar, will likely please most shooters and is easily bolstered by flexibility and a wealth of innovative features.

In fact, the SP-570UZ is one of the best all purpose cameras we've seen.

Sony A350

With easy to use controls, an innovative Live View system with an excellent tilting LCD, the 14.2 mega pixel Sony A350 has some nice features that make it stand out from the increasingly crowded entry level D-SLR space.

The biggest problem with this camera is that you can get the nearly identical 10.2MP A300 for $200 less, which makes the A350 a bit of a tough sell.

Is the bump in resolution worth the extra cash? I'm not wholly convinced, but for those who need it for extra large prints, the A350 will do a great job.

Nikon D300

Nikon introduced its D200 D-SLR in 2005, and ever since we've been waiting patiently to see how the next generation could top it.

It can honestly say that the follow up, the 12.3 mega pixels D300, is a worthy successor in so many ways that you may never want to put it down.

With a ton of features and terrific image quality, the D300 stands out as one of the best D-SLR's you can buy. Among the new features are a big 3 inch LCD, a 51 point auto focus system with 3D tracking, two live view modes, and enough manual settings to fill a 421 page user manual.

Although the D300 is still a little expensive for this category, the image quality alone is well worth the cost. Regardless of price, with everything the D300 offers, it easily replaces the D200 as D-SLR.

Sony HDR-CX12 Handycam with Smile Shutter

Sony has introduced the first high-definition camcorder with "Smile Shutter" and face detection technologies. Sony HDR-CX12 features a ClearVid CMOS image sensor that allows the HDR-CX12 to capture 1920�1080 Full HD video or 10 Megapixel still image.

Sony's "Smile Shutter" technology lets you capture smiling photos and record video at the same time. When activated the technology will detect and automatically take a photo when your subject smiles - without having to switch to photo mode. It is powered by Sony�s BIONZ imaging processor and comes with a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 12x optical zoom lens and Super SteadyShot optical image stabilization. It has a 2.7-inch LCD display. The HDR-CX12 supports Sony Memory Stick PRO Duo media and any Memory Stick PRO Duo (Mark2) media cards.

The HDR-CX12 Memory Stick Handycam camcorder can record full 1920 x 1080 HD video and 10-megapixel photos on Sony Memory Stick PRO Duo media and any Memory Stick PRO Duo media cards. "Roughly the size of a soda can", Sony claims easy transfer of video and stills from media cards to a compatible PC to share via email, uploading to the internet or burning to disc.

In addition the camcorder offers a ClearVid CMOS sensor, Sony's BIONZ imaging processor, a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar 12x optical zoom lens and Super SteadyShot optical image stabilisation. The model has a 2.7-inch LCD screen, Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround sound recording and a built-in zoom microphone. Complete with a 4GB Memory Stick PRO Duo, Handycam Station cradle and PC software, the HDR-CX12 camcorder will be in American stores in early August for about $900.

Canon Pixma iP2600 Photo Printer

The Pixma iP2600 is Canon's inkjet photo printer for users on a budget. The retail price is $49.99, replacing The Pixma iP1800 as its entry-level, straightforward printer with limited features. As expected in a baseline product, the iP2600 lacks a PictBridge port and a memory card slot but makes up for it with a sleek design, competitive print speeds, and bold, crisp prints.

The bottom line: The Canon Pixma iP2600 is an excellent option for buyers looking to print their personal photos and text documents. We wish it had external ports for direct image uploading (although we're not surprised it doesn't), but you'll be more than satisfied with this printer's ability to deliver quality photos at a low price.

The photos themselves are also incredibly easy to crop, repair, and alter using the included Easy-PhotoPrint EX software bundle. Overall, you'll find that this is a cost-effective printer for text documents and amateur-level photo printing.

Design
It's obvious that Canon put a lot of work into the design of the iP2600. The sleek exterior is 5.6x17.4x10 inches and has a glossy black, slightly mirrored finish that looks sleek on your desk--that is, until the dust settles, literally. The shiny body retains fingerprints, a lot like the display on the iPhone. Smudges aside, the iP2600 doesn't take up a lot of desk space, and it blended in nicely with the rest of our dark peripherals.

The output and paper trays both fold into the unit when not in use, creating a tight box that could easily be mistaken for a stereo boom box. The output tray folds down from the face of the printer with a slightly flimsy rectangular arm that extends to corral loose paper. The arm doesn't have a cap at the end, which was counterproductive, and a few of our test sheets flew off the tray as a result. Annoying, but certainly not a deal-breaker.

The control panel is very minimalist, with only power and paper feed buttons on top of the printer. The power button also doubles as an alarm lamp that flashes orange when an error occurs. The power cord and the USB port are on the back. Potential buyers should be aware that you'll need a USB cord to connect the printer to a computer, but as is frustratingly common with printers, it's not included in the box. Appropriate for this price, there are no provisions for external bridge connectivity, so consumers looking to eliminate the middleman and plug a digital camera, a USB key, or a memory card directly into the IP2600 should look to a comparable, more fully featured (albeit higher priced) set like the HP Deskjet D4260 or the Epson Stylus Photo R260.

Performance
The Canon Pixma iP2600 performed admirably in our speed tests. The Pixma churned out 5.68 pages per minute (ppm) of black-and-white text, falling just short of the HP Deskjet 4260 ($75) at 6.03 ppm and the Lexmark Z845 ($50) at 6.85 ppm. The three printers are all within the same general sub-$100 price range, so the slight deficit is expected and acceptable compared with other budget inkjet printers.
