Tej Kohli brings some coolest gadgets that will surely create a flutter this summer. Great gadget-makers across the world turn up with some really cool and stylish gizmos. Take a look:
Portable wonders:
1. First Centrino Atom-based computer and a smartphone from Sharp that will go on sale in Japan.
2. Sanyo’s new model of its waterproof Xacti digital still camera has even clearer video and includes the ability to follow your friends’ faces underwater!
3. A bulky but equally exciting is NEC’s Lui PC. It combines a PC and digital video recorder and makes the entire system accessible over a home network or Internet so you can log into the base PC and access recorded programs or the PC desktop.
And a few surprises from the research and development labs:
1. An interesting chip from Seiko Epson that enables e-paper to enter a whole new world: the chip can support a touchscreen, and means that it’s now possible to make e-paper than can be written on — digitally, of course.
2. Just as Sony’s XEL-1 OLED TV blew people away with its thinness, the company has done it again with a pair of prototype OLED display panels that are just a few tenths of a millimeter thick. They could mean ever thinner TVs in the future — definitely something worth staying tuned for.
3. Samsung’s Soul and LG Secret the latest high-design cell phones. The Soul is already on sale in Europe for 400 euros (US$635) and the Secret will be out soon.
4. Fujitsu wooden laptop: Fujitsu has designed a laptop PC with a case manufactured from wood rather than the more traditional plastic or metal. The laptop, which is only a prototype, uses cedar wood for the case and also makes use of bio-plastics for parts. The wood PC is only a concept and Fujitsu has no plans to put it on sale.
