VoodooPC's tacky gold-plated luxury PC

gold-plated-VoodooPC.jpg

VoodooPC has announced a 24-karat gold-plated version of their Omen desktop. The new version is identical to the standard Omen desktop as far as specs go. According to CNET, the pricey, standard Voodoo Omen is chock-full of top-shelf components, including two SLI graphics cards, but it falls short due to a configuration mismatch.

Here at Ployer we love luxurious gadgets, anything double the standard price and our stockist gloves go on. With the gold-plated VoodooPC, I am running for the hills - OK , not the hills, but gold is so tacky, why not platinum or diamonds.

Samsung preps digital music download service

Samsung Electronics, Korea's biggest digital products maker has announced plans for a digital media player application like iTunes of Apple Computer.

Samsung president Choi Gee-sung made the remarks during a press conference late last week South Korean newspaper the Chosun Ilbo reports.

"We are now in talks with our partners to debut a service program like iTunes of Apple. Our No. 1 priority is to help customers use our products with ease," the 54-year-old said.


"Our items show healthy performances in China and Southeast Asian countries where iTunes services are not provided," he added.

Choi said the service will be launched domestically and overseas shortly.Choi gave no other details, but the service is likely to be founded on Windows Media technology, leaving Samsung competing against the likes of Napster, Virgin Digital, HMV and Yahoo! Music reports the Register

Samsung, a latecomer in the MP3 digital audio player business, has tried to catch up with Apple, which commands the portable audio player market.

The Seoul-based firm has vended flash memory-based items with a brand of Yepp and sold about 1.7 million MP3 players last year. Choi said the success of iPod has affected Samsung minimally and the company has enough energy to jump over bigger competitors.

Stockist : HDR-HC1 HDV 1080i Handycam Camcorder

HDRHC1-thumb.jpg

Sony Style USA, is offering a HDR-HC1 HDV 1080i Handycam Camcorder starter kit for just $2,199.93. According to reports, the HDV format will help usher in high definition recording into the mainstream aka the average consumer, thanks to its affordable price . Even though the format still has some problems mainly time code issues, ( I heard this at HDV seminar) it is seen at the 'it' format of the future. Since the format is relatively new, video editing software companies are still fighting to wrap their lips around everything HDV. That's the upside, on the downside, High definition has no mercy on the skin, every hole, every scar will be visible.

Features of the HDR-HC1 HDV 1080i Handycam Camcorder

1/3" CMOS sensor with the Enhanced Imaging Processor
Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens with 10x optical and 120x digital zoom
2.7" wide (16:9) hybrid touch panel Swivelscreen LCD display1
Super Steadyshot Stabilization


I recently purchased the Sony HVR-A1U 1/3-Inch Professional HDV Camcorder. Features of that include 3-Million Pixel CMOS Imager, DVCAM and Mini DV Recording Options, Professional Audio Inputs and Time Code. It's really small, lightweight/capable entry level introduction to HDV. I think my next HDV camera, hopefully the Panasonic, I will be able to give an intelligent review.
