HP VooDoo Envy 133 Review
Day perfect today to take a look much more closely for the next high-end portable HP. VooDoo Envy is the model 133, which have been unveiled some high-quality images that leave us watch carefully this ultraportable of 13.3 inches.
As far as we can see in the pictures, this VooDoo Envy 133 basa its appeal in its thickness and especially in their finishing. Bright and exquisite. The carcass of carbon fibre and SS-64 GB disc are two of the elements that leave us with a team that only weighs 1.54 kilograms, an ideal weight for a team of its dimensions. Its thickness is less than 18 cm, which is not far from anything wrong.
The Voodoo Evny 133 to reach the market is about to enter the month with LED-type display, Intel Core 2 Duo processor at 1.8 GHz and integrated graphics. The battery, four hours, and the HDMI connection are two of its strengths. From USB ports will not be left with only two, one of them as reusable port Esat.
Although it comes with the Windows Vista operating system, we have Voodoo IOS based on Linux that leaves us with limited functions of web browsing, multimedia communications and something without having to boot the primary operating system. The price of departure of this team will be 1,300 euros.

There will be versions in red, black, pink and blue and is priced at 99 dollars, although it is likely to launch versions with more internal storage. An acceptable price for a player who has no bad pint, but since then the screen is too small to be able to watch video comfortably in it.

Sony DVP-FX720 Review
Posted on June 25th, 2008
Sony DVP-FX720, portable DVD player
When we say that the Blu-ray still lacks enough to impose (if at all and is not defeated by digital downloads) and the DVD that he is quite life ahead we do not do this lightly. Sony itself feels the same way and therefore throws devices like the Sony DVP-FX720, a portable DVD player.
It has a 7-inch widescreen display, where you can watch movies in this format or in DivX but also is compatible with audio CDs, MP3 music and photos, we can upload through CDs or through its USB port from cameras or from external disks.
It includes integrated speakers, plus two headphone outlets to use two people at the same time and comes with a remote control and an adapter to connect to the car battery.
Without knowing the price I wonder if it does not make much more sense to buy a ultraportable, which probably will have a price and a screen of similar size and that helps us a lot more.

Special technologies defeated: MiniDisc
Sony recovery in our special technologies defeated and we are going to the field of audio, with the MiniDisc, a format that even today has enough followers, but which was never succeed in bulk.
As the Digital Compact Cassette, was an attempt to replace cassette tapes to digital format. Sony announced this in 1991 and went on sale in early 1992.
The MiniDisc is a form similar to that of a floppy with a size of 6.8 x 7.2 x 0.5 inches, with an outer casing which serves as protection with a sliding door and stored on the disc inside. It uses magneto-optical technology to store data.
The material is heated by a laser so that it becomes programmable via a magnetic field, which alters the polarity to record data. This allows rewritable discs up to a million times. To read only the laser is used.

Polaroid Freescape 4360 Review
Posted on June 22nd, 2008
Polaroid Freescape 4360, media player
Perhaps the Polaroid Freescape 4360 we reached Spain, now that Polaroid here brings its consumer technology. If so, we will see a music player and video that depicts interesting.
With a 4.3-inch screen, which offers a somewhat fair resolution of 480 x 272 pixels, we can play music in MP3 and WMA, video in MPEG-4 and WMV and photos in JPG, in addition to tune the FM radio. It has Wi-Fi connectivity, with which we can do streaming from our computer.
Its capacity is 60 GB and has a TV output, so if the price is right (is rumoured that could leave a little over 250 euros), could compete well with products from Archos. Of course, these take time already on the market and have a system and an interface rather than proven, another area in which it will verify the operation of this Polaroid Freescape.
