Companies that manufacture ultra-portable video projectors like BenQ’s Joybee GP1 typically aim these devices at the business market, targeting corporate road warriors who travel from client to client making PowerPoint presentations. In an interesting twist though, BenQ is pitching this device squarely at the family.

In fact, the press release announcing the product’s availability suggests a scenario in which a consumer loads up a USB thumb drive with digital photos and videos, throws it in a box with the projector, and mails it off to great grandma. Bear in mind that since the Joybee can host a USB storage device or even an iPod (with the optional dock), it doesn’t need to be tethered to a PC (although it can be). The big question though: Will great-grandma be able to make heads or tails of the gear when it shows up on her doorstep? We imagine less tech-savvy folks will need at least some handholding to get started—along with a very dark room and a very white wall, if not a bona fide projector screen—although the device is pretty easy to figure out.

That said, the Joybee GP1 isn’t the tiniest projector we’ve seen—Optoma’s Pico PK101 is small and light enough to carry in your pocket—but the Joybee GP1 is brighter, more versatile, and considerably more useful. Both devices are based on Texas Instruments’ DLP (Digital Light Processor) technology, which creates an image by reflecting light off a grid of microscopic mirrors mounted on a semiconductor. Each tiny mirror creates a pixel by swiveling to either reflect light through the projector’s lens or to redirect it to an internal heatsink. If all the light is directed to the heatsink, the projected image is black; toggling between the two states creates a grayscale, and shades of color are produced by using red, green, and blue LEDs as light sources. BenQ claims the LEDs it uses can last upwards of 20,000 hours, which means the device will likely outlive its usefulness before its light source ever fails.

Hardcore gamers have a reason to rejoice. Microsoft Corporation had announced the introduction of project natal last year which promised gamers a full interactive gaming experience. What makes project natal fun is its ability to allow users to control the Xbox games with their body and hand movements, instead of a controller. Basically, project natal comes as a sensory device that has an inbuilt camera attached to it. You just have to plug it to your Xbox 360 and it starts tracking your movements. Apart from this, this amazing device utilizes the infrared technology to track movements such as, distance, voice commands, facial features, looking out for color difference and much more. Microsoft has claimed to have done an extensive research on the sensory capabilities of this device. For instance, this device has the ability to “read” you facial features and can automatically log you into your Natal Games profile.

The YoGen is an easy to use hand charger, incorporating the latest in design and technology. With many people carrying around at least one battery-powered device the problem of a misplaced charger, or lack of spare batteries, can be a problem.

The pocket-sized charger produces power by the repeated pulling of a cord, similar to the action of a yo-yo. When the T-handle cord is pulled an internal alternator spins generating power to recharge the batteries in an MP3 player, iPod or mobile phone. The YoGen comes with a range of connectors and promises ‘an unmatched level of charging power’. The charger is designed to be hardwearing and looks like a great option when solar power is either too slow or unavailable.

The manufacturer ‘Easy Energy Inc’ also plans to launch a foot pedal laptop charger by the end of the year. Get all your gadgets charging together and the workout might even beat going to the gym!

What’s really great about this gadget is it’s designed specifically for your gadget batteries, not ordinary batteries. Interchangeable connecters mean that it can be plugged into most laptop and mobile devices.

When your broadband contract is up for renewal, it is advisable to compare your options rather than simply renewing the contract with your old providers.

Comparison websites offer a great way to do this. Without a comparison website you would have to visit each and every provider one by one, and check various aspects of their services to find the best deals.

With a broadband comparison site, however, you simply enter your postcode and you will be shown a plethora of deals from various providers, all shown on one easy to read page.

The trick with comparison websites is to pick one that’s established and trustworthy. Knowing which sites are good is not always as easy as it seems. Whilst at first glance, picking a top ranking website seems like the way to go, there is another way to tell which sites are to be trusted.

Ofcom… That’s right! Ofcom actually have an accreditation system in place for comparison websites! Picking a broadband comparison website that has ofcom approval is a sure fire way of ensuring you’re dealing with a legitimate comparison website that will help you to compare broadband deals in a truly transparent and fair manner.

So, when you’re broadband contract comes up for renewal, be sure to compare your options before re-signed that contract, and be equally sure to check for the ofcom badge on the comparison website that you use!

Demand for high speed internet access, has changed the trend of dial-up connection. Modern technologies came into existence in allowing users to connect online within less time. Broadband satellite internet connection acts as a good alternative for dial-up connection. This connection allows people to access internet from any place without interruption. Unlike dial-up connection, satellite connection is highly secure. In past, people were using dial-up connections on 128Kbps lines. These connections were slow; customers were not able to enjoy internet access for long durations. HughesNet satellite connections recently came into play. This option allows people to use high speed 768Kbps lines for accessing internet.

Hughes net helps local individuals as well as small and medium sized enterprises. Companies prefer satellite internet connection because it’s highly secure and fast. Besides security, Hughes net is also known for providing special benefits. Dial-up connection asks you to load dialup software, whereas Hughes net will give you direct access to internet. It doesn’t require any software for connecting to the internet.

3G routers are hardly the rare occurrence they once were, but it’s still somewhat notable whenever a company decides to expand our wireless options, which is just what AnyDATA has done today, joining the party with its HSDPA-packin’ AWR-600 router. There’s not a whole lot here we haven’t seen before, with the router supporting standard 802.11 b/g WiFi in addition to the built-in HSDPA, along with a built-in DHCP server, web-based configuration, the usual array of security features and, of course, some LEDs to let you know what’s going on. The router also manages to keep things on the small side, measuring about 6.1 x 1.1 x 4.7 inches, with the dual antennas adding a bit of height to that. Unfortunately, there’s no word on price, but AnyDATA doesn’t look to have its eye on the home user with this one, instead targeting the router towards coffee shops and other business looking to offer a little hotspot action without the need for a landline connection.

Palm and Motorola have taken very different paths to get where they are today; one began life as a scrappy Valley start-up founded by a tablet computing pioneer, the other traces its roots to all the way back to the early days of consumer electronics and the automotive industry. Yet somehow, through years (decades, even) of adventure, success, and misfortune, they’ve found themselves in exactly the same situation here in 2009: it’s do-or-die time. Palm, of course, has elected to try its hand at resurrecting the very thing that took it to superstardom in the first place — an elegant, tightly-controlled software platform of its own with hardware to match — while Motorola has thrown virtually all of its remaining weight behind Android in the hope that it can catch a little mojo from Google’s ecosystem.

For Motorola, it’s the wireless equivalent of stepping up to the roulette table, putting what’s left of your depleted life savings on red, and letting it ride just as you see security guards off in the distance coming to throw you — penniless — off the premises. It’s a gamble of the highest order, but it’s also a gamble Motorola’s painfully aware that it needs to take. North America’s only top-five handset manufacturer needs nothing less than magic (and a little luck) to earn its way back into the world’s wireless elite — and that risky play starts right here, today, with the CLIQ / DEXT.
