SnaptureFlash For The iPhone

Are you one of the millions who think that the iPhone's photo taking capability is extremely gimped? Well, fret not - there's a new solution to help you capture images even in the darkest of environments - the SnaptureFlash. This iPhone accessory shares roughly the same dimensions as most iPhone cases, although you get another 3/8" of hardware protruding from the bottom of the handset. All the additional space are utilized fully, since it carries passive speaker amplification and packs a xenon flash that offers 50,000 lux of brightness - way ahead of the 500 lux found on the average LED flash. The inclusion of an extra LED bulb aids video recording in low light conditions as well. If you like Ubergizmo... Become a fan in Facebook

Dell Studio XPS 13 (Adamo)

The upcoming Dell Adamo seems to be the XPS13: a thinner than Air (Macbook Air, that said) laptop that might not beat Apple in terms of design, but most likely beat them in price and possibly comfort, thanks to the leather-wrapping. The price of the Macbook Air basically prevented it from getting any significant market share and there's a good opportunity for Dell here. I hope that the XPS13 looks better in real-life than it does in these pictures (the pic above is the best shot) - we'll see soon enough. The bottom line is: customers want light and cheap and Dell might just give them that! Check out the photo gallery. The complete set of pictures are on Engadget. Are you excited?

Shopping for a Holiday Gift for the Family? Top Tech Tips to Consider This Festive Season

A recent holiday consumer study revealed that consumers may be changing their spending this season: Two out of three Americans admit they will consider spending less on family and friends this year than they did last year. Nearly half will give one large family gift as opposed to many smaller individual items. Nearly three-fourths of Americans will give gifts that provide their family and friends with entertainment while staying home. Money-saving options are available for families that are demanding more from their personal technology, such as creating greeting cards or family photo albums at home, or tracking and organizing finances using the latest software. Holiday shoppers who are looking for quality at a low price will find that Microsoft Office Home and Student (http://www.office.microsoft.com) offers the latest essential software for $149.95 (estimated retail price). ...

Nokia N97 Hands-On

I have been able to play with a Nokia N97, Nokia's first full-display smartphone, and let me tell you that this is the most exciting N-Series phone to date (even if I really like the E71, read review). The first thing that stroke me was the size of the phone: it is much smaller and thinner than the official product photos would let one believe (uh-oh, someone might be getting into trouble here). Secondly, the user-interface, while familiar to S60 users, is finger-friendly. That sounds like a "duh", but most Windows Mobile "touch-phones" aren't (See our HTC Touch-Pro review). I will reserve my final comments and judgment for when the final software is released (sometimes in the first half of next year), but so far, I'm liking the direction in which this product going. The ...

Blogging Tour South Africa Kick Off

I am invited by the International Marketing Council of South Africa to see some of their best technology, and to get a sense of the country. All expenses are paid but I will write what I want about this trip. Africa is not the first place that comes in mind when we think about broadband connection and technology, so I thought that it could be good to go and check out what is going on there. I arrived two days ago in Johannesburg at the Rosebank Hotel and I met the other bloggers last night during an instructive dinner. Check out the photos by clicking on the gallery button, all names will be written later when I confirm the right spelling. During the week, we will visit the deepest mine in ...

RAZR Sequel to Disappear?

Electronista got hold of a tip that claims Motorola's RAZR line of phones may be coming to a halt. The tip included a photo of a prototyped codenamed "Ruby" that may have been the RAZR3. If the report is true, the reason for this action is unclear but could be related to the choice of OS. Previous reports have pointed towards Motorola using the Symbian related UIQ interface, but Motorola now plans on moving forward with Android and Windows Mobile. This news is too bad because we could have seen features like a five-megapixel camera with an LED flash, 3G, GPS, Wi-Fi and they even planned on shrinking the total footprint further. Remember this is an unconfirmed report, it may be a little while longer before we know what is ...

Nikon D3x Specifications

Nikon Pro has obtained the official specifications of the Nikon D3x (from this blog): 24.5MP sensor 5fps of continuous shooting at full resolution ISO 100-1600, extended to 50-6400 16-bit colors EXPEED processor (Body design and other functions similar to the Nikon D3) more details here There's no video-capture capability and photographers like Seb Rogers think that it's pretty late in the game, but I'm sure that Nikon fan will point out to many positive points. I don't know for other people, but I'm just an amateur with a taste for DSLRs and these days, the only thing that I want from my next camera is much better low-light shooting capability.
