The HTC Diamond2 just landed on my doorstep after this week’s launch, and now that I’ve pulled it out of the box, I thought I’d share my initial impressions with you.
Late last week, Navman grabbed a heap of Aussie tech journos, threw us into cars and had us play around with their new MY series range of satnavs while we were driven around Sydney. During the brief hands-on time we had, I can happily say that the new range works.
This morning I wandered down to Darling Harbour to PMA to check out the latest camera gear, and managed to get some hands on time with the Olympus E-P1 Micro Four-Thirds camera. It’s niiiicccceeee.
I just finished groping the PSP Go! After a few minutes with the new handheld, I know why Sony is keeping the classic PSP intact.
Having just played with a prototype for a few minutes, I’m really impressed with the Zune HD. I’ve got a video, too, showing off how well the animations work.
Here’s a quick hands on. Uh, yeah, its bigger. The buttons feel very stiff, and the joystick is pretty similar to kindle 2′s. Updated
The Gadget: Ideative’s Socket Sense surge protector that expands in order to fit more bulky AC adapters all on one strip.
Apple’s App Store concept has essentially colonised the idea of mobile app distribution, with every major smartphone platform rushing to open their own. RIM’s takeoff, BlackBerry App World, launched yesterday for the US, UK and Canada. How is it?
Samsung today rolled out a couple of new MP3 players—one iPod Shuffle-like, the U5, and one in the Nano price range, the Q2.
The rumours were true. Canon has crammed the $US1500 50D’s sensor and 5D-Mark-II-like 1080p video capture into an $US899 entry-level Rebel. We ran it through its paces for a few hours, and it’s awesome.
AU: The local announcement came through as well – The 500D (as it’s known here) will launch in May, with all RRPs TBC. We’ll let you know more when we do.
