Panasonic unveils first consumer 3D camcorder
By Warren Frey on Jul 27, 2010 at 7:25 PM
Panasonic recently rolled out the HDC-SDT750, the world's first ever 3D consumer camcorder. While this is undoubtedly a first for home moviemakers, it’s also a bit of a gamble for Panasonic. Since the company is betting that people will also have 3D television on which to view their masterpieces (presumably manufactured by Panasonic). Just in case they don’t have the necessary glasses to experience the third dimension in the living room, Panasonic has also introduced 3D glasses that can be recharged via USB and also come in kid-size.

It's Time to Print in the Cloud!
By Clayton Goodfellow on Jun 16, 2010 at 11:03 AM
I'm a big fan of cloud computing, like Google Docs, since it allows me to work from anywhere around the world and still have access to my files. Now, 'the cloud' has entered into the world of printers, with HP introducing the Photosmart e-All-in-One Printer.
I can be on vacation in Hawaii and still be able to print photos off my home printer. This would be perfect for your mom who always like to show-off photos of you to her friends. HP's new cloud printer won't need you worry about any connectivity issues between the printer and computer. Plus, you can even print from your favorite gadgets such as your iPad, smartphones, netbooks, etc.
How does this really work, you ask? Every HP ePrinter will have a specific email address, for you to email, in order to print the photo. If you want to print off your smartphone, make sure to download the HP ePrint mobile app.
