3D is taking over technology. I recently blogged about Sony getting ready to launch a 3D blu ray player, but that does not compare to the impact that the new Sony 3D HDTV's will have on television viewers everywhere.This summer, Sony will release a series of 12 different LCD HDTV's. All of the TV's use the newest imagine processing called Bravia. Bascially, this is what televison viewers have waited for their entire lives. You cannot possible think of a better television to own with a clearer picture and more capabilities than you can imagine. Some of the fascinating featues include: LED back-lighting, WIFI, USB wireless adapters, TV available as big as 60 inches, and a pair of shutter 3D glasses.
Sony is very aware of the new direction of technology that Television's are taking, and they could not pass up on adding 3D to their new line of HDTV's. “We intend to take the lead in 3D,” proclaimed Sony chairman Sir Howard Stringer. " (Pensen, PC world)
With these new 3D HDTV's introduced this summer, I think this will change television forever. It was a defining moment when big screens were introduced, as well as when HDTV's were created, and this will be another. This will change how people can view their favorite tv's shows, watch their movies, and play their video games. This is the perfect TV to have for people who really enjoy television and want to view it in a whole new way. Unfortunately, to get this you will be paying a hefty price. Prices for these TV's range from 2,000 to almost 5,000 dollars , but its the price you pay to have the greatest entertainment available.

Microsoft Trying To Be Like Apple
Clearly when you think of the best phone out there you do not think of Microsoft but you think of Apple's Iphone. This has caused Microsoft to go to work and introduce their version of a smart phone. Microsoft is now introducing the Windows Phone 7 series. Microsoft was thinking it was time for a new beginning and to create something fresh and new to spark customers. This new phone looks similar to an Iphone with similar features. However, it is a bit smaller and offers something interesting called "hubs." A hub is a folder containing photos that can be uploaded or from social network sites and contains information about people on our phone list that gets updated instantly.
The phone also mainly focuses on music which it gets its style and formating that similar is to the Zune player. One big difference I see from the IPhone is that this phone tries to emphasize gaming. Microsoft is working with Xbox live gaming service so customers can play with this as well on the phone. Also, microsoft is hoping with the success of their office software, which allows easy capability on the phone, this will make consumers choose their product.
I see this product usefully to many people working in business and Public Relations. Especially those who prefer a PC over a Mac this would be there kind of phone to use. However, it will be hard to attract people because so many people have become popular with the IPhone already. What could make them stand out is making the phone very affordable.

Blu Ray goes 3D
The latest way to watch a dvd movie at home is on your blu ray player in order to view the movie in high definition. How could it get better than that? Well it does with the new Sony S470 Blu-Ray player going 3D. That's right 3D! With more and more movies having the option of watching a movie in 3D at the theaters, it does not surprise me that 3D is being added as an extra feature. Maybe with the huge success of the movie Aviatar (the current highest grossing movie ever), Sony decided they wanted to market this 3D player before Aviatar is released on dvd.
What this 3D player offers fast startup to begin your movie. It can play blu ray disc, cd's , regular dvds where it offers to upscale the resolution , and of course hooks up to internet to view video's. The item is retailed at $200.00 which is a very affordable price considering how high blu- ray players tend to run. This item will be available in March but can be pre-ordered now.
I think this is a great item for movie lovers like myself out there. Especially those who have their own personal movie theaters where they like to sit and enjoy movies from the comfort of their own homes, this device is perfect for them. It is just another way to bring this movie experience to your home. If you have young kids who enjoy the animated movies from pixar and other 3D films they saw in theaters, this is going to be a good and affordable investment for families.

High Performance Camera in Small Size
Nikon just announced this week about its newest camera called the Coolpix S8000. What this camera is capable of for its size, is pretty amazing . The camera only weighs 6.5 oz, but still has the capabilities of a wide angle 10x zoom producing high quality pictures. The camera is 14 mega pixels and has easy adjustable settings. Did I mention this camera also comes equipped with a HD video setting to capture videos in HD. The HD video has stereo sound and can capture an amazing 30 frames per second. The camera will retail right under $400 dollars.
This camera can capture quality pictures for photograph and catching images from afar, but it is a great choice to capture group shots without cutting someone out of the picture. The Coolpix S8000 introduces a newer feature to digital cameras called a "Creative Slider". What this does is allow you to adjust your pictures without loading them onto your computer. Brightness of a picture can be easily fixed right on the camera to give you exactly what you want.
I think this new technology camera will supply great help and make the job easier for most photographers. I could see this camera being used a lot by newspaper reports. Usually, it is quite difficult for them to lug a heavy camera around and carry the other essentials they need. This camera's light weight can make easier for them to capture the high quality shot. Also, for aspiring photograph students this camera is affordable for them and will produce the same quality shots to help them build their portfolios.
