Sony is trying some new things with its PSP gaming machine, trying to keep up with Nintendo. There is a new slimmer PSP that is to be released in September of this year, with a price of about $200. The PSP is 30% lighter, and 20% thinner than the previous model, which makes it a little easier to handle, without compromising usability or screen size. Several hardware changes are included, including the inclusion of a video out port. Other changes include doubling the RAM from 32 MB to 64 MB and also being able to charge the unit via USB. Several colors are available including black, white, and silver.

Canon’s HG10 is suppose to be the “world’s smallest hard drive based high definition camcorder”. I’m not going to argue; it weighs in at just under 20 ounces, and that’s with the battery included. The device also has 40 GB of storage space, which computes out to about 5 and a half hours of recording, at the highest quality setting. It supports full HD (1920X1080) and cost is about $1200.

Here is another one of those “many things in one device” items. Now you can have a numeric keypad right on top of your mouse. Cool idea. It’s a mouse with the plastic lid down, and a numeric keypad when you flip it up.

ArGoSoft Mail Server .NET is continues best traditions of our older, Win32 based mail servers. It uses concepts and methods, used, tested and approved by tens of thousands of users since we first released our first mail server in 1999. But, the .NET version uses more advanced database engine, and contains 100% managed code (.NET), which make it more reliable, efficient, fast. The difference in speed is more noticeable with IMAP and the Web interface.

It contains two modules:

* Mail Server module itself, which is a Windows service application, and provides SMTP (including secondary SMTP), POP3, IMAP and delivery services. It also supports Mailbag domains and has built-in anti-spam and security features.

Wind power is the cool (no pun intended) thing now days, so here is a gadget called the Firewinder LED Windmill. It has a vertical corkscrew design, which features rows of white LEDs embedded in the blades edge. The LEDs glow brighter as the wind blows harder. Looks almost like an Irish Barber Pole, doesn’t it? It’s gonna cost you about $200.
