For all you PMP fans out there, the D’Cube D9 (an upgrade to the D7 and D5) has been announced and it is packing a nice set of features; a 320 x 240 3.5-inch screen, 2 or 4GB of built-in memory and a microSD/SDHC expansion slot. It supports live T-DMB (available only in Korea, of course) and is capable of playing MP3, WMA, OGG, AVI, WMV and JPG files. The D9 is equipped with a 1450 mAh Li-Po battery that is capable of 15 hours of audio playback, 8 hours of video playback and 6.5 of live T-DMB . It is also able to record T-DMB over-the-air programming, which would make it sort of a portable Korea-only TiVo of sorts. Did I mention that it also includes a strap and a nifty kickstand? No word on availability, but when it does drop, expect to pay about 128,000 won or about $130 green backs for the 4GB version.

Nikon has announced its new Coolpix P80 point-and-shoot camera designed for camera enthusiasts and family photographers. The Coolpix P80 boasts of a whooping 10.1-megapixel CCD image sensor and Nikon’s EXPEED digital image processing concept.
Bill Giordano, General Manager Marketing of Nikon Coolpix must have been proud of the new camera when he said:
“Nikon is proud to continue delivering the highest quality imaging products for photo enthusiasts and aspiring photographers with a broad range of creative control options and superior imaging ability.”
Do you think these goodies speak for Mr. Giordano’s claim? – 18x optical zoom, Nikon lens with focal lengths from 27-486mm (equivalent to 35mm), optical vibration reduction, various exposure mode highlighted by Sport continuos mode that allows users to shoot as many as 30 consecutive photos at 4, 6, or 13 fps, a 2.7-inch LCD monitor with anti-reflection coating, electronic view finder and many more features.
To make the Coolpix P80 even easier to use, Nikon has thrown in its user-friendly imaging innovations called “Nikon In-Camera Innovation”. This technology includes In-Camera Red-Eye Fix, D-Lighting and Face-Priority. The Nikon Coolpix will be available this month and retail for $399.95.

While I am normally not a big fan of covering my notebook or phone with lots of stickers or graphics, the latest offering from Gelaskins may convince me to change my thoughts just a little bit. Its a motherboard styled image, which was created by Derek Prospero.
Gelaskins offers vinyl decals that are made from a “premium grade 3M vinyl” for a variety of laptops, both Mac and PC as well as the iPhone and iPod. The laptop decals seem to all be $29.95, while the iPhone and iPod decals are $14.95. The artwork for the decals are all being licensed from various artists.
After all what geek would not want to have their motherboard on the outside, now I just have to decide whether I want to skin my notebook, phone or both. Of course, if they motherboard look is not for you they have a huge selection to choose from.

I don’t know what the occasion is, but apparently Microsoft has decided to dish out its Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 in 5 dazzlingly bright colors. And no, the one pictured here is not pink, so stop your hating. This, my friend, is what the color Dragon Fruit looks like. At least that’s true according to Microsoft. Other colors include Aloe, Milk Chocolate, and Creme Brulee, and Pomegranate. You’ll be able to get these babies from Best Buy in May for around $30, and will reportedly be rolling out to other stores by June. Artsy type geeks, I think, are gonna love this.

Behind its rather un-catchy name, the Egoman MP810RSTD-43 offers more than just your average media file playing capabilities. Aside from supporting a wide array of music file formats like MP3, WMA, WAV, and FLAC, it will also play WVI and RMVB files at 30 fps, as well as photos in JPG, BMP, GIF formats. And you can be certain you’ll have a good view of your photos on its 4.3-inch screen, because it supports a 480 x 272-pixel resolution and up to 16 million colors (clue: that’s more than what you’ll find in a rainbow). And if you get tired of watching your movies on its screen, then simply hook it up to your telly to give your clips some maximum exposure. There are no details on pricing yet but I’m sure the digital voice recording feature, support for e-books and built-in FM tuner won’t do this product harm overall.
