Pee Wee PC Pivot Tablet Laptop
This week PeeWee PC announced the availability of the PeeWee Pivot Tablet Laptop. Targeted at children ages 3 to 10, it’s spill and drop resistant, has a built-in handle, and weighs in at 3 pounds. From a hardware perspective, it features netbook-level hardware (1.6 GHz Atom processor, 1 GB memory, and 60 GB HDD) and a 9-inch, rotating touch screen. Software features include a Walt Disney Windows XP theme, educational software, games, and a security suite that provides parental control options.
The PeeWee PC retails for $599, and includes a six-cell battery (so it should have decent battery life) and 3-year warranty.
UMID M1 mbook
According to the latest updates, a Korean manufacturer has launched a UMID named, Mbook. The UMID M1 mbook jumps aboard the netbook bandwagon, where the device ships in a relatively neat package that offers out-of-the-box Internet connectivity, as long as you have a decent Wi-Fi connection nearby.
This tiny device shouldn’t really be able to function as a decent workstation but meant for casual surfing, since the 4.8″ display is really too small to be of practical use, while the keyboard will introduce your fingers to cramps much faster. The Korean manufacturer for this UMID also claims that for connectivity, it is compatible with HSDPA, Bluetooth 2.0 and WiBro – a WiMax-like wireless broadband internet technology. Among other specifications, UMID sports four-in-one memory card slot, a mini USB 2.0 port, a QWERTY keyboard and has a battery life of around six hours.

Dual Action Electronic Lightsaber
Being a Jedi would mean one upholds all that is good, true and honorable - even while on the battlefield. The Dual Action Electronic Lightsaber, we believe, is a product of the Sith since it comes with a hidden secondary lightsaber at the hilt that can be pulled out during an opportune moment which could potentially turn the tide of a fierce lightsaber duel. Another option would be to attach th smaller lightsaber to the hilt, leaving you with a gimped double-bladed lightsaber (compared to Darth Maul’s, of course). These new toys will be out in our galaxy sometime that August for $46.99.
Genius G-Shot HD520
Genius has rolled out its latest high definition digital video camera - the G-Shot HD520 which does not only snap images of stills at 11-megapixels, it is also able to shoot 5-megapixel MPEG4/H.264 videos without missing a beat.
Features
- Super bright 2.5″ LTPS LCD display which can be rotated up to 270 degrees,
- Face Detection technology
- Electronic Image Stabilizer (EIS) that helps those with shaky hands shoot great looking photos
- 32MB of internal memory

The included HDMI cable allows you to view images and recorded videos over your HDTV. $149 sounds like a fair price for the G-Shot HD520.
