Fujitsu Secure Memory Device
Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Accessories, USB, Corporate News, Storage,
Companies as well as individuals know that security is not always possible with portable drives if lost or stolen. So Fujitsu is developing 2 new technologies to help prevent data disclosure from USB memory devices. One of them is to automatically erase data stored after a fixed period of time. A second ensures that data would only be stored on a specified server. While there is no timetable as to it becoming a viable technology, at least the company is making a concentrated effort to handle the problem.

Elgato Turbo.264 HD received
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, USB, Apple, HDTV, Peripherals,
We were big fans of the original Elgato Turbo.264 hardware encoder, so when we heard that the company had released an updated version, called the Turbo.264 HD, we pretty much ordered one immediately. The product promises to “quickly convert any video into a format that you can play anywhere and share with anyone” and supports HD camcorders, AVCHD, and direct upload to YouTube. We are gonna tear into this one, and report back with our thoughts. Meantime, any questions on the device?

Wicked Lasers Spyder II GX review
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Features, Product Reviews, Science,
We’ve been playing with the Wicked Lasers Spyder II GX laser for a few weeks now, and wanted to report back with some of our initial thoughts because we hit you with a video feature on Bleeding Edge TV.
So the Spyder II GX is a military-grade green laser that is housed in a light, black aluminum shell. The casing seems to be sctrach-proof, and just looks good. With purchase, you get the laser, two rechargeable lithium ion 18650 batteries (the lasers is powered by one, you so can always have a spare charged,) a pair of green 532nm LaserShades (to protect the eyes,) and a universal battery charger. All that will cost you $1,699.99.

The SB Combo Bar combines a card reader that supports MS Duo, SDHC, SD, MicroSD and M2 without adapters, a 90º, twistable 3 port hub and a thermometer that displays temperature in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. At a size of 100 x 32 x 32mm, it has a blue LED indicator and connects to your USB port. While we are not sure why the thermometer was added into the device, it certainly doesn’t hurt. The bar comes with an extension cable and a price of $15.50.
