Myvu Solo Plus

Myvu Solo Plus Edition 20080313 211522 Myvu Solo PlusThe Myvu Solo Plus is a head mounted media viewer for the iPod Video, iPod Classic, iPod nano (3rd Gen) and iPod Touch. It connects directly to the iPod through the dock connector, and provides sound and video, similar to how it would be if you connected your iPod to your TV. It provides upto 4 hours of viewing time, powered by it’s built-in rechargeable battery.

You wear it on your head the same way you would a pair of glasses, and a small controller dangles down. On the controller, you can adjust the contrast, and the brightness.

In my testing, I connect up my iPod Touch and it work seamlessly, it worked both with videos I added to my iPod and YouTube Videos. The quality of the videos that I played was not superb, but it was good enough for watching a few YouTube videos and some videos I put on my iPod.

I would recommend this product to people who use their iPods for watching a lot of videos.

Product Info:

Name: Myvu Solo Plus Edition
Price: $199.95

Apple today introduced Aperture 2, a major update to its photo editing and management software. The new version bosts over 100 new features and the promise of being faster, easier to use and more powerful. The UI has been streamlined, the image processing engine has been revamped, and Aperture 2 now includes new imaging tools for highlight recovery, color vibrancy, local contrast definition, soft-edged retouching, vignetting and RAW fine-tuning. All this lets users directly post their portfolios on a .Mac Web Gallery for viewing on the web, iPhone , iPod touch and Apple TV. The new reduced price of USD$199 is probably the most user-friendly new feature of all.

PANTONE hueyPRO offers greater control over onscreen color fidelity

405343284 51b2d238d7 m PANTONE hueyPRO offers greater control over onscreen color fidelityNew from PANTONE, about the size of a marker pen, hueyPRO retains the innovative form of the original huey, as well as its ability to continually adjust the monitor as room lighting changes. With the addition of new software, hueyPRO offers increased control over brightness and contrast through separate menu choices that allow users to select gamma and white point settings. An improved Help function offers hints and workflow suggestions for improving color output.

Which huey is right for you?
huey: For enthusiasts just getting started with color management, huey takes less than five minutes to make onscreen color fidelity appropriate for viewing photos, playing games, creating graphics or browsing the Web. Unlike other color calibration tools on the market, huey is the first monitor calibrator to continually adjust for ambient lighting.

hueyPRO: Designed for hobbyists and professionals looking for greater color control and consistency when working between multiple monitors, hueyPRO packs advanced color correction functionality into an affordable package. Like its sibling huey, hueyPRO delivers professional results without requiring expertise in color management.

hueyPRO will be available in April 2007 online and at major electronics, photo, and online retailers for USD$129. huey is currently available online and at Apple stores, Circuit City, Office Depot, and Ritz Camera and its resellers for USD$89. Both devices work with LCD, CRT and laptop monitors and are compatible with Mac OSX 10.3.9 and higher. An upgrade for registered huey users will be available through Pantone.com.

For a limited time, hueyPRO will be bundled at no additional cost with the PANTONE 100 TOP COLORS/solid coated book. PANTONE 100 TOP Colors is a guide featuring the 100 most popular PANTONE Colors used in the graphic design industry, along with printing ink formulas and RGB values.
