SteelSeries Merc Stealth Gaming Keyboard



Anyone who wants a gaming keyboard, must look into this Merc Stealth. Made by SteelSeries (makers of the Zboard), the Merc Stealth is unlike any portable keyboard out there. Sure, it may not exactly be foldable, but you’re going to enjoy the blue glow below the keys itself. You can have other color options for the glow: purple and red. You can also choose from four different illumination modes like subtle, ambient, intense, or you can set it to off.

The keys in the gameboard are all programmable since it uses the SteelSeries Z Engine software. “It has 34 gaming terrain keys that are tilted at an 11 inch angle, and they are comfortable as they are ergonomic.” There are also hotkeys for running, jumping, crouching, and all other important moves for an MMO game.

The Merc Stealth Gaming Keyboard also has two 2.0 USB ports, plus gold-plated microphone and headset jacks that are then connected to a gold-plated USB connector.

You can get this Merc Stealth Gaming Keyboard at the SteelSeries store for $89.99.

GP2X Wiz: “The Best Portable Yet For Retrogamers”



Haven’t I said before that I especially adore seeing old games in new consoles? Well, this is exactly where the comes in. The GP2X Wiz offers those games we all would usually play in our old Nintendo or SEGA game consoles. Games like the Super Mario Kart, SNES or Batman have now come into fusion with technology in the GP2X Wiz.

The device has a 320 x 240 AMOLED touchscreen display, 1GB memory and and SD card slot. It runs in Linux, and you can use emulators and your collection of legal ROMS to play all those hardcore retrogames in the GP2X Wiz.

This simple-controlled black handheld from Korean company GamePark will cost you a mere $180. Considering what it can do for retrogamers, and what esactly it can create, I would like to think it’s price is well worth its features.

Nintendo DSi LL Has Bigger Screen And Pen



If you’re constantly being bugged by the fact that most game consoles nowadays are getting smaller and smaller, then Nintendo has the right device for you. The new Nintendo DSi LL is a bigger version of its contemporaries.

The Nintendo DSi LL got a new 4.2 inches screen and an extra, bigger pen. The new Nintendo DSi has the same specs as that of its predecessors, although this one will come in more adult colors such as dark brown (which became popular with Zune) and wine red (murky burgundy).

This handheld console will launch in Japan on November 21. It will come with three built-in games that is equivalent to $220. Europe will get it early next year while the United States still has an unannounced release date.

iXtreme, speakers, audio devices



iPods and MP3 players are mainly built as a personal music entertainment for people who can’t seem to get enough of music whether they are waiting for the bus or commuting from one point to another. But during parties, would these gadgets be any use?

Of course, there are speakers to do the job, but this iXtreme Amplified Speakers is even better for that powerful audio punch. It operates the same way as a subwoofer as it amplifies sound through a patented expander tunnel. When music is played, a rich deep bass fills the room.

It is built in rechargeable Lithium ion batteries, which will allow you to play music longer than other speakers.

This iXtreme Amplified Speakers can be purchased for a mere $29.95—just a right amount to pay for some music blasting amplifiers.

Three-Post USB Hub Organizes Your USB Gadgets



Unfortunately, unless USB ports are suddenly installed in our electric sockets, we are doomed to forever charge our iPods and iPhones through our laptops’ or PCs’ USB hubs. The problem is, charging takes away most of the power in our laptops and PCs, as well as it hogs our much-needed USB ports.

The 3 Port USB Hub with Line-In Dock connector for iPhone/iPod is exactly the kind of device you need. Although not an answer against battery-draining charging devices, it is at least a way to maximize your USB ports.

This two-end device has a USB connector on the other end and an iPod-dock connector on the other. The three-port USB hub is placed in the center of the device, connected by short cables. This can both charge the iPod and also allow data-syncing.

The 3 Port USB Hub with Line-In Dock connector for iPhone/iPod retails for only $15, which is cheap considering that it eliminates the cable clutter on your desktop.

Tao Digital Photo Keychains Are Great Accessories



Some of you may have collections of keychains from different cities in the world, but this Tao Digital Photo Keychains is quite different because of its ability to hold over 100 photos and display them on its 1.5-inch colored screen.

The screen display has 128 x 128 pixel detail, and is able to let you carry your photos anywhere you go. The keychains come in either red or black, and are recharged via a USB connection to PC or Mac. With a full charge, these can last up to four hours, or even longer when they are put in sleep mode.

This device, which got an internal memory of 8MB, retails for £9.99 apiece.

Curved Monitor From Ostendo Is Great For Gaming Experience



For the mega-price amount of $6,500, you can live like the crown prince of Dubai and place side by side three of Ostendo’s crazy curvy CRVD monitor. By the simple act of letting these monitors suck you into the world of gaming, you’re initially proving how important is screen resolution and size to enjoy a game of Need for Speed.

Ostendo’s curvy monitor is a 2880×900 quad-DLP CRVD that is able to let you enjoy gaming and other computer-based activities through its curved display screen style. We first saw this monitor during the CES 2008 with Alienware branding and at the Macworld 2009 with an NEC label. At first, we didn’t know it’s actually for sale, but Ostendo just said that units have been purchased since August for defense stimulation and training.

Also, watch out for multi-monitor CRVD applications that are slated to arrive in the coming months. Although there have been some negative response to these curvy monitors (since LCD projectors are much more practical to use for gaming and other stuffs) but hey, if you’ve got the money to spend, why not splurge on these right?
