CoolerMaster NotePal X3 - Cool blue
Continuing from the success of their
NotePal X2 laptop coolers, CoolerMaster have one-upped themselves again by releasing
the new NotePal X3 cooler, which features a significantly better cooling
solution and a design that does not only look cool, but is practical as well.
The X3 features a brand new LED-lit 200mm fan that ensures your laptop stays
cool even in the harshest of temperatures. It also features front air vents
that cool your hands just as it cools your notebook's chassis. The classic
streamlined NotePal "X" design also supports notebooks of up to 17
inches in display size, so if you ever need to change your laptop, the X3 will
still be there to cool your portable computer.

Sony Xperia Sola - Touch without touching
Sony has wasted no time in launching a
lineup of new phones after their acquisition of Ericsson's shares and patents
not too long ago. The NXT series of phones originally consists of the Sony
Xperia S, U and P, but another phone has joined the party, and there has been
quite a bit of talk about it. Enter: the Sony Xperia Sola. Featuring a 3.7-inch
display and a 1.0GHz dual core processor, the phone runs Android's 2.3
Gingerbread operating system, with promise of an ICS upgrade looming in the
horizon. The biggest selling feature of the Xperia Sola, however, lies in a
brand new Sony proprietary tech called the "Floating Touch"
technology. What this does is it allows users to touch and swipe at the display
by just having their finger hover over the screen without actually touching it.
The phone is expected to be launched sometime in the second quarter of the
year.

ASUS ROG Tytan CG8565 - Gaming Titan
Gaming PCs are often tricky things to talk about,
as most gamers would swear that a "proper" gaming rig needs to be
built from scratch. However, this may not be the case for everyone, and ASUS --
with its Republic of Gamers moniker -- have recently launched a gaming rig in
the form of the ASUS ROG Tytan gaming desktop. Powered by the Intel Core
i7-2600K, ASUS has also slotted in a Z68 motherboard and 8GB of DDR3 1600MHz
RAMS in a 4GB x 4GB dual channel configuration. Adding on further to the list
is NVIDIA's GTX 560Ti. Being a gaming rig, it should be obvious that hard disk
space is also an important factor, so they've also added in a 2TB HDD for you
to install all the games you want to play. The ROG Tytan set also comes with a
USB gaming keyboard, a gaming mouse and a 3 year on-site warranty in case
anything happens to your computer.
