The iFan Cometh

Tuesday. 27 April. 2010. 2:29 pm

The electric fan has been re-invented and we give you a first look.


It’s rare to see an age old item reinvented that stops you in your tracks and the Dyson Air Multiplier (DAM) is such an item. This reinvention of the electric fan comes from the brilliant mind of James Dyson who became famous by revolutionizing the vacuum cleaner to become more efficient.

The DAM’s most eye catching feature is the fact that it has no blades! This aspect of the design makes it very child friendly as you no longer have to worry about little Timmy getting has fingers chopped off. No blades mean no need for a grille; so it’s safe and simple to clean.

New Cintiq 21UX Takes Wacom to the Big Leagues

Tuesday. 2 March. 2010. 10:54 am

The device that is bigger and more sensitive than we are.

Admit it, this is what you thought the iPad was going to be! And because it wasn’t you were truly disappointed with Apple. But at least now you can see how they managed to get the iPad to start at US$500.

Wacom introduces their new Cintiq 21UX at a price of US$1,999 (HK$16,000) and its coming out in April. We test drove the last Cintiq model via its distributor here in Hong Kong and we loved it. What an amazing machine! We expect no less from the Japanese who take their traditional penmanship so seriously as well.

If you are an artist, designer, photographer or animator this giant 21″ LC display that has 2048 levels of pressure sensitivity is a necessity of your digital life, and Wacom does have the Bamboo line which is very economically priced for a tablet (guess they will have to change the name now to avoid confusion with the Tablet PC category). So time to call a meeting with your boss and show him how you need this to do your job properly!

Looking to add Mac-like multi-touch to your PC? Then read on!

The Wacom Bamboo Fun Pen & Touch combines the multi-touch functionality of Apple’s MacBook line, while also preserving the intuitive pen functions. The tablet is a nice comfortable size around the dimensions of a sheet of A4 paper, and is perfect for those wanting to do more than what can be done with a mouse alone.

The tablet is nice and easy to use, just like a laptop’s track pad where dragging a finger across the sensor area moves the cursor around the screen; double tapping functions act as the left click on the mouse; while holding your index finger on the tablet and tapping once with your middle finger acts as a right mouse click. Placing two fingers on the tablet and dragging it vertically or horizontally serves to scroll the contents of windows up or down, left to right.
