Shownotes:
The HTC Hero will be an Android phone designed with a slight curve to make it more like a real phone. It has a 3.2 inch screen, 5 megapixel camera with autofocus, GPS, a compass, a gravity sensor, standard headphone jack and a dedicated search button.
We’ve known about the Mimo Minu USB Monitor for quite a while, but ThinkGeek.com started selling them and sold out almost immediately. Their price is $130 vs. $200 everywhere else.
PhotoFast is attempting to dissolve the disadvantage of Compact Flash cards with their CF adapters. One gives you an SD slot. One gives you and microSD slot and one gives you four microSD slots with built-in RAID storage.
Viore’s PLC7V95 is a 7″ portable LCD TV with a built in tuner so you can watch TV wherever there’s a digital signal. It includes USB and SC card slots, but unfortuately the antenna is external.
Vizio will be offering a Blu-ray player, the VBR100, exclusively through Wal-Mart for $188. It will start to sell through other outlets later this year.

WARNING:

You need to ask how urgent it is to have a blu-ray player. I mean if you’ve done without this long you may as well wait another 6 months for a $50 player.
