    Wireless keyboards batteries going flat is one of the most common problems keyboard owners have. They cause hassle which is totally inconvenient for users. But thanks to this new innovation from Logitech, it seems to be that we can now say goodbye to that.

    Logitech has just announced the release of Logitech Wireless Solar Keyboard K750, which is now considered as the “next big innovation in keyboard technology”. 

    Logitech K750 has integrated solar panels to charge its batteries whenever and wherever there is light available. For a more hassle-free convenience, it does not need any power bricks or charging cables to power itself. A solar power application is now available for download in Logitech’s official website. The said the application shows how much charge is left in the batteries which shows if the keyboard is receiving sufficient amount of light for charging and gives easy and at-a-glance information on battery levels with alerts when more power is needed. It can be powered by indoor light (artificial light sources such as lamps) and can stay charged for at least three months in total darkness.

    Aside from being solar-powered, Logitech K750 has brought more to the table. It is only 1/3 inch thick, with rounded edges and thin profile. It also features Logitech Incurve keys that support the shape of the user’s fingertips through its concave design and soft, rounded edges. This becomes a helping guide to the fingers to the right keys and makes it easier for the fingers to move smoothly and easily from key to key. Indeed, this streamlined keyboard looks sleek and stylish.

    K750 also offers Logitech Advanced 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity that enables powerful, reliable connection. In addition, an 128-bit AES encryption, one of the highest levels of security available, is included.

    Batteries of wireless keyboardsand the hassles it bring can now be a thing of the past. We can now say hello to a more convenient option.

    The Nintendo 3DS is the latest offering of the Japanese leading portable gaming console brand. The key feature in this product is obviously its 3D screen that enables you to enjoy the 3D effects without the need for special glasses. The images are vivid and it brings the whole gaming experience onto a new level. It also has a 3D depth slider that allows the user to increase or decrease the 3D effect, depending on his personal preference. It can be increased to the highest level, scaled back to a moderate setting to find a level comfortable for the user’s eyes or can be completely turned off.

    Playing games gets more exciting with its motion and gyro sensor. Through these two features, Nintendo puts the bar up to higher notches in terms of portable play control capability. The motion sensor and gyro sensor allows the user to experience new and unique gameplay mechanics. Reacting to motion and to the tilt of the system is now easier and more flawless. Twisting side to side or moving up and down is not a problem anymore since the motion-compatible games of 3DS respond instantly.

    The game graphics are also outstanding. The widescreen display of the top screen is 800 x 420 in pixel resolution; 400 pixels are meant for each eye to create the 3D effect. The bottom touchscreen LCD, however, is in 320 x 420 in pixel resolution. Both screens are capable to display 16.77 million colors.

    The 3D camera can also be enjoyed by the user. It uses two outer cameras that has the capability of capturing things just like how the human eye sees it. Through the camera application, the user can create 3D photos with the similar effect to the Nintendo 3DS games. The 3DS system also has the capability to show videos in 3D.

    As for the games, the 3D capabilities of the Nintendo 3DS allow the user to experience gaming into a whole new level. This is possible through the Augmented Reality (AR) feature. This feature lets the game “come to life” and can be enjoyed when you lay the card on a flat surface and step back to watch the game in full.

    The Mii Maker is also introduced, which lets the user put his image in the game. This gives a personalized touch to Nintendo 3DS. All you have to do is to take a 2D photo of you or anyone who you want, tweak the features using the Mii Maker, and voila! You already have your own Mii.

    Nintendo has also improved the gamer’s ability to connect with other gamers all over the world, through StreetPass and SpotPass features. The StreetPass feature enables the player to interact with other players by seeking and exchanging data from each of the users to give them new content or challenges. The SpotPass feature, on the other hand, detects wireless hotspots or access points to check for free software, notifications, updates and other 3D contents that will definitely improve the 3DS system as well as the user’s gaming experience.

    Nintendo 3DS is ahead of its game and brings the gaming experience into a whole new level. If you are seeking for such experience, well you definitely need to buy this one.

    What do you get when Activision partners with Microsoft to develop an Xbox 360 bundle?   To begin, you get an Xbox 360 console with a custom Modern Warfare 3 branded theme all over it and 320GB of storage.I also like it when the console gives off sounds related to game when powering up and when the tray is opened.  The package comes with two really cool Modern Warfare 3 custom wireless controllers, free month of Xbox Live Gold, exclusive Xbox Live Avatar items, a wired headset,  and of course a copy of Modern Warfare 3.

    The Xbox 360 console now also offers an integrated Wi-fi for a faster and easier way to connect to Xbox LIVE.  Although I would have to say that nothing beats a wired connection if you really wanna go for fast online shooting action.  Still it is a nice added feature to have whenever you should need it.

    Things just get better when you are able to get a headshot then taunt your opponent in the middle of all the action with the provided headset.  Use the black wired headset to share tactics with your friends and of course do a little trash talking, just be sure you can back it up.  And you can also use the headset to send voice messages to your friends on Xbox LIVE if you ever have the time for it.

    The 320GB of memory that the removable hard drive offers should be enough for the average user.  For me it is just enough to fit about 25% of my ever growing collection of HD movies.  I’m pretty sure that in the future we will be seeing 500GB and 1TB models.  But the Xbox 360 console is designed to play games and not really to store media, it’s just a little something that I hope to see soon.

    Modern Warfare 3 is the best looking game in the series yet. The character models are excellent and the animations are way better compared to Modern Warfare two. It isn’t the most remarkable game in terms of pure graphical accomplishment but still it is able to give the  feeling you’d expect from the Modern Warfare series and is still rather impressive considering it keeps a steady 60 frames per second.

    The music scores of the previous games coupled with abundant new sound effects boost every condition of the game. Every gun sounds more destructive, every mission is awe-inspiring, and everywhere you go the action never stops. I am a firm believer that great sound can make or break a game or a movie and I’m happy to say that in this area, the game succeeds very well. Occasionally the music comes over a little too strong, making you aware of its presence rather than staying in the background providing an unconscious ambiance but on the whole, it excels at making you worry about what’s coming without tipping you off completely.

    I’m giving this game and the super cool customized console a 9/10 because I believe there is always room for improvement.  If armed robbers in France are willing to steal a truck with 6,000 copies of this game then it’s gotta be worth it  J
