Wacom Pen and Touch Tablet accepts multitouch

Wacom-Bamboo-Pen-and-Touch-multitouch-tabletWacom tablets are very good for when you want to pen your thoughts onto your computer, and their most recent offering is the Bamboo Pen and Touch, which accepts multitouch.

I get the feeling that Wacom looked at the iPhone and iPod Touch and said: “hey, let’s give our customers some of that”. The Pen and Touch is about the end result, and it has some very lovely pen and touch features.

You can read my review here to find out more about it.

Ainol V8000HDV can support 1280p HD video playback

ainol-v8000hdv-1280p_468It is good to see that most PMPs are getting HD video support, and this one Ainol V8000HDV can do 1280p playback support.

It has a 4.3 inch 800 x 480 screen, but it does have an HDMI output to play video on a larger screen. It has 16GB worth of storage, and supports formats like TS, MP4, AVI, MKV, MPG, PSP, DAT, WMV, VOB, ASF, RMVB, RM, MOV, M2V, QT, and M2A. It will cost about $142, but I don’t have any word about availability.
