AT&T Sony Ericsson Z750a

AT&T Sony Ericsson Z750a

The AT&T Sony Ericsson Z750a will soon be available. The AT&T Sony Ericsson Z750a is a nice looking flip phone, with a very shiny exterior. It looks great, but it also attracts fingerprints. The phone feels a little bulky at .8 inches thick and 3.9 ounces in weight. Also, the plastic casing looks pretty cheap and flimsy, but what else can you expect from a non-high-end phone?

The AT&T Sony Ericsson Z750a will be available in gray, pink & purple when it releases in early April. It’ll be the first 3G Sony Ericsson to release with the carrier. While it has it’s problems, the AT&T Sony Ericsson Z750a does have a nice feature set, great display, user-friendly controls & the handset looks very nice.

Sony MEX-BT3600U in-car CD tuner with Bluetooth

To enjoy your personal collection in your car all you need is the Sony MEX-BT3600U in-car CD tuner. You simply need to plug in and play your favorite tunes on your car stereo via USB digital music player or play music from your compatible phone or MP3 player wirelessly via Bluetooth. The new Quick-BrowZer interface lets you search for MP3 music library ultra quickly. You can even talk hands-free through your car stereo via Bluetooth. There's also a front panel AUX input that connects with the headphone output of any personal audio player. The unit uses Bluetooth A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) for high stereo quality digital audio streaming over a Bluetooth connection. An indicator on the head unit's display confirms connection with a nearby Bluetooth device. Bluetooth AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) allows control of Bluetooth music source functions like track skip and pause directly from your car stereo.
The in-dash head unit links wirelessly to the growing range of mobile phones from Sony Ericsson and other manufacturers that support Bluetooth connectivity. To ensure clear dialogue during calls there's a sensitive, high-quality microphone with echo cancellation technology that's concealed behind the head unit's front panel. Music is paused automatically when a call is accepted and music resumes when the call is ended.
Key head unit functions can be controlled using the card-sized infrared remote.
The Sony MEX-BT3600U in-car CD tuner with Bluetooth connectivity and USB will be available throughout Europe from May 2008.

Sony's 25 megapixel Alpha A900 to arrive in August or September

Sony's 25 megapixel Alpha A900 to arrive in August or September

We already spent some time grappling with Sony's monster full-frame Alpha A900 prototype at PMA, but the company's displaying an updated version at the Photo Imaging Expo in Japan, and reps are apparently now saying that the 24.6 megapixel DSLR will be launched during IFA in August or Photokina in September. Other than that, there's not much we didn't already know -- which means there's really not that much at all -- but there are some more shots of this nifty clear-bodied display unit at the read link for your ocular delight.

Sony intros two new HDMI-equipped photo printers

Sony intros two new HDMI-equipped photo printers

While it's likely not the first thing you look for in a photo printer, Sony's addition of an HDMI out to two of its new models will likely help move a few more units, especially among those without an HDMI-equipped camera. Getting that welcome addition is the company's DPP-FP95 and DPP-FP75 models, which are apparently virtually identical except for color and screen size, with the former boasting a 3.6-inch LCD and the latter packing a slightly smaller 3.2-inch display. Otherwise, you can expect support for Sony's trademark BIONZ technology on each, along with support for wireless transfers to a PC with the addition of a Bluetooth dongle. No word on pricing or availability just yet though.

Sony's 13.3-inch VAIO VGN-SZ791N gets reviewed

Sony's 13.3-inch VAIO VGN-SZ791N gets reviewed

Just glancing at the specifications sheet, you can tell Sony's 13.3-inch VAIO VGN-SZ791N packs quite the punch for its size. After all, who wouldn't be pleased with a 2.5GHz T9300 CPU, discrete GeForce 8400M graphics, 4GB of RAM and a built-in optical drive? Still, what looks good on paper doesn't always translate into perfection on your lap, but according to a glowing review posted over at PC Mag, this is one of those cases in which it does. When benchmarked, this critter bested the highly-praised Asus U6S, Acer Ferrari 1100, Fujitsu P8010 and MacBook Air in the vast majority of tests -- heck, it even cranked out a whopping 2 frames-per-second running Crysis at high quality (seriously, that's an accomplishment). All in all, this beauty managed to impress in basically every category, and with 4.5 out of 5 stars and an Editor's Choice badge, it seems that you'd be hard pressed to find a better ultraportable for $2,500.

Sony Launches New DVD-Player

Sony Launches New DVD-Player

Looks like Sony will be releasing another DVD-player similar to the DVP-NS53P called the DVP-NS700H. The only difference is that this one has a few minor adjustments such as an HDMI output and an upscaling function. The DVP-NS700H is now available in Japan for about 10.000JPY or 100€. It’s not the best deal Sony has proposed, but if you’re willing to pay that much then we wont stop you.

Sony Ericsson’s Z555 arrives at the FCC’s front door for approval

Sony Ericsson’s Z555 arrives at the FCC’s front door for approval

We cannot seem to get enough of the FCC leaks, next up is the Sony Ericsson Z555, which has just hit the FCC for approval. In case you’ve forgotten, the Z555 was unveiled alongside a slew of new Sony Ericsson phones back at CES 2008 in Las Vegas. Its key features include an embedded OLED screen on top of its exterior flap that shows the time, among other things, and it also supports gesture-based controls via an accelerometer, enabling a user to silence an incoming call (or ignore it entirely) just by shaking the handset. It also includes a 1.3-megapixel camera, FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity, and a Memory Stick Micro slot. As you can see, the Z555 is a pretty basic phone. And it is—it’s pretty, AND it’s basic.

Sony unveils four E-Series 3LCD projectors in Asia-Pacific

Sony unveils four E-Series 3LCD projectors in Asia-Pacific

If you reckoned that Sony's VPL-EX4 and VPL-ES4 were getting a bit long in the tooth, we suppose Sony agrees. Across the way (in Asia-Pacific, to be precise), Sony has launched four new PJs on us: the VPL-EW5, VPL-EX50, VPL-EX5 and VPL-ES5. According to the company, the whole lot is aimed at boardroom masters, but these 3LCD units and their 2,500 ANSI lumens would certainly hold their own after hours. Additionally, the first three incorporate Sony's BrightEra imaging technology, and you'll find resolutions as high as WXGA (1,280 x 800) and contrast ratios up to 900:1. For more specifics on each, check out the nitty-gritty in the read link below.
