Toshiba Qosmio G25-AV513 first impressions
GearLive posted up a brief “First Impressions” on the new Toshiba Qosmio G25-AV513 Media Center laptop. I’m personally using a Toshiba Qosmio MCE laptop also which I will review shortly. Here’s a blurb from this Pentium M behemoth of a laptop.
The Qosimo G25-AV513 notebook had every media lover at Pepcom’s Holiday Spectacular in awe. When you first look at it, you can’t help but love its sleek design.
With a 2GHz Pentium M, a 17 inch widescreen LCD display, and a 120GB HDD, I’d be drooling too!

Bang & Olufsen and Samsung to come out with a new mobile phone
Bang & Olufsen and Samsung will jointly develop a mobile phone which will make its appearance later this year. The new phone will use typical Bang & Olufsen design and quality which means it will probably be super expensive. Don’t expect a lot of bells and whistles too. The two companies are planning to make a phone that just works - nothing overly fancy in terms of features. It will be good looking and will supposedly sound great. The two companies may decide to develop other mobile phones down the road but they definitely are not developing a phone meant for the mainstream crowd. This one’s going to be expensive folks.
