It appears the hybrid cam movement is in full swing. Sony announced the HDR-TG1 high definition camera.
Weighing in at only 300g, it’s appears very pocketable with its 32×119x63mm dimensions. This is now the smallest Full HD camcorder.
You can expect to record 1 hour and 50 minutes of 1080i 30 FPS video at 16Mbps on an 8GB MemoryStick. You’ll be able to snap 4 megapixel photos in camera mode and 2.2 megapixel photos while recording video. I’ll assume the video is not interrupted while taking photos like the Sanyo Xacti VPC-HD1000.
As for the lens..
“Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® 10x optical zoom lens and 2-megapixel ClearVidâ„¢ CMOS sensor with Exmorâ„¢-derived technology”

The specs and functionality appear to be a combination of the Sanyo Xacti VPC-HD1000 and the Canon TX1 which isn’t a bad thing at all.
Wish Sony would dump the MemoryStick and just go with SDHC cards though.
It has all the latest...

more Fujitsu U810 Docking StationFrom: rodfathermobile.com

I ordered some accessories last week for the Fujitsu U810 from the Fujitsu store .
One of the items was the docking station. I finally brought it in to work today and took some snapshots with the iPhone.
On the back are 3 USB ports, VGA, LAN, and power. The right side includes an additional USB port to make it 4 total.
