Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T100

The Sony T100 spices up the ultra-slim digital camera market. It comes with 8.1 megapixels, a 5x optically stabilized zoom lens, face detection, and even high-definition output. The trendy and glittery T100 has an enormous 3-inch LCD screen and automatic exposure modes with a smattering of manual controls that makes it appealing to point-and-shooters. It weighs 6 ounces with the battery and Memory Stick Duo card. There is subtle branding on the front that fits the overall style. The camera is also available in red or black. Slide the front panel down and the camera powers up and you’ll see the flash, lens, mic and AF Illuminator sensor. Of note is the Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar glass that’s a 5x non-protruding optical zoom

The DSC-T100 easily slips into a pocket but make sure there’s no change or keys there to prevent scratching the 3-inch LCD screen on the back. The LCD takes up most of the rear real estate, as you’d imagine. There’s just the wide/tele toggle switch, Menu and Home keys as well as the typical four-way controller with center set key. The top of the camera has a shutter button with power and playback keys angled to the side. The right of the camera has the battery/memory card compartment while the bottom simply has a tripod mount and an input for Sony’s bizarre hydra-headed connector that lets you connect it to a TV using A/V inputs or a computer via USB.

With the Sony Cybershot DSC-T100 shooting in low light doesn’t have to result in blurry, grainy photos. Sony’s Super Steady Shot optical image stabilization counters camera shake and stabilize images so you can easily shoot with longer exposure times. Also, it can identify up to 8 faces in the camera’s LCD frame, and automatically adjust white balance and flash as well as focus and exposure for sharp, clear photos. Sony’s Clear raw noise reduction technology will help reduce the picture noise common to low-light exposures.

The camera comes with a typical kit including the body, strap, rechargeable battery/charger, hydra-cable, printed manual and CD ROM with basic software and drivers.

Samsung SGH-T809

Samsung released its new T809 model. Straying from the typical flip phone shell, the T809 is packaged in a sleek slider design.

Creating a striking first impression, the T809 features a large full-color screen, resembling the look and feel of high-end plasma televisions. Slim enough to fit into consumers' pockets, the T809 offers an integrated 1.3-megapixel camera, MP3 player with external stereo speakers, and Bluetooth wireless technology to ensure it doesn't stay hidden for long.

Being that ultra-thin phones are best sellers these days, it's no surprise that the sleek T809 measures under 0.6-inches thin. Built of plastic, rather than metal-alloy as the RAZR and A900, the T809 is a lightweight at just over 3.0 ounces, but lacks the rigidity and sturdy feel the former devices had.

Being wider than other phones, the majority of the front panel prominently displays a large state-of-the-art 262K-color screen. Above, users can capture odd angled photos and video clips with the versatile 1.3-megapixel camera lens. Below, a 5-way navigational keypad is surrounded by Dial, Exit, Cancel, and Left and Right Keys. External speakers on the bottom corners provide an open-air listening experience for music and sounds.On the left side, Volume Keys adjust earpiece and tone levels during calls and standby, while a Headset Jack allows listeners to enjoy music privately. The right edge contains a TransFlash memory card slot for additional space useful for storing MP3 files and photos.

Slid open, the numeric keypad is revealed offering comfortable and convenient menu navigation and text messaging through T9 predictive text.Out of the box, the Samsung SGH-T809 comes with a Standard 800 mAh Li-Ion Battery, Travel Charger, Stereo Handsfree Headset, USB Data Cable, 32 MB TransFlash Card, PC Studio CD, and User Manual.
