Hooks up to your HD TV via ASUS Ultra Wideband HDMI Eee keyboard

asuskeyboardhdAsus is set to release its new Eee keyboard later this summer, with the first review samples scheduled for August and the new Eee-branded device soon set to feature wireless streaming of high-definition content to your TV.

While Asus is still to confirm exact specification and pricing on the new Eee keyboard, the company’s UK Marketing Manager John Swatton informed TechRadar today that, “technology improves so much that, even in six months [since the unveiling of the wireless version at CeBit], the specification may well be better than even we originally thought.”

Ultra wideband HDMI

As for the promise of being able to wirelessly stream your high definition content from your lovely new slim Eee keyboard to your telly via Asus’ ultra wideband HDMI tech, that has also still to be confirmed for a late 2009 launch.

“It is not a proven technology yet, so our engineers are still testing it out,” added Swatton.

The Eee keyboard is, as he noted, the “first product of its kind in its segment, so it is imperative that we get it right.”

Whether the first batch of Eee keyboards feature wireless HDMI streaming or not, they are definitely set to feature the standard Wi-Fi as well as an in-built speaker, microphone, a 5-inch touchscreen display and a 32GB SSD to store your high def movies on.

TechRadar cannot wait to get our mitts on the first review samples heading our way in August, mainly because it will mean we need never leave the comfort of our couch ever again!

JVC Sophisti NXD Series: Looks Good, Sounds Good

NX-D7_ASIA

 

 

Manila, Philippines — Finally, a compact component system that will be worth every peso. JVC is introducing the NX-D Series DVD compact component systems, a new line of products under the Sophisti Advanced Living Entertainment System. The most prominent feature of the series ? what they call the Slant Style Design ? is embedded with JVC’s sound improving technologies. The Slant Style Design is literally a physical design feature that is aesthetically nice to look at as well as technically devised to improve sound quality.

It has other cool features too. Like the Motion Sensor touch panel controls. Just bring your hand near the unit and the controls automatically illuminate! Video signals for the Sophisti NX-D series are superb as well. The NX-D7 and NX-D5 have HDMI output with 1080p up-conversion of video signals for enhanced images. HDMI’s single cable connection with a compatible device offers “lossless”, all-digital transmission of both audio and video signals, the keyword being “lossless”.
 
All models also come with JVC-original “My Sound” Adjustment ? an innovative technology that evaluates how music sounds for you, which can differ with each person, music content features, or room environment. “My Sound” Adjustment measures your least audible level by giving 5 test tones (125Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 4kHz, 10kHz), then automatically adjusts each frequency level to make the music sound best for your ears. Three preset memories are available to save your settings, and the reproduced music will be especially customized for you.

Connectivity options with other devices are another thing to look forward to in this series. The NX-D7 is ready for Bluetooth Wireless Technology. With an optional Bluetooth adaptor, you can wirelessly stream music from compatible digital audio players, mobile phones, or PCs. Bluetooth compatible devices can be used as remote controls with display, providing easy operation at your fingertips. You can also wirelessly stream NX-D7’s audio source (CD, DVD, USB, etc.) to Bluetooth compatible headphones. The

system supports

 

A2DP and AVRCP Bluetooth profiles.

USB Music Recording on the other hand, allows you to record CD music directly onto a USB device in MP3 format, without having to use your PC. With the NX-D7, you can even record from the radio, karaoke, or external devices via AUX input. Record whole albums or select the tracks you want, and you’re ready to take music out ? to listen in your car or anywhere you like on the USB device.
Designed to complement flat panel TVs, in sleek Slant Style and glossy black finish, Sophisti NX-D is a fine example of unique design that delivers supreme sound quality bringing new dimensions to home entertainment.

Cablesson HDMI 1.4 Cable

The new spec HDMI 1.4, allows Cablesson HDMI cable to handle 3-D HD content and 4K high-definition formats used in digital cinemas, which have much higher resolution than the 2K or 1080p content available on Blu-ray disc.

The devices will be able to send and receive data via 100 Mb/sec Ethernet, making them instantly ready for any IP-based application. The new specification will also add an Audio Return Channel that will reduce the number of cables required to deliver audio upstream for processing and playback.

Cablesson MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) Cable

MHL technology is an audio/video interface that connects portable consumer electronics devices, such as mobile phones, digital cameras, camcorders and portable media players, to HDTVs using a single cable via the television’s standard HDMI® input port.
