Neuros LINK - View online Internet video on your TV

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

Neuros has a new box hitting the general market soon - the Neuros LINK, which lets you get all of that video content that’s sitting on the Internet onto your TV. That means content from sites like YouTube, hulu, NBC, CNN and much more can be streamed over to your TV in HD.

The LINK comes with a ‘keymote’ (looks a bit like the old WebTV keyboards) that you can use to search for content. It even plays music, downloaded movies and displays photos. It is WiFi enabled so you can situate it near your TV without having your network and/or computer near by, but comes with Gigabit Ethernet if you’ve got that accessible, as well as 6 USB ports, S/PDIF audio output, and HDMI out.

LINK will tie in with Neuros’ upcoming Neuros.TV site which will allow you to better organize all of the content you’re interested in from the various sites. LINK is currently available directly from Neuros for $299.

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

AT&T, the nation’s largest network operator, has come together with Korean cell phone manufacturer to launch the LG Incite. Touted to be the first true LG smartphone in the US, the Incite does come with a whole host of features that will definitely leave you drooling, although it might not do enough to sway the minds of those who have already set themselves on getting the iPhone 3G. More on the LG Incite right after the jump, specifications and all.

The LG Incite does not fall short when it comes to features, in fact, it is chock full of them. Not only do you get domestic 3G capability, you are able to receive that boon when overseas as well, but you would do well to be prudent then unless you want to get slapped with an insanely large bill when you return home from your business trip halfway across the world. Don’t worry about getting lost either, since there is aGPS to help you find your way around. For moments where you don’t want to rely on your 3G connection, there is always built-in Wi-Fi connectivity to help you take advantage of numerous Wi-Fi hotspots that have mushroomed around us over the years. With Bluetooth 2.0 support, you can now hold handsfree conversations when you’re driving. Powered by Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, included software include Microsoft Office Mobile, Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 and Windows Media Player 10.

For multimedia purposes, the LG Incite comes with a 3″ touch screen display, while the 3 megapixel camera is enough to capture great looking candid shots with video recording capability. Since there is no physical keyboard, you will have to make do with a full QWERTY virtual keyboard ala iphone, but this one goes one up since it boasts haptic keys for vibration feedback. Other features include a microSDHC memory card slot and support for AT&T Navigator.

Interested parties can pick up the LG Incite for $199.99 with a new two-year agreement and mail-in rebate.
