It’s really, REALLY, hard to find a camera any more without an LCD display, so I was definitely shocked to find the OneShot camera, a camera so tiny that it’s about the same size, length and width, as your thumb.

There is no LCD display here.  No slots for flash memory, either.  But it apparently somehow manages to not only come with face detection, but also never need batteries.  This camera actually recharges like some of those flashlights you see–all you have to do is shake it.

The OneShot seems to not only run on a dynamo but also offers no expansions in memory.  This may be one of the weirdest cameras I’ve ever SEEN.

March 19th will see the Japan only release of 4 new “Candy Colored” PSP 3000’s.  Looking very shiny and tasty, it’s a shame US consumers won’t get a chance at purchase.  Fingers can be crossed for what the future may bring however.  In addition, for $279 you get a 4Gb Duo Memory Stick, a handstrap, and a pouch.  Seems a little pricey to me, considering you can get a good ole’ US PSP 3000 and a 4Gb stick for under $200.

Today Sandisk announced their new Micro SD card, the SlotMusic. Each card will have a minimum capacity of 1GB and will play back music at up to 320 kilobytes per second. Every card will be preloaded with DRM free content from artists around the globe. The current publishers involved are EMI Music, Sony BMG, Universal Music Group and Warner Music Group artists. Video will also be available at the artists discretion. Any leftover space can be used for limewire any other files you want! As of yet, it is unknown which albums will be featured, the price, and when it will be released but we’ll keep our ears pricked.

Sandisk today announced their new 32gb Extreme III CompactFlash card trying to prove that big memory doesn’t mean slower cards. It comes with 30mb/s which is not a bad speed for something of it’s size but do we really need a card with so much memory?

Called Portomedia, the start up plans to offer movies via a proprietary USB flash drive and reader, with a supposed ultra fast download/upload speed (95 Mbps). To obtain movies – you can either rent or buy – you must visit one of the company’s touch screen kiosks that’ll be found in supermarkets, etc. At the kiosk, which contains 100s of movies on hard drives, you insert the flash drive, enter payment, and the movie is transferred in less than a minute. Currently their site doesn’t detail cost and expiration time of the rentals. They company is based out of Ireland, so don’t expect it state side any time soon.

Wii fans, meets the Wii USB flash drive. Push the ‘A’ button to expose the ‘male’ part of the USB stick. Hold down the ‘A’ button to push it back in. Looks like you can pick up these pint sized Wii remote flash drives in sizes 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB. Comes in white or black. I’m waiting on pricing info.

Fujistu began ‘offering’ its first set of ‘solid state drive’, or as I have awkwardly called them Flash Memory (hard drive) Based notebooks, today. The drives are set to appear in the touchscreen Lifebook P1610 and B6210. There will be two sizes available: 16GB and 32GB and will carry a premium of $500 and $1,300 respectively. According to Informationweek, Fujitsu will start by targeting companies that are looking to order 50+ notebooks, so I don’t expect these specific models on store shelves in the very near future, but sometime soon (I really don’t know and I’m just inferring – take it or leave it). The P1610 weighs a mere 2.2lbs, while the B6210 weighs 3.2lbs. The current P1610 and B6210 go for about $2k and $1400 respectively.
