Princeton PCK-UAV UHF video / audio transmitter

Aug 19th 2006 10:49PM on Engadget

I gotta correct myself, this does not use a receiver like the Rabbit and the X10 offering. It apparently broadcasts a low power UHF signal to any TV. Sort of a video Mr. Microphone, or a video version of an MP3 FM transmitter.

Incidentally, UHF uses a compact loop antenna, not a pair of rabbit ears.

The concept and basic functionality of this product has been around since the 70s in the form of “the Rabbit” and some even older VHS transmitter-receiver setups. We’re talkin way old, like back to the dawn of cable TV and/or VCRs.

I think it looks pretty cool, kind of a retro transistor radio dial thing going on.

Needs to be more than 512 though

Apple invented the very idea of digital music, so any other MP3 player is an iPod rip off.

Apple is also the true originator of the very idea of a notebook computer, or in fact any black or white vaguely rectangular portable device.

This is an obvious Apple rip off.

IT’s really just a matter of Chinese case manufactures smartening up there designs a little. Companies like Lian Lee or Silverstone already make some really nice looking and functional cases. Maybe the MS guidelines will help others, maybe not…

My Atlon64, DFI, G.Skill, OCZ, nVidia rig in an Antec Sonata piano black case looks pretty good to me.

Pentax K100D DSLR reviewed

Jul 29th 2006 12:09PM on Engadget

Just like a million other amateur photographers I still have my original Pentax K100 and a couple of K-mount lenses sitting in my closet. This new digital version looks pretty good and the price is right, but only time will tell if it can become the new de facto standard for students of photography.

I have to assume they’ve improved the difficult film loading and torn sprocket holes many of us experienced.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
