We’re kind of expecting Nvidia to blow away with some new striking cards after AMD-ATI had released the ATI Radeon HD 3870 X2 graphic card. Although nothing is official yet, Albatron was kind enough to present the new GeForce 9800 GX2 at CeBIT 2008, so you can get a glimpse without the specs, price or availability, but don’t hold your breath to long, as we hear the launch date is somewhere later this month.

The ultra mini houses a large slide out QWERTY keyboard, a 40GB / 60GB hard drive, memory card reader, a built-in 1.3MP camera, a TV output, WiFi 802.11b / g, two USB 2.0 ports, all adorned with a nice modern-tech sleeky design. No price or availability details, but we expect to see this handsome around very soon.

Sony has announced a new PSP cradle, to be available in Japan in April 24th. The new desirable cradle enables PSP users to output movies or games straight to their TV box and control it directly from their couch with a supplied IR remote. You get the choice to choose between a $46 cradle or a $62 cradle, bundled with A/V cables. It seems the cradle is a must product for PSP users and we welcome the idea, hopefully to be hitting our western shores - soon.

Hauppauge Digital unveils a new portable media player at the CeBIT show in Hannover. The new pMP (no mistake) comes with a 3.5″ screen (320×240), SD/MMC slot, USB 2.0 port and an e-book reader. The well-known TV cards manufacturer brings its expertise to the player, adding a “double twin” TV tuner for Vista and Media Center, mobile Freeview TV reception, EPG and text functions. It is compatible with AVI, MPG, VOB, MPEG4, ASP, and DivX XviD 4.0/5.0 video files, MP3, WAV audio files and JPEG image files. Hauppauge claims the 200gm device can run up to 4 hours of video and will be available around April for €150. With a clean metal design, the new pMP might have a great potential, but c’mon Hauppauge, can’t you hire some talented designers? The machine looks like and old rusty transistor.
