Edvarcl Heng | Oct 11, 2006
Sit back, plug in and relax. The iRocker is a chair with a docking difference. Besides built-in speakers, a bass unit and an adjustable back, it also has an iPod dock. It's not a big thing in these Made-For-iPod days, but this here arse cushion seeks to vacuum your bank account with prices ranging from US$99 to US$599.

Sony NW-S203F: Keep running
Edvarcl Heng | Oct 10, 2006
Since the iPod and Nike combo is still waddling its way to Asia, Sony decided to make like the hare and hop to the finish line. Who said slow and steady wins the race? We had our foot on the pedometer-enabled NW-S203F and it was a blast. We've seen flashy gym rats stealthily snuck their iPods under their shorts when they spied us huffing and puffing with the Sony. Talk about gym glam.

Creative Xmod: Free your music
Edvarcl Heng | Oct 04, 2006
Singapore-based Creative seems intent on up-sampling the average music listening experience. Branded under the X-Fi Xtreme Fidelity platform, the new Xmod is a small hardware module which sits in between an audio player (PC, notebook, MP3 player) and an audio listening device (headphones, speakers).
Creative touts the Xmod to be capable of up-converting compressed digital music to a level beyond that of even CD quality. Within the device are two essential features; the X-Fi Crystalizer (audio up-convertor) and the X-Fi CMSS 3D (virtual surround sound).
The X-Fi Crystalizer works essentially by indulging in a bit of compression reverse engineering. It selects and restores audio streams in a digital track that has been marred by compression artifacts, allowing previously lost details like cymbal crashes to be heard again. Sounds yummy, and we can't wait to audition it once it is made available in late October. S$139 (US$93.02) a piece.
