SongBird : no more itunes + limewire …
Like iTunes, Songbird has a mini-player which unlike iTunes, mini-player, looks great. Songbird has a lot going for it, but they still need to incorporate some key features that this preview leaves out. Things like an equalizer are absent in this preview. Once sufficient devices support, including iPod support, makes it into Songbird, Apple may need to watch their back - everyone loves the little open source app that makes it big, *cough* Firefox. Songbird may very well be THE music player/manager for all Linux users, beating out Amarok and RhthymBox. The preview released today is a “proof-of-concept” distribution, so it was only available for Windows. There is, however, a strong possibility of Songbird being released on Linux and Mac in the near future. I hope to hear more about Songbird in the future. Download the preview (from yousendit because Songbird’s server is down) and let me know what you think.

New PSP 3000 Model Announced…
Better in every way for portable fans.
August 20, 2008 - The PSP design crew apparently never sits still. During its Games Convention press conference over in Leipzig, Germany, Sony took the wraps off of the much-rumored PSP 3000. The new device has the same base functionality as the current PSP (known as PSP slim, aka the PSP 2000), and in fact looks pretty much the same. However, there are of course a couple new features.
The PSP 3000 will include a built-in microphone for use with Skype and Go Messenger. It will also feature an "enhanced" LCD screen, with more vibrant colors and reduced glare when using it outside. Check out these images.
The system will launch in Europe on October 15th for 199 Euros, with the PSP slim dropping to 169 Euros. The new system will be available in a variety of packages with single game bundles. Options will include the likes of Harry Potter, Buzz! Quiz Master, Go Messenger, FIFA 09 and more.
Since this is a European conference, the pricing and release date are only applicable to European territories for now, though we should be getting word from the US side in the near future on those details.
UPDATE
Sony America has now chimed in with details for North American folk on the system. The system will be available in two different bundles as well as a core package. Here are the options:
Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters Entertainment Pack
Available on October 14 for $199.99
PSP 4GB Memory Entertainment Pack
Available in November for $199.99
A core pack will also be available, which will simply package a piano black PSP 3000 for $169.99 later this year.

LEGO MP3 Player
One of the most popular of all the kids’ toys in their toy box, Lego continues to be a hit with children of all ages. If you think of Lego as the old standard sets, you may need to reconsider. No longer just a plain set of interlocking blocks, Lego offers a wide variety of standard sets as well as theme packages. Racing cars, dinosaurs, Star Wars and city building are just a few of the theme sets available. These sets combine the fun of building with the imagination of children and adults alike to provide entertainment for the whole family. Parents and children enjoy working together to create imaginative buildings, projects and just spending time together doing something fun.
Creativity is the key to Lego. Children and adults alike can use their imaginations to design whatever they can picture. The easy to manipulate and interlock blocks allow for easy construction of projects. The sets can all be interchanged, so it is possible to use parts and pieces with one set in combination with another. This will really allow the imagination of both adults and children to be able to create some unique projects and designs.
We have seen LEGO Games which are pretty cool, now it’s time to turn to Gadgets. This cute looking LEGO-Style MP3 Player comes in five different colors and supports microSD Card upto 2GB.
For charging and transfer of supported files (supported file formats: MP3 and WMA) all you have to do is connect your MP3 Player to your computer’s USB Port with provided USB Cable. Full charged player will 6-10 hours playback time.
