I know it is summer now, but are models dressed in bikinis actually required to help push a product? The iStation N7tu from Digital Cube of Korea brings 7″ of viewing goodness in 800 x 480 resolution, featuring both T- and S-DMB capability. Users will be able to enjoy real time traffic information with the TPEG service, while S-DMB service is free for up to three years before you start forking out monthly fees. Powered by AMD’s Alchemy AU1250 processor, the N7tu relies on the SirFStar III GPS chipset for navigation purposes. Features include a 30GB/60GB hard drive, karaoke, a rear camera, and A/V input. Prices start from $650 onwards.

Sony has unveiled a brand new portable DVD player in UK that goes by the model number DVP-FX850. This takes a clamshell form factor like many others of its kind, but with an added caveat - the 8″ TFT high resolution LCD display boasts a twisting mechanism that swivels to the optimal viewing position instead of having you suffer from neck cramps after the Matrix Trilogy. Supported formats include DVD-R/-RW, DVD+R/+RW, DVD+R DL, CD, CD-R/RW, JPEG, and MP3. Features include a powerful embedded speaker, twin headphone jacks to share the current movie with someone, and a rechargeable battery that offers 6 hours of continuous playback. It will be released on 2nd July at an undisclosed price.

The B-Speech Alpha Bluetooth Handsfree Kit is extremely impressive at first glance, boasting a full drop-down alphanumeric LCD display complete with enough memory to store up to 300 numbers, a pair of speakers, and the option to tack on GPS functionality that displays your current position on your cellphone. Powered by a trio of AAA batteries, you get up to 9 hours of talk time and 20 days of standby time. The LCD swivels up to 190 degrees, displaying the caller’s number and name at a glance. This truly comprehensive handsfree solution looks easy to use and looks better than wearing a bulging headset from your ear. It will retail for approximately €99.

Most GPS navigation systems these days seem to come with DMB as a standard feature, and this is no different from this GPS navigation system from Reigncom. Boasting a 7″ TFT LCD display, you get a circular 1.15″ mini PMOLED screen as well for easier user interaction that comes great when confirming operations or displaying the next turn you’re supposed to take at an upcoming junction. In addition to GPS navigation, you get a 1.3 megapixel camera and motion-sensing capability that captures images only when movement is detected. This Reigncom offering also includes audio & video playback and USB connectivity. Doesn’t look as though it’ll head towards the US though, so tough luck.

Pentax has certainly outdone itself with the K100D Super digital SLR camera. If the name sounds familiar, you would realize that the K100D Super is a follow up to last year’s K100D model, and this time it boasts Pentax’s own Dust Removal system in addition to support for high-end SDM lenses. Those are about the only changes, while everything else remains the same including the Shake Reduction system, 11-point autofocus system, 16-segment metering system, and the 2.5″ 210k pixel LCD. The K100D Super is tipped to retail for approximately $600 which comes with an AF200G lens. Sounds like a pretty good deal.
