Nikon shares rise amid mirrorless speculation
Like UnlikeFiled in: Nikon
Shares in Nikon have risen for the third day in a row after increased speculation about an impending launch of the company's first mirrorless camera.
A report in the Nikkei newspaper which claimed that the new Nikon compact system camera will be launched by the end of the year with a price of 70,000-100,000 yen (approximately £565-£800) with a kit lens seems to have been the major reason for the share price increase.
Nikon, along with its main rival, Canon, has yet to enter the mirrorless market, while Sony, Samsung, Panasonic, Olympus and Pentax all have models on the market.

Motorola readying own Facebook phone
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorola
Motorola looks like it's going to be the next to join the Facebook phone race with the launch of a dedicated handset.
The snappily-named Motorola EX225 has been outed over on the Bluetooth accreditation site Bluetooth SIG, and shows a simple QWERTY-keyboarded device with a little blue Facebook key in the corner.
There aren't any Android buttons on show, so Motorola has either developed its own OS to power the device, or gone with something more widespread like Qualcomm's Brew - unless the company is still working out where to place the Android keys.

Droid Bionic gets extended battery treatment, proudly struts its freshman 15
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesMotorolaDROID BIONIC
As you're aware, the Droid Bionic features a 1735mAh battery that provides a slight bump in capacity over its competition -- namely the Droid Charge and Thunderbolt. Still, if you plan to push this LTE powerhouse beyond moderate usage, you'll likely find yourself in a feverish hunt for wall outlets before the day is through. Now, Android Central gives us a peek at the Bionic's extended battery, and so long as you're willing to live with the (super obvious) protrusion, you'll find the latest Droid riding high with a 2760mAh cell. Perhaps it's not the sleekest solution in the world, but hey, at least it's not quite so insulting as the extended battery on Verizon's first LTE handset -- take a p...

Mitsubishi Releases HC9000D Projector at CEDIA 2011
Like UnlikeFiled in: ProjectorsMitsubishiHC9000D
After several months of anticipation, Mitsubishi has finally released their HC9000D projector. The device is the company’s latest 3D projector and will be on display this week at CEDIA 2011. The HC9000D features 1100 ANSI lumens, a 150000:1 contrast ratio, and full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution.

Other major features include a 23 dB noise level, a 4000 hour lamp life, and a wide array of image adjustment features. “Our customers get a hu...

Sony gives more detail of its OLED viewfinder
Like UnlikeFiled in: CamerasSony
Sony Japan has published more detail about the OLED viewfinder used in the NEX-7, SLT-A77, SLT-A65 and the optional EVF for the NEX-5N. The display is manufactured by Sony and is based on white OLEDs that sit behind colored filters, rather than the red, green and blue colored OLEDs used in many other displays. This could explain the apparent higher color accuracy of the Sony display (since it's easier to adjust the behavior of a color filter than change the emission color of an OLED).

Symbian getting Microsoft Apps in Q4, Office coming in 2012
Like UnlikeFiled in: Operating SystemsMicrosoftNOKIA
We have to admit it, Nokia did well in making us believe that Symbian is a burning platform. That’s why we can totally understand some people’s understanding that the phone maker will turn its back on Symbian as soon as the first Windows Phone devices hit the market. But it seems that those statements have fired back hard at Nokia and it’s going to great lengths trying to convince everyone that Symbian is cool again with major updates like Symbian Belle and new devices.
