Lettore musicassette con conversione digitale rapida
USB Cassette Capture Player è uno speciale lettore compatto di musicassette che da un lato può riprodurre a buona qualità la musica salvata sul nastro e dall’altro permette una rapida e agevole digitalizzazione dei brani. Uno strumento ideale per convertire la musica analogica in formato digitale in un gadget messo in vendita dal mitico store Brando di Hong Kong. Qui sopra un’immagine dello strumento.
USB Cassette Capture Player ricorda da vicino un vecchio walkman per ascoltare musica in mobilità e in effetti la sua prima funzionalità è proprio quella di riprodurre brani contenuti sulle vecchie musicassette o audiocassette che dir si voglia.
La sua seconda funzionalità e però quella di convertire rapidamente i brani da analogico in digitale in formato mp3 così da riascoltare poi il tutto sui dispositivi di ultima generazione come lettori multimediali, sul computer, smartphone, tablet, ecc…
E’ possibile acquistare USB Cassette CapturePlayer presso Brando per un costo di 26 dollari ossia circa 20 euro, un’idea regalo originale e sicuramente apprezzata per i più nostalgici della mitica cassetta o per chi vuole digitalizzare la propria collezione.

XBee grows up, delivers WiFi to DIYers and Arduino enthusiasts
Digi Launches Wi-Fi Version of Popular XBee Module
-Sharing a common hardware and software footprint, low-power XBee Wi-Fi modules enable a single board design with multiple wireless frequencies and protocols-
MINNETONKA, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Digi International (NASDAQ: DGII) today introduced the XBee® Wi-Fi, an embedded module that enables industry leading low power, serial-to-Wi-Fi networking in the popular XBee form factor. Because of the XBee's common footprint and application programming interface (API), customers can now create a single board design for wireless products that supports 802.15.4, ZigBee, ZigBee Smart Energy, 2.4 GHz, 900 and 868 MHz, Wi-Fi and proprietary DigiMesh protocols.
"XBee modules offer developers tremendous flexibility and are extremely easy to use," said Larry Kraft, senior vice president of global sales and marketing, Digi International. "By adding a low-power Wi-Fi module to the XBee product family we give customers the fastest and most flexible way to get Wi-Fi up and running on their systems."
Ideal for energy management, wireless sensor networks and intelligent asset management, the XBee Wi-Fi offers 802.11 b/g/n networking and flexible SPI and UART serial interfaces. Because the module includes the 802.11 b/g/n physical layer, baseband MAC and TCP/IP stack, developers can add Wi-Fi to their products simply by connecting to the XBee Wi-Fi's serial port. The XBee Wi-Fi is fully tested at manufacture and comes with modular certification for the U.S., E.U., Canada and a number of other countries, further reducing the time to market, development expense and design complexity.
XBee Wi-Fi development kits are available now for $149. For more information about the XBee Wi-Fi, visit http://www.digi.com/xbeewifi.

ASUS Eee Pad Slider priced in Portuguese catalog, manhandled on camera (video)
ASUS first showed off its Eee Pad Slider what seems forever ago. That was way, way back at CES, amongst the deluge of tablety announcements. The keyboard-hiding Honeycomb device is finally on its way, having been given an August release date in the UK and recently hitting the FCC in the States. The 10.1-inch tablet just popped up in the August catalog for the Phone House (the Carphone Warehouse's brand outside the UK) catalog in Portugal, priced at €349 ($497) under contract with ZON -- that's down from €479 ($684) without contract. The forthcoming tablet also hammed it up for the camera recently -- video of that after the break.
[Thanks, Zack and Pedro]

Orange Switzerland is expecting Nokia’s N9 on September 15th
Release date info for Nokia's sweet slab of Meego has been scarce, but now Orange Switzerland's webpage announces the N9 is coming its way September 15th. Last month Swedish carrier 3 Group promised it would arrive there September 23rd, while some retailer in Kazakhstan is apparently listing them for sale August 19th. We're not quite ready to whip out our passport and translator for a taste of the (not) zombie OS's brains yet, but we'll keep an eye out for any more release date information as it comes.

Netflix plugin for ChromeOS hits v1.0.2, is an official release around the corner?
When Google Chromebooks started arriving without the Netflix streaming we'd been promised we were predictably bummed, but that may be rectified soon. While Chromebook owners attuned to beta channel updates first noticed an entry for a Netflix plugin last month, it still couldn't actually play movies and didn't appear on older, single-core Atom powered Cr-48 laptops. Fast forward to the present, where one of our friendly comment moderators, masterofrandom has spotted this updated v1.0.2 plugin lurking in the depths of his murdered out 12-incher. There's still no playback to be had, but we're figuring Netflix didn't update the version number past 1.0 because it's finally figured out the perfect queue management system. Chromebook owners or prospective owners (and by extension, Linux users) still awaiting Watch Instantly streaming -- your alert level is at Vermilion.
[Thanks, masterofrandom]
