Panasonic Panorama Fo Shizzel
A friend of mine told me to review this camera for him because he didn't have time. Didn't have time? Ummm, I would die (figure of speech people) for a chance to review gadgets for a living.

BenQ rolls out DC-E605 6 megapixel camera

Intel official annoucement on Centrino Pro, adds vPro
Things are shaping up nicely for prospective laptop buyers holding out for Santa Rosa systems before they make the plunge. Intel just confirmed that the platform will be making its way into laptops in the second quarter of this year, and clarified that Centrino Pro is only part of the action, not the whole dealio.
Intel also has come forward with a welcome feature addition for enterprise types: vPro, which Intel unleashed on the desktop side last year, will be included in Centrino Pro, allowing for remote management and upgrades of systems by IT folks, and improved virtualization. Of course, it'll also involve signing up for a smorgasbord of Intel-only parts, such as the 802.11n MIMO WiFi, but that's just the way Intel rolls.
