Call Of Duty: World At War Released

Filed under: Gaming, Launch Pad — Tags: , , , , , , , , , — Annkur @ 2:03 am

Call Of Duty is an action packed series that gives you a real World War feeling. Having enjoyed the previous editions of this superb action series - World At War looks tempting. Though I am yet to have my hands on it; here are the industry reactions to COD: World At War that was released on 11th Nov for Microsoft Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, Sony PlayStation 2 & 3, Windows PCs and Nintendo DS.

World At War begins during the Pacific campaign in 1944 with The First Marine Division fighting the Japanese at Peleliu in the Palau Islands, east of the Philippines. The U.S. assault, according to Military History Online had the highest casualty rate of any War in the Pacific amphibious invasion.

“Using the same engine as Call of Duty 4, World at War looked predictably sharp. Light beams shining through the dense jungle and other whiz-bang explosions were on display. Speaking of that jungle, the soldiers wore camouflage that seemed to blend in even better than Solid Snake, a nice touch.”

Nokia E63 is now official - Priced approx $250

Filed under: Launch Pad — Tags: , , , , , — Annkur @ 6:15 pm

The much rumored and leaked plastic body E71 aka Nokia E63 is now official. E63 offers 3G but no GPS or HSDPA. Available in two colors ruby red and ultramarine blue; I might trade in my E61i for this one!

Whilst appealing to a new group of consumers with a design that feels great in the hand and has two new colors, the Nokia E63 is still very much a member of the Eseries family. Petersen continues, “People use Eseries to access their corporate mail, review their calendar and work in their business network, so the Nokia E63 still includes Wi-Fi connectivity, easy access to Mail for Exchange and dedicated key access to contacts, calendar and email.”

The Nokia E63 also includes Files on Ovi, a service where people can get remote access to their PC files even when their computer is offline. Anyone buying the handset will have access to 1GB of online file storage for free.

Sony Ericsson tries to show off the C905 8.1MP Camera

Filed under: Launch Pad — Tags: , , , , — Annkur @ 9:15 pm

Sony Ericsson is banking big on the C905! And here is what they have to promote it. An entire AD Campaign shot by the C905. The same would be in December’s issue of FHM. SE is eying for a Christmas release of the C905 featuring the much hyped 8.1 megapixel camera.  While the debate is still how if Camera-phones would replace your basic digital cameras, this particular SE promotion doesn’t amuse many.

“your ad uses a professional model, a fashion photographer, professional lighting, and makeup, not to mention all that retouching, and we’re supposed to be impressed with the camera?  [Engadget]

Asus to launch Rs 10000 ($200) EEE PC in 2009

Filed under: First look, Tech Industry News — Tags: , , , , — Annkur @ 2:23 am

A notebook for INR Rs 10000!! Yes the $200 Asus EEE is expected sometime in 2009. No details on screen size or configuration is available, but I can assure you that its not the Windows 7 powered EEE that we are talking about here.

We expect a Linux powered system, but it is being suggested that this one might well be a 10″ LCD instead of the 7″ or 8.9″ which Asus plans to phase out. Unlikely I would say!
