<a href="http://www.xcellextech.com/Blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/HTC-Evo-3D.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1399" title="HTC Evo 3D" src="http://www.xcellextech.com/Blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/HTC-Evo-3D.jpg" alt="" width="463" height="338" /></a><br />

<p>The best way to make people love a new technology is to sneak it into their pockets.</p>
<p>I remember friends laughing hysterically when I dropped into conversation that I had a colourscreen mobile phone – the world’s first.</p>
<blockquote><p>‘Who on Earth,’ they gasped in between giggles, ‘would want one of those?’</p></blockquote>
<p>The HTC Evo 3D can shoot photos and videos in 3D on its 5MP camera and display them on a 4.3in touchscreen</p>
<p>
<span id="more-1398"></span><br />
<br />
It didn’t help a great deal that the only use of the colour screen was to play a really terrible bowling game – phone cameras were still a glint in an engineer’s eye at this point. But colour caught on by dint of spreading<br />
through every phone brand until there wasn’t anything else to buy. These days the idea of a monochromatic mobile screen seems practically medieval.</p>
<p>HTC is hoping for exactly the same effect with its latest handset – its Evo 3D comes loaded with a glasses free 3D screen, even though the public haven’t exactly been looking at their iPhones in fury thinking, ‘This is<br />
too flat! I can’t live like this!’</p>
<p>It looks great – sharper than the similar glasses-free screen on Nintendo’s 3DS – and as the 3D effects are confined to specific apps, you can safely use the device without carrying emergency supplies of paracetamol.</p>
<p>The 3D effects are solid, subtle and in particular add a real pizzazz to still shots taken on the 3D camera.</p>
<p>The Evo 3D’s twin lenses can also be used for video, which you’ll be able to output to 3D TVs via an HDMI cable – it might well be the first thing most families watch on their 3D TV, bar the odd golf game on Sky.<br />
Hollywood films, games and even TV will come to the Android handset in the future – although you should expect ghastly superhero tripe such as Green Lantern 3D to lead the charge.<br />
But once Marvel and DC Comics have finished clearing their cupboards of their least interesting comic-book heroes (Marvel is planning to make Ant-Man shortly – no lie), there could even be a few good 3D films to watch on it, aside from ones we shoot ourselves.</p>

<p style="text-align: center"><span style="font-size: small"><em>The moving-picture newspapers in Harry Potter movies are being conjured up for real in the US.</em></span></p>

<p style="text-align: center"><a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/minority-report-ads.jpg"><img alt="" width="500" height="210" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/minority-report-ads.jpg" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left">It seems like you can&rsquo;t go anywhere or do anything these days without seeing an advertisement. That feeling is about to get just a little more intense. In the September 18th issue of Entertainment Weekly in New York and LA, readers will be able to see the world&rsquo;s first in-magazine video advertisement. Los Angeles-based company Americhip has developed a 2.7 mm-thick LCD screen which will be used to deliver 25 minutes of video advertisements from CBS and Pepsi.</p>
<p style="text-align: left">Americhip has ventured into many other multi-sensory ads in the past, including ads with scents, lighting, and 3D features. But unlike the other multi-sensory ads, the video screens are actually reusable. They can hold up to 40 minutes of video, and the rechargeable battery lasts for up to 70 minutes. The tiny screens include a USB port, which means that after you&rsquo;re done watching previews for CBS&rsquo;s fall lineup you can load up your own video and impress your mom with a hand-made video greeting card.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_3pI8F7ShSQ&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_3pI8F7ShSQ&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object></p>

<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Logitech Squeezebox Boom </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/logitech-400x266.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/logitech-400x266.jpg" /></a>&nbsp;</p>
<p>College students love music, so the Squeezebox is perfect. The Wi-Fi radio speakers can stream premium music content from online music services, along with internet radio stations. Some of the services offered are Sirius, Rhapsody, Slacker, Pandora, and Last.fm. But that&rsquo;s not all, it also streams music straight from a PC or Mac on a Wi-Fi network. For $5 more, you can add an extension cable to add an iPod, PC or another source. It&rsquo;s available on the Logitech website and will run you $300.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>iPhone 3GS</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/iphone3gs_front21-400x306.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/iphone3gs_front21-400x306.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>The iPhone is still the hottest phone in the market and everyone wants to get their hands on the one of these devices. The iPhone 3GS takes it to another level by offering video recording and editing capability. While many may not like AT&amp;T, its the only carrier if you want the iPhone. The 3GS could end up being your go to device for everything.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Amazon Kindle DX</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/amazon-kindle-dx-official-09-490x49.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/amazon-kindle-dx-official-09-490x49.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Carrying around those heavy textbooks no longer applies with the Amazon DX. It&rsquo;s only 19 ounces and can hold hundred of textbooks for all your classes. You can download books under 60 seconds but most college kids are also pretty savvy internet users, so look online, you&rsquo;ll also get access to textbooks from such educational publishers as Cengage Learning, Pearson and Wiley. The 9.7-inch screen wireless reading device costs $489. If you can find textbooks online, then the cost of the device might not be so bad, considering textbooks can be very expensive.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Playstation 3 Slim</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/ps3slim1_540x3491-400x258.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/ps3slim1_540x3491-400x258.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Sony came out last week and made their gaming console very appealing by making it slimmer, lighter and faster. Most college students will already be in school when Sony releases the gaming console, but it&rsquo;ll be out during the first week of September, so it&rsquo;s not too far away. Plus with the slimmer design, it&rsquo;ll be easier to carry around.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>iPod Touch 3rd Generation/Microsoft Zune HD</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/zune-crunchgear1-400x362.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/zune-crunchgear1-400x362.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Apple is planning to release their 3rd generation iPod Touch music player. It&rsquo;s rumored to be updated with a camera. The iPod Touch is one of the best selling music players out in the market, so why not get the updated version.</p>
<p>If you&rsquo;re not an Apple person, then Microsoft is releasing the Zune HD. It&rsquo;ll offer a touchscreen with a Tegra processor, and updated OS. Plus it looks good enough to compete against Apple&rsquo;s Touch.</p>
<p>The Zune HD will start out at $220 for the 16GB version, while the Apple iPod Touch will probably be in the $250 range for 16GB version.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Macbook Pro</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/apple-macbook-pro-meet-the-new-macb.png"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/apple-macbook-pro-meet-the-new-macb.png" /></a></p>
<p>Apple has lowered the price for their Macbook Pro line and also included the 13-inch in their Pro family. The 13-inch starts out at $1,199, while the 15-inch will run you around $1,699, and then the high end 17-inch, starts out at $2,499. All of the Macbook Pros are available with a student discount on Apple&rsquo;s Education Store.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Brita Ultramax Filter</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/brita.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/brita.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>If you&rsquo;ve ever lived in a dorm room, then you know you never want to drink the water on campus. Most kids end up getting bottled water but that adds up and not really green. To solve that problem, get a Brita filter, better yet, get a Brita Ultramax water dispenser. It&rsquo;ll give you 18 8 ounce glasses of water and has a electronic gauge that&rsquo;ll tell you when it&rsquo;s time to change the filter. The water dispenser will cost you $42. Split it with your roommate and you&rsquo;re looking at $21 for a convenient and healthy water solution.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Nikon Coolpix S1000PJ Projector Camera</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/nikon-s1000pj1-400x312.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/nikon-s1000pj1-400x312.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Teens love taking pics of themselves and their friends and what better way to share them right away instead of waiting for them to be uploaded on Facebook, than on your dorm room wall. The Nikon projector camera solves that problem. It can make a 40-inch picture from six feet away, showing your friends all the stupid things you were doing while getting hammered last night. It&rsquo;s a fun and an expensive camera. But you pay more for the latest features and a projector on a camera is something. The cost of the Nikon projector camera is $429 and will be available soon, in September.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Nintendo DSi</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong><a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/ipod-touch-cases2-400x245.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/ipod-touch-cases2-400x245.jpg" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Nintendo&rsquo;s most popular handheld gaming console will definitely make the breaks between classes a little more fun. No one really studies in between classes right? So, why not pull out your DSi and continue your saved game until it&rsquo;s time to head into Econ 101. The handheld console will run you around $169.99 and is available now.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Shure Professional Headphones </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/shure-400x400.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/shure-400x400.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>I&rsquo;m a big fan of headphones and when Shure, known for their ear phones, released three professional headsets, I wanted one. They&rsquo;re available in 3 different models. Prices for the professional headsets ranges from $59.99 for the entry level headset, $99 for the mid level headsets and $199.99 for the higher end model. They&rsquo;re definitely worth grabbing if you&rsquo;re going to cram for exams and papers. Might as well listen to your music comfortably.</p>

<p>The iPhone is still the hottest phone in the market and everyone wants to get their hands on the one of these devices. The iPhone 3GS takes it to another level by offering video recording and editing capability. While many may not like AT&amp;T, its the only carrier if you want the iPhone. The 3GS could end up being your go to device for everything.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Amazon Kindle DX</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/amazon-kindle-dx-official-09-490x49.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/amazon-kindle-dx-official-09-490x49.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Carrying around those heavy textbooks no longer applies with the Amazon DX. It&rsquo;s only 19 ounces and can hold hundred of textbooks for all your classes. You can download books under 60 seconds but most college kids are also pretty savvy internet users, so look online, you&rsquo;ll also get access to textbooks from such educational publishers as Cengage Learning, Pearson and Wiley. The 9.7-inch screen wireless reading device costs $489. If you can find textbooks online, then the cost of the device might not be so bad, considering textbooks can be very expensive.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Playstation 3 Slim</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/ps3slim1_540x3491-400x258.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/ps3slim1_540x3491-400x258.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Sony came out last week and made their gaming console very appealing by making it slimmer, lighter and faster. Most college students will already be in school when Sony releases the gaming console, but it&rsquo;ll be out during the first week of September, so it&rsquo;s not too far away. Plus with the slimmer design, it&rsquo;ll be easier to carry around.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>iPod Touch 3rd Generation/Microsoft Zune HD</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/zune-crunchgear1-400x362.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/zune-crunchgear1-400x362.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Apple is planning to release their 3rd generation iPod Touch music player. It&rsquo;s rumored to be updated with a camera. The iPod Touch is one of the best selling music players out in the market, so why not get the updated version.</p>
<p>If you&rsquo;re not an Apple person, then Microsoft is releasing the Zune HD. It&rsquo;ll offer a touchscreen with a Tegra processor, and updated OS. Plus it looks good enough to compete against Apple&rsquo;s Touch.</p>
<p>The Zune HD will start out at $220 for the 16GB version, while the Apple iPod Touch will probably be in the $250 range for 16GB version.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Macbook Pro</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/apple-macbook-pro-meet-the-new-macb.png"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/apple-macbook-pro-meet-the-new-macb.png" /></a></p>
<p>Apple has lowered the price for their Macbook Pro line and also included the 13-inch in their Pro family. The 13-inch starts out at $1,199, while the 15-inch will run you around $1,699, and then the high end 17-inch, starts out at $2,499. All of the Macbook Pros are available with a student discount on Apple&rsquo;s Education Store.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Brita Ultramax Filter</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/brita.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/brita.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>If you&rsquo;ve ever lived in a dorm room, then you know you never want to drink the water on campus. Most kids end up getting bottled water but that adds up and not really green. To solve that problem, get a Brita filter, better yet, get a Brita Ultramax water dispenser. It&rsquo;ll give you 18 8 ounce glasses of water and has a electronic gauge that&rsquo;ll tell you when it&rsquo;s time to change the filter. The water dispenser will cost you $42. Split it with your roommate and you&rsquo;re looking at $21 for a convenient and healthy water solution.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Nikon Coolpix S1000PJ Projector Camera</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/nikon-s1000pj1-400x312.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/nikon-s1000pj1-400x312.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>Teens love taking pics of themselves and their friends and what better way to share them right away instead of waiting for them to be uploaded on Facebook, than on your dorm room wall. The Nikon projector camera solves that problem. It can make a 40-inch picture from six feet away, showing your friends all the stupid things you were doing while getting hammered last night. It&rsquo;s a fun and an expensive camera. But you pay more for the latest features and a projector on a camera is something. The cost of the Nikon projector camera is $429 and will be available soon, in September.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Nintendo DSi</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong><a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/ipod-touch-cases2-400x245.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/ipod-touch-cases2-400x245.jpg" /></a></strong></p>
<p>Nintendo&rsquo;s most popular handheld gaming console will definitely make the breaks between classes a little more fun. No one really studies in between classes right? So, why not pull out your DSi and continue your saved game until it&rsquo;s time to head into Econ 101. The handheld console will run you around $169.99 and is available now.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><strong>Shure Professional Headphones </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center">&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/shure-400x400.jpg"><img alt="" src="http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab281/abhivibhuti/XT%20Blog/shure-400x400.jpg" /></a></p>
<p>I&rsquo;m a big fan of headphones and when Shure, known for their ear phones, released three professional headsets, I wanted one. They&rsquo;re available in 3 different models. Prices for the professional headsets ranges from $59.99 for the entry level headset, $99 for the mid level headsets and $199.99 for the higher end model. They&rsquo;re definitely worth grabbing if you&rsquo;re going to cram for exams and papers. Might as well listen to your music comfortably.</p>
