The CQ61Z is just another HP Compaq laptop that belongs to the Presario line. It was recently announced by HP and it can feature various processors, be it an AMD Sempron single core M100, or an ADM dual core CPU (M300, M320, and more).

ATI is responsible for the graphics department with its HD 4200, but I bet the 4GB of DDR3 memory will also be a good help. The display screen measures 15.6-inches, and the hard-drive space can go up to 500GB. The default model comes with a DVD burner but you can opt for a Blu-ray drive.

Other features of the HP Compaq Presario CQ61Zinclude a VGA output, HDMI as optional, and Windows 7 Home Premium as the OS.

It runs on stealth mode and is untraceable. After the software is set up on the phone, it silently records GPS locations at a rate decided by the owner of the phone. The entire text of all SMS text messages, along with the associated phone number, is also recorded. The Mobile Spy app is another software from Retina-X-Studios LLC and can be checked out here.

The Motorola DROID is undoubtedly one of Verizon’s hottest (if not the hottest) handsets as of late. However, it’s $200 price tag may put it just out of reach for some consumers.

Luckily, Sears has stepped in to give us the phone for $149.99 on a 2-year contract as opposed to Verizon’s price.

So, if you want the DROID, you may as well head over to your local Sears instead of your local Verizon store, right?

Want to remember the King of Pop every time you pull out your handset? Well then you should check out the ridiculously flashy limited edition Michael Jackson handset featured above.

We don’t have very many details as to what this phone is or the specs but we do know that it looks a little too much like one of Vertu’s handsets.

No idea if this will ever make it out of China but we have a hunch it won’t.

If you checked out Google today (statistics say you probably have) then you may have noticed that the company is doing something out of the norm.

Just what you say? Well check out the above image and you’ll notice that they are advertising the recently launched Motorola DROID right on the front page.

I’m sure Verizon will be reaping the benefits of this.

As a parent of three children, I suppose I would have loved to have the Cry Translator during my kids’ infant years. This Cry Translator iPhone app is somehow able to interpret a baby’s cry to determine whether he or she is hungry, sleepy, stressed, annoyed, or bored.

Apparently, this works because baby crying is essentially a universal language. Believe it or not, the makers of this app say it is 96 percent accurate. If you want to test that out for yourself, go to the website and spend $30 on it. If you purchase it by November 11th, you can get it for $9.99.

Miniature projectors are starting to catch on, and here is a new one from Tokyo-based company Princeton. It’s pretty clear from the name Toyjector that this one is targeted at the younger crowd, or that it is just small at 50mm cubed.

It can produce images at 300 x 224 resolution with 100:1 contrast ratio and 5 lumens brightness. That might not sound too good for you, and the sound is a mere 1 Watt. At least it has a Tripod, and is available in red and white. The price is about $150, and it can be purchased in Japan or the Japan Trend shop, as well as Geek Stuff 4 U.

According to Sungale’s press release, the Cyberus ID700WTA (aka Smart Info Engine) is “the first and only universal portable media device that offers access to real time internet information and applications by automatically linking wirelessly to user’s home routers”. This would not make the Smart Info engine neither an e-reader nor a PMP, but some sort of mix of the two.

It has a 7 inch LCD color screen, and online access to news, weather, stocks, maps, as well as Gmail, YouTube, IP Radio, and Picassa. It is also an e-book reader, photo displayer, card reader, and, of course, much, much more. The Sungale Smart Info Engine is available now at major retailers and Amazon for about $279.

Photo frames with wireless web connectivity are starting to become a standard in the industry, and it should be no surprise that the Touchscreen Connected Frame from eStarling has 802.11n. I suppose what makes this unique is that it supports the photo apps from Facebook, Picasa, or Flickr, and it is even a “built-in Twitter client”. It also has a video inbox for receiving videos shot on smart phones or other internet connected devices, and a Gmail address so your friends and family can send photos directly to the frame.

The display is 10.2 inches, and it has 2GB of RAM with an SD card slot. Despite its touchscreen capability, there is no way to surf the web. There is also no calendar, but there is a weather function. The cost is about $249.99.

I am amazed at all the new uses for augmented reality, especially those that make their appearances on iPhone apps such as Layar. There is now another augreal app with the Car Finder. (By the way, augreal is just an abbreviation that I just made up for Augmented Reality. I’m hoping it will catch on.)

Car Finder relies on an iPhone 3GS camera and digital compass in order to “overlay the direction of your car and how far away it is”. So now you have a way of remembering where you park. It is available at the App Store for about $0.99.

Android is seriously sweeping the nation, and so it is no surprise that MOTO is looking to put it in their new MID. This device, known as the AMP (Android Media Platform) comes in three forms:

The first is a 5-inch version that will be equipped with a front-facing 8 Megapixel camera, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, multi-touch display, TI OMAP3430 processor, plus 256MB worth of flash with SD card reader. The 10.4 inch version also has the 8 Megapixel camera, multi-touch capacity, and it also has GPS and a 3 Megapixel camera on the back. Believe it or not, there is also plans for a 30 inch version.

All three of these should be out “by early 2010″, but there is no word so far on the price.
