WiPC Micro PC

WiPC, created by BlueRadios, Inc., is a wireless mobile broadband device that supplies access to Internet-based information and entertainment content as well as voice, data, and video communications. It incorporates a high-resolution color liquid crystal micro display, superior magnifying optics, and video technologies to create a virtual 15 inch image equal to a standard notebook display. WiPC systems provide a full PC color image perfect for viewing standard web pages and HD media.

“The beauty of this device is the quality of the micro display and that we reduced a 5 lb. laptop down to 3oz. so it fits in the palm of your hand,” says Mark Kramer President and CEO of BlueRadios, Inc. He adds, “Our product changes the way high quality mobile media content is viewed and accessed.” BlueRadios plans to offer cellular handset capabilities in future product releases allowing WiPC users to connect their lives with the world on-the-go”. The product is available to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and large consumer electronics distributors with advanced operating systems such as Windows, Android or Linux. Product includes support for WiFi, Bluetooth 3.5G, and GPS.

JBL’s original Radial is one of our favorite iPod speaker systems, thanks to impressive audio quality - among the best of any desktop system for the iPod - and an attractive design. However, this is particularly expensive so to attract more buyers, JBL shrank the Radial down, and called the less-expensive result Radial Micro.

Now, JBL is releasing its latest for the Radial, the JBL Radial Micro 8. The Radial Micro 8 basically still has the same eye-catching design - a circular shape surrounding a Universal iPod dock. The Radial Micro 8 includes a 1/8-inch stereo-input minijack for listening to an audio source other than a dockable iPod (cable included), as well as a USB-B port for connecting the system to your computer to sync your iPod with iTunes (cable not included).

At $150, the Radial Micro 8 isn’t the least expensive desktop/compact speaker system, but it’s an attractive option - figuratively and literally - given its good sound quality and standout design.
