TrustedReviews have looked at the Olympus mju 770 SW

It shrugs off the worst of the British climate. Rain, sleet, snow, hail and even cats and dogs are, as the saying goes, water off a duck’s back. So thanks Olympus. Because of you I’m now sitting here dripping onto my keyboard, because I’ve just been out taking sample shots with a camera
that makes Sir Ranulf Fiennes look like a stay-at-home wuss.

HotHardware.com posted a new article featuring OCZ's brand-new Flex XLC Water-Cooled CAS-3 DDR2-800 2GB hybrid memory kit.

With the release of their Flex XLC modules, OCZ is offering a product which is substantially more flexible than most other enthusiast class memory modules on the market. They can be air-cooled or water-cooled. They'll run at lower clock speeds with tight timings, or at high clock speeds with more relaxed timings. The Flex XLC modules are unique, efficient, and from what we've seen thus far, the pricing is in line with other high-end modules.

XSReviews has reviewed the Antec Earthwatts 500w and the Akasa Greenpower 500w

Unless you subscribe to the theory of a second ice age, you'll know that humans are slowly warming our planet up due to CO2 output. While computers -- probably -- play a small part in this global change, there is still an impact. Step in 80+ power supplies which promise above 80% efficiency throughout their output wattage range (20%, 50% and 100%). Today I have two such units, both rated @ 500w but from two different manufacturers.

techPowerUp posted a review on the Vizo Luxon Advanced 3.5 inch HDD enclosure

The Vizo Luxon Advanced HDD enclosure is a very versatile case which gives the user complete choice what type of internal and external connection is used. The rounded corners and nice black, blue or silver exterior make this a great addition to your desktop and the performance of both USB 2.0 and eSATA is good no matter what drive is used.

Viper Lair posted a review on the Cooler Master NotePal P1 Notebook Cooler

The product itself is a simple idea, and works for most laptops you find, from 14" widescreens to 17" models, though it many not cover the entire laptop or may cover too much of it. The other nice aspect about it is that it angles the keyboard up so that it seems to provide a more ergonomic feel.

TheTechLounge posted a review on the Microsoft Zune

After several weeks of daily use I've certainly formed more than one opinion about the Zune. Of course there are endless product reviews of the Zune available on the interweb, already... But with this review I'll try to not only cover the basic features and usability of Microsoft's little brown brick but my impression of the player as a whole, why and who should buy one, and if it lives up to its great white competitor.

XtremeComputing posted a review on the Abit IN9 32x MAX WIFi (Nvidia 680i) Mobo

The MicroSD and the adaptors come in one plastic shock proof case, it would not withstand a heavy crush but it is good enough to avoid damage if dropped, or in the microSD thought loss... (Editors note: lol them microSD cards are very small, I lost one when it pinged out of my phone, I am sure Samsung put a pump action spring in the slot)

Tweaknews.net posted a review on the XClio StablePower 850 Watt Power Supply

During my battery of tests, Xclio's Stablepower 850W PSU lived up to its name. They could also legitimately call it the “Silentpower,” as it performed its duties without a whisper of noise. (That name is already taken, but I couldn't help myself.) The Stablepower 850W has both stability and silence, as well as features like active PFC, 80% efficiency and a two-year warranty.
