- Sony Ericsson Rachael teaser video plays with our hearts
The Motorola DROID might be at the forefront of the Android scene right now, but it looks like it’s going to have some high-end competition soon — Sony Ericsson’s been hyping the Rachael / XPERIA X3 launch on November 3, and today it’s put out this little teaser video. Nothing much here other than some fleeting glimpses of the handset in Luster White, but it’s looking quite sharp, and if the final specs are close to the DROID’s we could have a real battle on our hands — especially since SE’s crazy Android UI skin looks pretty sweet. Check the video after the break.

- Acer’s T230H: One of them there fancy touchscreen monitors that work with Windows 7
How keen are you on touchscreens? Keen enough to navigate Windows 7 while using such a monitor? Acer has a new one, the T230H, which will allow you to do exactly that. A big selling point is that it’ll increase your productivity, but I’m not so sure.
I mean, is it easier to use a touchscreen to navigate Excel, or flip about Firefox? You’ll still have a keyboard, I should think, so it’s not like the iPhone where you’re forced to get used to this radical, new interface; you have no other choice. Here, you’re split between touching the screen and typing away on a traditional keyboard.
But I’m still not the biggest fan of touchscreens yet, so my bias is palpable.
Anyhow, the specs:
• 16:9, 23-inch, 1920×1080 LCD.
• HDMI interface
• 2ms response time, which should placate the twitch gaming crowd
• 80,000:1 contrast ratio
And so on. Again, there’s got to be a market for these things, but I’m not so sure I’m a part of it.

- Microsoft Experimenting With 5 Multi-Touch Mouse Prototypes!
While Apple claimed the “World’s first multi-touch mouse” title with its Magic Mouse this month little did we know Microsoft was working on its own. Not one or two or three but Microsoft is testing five prototypes of multi-touch mouse.
Though I find such technology amusing I think multi-touch mouse is nothing more than a fad. It’s certainly a good start but it is far from being a complete product. Why, you ask?
The kind of gestures Magic Mouse or the prototypes we see in the video (below) are capable of handling are not the only gestures we will use in the time to come.
The fact that our fingers are capable of a lot more, gadgets like multi-touch mouse limits our ability to perform certain actions using our fingers. That’s precisely why multi-touch mouse will eventually fade away after killing our existing mouse technology.
Alright, let’s not get ahead of ourselves and instead use what technology has to offer today. I think Microsoft is onto something with the Orb Mouse that not only recognizes the finger placement and gestures but also reacts to the palms placements.
