T3 takes a look at Archos 604

post from Ubergizmo on 07 August 2006 11:58:55 PM. © Ubergizmo

T3 has gone one up on just about everyone else by snagging an Archos 604 portable media player. The 604 will replace the ageing AV500, packing in more features than its predecessor and yet appearing in a much slimmer dimension, thanks to the wonders of miniaturization and engineering. The user interface has been tweaked while a new control layout makes it much easier to go through your media. Although the screen's specifications are the same as the AV500, it somehow looks sharper and more glossy. A kickstand located behind is great whenever you want to catch a movie while seated at your desk without worrying about getting cramps in your hands. There is no word on pricing and availability at the moment.

The World Wide Developers Conference has seen Apple announce the new Xserve. This quad-Xeon, 64-bit server is powered by a pair of Dual Core Intel Xeon processors while running on Mac OS X Server Tiger, boasting performance figures that are 500% more than its predecessor. The Xserve is touted to be Apple's most customizable server yet with over a million possible build-to-order configurations. Xserves support 2.0, 2.6, or 3.0GHz Dual Core Intel Xeon processors and up to 32GB of 667MHz DDR2 DIMM RAM.

Koreans will be receiving the Hermione speaker sometime this month when Britz International releases it. This 2.1 channel speaker boasts a futuristic design, where the subwoofer unit looks somewhat akin to an Alien head that Predators hunt for breakfast. The underside of the subwoofer reveals the bass control knob, speaker out and line in ports, and the AC connector. There is no word on pricing and availability details currently, but it is most likely you will have to import one stateside.

It features a hard-shell case that seals off the water with a rubber gasket seal, although it was not designed to withstand the rigors of extended aquatic activities such as diving.
