After catching wind of a recent Sony Insider report that the curious music maker was being canned in the US, we contacted Sony directly to sort things out. From Sony to you: "There is no truth to these reports at this time." 'Nuff said, yeah?

HDMI 1.4 brings internet sharing, dreadful tiers of quality
Okay, so there's good news and bad news. Given that we just love to tease, we'll start you off with the positives. HDMI 1.4 was just revealed, bringing with it an HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC) that enables data transfers of up to 100 Mbps between supported connected devices. Put simply, this could allow a "broadband-connected television using its HEC-enabled HDMI port to provide internet connection sharing with another HEC-enabled device such as a game console or DVR." Furthermore, the spec's Audio Return Channel (ARC) enables broadcast audio to be easily streamed back to an external amplifier, and the Automatic Content Enhancement (ACE) provides support for "future 3D video standards, increased resolution support (up to 4,096 x 2,160 pixels at up to 30Hz), and content recognition that promises to automatically optimize the TV's picture settings based on content type."

The D45SG is part of [linkout:www.intel.com/cd/products/services/emea/eng/motherboards/desktop/322096.htm Intel's Extreme Series] of desktop motherboards and that makes it rather interesting.

BenQ GP1 LED Portable Projector Review
Since arriving on the scene at the start of this year, tiny portable projectors seem to have exploded in popularity - now most of the major projector manufacturers seem to have a version on the market. The first one we saw was the Samsung SP-P400B and we were rather impressed by it but, a few months later, things have moved on and the latest arrivals can boast rather more features, as the new GP1 from BenQ amply demonstrates.
Starting with the external design, the GP1 is markedly smaller than the SP-P400B - with measurements of 136 x 54 x 120mm, it's at least 10mm less in every dimension. In addition, the GP1 weighs just 565g, though once you factor in the power adapter, video cable, remote, and carry case this rises to 1.3kg. These figures don't make the GP1 the smallest or lightest portable projector (that honour goes to the Acer K10 Pico Projector) but it is certainly up there.

Wild and slim PS3 redesign caught on camera?
Not that the original was any sort of tame, but some new, incredibly grainy leaked shots of a PS3 "slim," if they prove legitimate, point to a pretty wild redesign in store for the console in the near future -- not to mention what would be one of the smallest Blu-ray devices we've seen yet. There seem to be a lot of similarities to the Slimline PS2, while still holding onto that curvature the PS3 is so well known for, and even squeezing in a slot-loading disc drive and 120GB hard drive. Of course, Sony has issued a pretty strong denial of existing PS3 slim rumors, stating that "We currently don't have any plans for a redesigned PS3 at this time," but that's a pretty common way for Sony to deal with rumors, no matter which way they fall. We'll probably have to wait until E3 to learn the real truth, but it's a good bet this won't be the last true or false rumor to hit about a real or fake console in the run-up to the show. At least this one's packing pictures.
