]]> Comment on TOKYO EDGE - April’s coolest gadgets by Andy from HDMI Junction Boxes Store http://thetopblog.org/2008/04/tokyo-edge-aprils-coolest-gadgets/#comment-2934 Andy from HDMI Junction Boxes Store Wed, 18 Jun 2008 17:32:31 +0000 http://thetopblog.org/2008/04/tokyo-edge-aprils-coolest-gadgets/#comment-2934 I think the fragrance device sounds fantastic. I had this thought years ago when I was a kid, wondering if at some point in the future you would be able to transmit smells. By what I read, it looks like it maybe limited to a 'choice' of smells rather than transmitting 'any' fragrance. Still, very good though. It won't be long until scientists can transport people from one place to another. I wouldn't fancy being the first to try that one though! Andy I think the fragrance device sounds fantastic.

I have had nothing but trouble with ASUS crap for the past three motherboards, which were all ASUS. The capacitor quality claim doesn't surprise me either, as many of my problems were directly related to them. My current MB is Gigabyte (some disclosure here), and it has been completely stable and reliable. Don't get me wrong. The engineers for ASUS design some awesome boards, but when the executives, parts buyers, and "suits" in general get a hold of things, they replace the good and well designed specs with cheap crap that fails when used closer to their limits.

I get the feeling this is still going to be dramatically overpriced though but it is nice to see some diversity in the laptop department nowadays. Wow, I want a new laptop now.
