Stuck with an ODD-less netbook or laptop, but can’t quite shake the urge to watch a Blu-ray Disc on your next flight? If you call Japan home (or you know a good importer), Buffalo has just the solution. The BP3D-PI6U2-BK measures 137- ? 147- ? 20mm, and the operation is pretty simple. Just wrangle an XP / Vista / Windows 7-equipped PC, locate an open USB socket, blow out the dust (optional, but highly recommended) and plug this guy in. Best of all, the unit also supports the boatload of 3D Blu-ray titles that are bound to show up over the coming months, but the privileged of being prepared doesn’t come cheap — it’ll land later this month for ?28,500 ($338). Update : Speaking of importers… White Rabbit Express has this up for pre-order at $350 , along with a slew of other Japanese wares. Huzzah!

Seems like Toshiba bit off more Blu-ray 3D than it could chew this year — the Japanese firm’s just announced that the new BDX3100KB will be its first set-top stereoscopic player, never mind the BDX3000 it announced at CES . Still, we’re willing to forgive and forget if the new machine (replete with DivX and MKV playback, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 surround, and instant playback of AVCHD footage from connected camcorders) makes it stateside sometime soon — both it and the relatively boring BDX1100 standard Blu-ray unit are presently slated for a UK release (at unspecified prices) in October of this year. PR after the break.

Our friends at Engadget en Espa?ol have turned us on to some pico projecters that recently popped up on Philips’ Flickr account. We don’t have too much info, other than they are designated (in no particular order): PPX-1430, PPX-1230 and PPX-1030. And they’re really rather small. Yeah, we’re underwhelmed too. But we must report even the least breathtaking gadgets: it’s our meat and potatoes, after all. And you can bet your bubby that if Philips does relate any mind-blowing information at this year’s IFA (which is going on as we write this), we’ll let you know. Oh, you want more pictures?

Just in case those George Takei commercials didn’t clue you in that Sharp was serious about Quattron, the company has announced four new TV lines at IFA sporting yellow as a fourth subpixel color. At the top of the list, the Quattron 3D-enabled LE925 line will be available in 60-inch or 46-inch sizes and feature Sharp’s proprietary high-speed FRED LCD signal processing technology along with side-mounted scanning LED backlighting — which like the LV Series — is touted to produce 1.8x better brightness than competing sets and reduce 3D crosstalk. Aquos Net+ connectivity is thrown in too, along with 2D-to-3D conversion, a digital triple tuner and 8GB of built-in flash memory for timeshift recording. Playing second fiddle to this overachiever are the 2D-only LE924E, LE824E and LE814E series, which will also feature Aquos Net+. Pricing details for all of the new lines are still unknown, but they’re slated to be available in Germany and Austria later this month. Here’s hoping Sulu gets his jaw checked out before then.

Looking to spoil yourself with a fancy new 3DTV ? Ain’t got the cash to go all-out ? Hello, compromise. Samsung’s 50-inch PN50C490 — which we peeked just a few weeks ago — is now shipping from Amazon, Best Buy and a slew of other local consumer electronic marts if we had to guess. As a refresher, this mid-sized HDTV has a 720p resolution, 2,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, no internet connectivity to speak of, a USB socket, three HDMI inputs, a pair of component jacks and support for the third dimension. It’s up for grabs today at just $989, but you’ll probably want to budget a few extra hundies for that Samsung 3D Starter Kit (not to mention a few 3D Blu-ray Discs). [Thanks, James] Samsung’s 50-inch 720p PN50C490 3D plasma on sale now for under a grand originally appeared on Engadget on Fri, 03 Sep 2010 00:56:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds .

Barco is a global leader in digital cinema technology.

The peak of the festival will be an unannounced 3D movie and it will be displayed using the DP2K-32B . This projector features 33000 ANSI lumens, a 2000:1 contrast ratio, and 2K HD (2048 x 1080) resolution. “When we were asked to serve as the Festival’s Digital Cinema Advisor, our first order of business was to procure projectors with strong performance, in particular for 3D, from a trusted source, so we naturally went with Barco.

It’s kind of hard to outdo yourself with only two dimensions when they read 21 and 9, respectively, so Philips has decided to do the only thing left for a trendy display maker: go 3D . Though we saw ( and loved ) a 3D prototype of the 56-inch variant at last year’s IFA, this new, 58-inch Cinema 21:9 Platinum HDTV looks set to bring the third dimension to actual retail. It’s got the Ambilight wall illumination that some people will like, LED backlighting with local dimming that most should love, and a slimmer, brushed matte bezel that will be appreciated by all. The 400Hz panel is capable of pumping out Full HD 3D and is expected to cost around €4,000 ($5,112) in Europe or ?3,500 in the UK with a launch set for later this month. And if you want one in the US, well… things aren’t looking very Ambibright for you.

There have been rumors for a while about Apple incorporating pico projectors into their latest products. Today, reports surfaced that Apple might be integrating Microvision ’s laser pico projector engines into their next generation of iPhones, iPods, and Macbooks. The report comes from Microvision who stated that they have received a 10% jump in shares. The laser projector would be ideal for Apple products because of their ability to never loose focus during projection. The only facts that might crush this report is the fact that in order to equip iPhones with pico projectors, Microvision will need a lot more than what they currently produce. Also it is uncertain if the company who supplies Microvsion’s green laser diodes will be able to handle that kind of supply and demand. [via Pico Projector Info ]

Despite what we’d heard before , Sony announced today at IFA that the firmware update bringing 3D Blu-ray playback to the PlayStation 3 will not arrive this month, instead pushed back to October which, we are told, is an entire 30 days away. until then we’ll have to live with the recent MotorStorm 3D game that recently popped up on PSN and a slightly-lower res version of Wipeout . Unfortunately, there still aren’t many movies to watch for the time being, and even the most ardent early adopters may want to wait until Sony rolls out the Michael Jackson’s This Is It - 3D Enhanced Edition and Alice in Wonderland 3D bundles it also announced. For the rest of us, we’ll probably still be firmly planted on the fence by the time the Green Hornet and Spiderman movies mentioned on stage come to disc.

Unfortunately Jeff can’t make it to the show today, but our good friend Kenley jumps into the hot seat to fill Wilson’s shoes while he pulls out his beautiful hair trying to play sound engineer for the day. Meanwhile, we’re making last minute predictions on what the Apple Music event will bring, so head over to CNET’s live blog for more details and in-depth post show coverage. The average e-mail user gets hundreds of message everyday, and while spam filters get rid of most of the junk, we’re still blasted with e-mails from work, mailing lists, Facebook, and more low-priority comments. Gmail recently rolled out a new solution to organize your messages called Priority Inbox . The Gmail feature automatically sorts your incoming e-mail into three sections: “important and unread,” “starred,” and “everything else,” and the idea is to target messages that aren’t outright spam but still aren’t important…Google cleverly calls this “bologne,” or BACN . The service also improves accuracy as you use it and will sort sort between senders you reply to and others that you just skip over, hopefully helping you sift through the piles of mail you get a day. We’ve seen plenty of strange Nintendo Wiimote accessories in the past, but the new detachable controller from a company called Mojowijo is by far the most NSFW. The device attaches to the Wii’s accessory port and uses Bluetooth to run wireless software that basically turns it into a partner-controlled “marital aid.” Its patent-pending “Motion2Vibration” technology transforms one user’s motions into vibrations signals that get sent to another selected device, even if they’re in another part of the country. Get it? Thanks again to everyone who entered our JetBlue All You Can Jet contest!
