Veho's Muvi Claims to Be World's Smallest Camcorder -- It Isn't
Looking for the world's smallest camcorder? Despite company claims, the Veho Muvi isn't it. That said, the Muvi is inexpensive and small enough to clip onto your shirt or goggle strap so that you can capture your most extreme moments.

Samsung Gets Sharp LCDs Banned
If you're a Sharp LCD TV fanboy or fangirl, we've got some bad news. Due to patent disputes, Samsung has just managed to get a ruling from the U.S. International Trade Commission banning the import of Sharp LCDs into the U.S.
