In fact, this screen saver was co-created by Malibu boat owner, Nick Murto. Murto is the owner of a 2008 Wakesetter VLX and co-owner of the internet marketing firm Seven2. One of Murto’s many passions is photography. Seeing the images that populate the Malibu Boats family of web sites, Murto realized shots like these would be perfect in an auto-update screen saver format. He set up the program and Malibu began loading the first wave of images. The rest is screen saver history.

The Malibu Boats Screen Saver is available in PC or MAC formats and is downloadable for free. When Malibu adds new photos to the screen saver those updates are downloaded to client screen savers automatically, as long as an internet connection is active.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 26, 2008

Coaches told us what they wanted, and we listened: A barebones endzone unit that is heavyduty but lightweight, durable enough for everyday use, but able to withstand the punishment of travel & weather. We included this as well as introduced the latest technological advances.

We took the best of the X2 and the X3, strengthened the collars, improved the quality of the travel case, introduced “Live on Location” Laptop capture, & included the myhipod.com site for coaches to fundraise with video footage.

We have committed to the X4 by making it the core of our future. The X4 design will be the core for future innovation at HI-POD. The accessory kits for the X4- “Robotic Head” basketball gymcam, & the Line-of-Scrimmage Cam will be addons to the present X4 unit. This eliminates the possibility of your HI-POD Endzone unit from becoming obsolete.

This adaptability means that the HI-POD CORE X4 will work for all outdoor sports (like football, soccer, lacrosse, baseball), but now with the addition of the robotic gymcam, customers will be able to use indoors for Basketball, Volleyball and Wrestling. Photographers will even be able to control the HI-POD from the stands.

The versatility does not stop there. With the addition of the laptop plate, the HI-POD CORE X4 provides three different ways for the user to capture footage of a sporting event: Capture in the tape of the camera, capture in the game recorder or capture “LIVE” via firewire into laptops. Each method has its advantages, but the HI-POD CORE X4 provides users with the flexibility of choosing which is best from them.

Another cost saving measure that HI-POD has reintroduced with the CORE X4 is the ability to use Cameras with LANC or without. LANC is the standard lens control protocol that has been used for years.(This wired controller allows the user to be distant from the camera and still have total control of the camera) But this method requires the user to purchase a more expensive Sony Camera. (Sony recently decided that LANC was a premium item and therefore all cameras with LANC would be much more expensive). The Canon ZR series is the alternative that HI-POD has packaged with the CORE X4. By wiring the wireless remote, the HI-POD user is able to have total remote control of the Canon camera without the expensive LANC protocol that was necessary in the past. But the HI-POD cabling is flexible enough to also accommodate the use of SONY Lanc cameras. So if the HI-POD user wants to switch cameras, he will be able to do so. Just another cost saving innovation from HI-POD.

Once again HI-POD reintroduces affordable packages for teams or schools to acquire the HI-POD. Purchase, or Finance the HI-POD over 2, 3 or even 5 years. Customers can now even rent the Core X4 for even 0month. Stop into the new HI-POD RENTAL OFFICE to pick up a rental unit today.

Sony lx900 review

2010 is an important milestone year for television manufacturers. It’s not only the transition to Led backlighting, which Samsung started last year, but also the introduction of 3D. The next important step in television. At CES 2010 last January, 3D displays were unwrapped and shown to the public for the very first time. Sony, Samsung, LG and Panasonic showed their 3D colors and Sony was kind enough to offer me the opportunity to experience it in person. This is my 3D preview of the Sony LX900 series.

To experience 3D for myself I was welcomed to the Sony headquarters in the Netherlands, which is where I live. In the morning I checked the Sony e-mail for directions to the building. It was a 2-hour train drive followed by a couple of miles in the bus, at least according to the directions. I made it to the train station, stepped into the train, and found the classical public transportation horrors. It was really crowded, dirty and the people next to me were as awkward as can be. Really, trust me.

It was nothing compared to the bus though because well there wasn’t a bus in sight. With just 20 minutes to go until my appointment at the Sony building, I got anxious. Luckily a bus came and I asked the man behind the steering wheel if it stopped near Badhoevedorp. He nodded and I stepped in nervously. I had no clue when to step out, but I was saved by the huge Sony sign as the bus neared the building. It stopped just a few meters after and like a miracle I made it in time.

So what does the Sony headquarters looks like? Well it’s gorgeous. The building looks modern and huge. And it only got better inside. Upon entering I saw a huge backlit Sony sign with their slogan: make.believe. The reception was the first thing I saw and two ladies behind the desk warmly welcomed me. They walked me, a little further into the building, to a bar with coffee, tea and some small luxurious snacks. It was perfect.

Another girl said that a short video was ready downstairs and that I was welcome to see the showroom or eat some snacks while they waited for the others. I did both and walked downstairs to find a new definition of home theatre. Towards the darkened room I found movie posters of films produced by Sony pictures including rainy with a chance of meatballs. Once seated a short presentation ran about Sony’s vision for 3D. It included a short explanation of the magic of the glasses and how Sony was involved in every chain of the production. It also showed a kid on a couch dropping popcorn as he was consumed by the supposedly beautiful 3D image. It was kind of weird but funny to see.

Next stop was the showroom. Here I and a few other groups gathered in front of the Sony LX900 television. This is the highest end version. A nice man stood before the television and explained about the remainder of the tour. He said that Sony had prepared a few short 3D videos. He turned on the glasses and handed it out to everyone. It was a nice touch because he could’ve just said, “take the glasses.” It showed real appreciation of the interest.

And sure enough the demo began. First it showed a football match (or soccer!) that was converted to 3D real time. It was pretty impressive. A player ran towards the camera and he popped out a bit. All in all the conversion is a nice touch but it’s seems to use 3 or 4 layers of depth. Not true 3D so to say. But the next video was.

I was shown a 3D video about fishes, polar beers and other animals that swam in the sea. It was kind of magical to see the difference between objects in the back and in the front. It was all so sharp and the colors remained completely intact, but slightly darker. A shark of some sort, friendly looking one, swam by the camera and I almost looked to my side to see it swim by. It wasn’t there obviously.

Games were also shown and it was somewhat impressive. Not all games worked great. LittleBigPlanet for example barely benefitted from 3D. Killzone on the other hand was impressive to say the least. A nice touch was that Sony also made the XMB in 3d. It just showed the water thingy (What is it called?) floating in the back and the icons in the front. It wasn’t mind blowing but I like to think that it could be. Obviously it’s still work in progress.

The nice man wrapped up the presentation and invited me to look around in the showroom. He also handed out the expected prices of the models, the Sony LX900 60″ will sell for a whopping €4000,-. During my time in the showroom I had some time to further inspect the glasses. They were very light and comfortable. On the side it said Sony and it made me smile because I like the brand. The battery goes for 100 hours and are easily replaceable, and cheap. Sony said that they hadn’t made it rechargeable because it’d make the glasses much heavier. Although I liked the glasses I could noticing some sloppy build quality aspects. The on /off button is present on both sides (operating both glasses I assume) but the switch on the left side couldn’t go off. And the glasses don’t give any indication of being on/off or out of power. One pair of glasses even stopped working, I assume the battery ran out.

The showroom showed all Sony products and it made me want to stick around a little longer. I had a good look at everything and realized that Sony really makes a lot of products. I left the showroom, drank a coffee and headed for the exit. The nice lady at the reception handed me a goody bag to go. It included a Blu-Ray movie of Michael Jackson: This is it. And the basic things like a pen and a book.

Overall it was a really nice experience and 3D is really impressive. The image stayed sharp, the colors intact and all that while the objects came really close to my head, or so it seemed. I couldn’t help noticing though that the diagonal becomes more important than ever. 3D is most impressive when you can’t or barely can see the borders of the screen. I sat really close to a LX900 40″ in the showroom and the 3D was more impressive than the 52″ at way more distance. And it’s a shame that the 3d televisions won’t come out until late June or July. That’s after the world cup football… which Sony wants to partly broadcast in 3D.

Question by Poshini: Who gave ITP VoIP fraud company such good reviews?
Don’t bother with ITP VoIP, its one step away from FRAUD. They have not listed a physical address and their business hours are unknown as of March 25th 2009. Although ITP VoIP states the order will take 1-3 days to process and no longer than 7 days to receive your equipment, your order will not get processed until a telephone number is assigned for you. If you cancel your order because you cannot wait any longer for ITP VoIP to assign you a telephone number, then be ready to have severe headaches. Even though you haven’t received any equipment, service, and your account has NOT been activated they will SCAM you $ 29.95 activation fee.

No one goes out of their way to write a bad review, however do NOT believe those good reviews on other websites because most likely ITP VoIP employees wrote them. The only reason I ordered their Plan is because of those good reviews that I read on those website and now I am going out of my way to enlighten the public about ITP VoIP.

OMG, This is so surreal, I went through the same thing with ITP couple of days ago. Unfortunately if I would have read this it would have saved me from the ITP VoIP scam.
