This Logitech Wireless Router is Not Wind-Powered
At first glance, this Logitech LAN-WH450N/GR wireless router looks like a mini wind mill. Thankfully, no. You do not have to put it outside and gather wind to keep your WiFi connection up and running. What appears to be blades on a wind turbine is actually a triple antenna design (or what they love to call “tri-tenna), enabling speeds of up to 450Mbps when using compatible devices. That is, if your country is not considering bandwidth capping. It also comes with a gigabit ethernet if you prefer a more wired connectivity.
The Logitech LAN-WH450N/GR wireless router is expected to be available on mid-April for 19,000 yen (about US$230).

GoPro Unveils 3D Hero Camera System
Like it or not, 3D video is the way of the future and GoPro decides to catch on with the 3D trend as it introduces its 3D Hero System. It is basically a mounting system that straps two of its 1080p HD Hero action cameras onto a special housing made from polycarbonate material. The system syncs the two cameras together and the images captured are turned into 3D video with the help of an included software in post-production. The GoPro 3D Hero System costs just US$99, and that is without the cameras. Aspiring 3D filmmakers would have to supply their own HD Hero cameras or buy them separately for $259 each.
