Omron announces DR-LED technology
Omron started to ship new LEDs, made using the proprietary DR-LED (Double Reflection Light Emitting Diode). According to the company, DR-LED provides to double brightness comparing to the traditional LEDs.
The idea of DR-LED is in using semispherical focusing mirror (resembling a satellite antenna). I.e. the mirror reflects the light, doubling the LED brightness).
Omron has already started to ship its new DR-LEDs, including red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise and blue versions. In January the company promises to release more powerful 2MDR DR-LED (blue, yellow and turquoise). More details about the DR-LEDs are here.

EPoX Bluetooth parallel port printer adapter
Bluetooth-enabled printers are still the rare fish in the market. But it seems, that EPoX is to fill the gap by releasing EPoX Bluetooth Parallel Port Printer Adapter for mounting on the LPT port.
Miniature EPoX Bluetooth Printer Adapter is capable to support up to 10m (or 30m in the line of sight) operation. It’s a Plug-and-Play device for Windows-based systems. This is all about the novelty for now.

Nanya, Mosel Vitelic: more DDR400!
According to Chinese United Daily News, Taiwanese Nanya Technology and Mosel Vitelic plan to increase the Springdale DDR400 chipset production volumes up to 50% by March, i.e. by the moment Intel announces new chipsets.
Nanya will produce DDR400 chips on the new 0.14-micron 300-mm fab, being jointly constructed with Infineon Technologies.
Mosel Vitelic, the first Taiwanese DRAM maker to launch the 0.14-micron DDR400 chip production (licensed from Infineon), plans to launch two new 0.12-micron production lines.
