Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Verbatim Corporation, a subsidiary of Mitsubishi Kagaku Media, has announced what the company claims is the world's first mini Blu-ray recordable and rewriteable (BD-R/RE) media aimed at the camcorder market.
According to Verbatim, measuring three inches
(8cm) in diameter, the new 7.5GB discs provide approximately one hour
of continuous video capture time on a single side when high definition
(1920 x 1080i) is used, and approximately two hours of video capture
time with images recorded at 1440 x 1080i.
Verbatim Mini BD media will be available in August in Japan, where the
new Hitachi BD-compatible camcorder will be launched. Verbatim will
begin shipments to other parts of the world, including Australia and
New Zealand, when the new BD-compatible camcorders become available
locally.
According to Verbatim, Mini BD media combine with a BD-compatible
camcorder to provide consumers with convenient features that hard disk
camcorders cannot offer. With the ability to record directly to a Mini
BD disc, users can eliminate the time-consuming process of downloading
captured video to their computer hard drive.
Users of the new mini Blu-ray discs can also enjoy unlimited capacity
by simply removing the disc from the camcorder and adding a new one,
Verbatim says.
