OzHub, the Macquarie Telecom-led cloud computing alliance, has come down firmly on the side of Optus over the copyright controversy surrounding Optus TV Now, warning that any moves to change the law "risk branding Australia a global luddite state."
Sony Australia today unveiled the VGN-AR18GP (AR18), in the Australian launch of the world’s first Blu-ray Disc notebook computer. The AR18 enables users to edit and burn HD footage on a personal computer in native 1080 resolution. However, users will have to pay big money for the privilege.
Playback of HD content through a larger display is also possible with
the HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) output on board the
AR18, Sony’s first notebook to offer this connectivity option. The
product includes optical links for sound that complements the vision.
As a ‘Full HD’ product from Sony, the AR18 can input, output and
display content in 1080 resolution. The notebook has a 17” WUXGA (1920
x 1200) widescreen display and uses Sony’s Clear Bright, High Colour
LCD Technology.
“A true innovation, the VAIO AR18 enables its user to create, edit and
record HD content on a notebook PC – straight out of its box,” said
Hiro Ishikawa, Product Manager for VAIO, Sony Australia. “Offering
consumers limitless creative possibilities, we’ve presented a notebook
that truly reflects the potential of a high definition world.”
Available in Australia this month, users will have to come up with
A$5,499 for the AR18, which comes with a 17” Wide WUXGA Clear Bright
High Colour LCD, 160GB hard disk (80GB x 2 in RAID 0), Intel Core Duo
T2600 2.16GHz and Blu-ray Disc read/write drive.
