It Is Official! Stuart Price Produces New Killers Album
The rumor that Stuart Price will be producing The Killers' third album was finally confirmed by Brandon Flowers in an interview with British music mag NME this week. The collaboration between Madonna's favorite DJ/producer and the Las Vegas foursome has been the subject of speculation ever since Price hinted about a potential partnership when he appeared on Pete Tong's BBC radio show late 2007.
Samsung SGH-i780
Samsung's mobile phones have traditionally been targeted at the mid- to high-end market. So when we found out that the new SGH-i780 will be priced at S$828, we were pleasantly surprised.
Casio Exilim EX-Z100
We first saw the Casio Exilim EX-Z100 at CES 2008. Even alongside the staggering EX-F1, the assortment of new Exilim cameras seemed on first impression to build on Casio's recent high caliber of compacts. The super-skinny EX-S10 bore that out, and we put the EX-Z100 through its paces to see if this would be another success for Casio.
Italian pride: Alfa Romeo Spider
First produced in 1966 and widely regarded as a design classic, the new Alfa Romeo Spider continues to be a head turner, as Linus Leow finds out.
