Use ur mouse and keyboard for PS3 by using the new Eagle Eye Converter

The gamers need to be adequately armed when playing FPS games. So the Penguin’s latest offering namely the Eagle-Eye converter for the Sony PS3 gaming console does just that by transforming a regular USB HID keyboard and mouse into a weapon of choice, it allows the peripherals to be used as turbo-charged controller.

Not only but the users are offered key mapping features which allow all of the PS3’s controller buttons to be personalized. This should allow data to be seamlessly transferred to the mouse and keyboard. Gaming enthusiasts can look forward to precise movements when playing games like Killzone 3, BioShock and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. Penguin claims users will gain higher speeds in comparison to a regular controller thanks to the converter’s enhanced features.

Capable of accurately transmuting into a PC mouse, the converter shows a 1 to 1 translation from a PS3 controller to a mouse. The game option menu allows the users to change the sensitivity of the mouse as he likes . Due to the one to one translation straight from the PS3’s right analog stick to the movements of the mouse, gamers should get a better aim when playing FPS games.

“One of the drawbacks with playing first-person shooters is the lack of speed and accuracy offered by traditional controllers, We found a simple solution by bypassing the controller and transferring the button features directly to the computer keyboard and mouse. The Eagle-Eye offers an amazing alternative for fans of shooting games” mentioned Richard Huang, President of Penguin United.

Infused with USB 2.0 keyboard and mouse inputs, the right analog stick is capable of defaulting to movements. Users can connect the device to any console version of the PS3 using the 2 feet USB cable. The converter features a Turbo option for the square, triangle, circle, X, L1, L2, R1, R2 buttons. In addition to this, the device also reveals Programmable Macro Functions that can convert one key into a combination of moves.

The Eagle-Eye converter will mark its debut at the E3 that starts on June 15, 2010. The converter will carry a price tag of $59.99.

2011 Ford Mustang is it worth ur Bucks?


This car is something special. It’s a rare amalgam of real power, affordable price and driving excitement that hits you hard and makes you beg for more. To catch the eye the appearance package for the V6 model includes a billet grill, fogs, side stripe, rear decklid spoiler and 18-inch stainless painted aluminum wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zero rubber. The engine is the base-level all-new aluminum block 3.7L V6 that outs 305HP and 280 lb.-ft. of torque and 31MPG capable while cruising on the highway.
The interior is as retrotastic as the exterior sheet metal. A warm leather-wrapped three-spoke wheel draws you in and keeps you firmly grounded while the stick begs you to take advantage of it. The dual-gauge cluster with tall and monolithic numbering helps complete the time warp.Truth be told, the interior and exterior are simply an evolution of the previous design.
This series, thanks to the awesome new engine and transmission options, finally completes what Ford has been attempting since the 2005 throwback design was announced: a true-to-the original everyman’s sports car.The 305HP V6 mated to its optional six-speed transmission is more than capable of breaking the tires loose when thrown even into third. It has plenty of power to slam its occupants into the leather seats. The standard dual exhaust produces such a throaty rumble that unknowing gas station onlookers will look on with envy even though there’s only a V6 underneath the (somewhat deceptively large) hood.
This car is a bargain. The fun starts out at $22,995, which includes all the important hardware of the V6, six-speed manual transmission, four-wheel disc brakes, and stainless-steel dual exhaust. That’s a cheap mid-life crisis remedy right there.The Mustang has long been a comfortable daily driver. The advent of proper traction control a few years back even allows the Mustang to be cold weather capable. The new models don’t break that mold. The 2011 Mustang makes a fine cruiser, one that’s actually gentle on the gas with an EPA highway rating of 31MPG. (see my averages below) It’s just fine in the city, as well. The new six-speed transmission makes for a bit more wrist work, but it’s smooth enough.

Sony Vaio Laptops trying to become Affordable


Sony recently launched their new Sony Vaio E-series of laptops which not only look stunning but offer powerful hardware at competitive prices.There are three variants in the Sony’s E-series of laptops, with specific screen sizes of 14-inch, 15.5-inch and 17.3-inch. Let us see the hardware they offer. During a discussion session at the launch in Mumbai, Mr Masaru Tamagawa—Managing Director, Sony India, implied that their E-series of laptops are targeted towards the masses, because they are quite affordable.

14-inch
There are five in this segment, from which two feature Intel’s mainstream Core i5-520M processors and the other three have the entry-level Core i3 variants. The mainstream laptops are priced between Rs 50,000 to around Rs 60,000, which I think is a good price point, considering the style of the Vaio and the powerful hardware. And, the entry-level models are priced between Rs 39,000 and Rs 48,000. All laptops belonging to the new Vaio E series have a very different look and are available in a number of vibrant colors, which make the machines look truly stunning. The native screen resolution of all 14-inch models is 1366 x 768, which has been common to most standard laptops, and should be fine on a 14 incher.

15-inch
Now let’s first discuss the 15-inch models with respect to the different CPUs each model features. It’s really interesting to see a 15-inch Sony Vaio laptop priced at merely Rs 36,990. It’s perhaps because this one features an Intel Pentium CPU, nonetheless, I can’t wait to test this one first, only to see what it has to offer at this price. Then there are three models that feature the Core i3 CPUs and are priced between Rs 39,000 to about Rs 52,000. One of these machines (most expensive one), features a full-HD screen and the other two have the standard 1366 x 768 resolution. Amongst these three, you can choose for discrete (ATI Radeon HD5650 and HD5140) and onboard graphics. Surprisingly the most expensive 15-inch model features onboard graphics, which might not be appreciated by many people. In all, there are five 15-inch models you can choose from.

17-inch
There is only one 17-inch model which costs about Rs 58,000 and has entry-level hardware. Powered by an Intel Core i3-330M CPU, it features 4 GB RAM, a 500 GB hard drive and it weighs about 3.3 Kg. With decent discrete graphics, ATI Radeon HD 5650, and thankfully a 1600 x 900 screen, we think Sony Vaio is now going to make some new fans, and quite a few of them.
