Dedicated Suica/RFID/NFC reader, but what about the e-ink cards on the horizon?

The Relet seems kinda like a technology looking for an application, particularly given that the SmartDisplayer screen is already in a few credit cards in the wild.

I'd be amazed if SmartDisplayer wasn't also to turn up in RFID/NFC travel cards like Suica and Pasmo within a couple of years.

Otaku blogger builds DIY Steadicam for iPhone

One has to assume this was more about the challenge than the end result - nice work, though.

New Sony Cybershot is world's smallest waterproof digital camera

The DSC-TX5, due out in Japan in March for ¥40,000 ($400-ish), is just 17.7mm thick and waterproof to 3m.

Surely positioned for the summer holiday market.

Sadly, had to stop sales from my online store to Italy after repeated missing packages there :-(

Out of a dozen or so packages mailed to Italy in the last couple of months, all but one have been reported by customers as no-shows.

It's a shame, as I love the country, but WTF is with their postal service? Anyone shine any light on the situation?
