Auzentech recently announced that they will begin shipping the X-Fi Home Theater HD at the end of July for consumers.

The X-Fi Home Theater HD is the result of cooperation between several companies that include Auzentech, Creative Labs, Cyberlink, and Silicon Image.

The Auzen X-Fi HomeTheater HD has been designed around the latest Creative PCI Express X-Fi audio processor. For home theater enthusiasts, the processor includes HDMI 1.3 support and features Dolby Digital and DTS encoding for a single-cable connection to home theater systems. For gamers, the card leverages the power of the PCI Express-optimized X-Fi processor to deliver accelerated audio for improved game performance, with ultra-realistic EAX 5.0 effects and 3D positional audio.

Enjoy Blu-ray in its full glory! The Auzen X-Fi™ HomeTheater HD is the first and only industry-supported native-PCI Express soundcard offering uncompressed audio supporting 24p True Cinema output. By delivering crystal-clear all-digital audio and video via a single HDMI connection, the Auzen X-Fi™ HomeTheater HD dramatically simplifies cabling and provides the highest-quality home theater experience. In compliance with HDCP and AACS, the Auzen X-Fi™ HomeTheater HD can play Blu-ray Audio with no downsampling, and play High bit-rate Audio such as Dolby® TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio bitstream without altering the original sound.

“We are excited to officially announce shipment dates of the X-Fi™ HomeTheater HD sound card," said Stephane Bae, president of Auzentech, Inc. "We appreciate the patience of all our customers, distributors, and dealers who have waited anxiously for this sound card."

It looks like HTPC enthusiasts who want the best sound quality possible will have at least one option soon. There was no word in the press release about pricing but hopefully it’ll be low enough to make it a worthy addition to your HTPC.

LG Renoir Vs. LG Arena

LG KM900 Arena Vs. LG KC910 Renoir

Both the LG Arena and LG Renoir can impress the mobile user with their wide array of power walloped features. Let’s compare the features on offer for the users of these functional touch screen mobile phones.

LG Arena or LG Renoir

Hardware

The black coloured LG Renoir is slightly larger and bulkier than the LG Arena. While the vital statistics of the LG KC910 Renoir is 107.8 x 55.9 x 14 mm, the silver casing of the LG KM900 Arena measures 105.9 x 55.3 x 12 mm. The LG Renoir weighs 9 grams more than the LG Arena (105grams). The touch screens of both phones span 3inches on the face of the phone.

Software

The Capacitive touch screen technology utilized by the LG KM900 Arena provides superior tactile responsiveness than the resistive touch screen technology used by the LG KC910 Renoir. The LG Arena uses an exciting new 3D interface. The LG Renoir on the other hand uses a traditional interface with a touch sensitive widget bar to gain access to applications. Its physical keys allow application access too.

LG Arena

Memory and Battery Life

The LG Renoir has only 100 MB internal memory which can be expanded by 16GB using a Micro SD memory card slot. The LG Arena boasts of a dollop of 8GB internal memory which can be extended by 16GB using the Micro SD slot. Both phones harness the powers of 1000mAh Li-ion batteries. The LG Arena claims a stand by of 300 hours in comparison to the 264 hours proffered by the LG Renoir. The LG Arena supplies a talk time of 3 hours 50 minutes in contrast to the 3 hour talk time of the LG Renoir.

Multimedia Features

The LG KC910’s mind blowing 8 Mega pixel camera is endowed with manual/auto focus, xenon flash for bright photography, geotagging, face, and smile and blink detection, touch focus and image stabilization. The LG KM900, not being sold as a camera phone, has still managed to pack a 5 Mega pixel camera into its light frame. Enabled with auto focus the camera meets its purpose.

The Renoir and the Arena both have video recording abilities and a secondary video call camera. Both phones are endowed with video players that are compatible with Xvid, DivX, MPEG4, MP3 and AAC video formats. The TV out connectivity has been transfused in both smart phones so that you can stream videos on a TV.

The music player on board both the phones is supported ably by Dolby mobile technology. Blue tooth connectivity is a welcome bonus offered by both phones.

The FM radio attribute is imbued in both handsets, but the LG Arena steps ahead of the LG Renoir by supplying the FM transmitter facet to you so that you can share tunes on any radio.

LG Renoir

The gamers’ tastes are not ignored by either the LG Renoir or the LG Arena; both feature gaming facility. A wide range of internet browsing technologies like WAP, HTML and xHTML allow you to download games and other files from the internet as well. Wi Fi and HSDPA enhance internet browsing and downloading speeds.

The LG Renoir and the LG Arena are equally great choices if you are searching for a functional entertainment smart phone.

All Your Cell Phones Conencted With The XLink Bluetooth Cellular Gateway

This is something I didn't know even existed until I was already agreeing to review it. The idea is that you set it up to connect all your cell phones to it when you come in and then you just have one central phone in the house to make and receive all your calls. I really is a little more elegant than it sounds at first.

Why would you want this?
I'll be honest... At first, it sounded cool. Then it sounded really unnecessary. After trying it out, I landed on a middle ground somewhere between pretty cool and unnecessary. So why would you want one? Anyone could have their own reasons for wanting to consolidate phone calls into a home phone. For me, it would be to have all my wife and my mutual friends be able to reach either of us via either number. It's also useful if you want to drop your cell phone on the charger and use a set of wireless home phones while your cell charges. Maybe you have a home business with several cell phones on a group plan. You could set this up to answer any of the lines from one centralized system.

How does i set up and use it?
First, I need to clarify something I wasn't initially sure about. This doesn't need an existing home phone. Actually, it doesn't really support one, either. The model I tested is the ITC-BT. For about ten bucks more, they offer the ITC-BTTN model. The core (and perhaps only) difference is that the BTTN includes an extra RJ45 connection for connecting it to an existing home phone line.

Although the instructions were all crammed onto one sheet and in multiple languages, they were pretty complete. You plug in the gateway to the wall and you connect it to a home phone via a standard RJ45 phone cable. I just used an old phone I had sitting around in my office for satellite call testing. Once it's all connected and turned on, you connect the phones to it. Make sure your bluetooth is enabled on all your cell phones and you're ready to connect. Note that you don't have to connect them at the same time if the other cell phone's owner happens to get home way later, for example. The buttons on the top of the gateway are for the three cell phone lines you can connect to it. To connect a cell phone, all I had to do was hold down one of these buttons to ready the line for pairing. Then I went into my phone's bluetooth settings and found the gateway and paired it. I then did that for a second cell phone and used the third to test. Once the cell phones are all paired, it can be hung on the wall or set on a desk or counter top.

Using it is pretty simple. Inbound calls are answered just like you'd expect to answer a home phone. The phone rings and you pick it up. Simple, right? Making calls is almost as easy. To make a call, I just had to pick up the home phone and dial. It automatically connects to the cell phone paired with the first spot on the gateway. You can "flash" over to the next line in the order to use it instead. When you move the cell phone out of range of the gateway, it unpairs from the gateway and will re-pair when it is in range again. So in theory, you could leave it set up all the time near your phone chargers and just plug your cell into the charger when you get home.

From what I understand from the documentation, you can also set it up to pass on caller ID information if your base phone has a digital display and wasn't made in the 80's like my test phone. The one thing I would miss greatly with a system like this always in place is my contact list. If you have a newer home phone system, however, some have contact list functionality that would resolve this problem.

Conclusions
For around $89, it's not going to break the bank. I don't have a lot to compare pricing on, but that seems decent. The real question is of need. If the functionality the XLink provides is worth the price tag, it's a worthwhile device. The setup and use is about as easy as you could expect for it. It doesn't feel very sturdy, but it's meant to be sitting in one spot the whole time, so that shouldn't matter. If I had the need, I'd buy one.
