| Canon EOS 40D 10.5Mp digital SLR
We've used a wide spectrum of digital SLRs, from entry-level models up to pro cameras. Once you have a taste of the capabilities of a professional camera, you can't easily go back to a digital SLR that's less full-featured; likewise, if you want to step up from an entry-level digital SLR, you have to get something with extra oomph. The Canon EOS 40D delivers outstanding image quality at a price that's in reach for photo enthusiasts and professionals alike. The Canon EOS 40D received a score of Superior in our image-quality tests. Images were well balanced, with good colour saturation and accuracy, under both flash and natural light. One of the Canon EOS 40D's advantages is that it has enough high-powered features to appeal to enthusiasts as well as to professionals seeking a second camera.

Xbox360 Game console: The N-Gen gaming console!
Gaming online is no less than an addiction for today's youth. Those who love it just don't care about the rest of the world. That is the reason why Microsoft has launched its second video gaming console by the name of Xbox360. It was developed in collaboration with IBM, ATI and SIS. The Xbox live allows players to play online and download games. A successor of the Xbox, the Xbox360 has already made its mark and is very popular among the video game lovers. It is giving a tough competition to Sony's Play station 3 and the Nintendo Wii. It was officially announced in 2005 and since then is gaining popularity. The Xbox 360 is available in three standard variants; the "Xbox 360 Arcade", the "Xbox 360", and the "Xbox 360 Elite". During its launch, the Xbox 360 was available in two configurations: the "Xbox 360" and the "Xbox 360 Core." The Elite package was launched later the "Xbox 360 Arcade" replaced the "Xbox 360 Core" in October 2007.
Golden Treasure Caps off Record Year
Cage can attest to that. National Treasure: Book of Secrets spent another weekend at number one, banking $35.6 million between Friday and Sunday—plus another $13.7 million on Christmas Day—to bring its two-week total to $124 million. The adventure flick also had the third-biggest Xmas showing ever, behind only Meet the Fockers ($19.5 million) and Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King ($14 million). Alvin and the Chipmunks and I Am Legend accounted for another $30 million and $27.5 million in receipts, respectively, leaving Smith's sci-fi tour de force just a few days shy of the $200 million mark. A resurgent Charlie Wilson's War remained in fourth place with $11.8 million, up 21.9 percent from last week, despite mixed reviews. But critics be darned—the film was nominated for five Golden Globes and perhaps people want to see for themselves what a lighthearted dramatization about what amounted to the U.S.
Mumbai, January 17
While most of his Bollywood associates called him a political turncoat, his newfound colleagues in politics, particularly those from his own party, dismissed him as a political novice. Some even considered him as an intruder straying into their preserved territory to spoil their fun. The badgered star belatedly got the hints from both sides. Finally, he chose his profession over politics, from which he started to distance himself slowly without making his retreat appear too obvious. IANS .
Don't Call It Plagiarism
Perhaps not since the air traffic controllers' strike of 1981 has the big press lavished such intense and generally sympathetic coverage on a labor dispute. Both the Washington Post ("it hasn't been easy for movie writers") and the New York Times ("my greed is fair and reasonable") have run op-eds by screenwriters demanding that the entertainment industry compensate Writers Guild of America members for digital use of their work on the Web, iPods, cell phones, etc., the sticking point of this strike. In the opinion pages of the Los Angeles Times, writer-producer Marshall Herskovitz lectures about how corporate domination of Hollywood inconveniences him, and a nonscreenwriter laments the powerlessness of today's scribes ("there is nothing without the writer"). .
