We’ve talked about GiSTEQ here before and their “Trackr”s. Well there’s a new one; specially for your Nikon DSLR camera. It is already out and it only costs $180.

The biggest difference from the older GP-1 is that PhotoTrackr does not rely on the hot shoe for power, but uses a rechargeable battery and attaches to the 10-pin connector. So you’re still free to use the hot shoe for a flash. Another advantage is that GiSTEQ’s PhotoTrackr can track 44 satellites at once to get you a position fix. There’s actually a pretty good comparison here.

What you do is connect GPS adapter to the camera and then your Nikon DSLR will receive GPS data from the GPS receiver and embed GPS info into the photo’s EXIF data. This data is transferred wirelessly to the camera via the Bluetooth connection…via

While there are many different types of eBook readers out there to choose from these days, there is still lot to consider when choosing one to suit your individual needs.  The kind of eBook readers with full on LCD displays are capable of displaying much more vivid and lively colors allowing you to do many of the same functions that you would be able to do with a small computer or tablet PC.  Those can get a little strenuous on the eyes though after long periods of reading and that is where the e-ink readers come out on top.  Problem with the e-ink though is that the refresh rate is very slow and incapable for using for something gaming.  With this new Acer Lumiread eBook Reader though, the reader will come bundled with Opera browsing software which will let you check e-mails and surf your favorite websites in a pinch. Hopefully this will help to bring together the best of both worlds and inspire other manufacturers to do the same. [UberGizmo]
