This is directed at those of you that have high speed internet access, if you are one of the three people in the country that are still using dial-up you need to pass on this item!
How about unlimited US & Canada phone calls for 20 bucks a year? You can also choose a number for just about any area code and even choose a prefix. Want voicemail – no problem. Call forwarding – of course.
So what is the deal? It is called magicJack. A snazzy device that plugs into the USB port on your PC, then you plug any regular telephone into the phone jack on the unit.. Setup takes a couple of minutes. Once you have chosen an area code and prefix you are assigned a number and you are ready to dial as well as receive calls. Here’s the kicker – it costs less than 40 bucks and that includes the first year of free US/Canada landline and cellular calls. Subsequent years are just $20 per year. There’s even great rates on pre-paid international calls.
But wait – there is more! You can take the magicJack when you travel and plug it into any PC or Mac and make and receive calls as if you were at home. Even if you travel overseas you can still connect and North American calls do not cost a penny more. It is worth getting a unit just for that purpose alone!

The review is positive, covers set-up, using the software, monitoring the production job and notable product features. Reviewer Chris Randall.
As our business has grown, the need for larger duplication orders from our corporate clients has increased. I wasn’t happy with the performance and print quality we were getting from our older disc-printing solution and was looking for a higher-end solution. That is why I was happy to receive the Epson PP-100 Discproducer for review.

Epson Duplicator Discproducer PP-100 makes disc duplication and printing easier than ever. It can print directly onto CDs and DVDs using our 6 colour printing technology achieving stunning photo-quality images on standard and glossy media. It’s clever enough to be left unattended whilst handling up to 100 copies in a single batch. And with the reliability and affordability you’d expect from Epson, the PP-100 allows you to achieve the best results time after time after time. [more...]

XEROX-BRANDED STANDALONE TOWER DUPLICATORS
The Result of an Exclusive Licensing Agreement with Xerox, the DVD/CD & Blu-ray Duplicators Feature the Industry’s First “Drag and Drop” Function
LOS ANGELES, CALIF. – March 31, 2008 – Vinpower Digital Inc., manufacturer and worldwide supplier of advanced digital duplication equipment, announced today that it has entered into an exclusive trademark licensing agreement with Xerox Corporation (NYSE: XRX) to develop, market and support a new line of Xerox-branded duplicators.
Available from Octave, the Xerox Blu-ray, CD-DVD Duplicators are manual tower disc duplicators that range from one to 15 writer drives, each of which operates independently of a PC, providing businesses a quick and inexpensive way to make multiple copies of CDs and DVDs. In an industry first, each of the new models allow users to transfer image files directly from a PC to the duplicator’s internal hard drive, saving users the time and effort usually required to produce a master disc for each project.
Several models in the line also provide users with an industry-leading 256MB buffer memory for more stable and reliable high-speed duplication with a greatly reduced occurrence of buffer under-run errors.
“Vinpower Digital is proud to associate with Xerox, a company whose name is synonymous with innovation, to offer businesses and organizations of all sizes the most reliable and efficient duplicators on the market,” said Calvin Chang, CEO, Vinpower Digital. “Our proven technology and distribution track record, combined with the Xerox brand and the enhanced functionality of these duplicators, make us very confident this line will set a new standard for this category of product.”
“Vinpower Digital is a leader in the duplicator market and shares Xerox’s commitment to innovation, quality and reliability,” said Chris AuClair, Brand Identity Manager at Xerox. “This relationship extends the Xerox brand into a new product category, giving our customers even greater technology choices.”

Octave is pleased to offer our first thumb drive USB Duplicator! More and more content is being put onto solid state media.
Nexcopy manufacturers the largest PC based duplicator system with 20 port duplication capability. One unique feature of the Nexcopy USB200PC is the ability to copy New and Newer files. This function allows a user to only update files which have changed on the flash drive, rather than re-duplicating the entire device. This feature also gives a user the ability to add files to an existing USB drive without over-writing data currently on the device. With the power feature of Copy New and Newer, the USB200PC becomes more than a simple USB duplicator, but a flash drive management tool.
