Decide what to buy

We’ve been talking about saving money and budget buys recently so we had to share the ultimate triple-use product. Save even more money by buying one product that works as three - like this HDTV which houses a Blu-ray player and a PC!

Named Allio, it has just launched in the US and comes in 32 and 42 inch models. The PC doesn’t have a bad spec at all - Intel Core Duo E8400 processor, 1TB hard drive and 4GB of RAM. It also comes with Windows Vista Home Premium and there are plenty of USB ports and wired / wireless network options.

The HDTV isn’t terrible either. It’s a 1080p panel with 2,000:1 contrast ratio, 400 cd/m2 brightness and twin 12-watt speakers. You can even watch your Blu-ray content as Picture-in-Picture or split-screen.

It’s not available in the UK yet but we’ll keep you posted. In the US, the current prices are:

32″ - £950

42″ - £1800

Low-cost versions are also on the way - even better!

Rumors, rumours. They’ve been flying around the last few days. Here are two that should interest you:

Last week, at the Future of Web Apps expo in London, Kevin Rose, Digg founder extraordinaire, predicted that Apple will unveil their MacBooks packing Blu-ray drives tomorrow at their special event which focuses on notebooks. Exciting stuff? So could this be the beginning of a beautiful relationship that will see all MacBooks with Blu-ray as standard? If you have any thoughts, let us know. In the meantime, if you’re still trying to decide on a MacBook, check out the MacBook reviews.

The other juicy rumor that seems to have come around faster that we’d thought is the release of the Firefox mobile. Firefox’s first mobile outing will be on the Linux-running Nokia N810.

It will be a little like the iPhone, with the N810’s touchscreen but we’re promised that the software will be pretty nifty with tabs, smart URLs and browser extensions. As it’s still early days, this release is intended for testing but check out the video below for a sneak peak.
