Whoa, Gateway! Go on and get down with your bad self. The gem pictured above goes by FHD2303L, and it's easily one of the sexiest LCD monitors that we've seen in recent memory. The company engineered the 23-incher with a transparent frame and an asymmetrical stand, and much like the glossy-bezel'd FHX2152L (21.5-inch) and FHX2402L (24-inch), it also packs a 12,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio, 1920 x 1080 native resolution and a 16:9 aspect ratio. The FHD model boasts a five millisecond response time, while both of the FHX panels check in with a two millisecond response time; the whole crew offers 250 nits of brightness, VGA / DVI outputs and reasonable price tags. How reasonable? Try $249.99, $189.99 and $249.99 in order of mention.

Source: http://gizmodo.com/5655197/sharps-new-japanese-android-phone-has-a-retina-display-equivalent

Sharp's New Japanese Android Phone Has a Retina Display EquivalentSharp's new IS03 Android handset has a 960 x 640, 3.5" screen, putting it toe to toe with the iPhone 4's super crisp Retina Display. Oh, and then there's the 9.6MP camera and the TV tuner.

The IS03 employs an Advanced Super View display in lieu of IPS for keeping things visible from all angles, and its 9.6MP camera has autofocus and image stabilization. The 1seg TV tuner and Osaifu-Keitai contactless payment system are just the icing on the cake. It'll be available on Japan's KDDI au network soon, but hopefully the rest of the world will be able to feast their retinas on the display sometime in the future. [Engadget]

Publish Your Own EBook (And Profit!) With Barnes and Noble's PubIt! [Ebooks]

Source: http://gizmodo.com/5655313/publish-your-own-ebook-and-profit-with-barnes-and-nobles-pubit

Publish Your Own EBook (And Profit!) With Barnes and Noble's PubIt!Barnes & Noble just launched PubIt!, a new platform that lets individuals upload their opuses, sell them as real, honest-to-goodness ebooks in B&N's eBookstore, and keep a decent chunk of the profit.

Hopefully you have the Microsoft Word document that sci-fi epic you wrote kicking around on a burned CD somewhere, because PubIt! couldn't make it simpler to get your work to the Nook-wielding masses.

First, you upload your file. It can be in TXT, RTF, HTML, or Microsoft Word. Basically, if you banged it out on a typewriter, you're out of luck, but if it's digital, PubIt! will take it, regardless of file size, and turn it into a nice clean ePub file. Within 72 hours, your ebook will show up in Barnes and Noble's eBookstore. It'll be viewable on Nooks, natch, as well as the Nook apps for iOS, Android, PCs, Macs and the like.

You can sell your book for any price ranging from $1 to $200. A price less than $10 nets you 65% per sale, while anything above $10 gets 40%. B&N says that they won't sneak up on you with any hidden fees anywhere along the line, which, along with its simplicity, is presumably what makes PubIt! competitive with Amazon's 70/30 publishing program. Now go get writing. [PubIt! via Fast Company]
