Seiko Epson Corporation recently announced that its EP-976A3 all-in-one inkjet printer (sold in global markets as the XP-950) has been selected for a Japanese 2013 Good Design Award. These awards recognize designs that enrich life and society as a whole.

The EP-976A3 is designed for people who want a high-performance printer that can print out A3 sheets yet can be installed in the same space as an A4 all-in-one. Featuring a footprint more typical of an ordinary A4 printer, this all-in-one produces crisp A3 photos and documents with gorgeous detail. The clean, simple, compact design of the body also provides far greater freedom of installation.

Judges' comments

"When a user prints over WiFi, the output tray, which automatically extends, and the control panel, which automatically tilts upward, make perfect sense when design is considered from a behavioral standpoint. The user interface is similarly designed with affordance*, suggesting the next action to perform on the touch panel. In addition, the minimalist design is beautiful, a result of Epson's efforts to provide A3 output from a printer with A4 compactness. The flow of operations is designed for true ease of use, with affordances that suggest the next selection. "

Smartphone Quick Snap vs SLR Quality Snap


Today’s world is more image-centric than it ever was before. Whether you’re a Facebook fanatic, a Pinterest user, or an avid blog writer, there’s no denying the importance of a good image to attract engagement from friends and readers. 

Fortunately, with the rise of quality and affordable cameras, making photo memories to share with your family, friends, and readers is easier than ever. In fact, most people today own more than one camera—a SLR (single-lens reflex) camera and a smartphone camera—which they use for different purposes. 

You probably use your smartphone camera when you just want to snap a few quick photos of a local landmark or your night out with friends, or when you don’t want to worry about your camera in a crowded place like a concert venue or a theme park. 

On the other hand, you probably use your SLR camera when you want to make sure you’re taking the best quality images at a special event or while you’re on holiday. Let’s take a look at few of the best smartphone cameras and SLR cameras to suit all of your photo needs.

Torque Droidz Drive Tablet Review



I got a hold of a Torque Droidz Drive a few weeks ago and I've been tinkering with it ever since. Tried its features, especially the camera since I live in a world of selfies, instagrams and tweets. It's fun to see a chronological documentation of what you're doing (eating, watching, - practically everything) and accompanied by photos. It's fun looking back and reading about your past whereabouts and I can't stop myself from getting amazed by how creative my shots were.

The quality of the photos from the 2 mp camera still does not replace that of a real camera but the advantage of using tablets is you get to upload it real quick at the chance of a free wi-fi Internet connection. Unless you're using one of those cameras with an Android OS, but that's a different review.


The Torque Droidz Drive is one of the most affordable 7 inch phablet (phone and tablet) available in the Metro. The specifications are fair enough but considering the very low prize of Php 3,999, then that's a great deal you should not let pass.
