Ultra-compact portable TV
Japanese manufacturer BlueDot has released a new portable TV which is extremely compact, even by the standards of the region. The BTV-400 has a four-inch screen, but is only 4.9 inches long -- and perhaps more crucially, it is only 0.4 inches thick, making it easy to fit into a pocket. The set also weighs a mere 4.2 ounces. Viewers can make use of an electronic program guide, and watch 1Seg mobile broadcasts within Japan. The 400 is on sale in black, white or red for 30,000 yen, or about $247. [via Akihabara News]
