Just in case you weren’t familiar with the original Orochi notebook gaming mouse that Razer put out a couple of years ago, it’s basically a mouse with gaming/performance bits and Bluetooth/ USB connectivity built into a compact mouse meant for portable/laptop gaming. This update is basically a purely cosmetic one, coming with the same high-end specs, but in a better-looking shiny shell.
The Razer Switchblade concept device might not have been more than a blip on your radar when it was first pimped out at CES because, well, it was just a “concept” device at the time. It was certainly interesting though: the Switchblade is basically a Windows 7-based notebook with a 6.8-inch screen running on an Atom processor. Unlike your regular Atom-powered netbook, this thing’s specifically designed for gaming-on-the-go with a backlit dynamic keyboard that can be customized to show buttons for games. It should cause a bigger blip pretty soon though, since it’s actually set to start selling in China.
After coming out with the original DeathAdder that’s been on a lot of gamers’ must-have peripherals and the DeathAdder Left Hand Edition for a lot of left-handed gamers (including Robert Krakoff, Razer’s left-handed president), here’s another twist to the iconic DeathAdder mouse: a Black Edition.
Here’s the scenario: you love your portable console, but you’d rather not use a pair of crappy earphones that shut you off from the rest of the world. Problem is, the built-in speakers on your mobile device pretty much sucks. Solution? Razer’s Ferox speaker kit, which is basically a pair of portable stereo speakers that feature 360-degree omni-directional sound. They’re also pretty compact so they’ll pretty much go wherever your gaming device goes.
Razer just showed off a new handheld gaming concept machine at the CES show. Called the Switchblade Concept, the device is basically a tiny Windows 7-based, Intel Atom-running mini-PC that’s been tweaked specifically for gaming-on-the-go. The notebook-shaped device features a 6.8-inch multi-touch screen, and a dynamic keyboard with keys that change their assigned functions depending on the game being played.
