Hasta La Gadget!

Did you miss out on the Nissan Leaf pre-orders? Yeah, us too. Are you planning on cruising around in Costa Rica sometime after February? Sadly you can count us out there, but if you’ve checked both boxes you might want be interested to know that Mitsubishi’s i MiEV electric car will be available there starting next month, making it the first country in this hemisphere to sell them. The car offers a 100 mile maximum range and a top speed of 80, quite comparable to the Leaf, but the $61,500 price down there almost doubles Nissan’s offering up here. That’s also twice what the i MiEV is expected to sell for when it ships to the mainland this fall, quite possibly thanks to the massive import duties applied to cars in the land of Pura Vida. But, with as few as 25 of the machines offered for sale, this is something of a niche release anyhow.

Well, would you have a look at this? Details are scarce right now, but by the looks of these ads outside CES, this Casio TRYX imager sports two hinges for the sake of versatility: one for the frame that doubles as a handle or a stand, and one for swiveling the display — presumably a touchscreen since there are just a couple of buttons on the body. Coincidentally, Google also led us to the TRYX’s stash of press shots which have now been pulled, but we’ve got you guys a screenshot for the time being — it’s not like it’ll be long before all is unveiled, anyway.
