Soon the Aliph New Jawbone Bluetooth headset (rated 4 out of 5 by PCMag’s Jamie Lendino) will be shipping with new earbuds. At last night’s CES Pepcom event, Aliph was handing out “beta” packages of the earbuds. `

The redesigned earbuds are said to offer a more ergonomic design and secure fit for those who want to wear the headset without an earloop. Look for them to be included with the New Jawbone headset sometime in Q1 of 2009.

Logitech introduces G-series peripherals for gamers who need lots of buttons

Logitech introduces G-series peripherals for gamers who need lots of buttons

Flush with the success of its G13 gameboard, Logitech is now creating a whole series of peripherals that will all work together to celebrate the seventh letter of the alphabet. The G-series line includes a new $199 G19 keyboard, offering a 320 x 240 color LCD mounted on top and 12 “G-keys” that can have up to three macros assigned to each. Next up is the $129 G35, a 7.1 surround-sound headset with integrated “voice-morphing” options for those who’d rather sound like a space squirrel than domestic gamer. Finally, there’s a new flavor of the G9 mouse, dubbed the G9x, which loses the photo-overlay in favor of a maximum DPI of 5000 — that’s a whole 1800 more than before! Those extra dots will set you back $99 when the G9x releases in April, while the keyboard and headset should come about a month earlier.
