GE cameras; price drops
In brief: General Electrics today revealed its General Imaging brand, representing the company's very first entry into digital cameras. Co-founded by Takeyoshi Kawano, who helped design Sony's iconic VAIO and Walkman lines, GI hopes to focus primarily on higher-quality designer cameras: every model will ship with high ISO ratings, image stabilization, and a stitch mode for creating panoramas. The first two cameras should arrive in April.... NewerTech has lowered the price on some of its miniStack V2 external hard drives, which have both FireWire and USB 2.0 ports. The 400GB drive is $40 less at $200, while the top-end 750GB model is $46 less at $449. Also new is the bundling of Prosoft's DataBackupII software for Mac OS X.... Scottevest is promoting its Sixth Anniversary Sale, featuring discounts on clothing that lets you thread wires like iPod earbuds without exposing them. Some eligible pieces include the Fleece 4.0 ($140) and the Milan ($450).... macProVideo.com has announced a new video tutorial for Ultrabeat, Logic's drum synth application. Viewers are taught how to program the software, modify samples, and create their own patterns.

GE?
MacNN, GE is General Electric, the US company. Is that what you meant by General Electrics? If not, then you should not put "GE" in the title. Seems like a sad attempt at getting more hits from all the people who search for GE medical imaging products.
