Scythe Unveils Kaze Master Pro Fan Controllers
Scythe today expanded its Kaze Master Fan Controller series with the addition of two new models. The new Kaze Master Pro 5.25" and 3.5" fan controllers support two extra fans and temperature channels in comparison to their standard counterparts. This enables users to operate up to six fans between 3.7V and 12V, along with up to six temperature sensors. Both controllers include VF-Displays (Vacuum Fluorescent Displays) which show fan speed and temperature for two fans (5.25" model) or one fan (3.5" model) with turn-switches to change the fan and temperature sensor displayed. Each controller includes an individual knob for the fan speed of each fan and an alarm which sounds when critical temperatures are reached or if a fan fails. Both controllers feature a new black chassis. The Kaze Master Pro 5.35 (KM03-BK) and Kaze Master Pro 3.5 (KM03-BK-3.5) are available for US$45.00 and US$36.00 respectively, excluding tax.

Sony Announces Faster Memory Stick Pro-HG Duo HX
Sony has announced that it is increasing the speed of its Memory Stick Pro-HG Duo HX series. The name is a long one, but the cards come in capacities up to 32GB in size. Now, Sony is going to increase the speed to 30MB/second though it did not announce whether that is read or write. I believe it is a read speed since that just makes the most sense for the memory stick. With speeds like that, it easily beats out SD-based storage options so for anyone using a Sony device, it looks like you can access your saved data even faster than before.
The price of the Memory Stick Pro-HG Duo HX series is quite expensive, with the 8GB model starting at $59.99. A summer release window has been announced for the faster speed cards, though no word on how these will be differentiated from the slower Pro-HG Duo HX series was made.
