What Star Trek fan would not what one of these Enterprise web cameras, it is not just any old Enterprise either it is the one from the first series, Kirks ship in fact!

This simple to use device just plugs into the USB port and the rigid yet flexible gooseneck mount means no mounting on the top of the display either.

The ship comes with all of the decals and lettering that you would expect to find and there is even a Starfleet badge thrown in for good measure, beam me up!

The SungWorld range of computers has the dubious accolade of having a $73 starting price, but by anyone’s standards that is just too cheap and the range has been added to with the 10.1 inch display L3 it’s a little bit more up market than the smaller versions and comes with a much higher price tag of just over $300.

However, this is a venture in cost cutting, finding ways to make the computer cheaper and one of the ways to do that has been to remove the mouse buttons so that they are integrated in with the touch pad.

Features of the ten inch SungWorld L3 netbook:

This is a chance to get your hands on what has been described as the only 3D web camera around. Therefore, you do not have to be James Cameron to have your own 3D camera anymore as this brightly coloured camera has the two lenses that are needed for the 3D effect and so there is no reason why it cannot make short films either.

With a range of around twelve feet, short movies are possible to the home film maker in 3D now! Which is very cool indeed.

Features of the strange looking 3D web cam:

The camera “hangs” from the top of your monitor with its arms and pl

There is sad fact that some consumers do not know much about what is going on underneath the keyboard.

Therefore, when we say that the latest offering from Shanzhai comes with a Nvidia ION platform inside, and just for those people that know little about what is going on under the hood, this is like having a Nitrous Oxide kit in your car.

It is not super fast for everything, but when it comes to playing games and watching movies, it makes a lot of difference.
