p10-and-s10

Setting aside Mobile phones that have HD recording (Samsung Omnia HD anyone?) for a moment, Toshiba has just announced two devices that are pretty mobile – they call them Pocket camcorders.

Camcording has seen some price compression in recent times with the Flip range being announced, but Tosh have gone one better and aimed for full 1080p-capable cameras! That elicits a tech-phwoaaar!!!!

To be fair, they are entry-level devices, but they do have some impressive features such as:

  • H.264 encoding
  • 5MP CMOS sensor
  • 4x digital zoom
  • 2.5 inch LCD
  • 32GB expandable storage
  • image stabiliser
  • night mode
  • HDMI output
  • YouTube upload

I don’t know about you, but for £100-130 (for the Pro P10 and Pro S10 respectively) that sounds like a damn good deal! If I can get my grubby little mitts on one I will give it a review soon (hint hint Toshiba!)

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
