Sanyo will be offering two new projectors to the Japanese market called the LP-XC55 and LP-XC50. Both feature white exteriors, a 7-watt internal speaker, 1,024 x 768 resolution, a security bar enabling extra thick cabling and the Active Maintenance Filter system for easy maintenance so the filter will last longer between changes and “automatically senses when airflow is interfered by dust changing the cartridge to the new filter. The only difference between the two is the 3,100 ANSI lumens (XC55) / 2,600 ANSI lumens (XC50) and the Â¥365,400 ($3,529) / Â¥312,900 ($3,022) prices. [About Projectors]
Dimitar Dimitrov from PhoneArena provides us with a full review of the recently released Sanyo Katana LX mobile phone. The handset is actually a successor to the Katana II and latest addition to Sanyo’s Katana line. The Katana LX boasts a mirrored finish and hidden OLED outer display. Here is a conclusion.
We have mixed feelings about the Katana LX, mostly hinging on where it sits in tries to fit into the market. By entry level phone standards it is very good; the battery life is excellent, the design is compact and stylish and there are a few different color options. However, it is currently priced at $49.99 on contract, which puts it head-to-head with devices such as the text-friendly LG Rumor and the more capable Samsung M520, both of which we’d have a hard time passing up for the LX. We have a feeling that the LX will drop in price once the Sanyo 3200 is discontinued, which will make it an excellent value for what it offers.

Both projectors feature a whisper quiet fan that produces just 35 dBA of noise, and something called the One-Way Flow System which uses a single intake and exhaust vent with easily accessible dust filters.
