Sony NEX-5N 16.1 MP Compact Interchangeable Lens Touchscreen Camera With 18-55mm Lens

We just though you should know that Sony’s new mid-specced NEX-5N digital camera is already in stock at Amazon US, selling at around $750 (above the $700 Amazon pre-order price), for those who can’t wait to get it in their hands. Having a peak over at Amazon UK, the camera is set to be released on September 5th, so that could be an indication that the official US launch date is not far off either.

As a refresher, the NEX-5N has a new 16.1-megapixel APS-C sensor and can shoot up to an ISO 25,600. Autofocus has been improved and shutter lag has come down to 20ms. The NEX-5N has slimmed by 15mm from its predecessor and can manage full 1080p HD video with ease. We think the NEX-5N is a great choice for its ease of use — it now features a touch screen panel — low ISO performance and really good video.

We’re sure your are going to appreciate this video.

HP Touchpad line terminated fire sale

With HP dropping the price all the way down to $99 for the 16GB unit, the Touchpad has pretty much sold out wherever it was on sale in the US, giving WebOS a few last minutes in the spotlight. In fact the now discontinued tablet has become a bestselling item on Amazon US.

Well now the UK is set to join in the picking. A tweet from Dixons head of media relations Mark Webb has announced that the HP Touchpad will go on sale later today for £89 ($146) and £115 ($189) for the 16GB and 32GB versions. We’re also hearing that this will actually be the UK’s official sales price for the tablet and that Amazon UK will also soon be dropping prices to match.

We’ll try and let you know as soon as the sale prices hit, but you might also want to keep an eye on the links below as these things tend to sell out fast.
