That day is not yet here, however &#8211; most of us still like our e-reading experience to be as close as possible to that of reading a book. To that end, this week a team from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) announced the development of new e-reading system, that brings several book-like capabilities to tablets and smartphones. <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/smart-e-book-system/21097/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/3d-systems-cubify-printer/21091/">No assembly required for Cubify 3D printer</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/author/jonathan-fincher/">Jonathan Fincher</a></p> <p><em>13:45 January 12, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/3d-systems-cubify-printer/21091/#comments">6 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/3d-systems-cubify-printer/21091/pictures">14 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/3d-systems-cubify-printer/21091/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/3d-systems-cubify-printer-12.jpg" title="3D Systems' Cubify 3D printer is ready to work right out of the box" alt="3D Systems' Cubify 3D printer is ready to work right out of the box"/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>Since becoming more widely available to the public, people have found a myriad of uses for 3D printers, whether it's <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/bone-like-material-3d-printer/20663/" target="_blank">recreating bone</a>, constructing <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/project-shellter-3d-printed-hermit-crab-shells/20272/" target="_blank">replacement shells</a> for hermit crabs, or simply customizing <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/my-robot-nation-3d-printing-webgl-robot/20687/" target="_blank">mini robot figurines</a>. Unfortunately, most 3D printers still have one drawback over other types of printers, in that they typically need to be put together like a hobby kit. Seeing as most electronics are purchased fully intact, the idea of having to build a device piece by piece can be off-putting to consumers. 3D Systems is hoping to rectify the problem with its own 3D printer that actually works right out of the box, along with a new Cubify platform for designing and distributing printed creations. <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/3d-systems-cubify-printer/21091/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <div class="summary_item "> <div class="summary_details"> <div class="sd_top"> </div> <div class="clear_both"> <h2><a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/panasonic-smallest-4k2k-ips-panel/21061/">Panasonic demos world's smallest and thinnest 4K2K IPS Alpha panel</a></h2> <div class="summary_details_left"> <p>By <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/author/ben-coxworth/">Ben Coxworth</a></p> <p><em>16:34 January 10, 2012</em></p> </div> <div class="summary_details_right"> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/comments.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/panasonic-smallest-4k2k-ips-panel/21061/#comments">9 Comments</a> </p> <p><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614im_/http://images.gizmag.com/layout/icons/image_modernist.png" alt=""/> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/panasonic-smallest-4k2k-ips-panel/21061/pictures">5 Pictures</a></p> </div> </div> </div> <center><a class="noback" href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/panasonic-smallest-4k2k-ips-panel/21061/"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614im_/http://images.gizmag.com/hero/panasonic-20-inch-4k2k-1.jpg" title="Panasonic's 4K2K display packs around 8.29 million pixels into a 20-inch display" alt="Panasonic's 4K2K display packs around 8.29 million pixels into a 20-inch display"/></a></center> <div class="summary"> <p>At <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/tag/ces-2012/" target="_blank">CES</a> this week, Panasonic unveiled what it claims is the world's smallest, thinnest 4K2K-resolution, 20-inch IPS Alpha LCD panel.

Even if they&#8217;re not, you don&#8217;t always want your devices and their cables cluttering up your desk. You can buy USB adapters for wall outlets, but then you end up needing to find an available outlet, and subsequently occupying it (in older homes especially, unused AC outlets are often something of a rarity). Now, there&#8217;s an alternative to using your computer <em>or</em> an adapter to charge your gizmos &#8211; it&#8217;s the Newer Technology Power2U AC/USB Wall Outlet. <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/power2u-ac-usb-wall-outlet/21042/">Read More</a> </p> </div> </div> <center class="snap_noshots"> <div class="next_prev"><strong> <span>1</span> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/electronics/2/">2</a> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/electronics/3/">3</a> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/electronics/4/">4</a> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/electronics/5/">5</a> <a href="/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/electronics/2/">Next </a> &#187; </strong></div> </center> <div class="dotsontop"> <!-- Google Search Box --> <div id="search_form_bottom"> <form action="https://web.archive.org/web/20120118180614/http://www.gizmag.com/search/" id="cse-search-box-bottom"> <span class="title">Looking for something?
