The Unitedkeys OLED keyboard is one of the best keyboards around (I'm using one myself...) - with 9 customizable OLED keys. Unitedkeys has agreed to send one of these cool gadgets to the winner of our new contest.

The OLED keyboard normally costs 179$. The keyboards (or "command centers" as Unitedkeys likes to call them) can be really helpful - you can setup the keys to change within each application, and to perform tasks such as macros, application launch, or even jump to a different set of keys.

Gizmodo reports that the new Zune HD will cost 220$ for the 16Gb version, and 299$ for 32Gb. That's cheaper than Sony's OLED walkman (399$ for the 32GB version, and 299$ for the 16GB version). The release date is September 8th.

This information comes from best buy's inventory system, it's not official yet. The Zune HD does appear in Amazon.com, but there's no release or price information yet.

Nikon has officially launched the S70, with the 3.5 touch OLED. The OLED is a "Clear Color Display" according to Nikon (not sure what it means). The S70 costs 400$, and can be pre-ordered now.

Nikon S70

There are rumors that Nikon will release a new camera, the S70, which will include a large (3.5") AMOLED, 5X zoom and a 12Mp sensor.

Nikon will also launch (again, it's still not official) the CoolPix S1000pj, which is the first camera to include a pico-projector. It's actually very much like the S70, only without the AMOLED (and with the projector...).
