Wetpixel Server Status (IMPORTANT)
Hi, readers. Wetpixel has outgrown its current server, so we may be down intermittently over the next couple of weeks. I'm working on migrating to a different server, which should only take a day or two once I flip the switch. During that time, the forums may be disrupted, but it should only be a temporary problem!
Please bear with me while I fix this problem. -Eric

Delkin USB Bridge
Rob Galbraith has gotten a chance to test the Delkin USB Bridge - a product that allows users to connect two USB devices without using a computer. The unit tested was USB1.1 only, not the faster USB2.0 Applications for digital photographers are many, but a few that I can think of right off the bat are: connecting your digital camera directly to a portable USB hard drive, connecting a camera directly to a portable CD or DVD writer, and copying images from one CF card to another using 2 card readers. Rob tested a prototype unit. Delkin's announced price is $70 US.

Digital Shootout Fiji 2004 Webcast
Hello, from Fiji! James and I are having a great time here at the Digital Shootout 2004 in Taveuni. It's been a lot of fun to spend time with the participants and the Backscatter, Light & Motion, and Optiquatics guys.
I'm in the process of uploading a web report of the first three days of the Digital Shootout. The modem is slow; expect the upload to be completed in an hour or two!
