Remember that smattering of new FinePix cameras that leaked late last month? Turns out that Fujifilm had a bunch more in store that were missed, and we’re bringing the whole lot to you tonight. We suspect this is just the beginning of the pre-PMA rush, so we won’t waste any time getting to the nitty gritty — here’s what you need to know about each of the new models, with the full releases waiting for you after the break.

While U.S. audiences suffered through yet another anaglyph 3D broadcast as the Grammys presented Earth Song in traditional red/blue format courtesy of Target-distributed glasses, Sky kicked off its first true 3DTV broadcast across the pond during a Man. U/Arsenal match. Distributed to a few select pubs ahead of a wide rollout due in April, patrons slipped on passive 3D glasses and caught the entire match live from Emirates stadium. Luckily this experiment went over far better than the Dallas Cowboys disaster, though several criticized the need to remain more directly in front of the monitor to see the action and that the effect was less pronounced on long shots. However the new tech excelled the most during close ups and slow motion, as Pocket-Lint quoted viewer Kate Cobley “It’s brilliant, the corner and back of the goal views are just amazing. It makes the game so much better. If it’s in 3D then I would definitely be more likely to come to the pub to watch sport.” We figure the real test will come during the World Cup this summer, if ESPN’s 3DTV broadcast can get U.S. audiences tuning into the beautiful game then 3D may actually live up to all the CES hype. Until then check the read and more coverage links for a few more impressions, or the video embedded after the break.

Still plagued by the annoying screen flicker on your precious 27-inch iMac, even after the previous update? Try this second attempt by Apple. While you’re at it, there’s also a minor update for iTunes which makes sure it actually “remember[s] password for purchases,” as well as fixing a few sync and performance issues. Good luck with both and let us know if your iMac nightmare is finally over.

In all the CES madness, we somehow missed MSI’s previously-teased Wind Box DE220. Fortunately, Liliputing didn’t; the site’s just now putting up impressions and along with it some specs of the novel-sized nettop. It’s packing Pinetrail for starters, in the form of a single-core Atom D410 or dual-core D510. Also included are an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4330, up to 1TB HDD / 4GB memory, 802.11b/g/n, and Windows 7 home premium. Mum’s the word on price or release date, but from what we’ve seen, you can at least start decorating around its known color options: blue, red, and black.

Dare we say that circular-shaped mice are actually becoming a trend? Swooping in like a ball on Newton’s Cradle is the OreObject SPHEREtouch mouse to knock the Jelfin mouse on its head. Though this time we’ve got to admit the pricey SPHEREtouch has us rather intrigued. Not only is the handmade mouse available in your choice of steel, titanium and platinum, but OreObject has shaken things up with a large horizontal scroll wheel and two touch-sensitive buttons. Mac and PC compatible, it all sounds interesting and looks very pretty until you realize that the steel version starts at $155 and that the platinum one will set you back $225. For that kind of money, we’d at least expect them to cut the cord for some Bluetooth. But hey, if you’ve always wanted at least one indestructible ball of steel that source link has your name all over it.
