The Vosonic X'S-Drive Pro VP 300 is 40GB external
hard drive that is clunky, cheap-looking, has a crappy text-only
integrated screen, plays MP3s, but not WMA, AAC, or OGG Vorbis, and
can only read from one card from its card reader at a time. So why
would any photographer want it? Because it's cheap, it does the
primary job it was designed to do (act as remote backup for memory
cards), and can accept as many additional 2.5-inch laptop hard drives
as you want to swap into it, meaning that all other things aside, you
can purchase this single $335 drive and continue to upgrade it for
only the price of additional hard drives. Read -

...Internet cafe users in China have long been subject to an
extraordinary range of controls. They include cameras placed
discreetly throughout the establishments to monitor and identify users
and Web masters, and Internet cafe managers who keep an eye on user
activity, whether electronically or by patrolling the premises.
The average Internet user, meanwhile, neither sees nor, in many
cases, suspects the activities of a force widely estimated to number
as many as 30,000 Internet police officers. Experts on China's
Internet say the officers are constantly engaged in a cat-and-mouse
game with equally determined Web surfers, blocking access to sites
that the government considers politically offensive, monitoring users
who visit other politically sensitive sites and killing off discussion
threads on Internet bulletin boards.
[...]
Asked if the privacy of Internet users could be infringed, the
official said that the Shanghai government had noted the issue, but
added that "Internet bars are public areas, and some experts say that
what one says in a public area should not be considered
private."
"Some experts say".. ;-) Some experts will say
anything.
Seriously though, I can only see how this will get worse for both
sides. Obviously the "arms vendors" will make money in the
cat-and-mouse game, but can China afford to ramp up the Internet
police force as China gets more and more wired/wireless. I wonder how
long this "control" can continue and how much it's going to cost them.
I guess that for now, they believe the control is worth the price.
