Having a say on exec pay
San Diego Union Tribune
099 billion in 2007. The company’s shares declined 29 percent last year. A similar change happened at DivX a San Diego maker of video-compression software. Based on the criteria set by the board CE Kevin Hell would not have received a full bonus last year. But the board amended the bonus criteria after Yahoo pulled out of an cross-marketing agreement with DivX which reduced the company’s revenue. DivX has sued Yahoo for breach of contract. Hell received a bonus of $429167 equal to his salary.

The B5100 appears to be powered by Nokia’s S60 3rd Edition user interface and it looks as though DivX support is also on board. The exterior of the Samsung B5100 looks to be made of metal and it is rumored to feature a built-in GPS receiver along with WiFi and a microSD card slot.

LG shipping Blu-ray recorders to Europe soon
Cnet Asia
Specifications-wise the recorder has an integrated DVB-T digital TV tuner and a rather conservative 160GB disc drive compared with the Japanese equivalent’s terabyte capacity. As a Blu-ray player the HR400 will support the latest BD-Live advanced interactivity for downloading Web-based content and 1080p DVD upscaling. ther enticing features include updated DivX HD-compatibility as well as YouTube video streaming. There’s no firm indication as to availability though it’s expected to cost a whopping 599 euros (US$858).

LG Arena KM900
Asiane
The Arena has enough multimedia juice to satisfy entertainment fanatics. It supports both DivX and Xvid formats (the most popular video formats used today) has a TV output (via an optional cable) and even Dolby Mobile for virtual surround sound. I love its high resolution 480 x 800 pixels screen which is much higher than most of the other phones I have seen. It displays movies such as Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace brilliantly. Audio quality is also very good provided you use your own headphones – the pair that comes with the phone leaves much to be desired. If taking photos is more your thing you will be happy to know that it has a 5MP camera with autofocus.
