AfterDawn.com has been updated! In addition to renewing the layout of the site we have also speeded up things considerably. The new version has been tested on our Finnish site for several months, and during the testing we have managed to improve the new version even further.
You can now enjoy this new layout at English AfterDawn.com and English Discussion Forums as well! We have also introduced new sections to the site, and re-arranged things a bit.
A Chinese company called Hechuan Photoelectrics has developed, and patented their own version of the DVD-laser optical pickup used in every DVD-player to read data from disc. They will be investing more than $50 million in a factory to produce the parts.
This is great news for the Chinese DVD-market -- until now Chinese DVD-player manufacturers have had to rely on imported DVD-heads. Domestic manufacturing the key components of a DVD player will most definitely boost sales in China. And I'm sure we'll see the players marketed abroad as well.
