Nowadays in the digital age a company’s main way to make some money in the market is to release products on a regular basis. With the level of speed and momentum that the technological developments in this age have, the portable music player that you bought in the store is probably obsolete just a few months later and indeed that jives with when the company usually has their next release. Transcend is no different in this respect and for that reason they have now released one more music player onto the market.
The Everex Cloudbook Max is equipped with a VIA C-7 CPU, 1600 megahertz processor, VIA Chrome9 graphics card, and a Vista operating system with a 8.9″ 1024×600 display. Clocking in at 2048 MB of RAM, 80 GB standard hard drive, this new machine weighs just 1000 kilograms, and is only 240 millimeters wide, 175 millimeters in height, and 27 millimeters deep. Holding one SD card slot, three USB2.0 slots, VGA, analogue video out, 10/100 ethernet jack, the Everex also has 902.11b/g wireless, BT2.0 wireless, and Wi Max, which can be used on Sprint’s XOHM network, alongside integrated GPS and integrated front and rear cameras, both coming in at 2.0 megapixels, right around the resolution of a decent cell-phone camera.
The Nokia N810 comes as quite the refresher for those in the cell-phone world. Let’s start you off with the hard and fast facts, shall we? Good. It’s got a TI OMAP 2420 processr, clocked at 400MHz, 128MB DDR RAM; 256MB flash memory, 2GB internal memory, with SD as well as mini-SD compatible expansion slots to give you up to 8GB of memory total. A 4.13-inch wide-screen LCD with 800×480 pixel resolution and 65K colors should suit you quite well, alongside the ambient light sensor, slide out QWERTY keyboard, and built-in web camera. For internet, you’ve got yourself a 802.11b/g WiFi, as well as WiMax through Sprint’s XOHM network. Want more? It also comes with a USB 2.0 via micro-connector, Bluetooth 2.0 +EDR, built-in microphone and speakers, a 3.5 mm stereo out, built in GPS antenna and FM transmitter. Just under 8 ounces, 7.97 to be exact, the N810 is 5.04 inches tall, 2.83 inches wide, and 0.55 inches deep, and has four hours of continuous use time on its’ battery. But, what’s so special about this?
The Intel Classmate 2, one of many in the lines of the smaller sized laptops, has some pretty solid specs. It will come with a 9-inch LCD display, six-cell battery, 512MB RAM, 30GB HDD, integrated webcam, 802.11b/g WiFi support, Windows XP or Linux OS and the Intel Celeron M processor. However, despite upgrading to the larger screen, Intel kept the resolution the same size as its’ predecessor, keeping it as a measely 800 by 480 pixels. Future versions will move to Intel’s Atom platform, however there is no official date yet set for that upgrade. Hot off the presses, the Classmate 2 went live for sale but a few days ago on April 2nd. Geared towards the younger generation, primarily those between 6 and 12 years of age, the laptop comes standard with Windows XP and MS Office, giving them experience with the platform and software suite they’ll likely encounter in the near future of their computing us.
Microsoft Surface is a 30-inch (76 cm) display in the form of a table, 22 inches (56 cm) tall, 21 inches (53 cm) deep, and 42 inches (107 cm) left to right. The tabletop is acrylic, while the interior frame is constructed of powder-coated steel. The platform’s software runs on a customized version of Windows Vista, and is equipped with wired Ethernet 10/100, wireless 802.11 b/g, and Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity. Released on May 30th, 2007, Microsoft Surface came to light in early 2001, and similar concepts have been featured in movies like Minority Report, who actually talked with Microsoft during the making of the movie. Unlike your normal PC, the touch screen allows users to be as hands on as possible, manipulating images with their fingertips.
Asus and Intel teamed up recently to create the newest version of the Eee series PC’s. Dubbed “Eee” because of their slogan, “Easy to work, easy to learn, easy to play”, it sports an 8.9″ display, 1024×600 pixel screen, 1 GB of ram standard, 9-12GB solid-state flash hard drive, and a larger trackpad than it’s predecessor, the 7 series, with two finger scrolling using a pinching motion. The Window’s-read, Linux-capable Eee will also be eventually powered by Intel’s Atom processor, with future options for a bigger hard drive. Set for a release in April of this year, the device is inexpensive, coming in at around $500. However the main issues with this device are that the keyboard area is a bit cramped together, making it difficult to type, small screen size, small screen resolution, small hard drive space…well, I’m sure you get the picture.
We all love the Cintiq interactive pen display and now Wacom has released a compact version of it just in time for the holiday season. In case you were wondering all of the features that could be found on the original 21 in. full sized model are still available for this compact tablet.
The new device – which is selling for $1,800 (1,200 Euros) – has already hit the stores and attracted consumers to its unique design. The new display features dimensions at 405×270x1 mm. and a 12.1” TFT screen that offers 1280×800 in pixel resolution. With it you can draw, paint, and sketch. It is any artists dream gadget.
While anyone can purchase the 12WX – it is mostly geared to professionals who make their living off of creating digital content. Some of the jobs that they can work on are storyboards, finishing, re-touching, and composition. If you are looking to share your work through digital format than they have made the traditional sketchpad available – which allows you to send and share anything quickly.
Home theatre projectors are becoming more and more popular that any of us would have imagined. In fact many people are opting for a projector and rejecting the usual trendy style of the LCD and plasma screens. The fact that you can get a much better home theatre experience at a lower price is what attracts consumers the most.
NEC knows this and that is why they have released their new line of NP1150, NP2150, and NP3150 projectors this week. While they were created mainly for professional businesses and schools I think we can all agree that buying one for the home wouldn’t necessarily be a bad idea.
These projectors are special because they are the very first commercial projectors that allow users to take advantage of the ‘Connect to a Network Projector’ wizard that can be found on any Windows Vista server.
The new N82 is the newest smart-phone from Nokia that is set to take the place of the N95. The new phone will have much of the same features as the N95 and a few new ones to go with it. The new features include a 5 mega-pixel camera and a GPS navigation system that has been built into the phone.
After hearing complaints from consumers that the N95 was too bulky Nokia knew that the newer model would have to be smaller. The N82 may be longer – but it is slimmer and weighs around 10 grams less than the N95. The only thing that they slimmed down that should have stayed the same was the QVGA color screen. The 2.6 inch found on the N95 was reduced to 2.4 inches.
Computers have evolved into something that every consumer wants to get their hands on. The Eee PC (easy to learn, easy to play, and easy to work) is a computer that is smaller than a laptop but bigger than a pocket PC. It weighs 0.9 kilograms and has a 7” screen that runs at 800×480 resolutions. The crystal clear screen makes it easy for you to see everything that you are doing so no worries there.
Naturally you can expect that the keyboard is small in size making it difficult for people with larger fingers to type. Overall though most people found it was the same as typing on a laptop.
There are three versions that you can buy. The Eee PC 4G model – which is fully featured, and the ‘lighter’, less-expensive, forthcoming 4G Surf, and 2G Surf models. It has everything that you would want and need including a graphical variety of Linux, Windows OS, Open-Office applications, web browser, Skype, and around 5 Linux games.
At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?" And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, "Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 18:1-4, ESV)
