SanDisk "Ultra" versions of their 16GB MicroSD

SanDisk "Ultra" versions of their 16GB MicroSD

So here is new in Mini Storage Industry. SanDisk just announced "Ultra" versions of their 16GB MicroSD and M2 memory cards, which fit into mobile phones. The new Ultra cards transfer files to and from PCs faster than existing non-ultra cards.

The new card’s ultra speeds seem to only come into play when you’re using them with a dedicated, PC-based card reader – not if they’re plugged into a phone already. That’s because the speed of transferring files directly to a phone is usually limited by the phone, not by the memory card.

The new 16GB Mobile Ultra MicroSD will cost $119.99 and the 16GB M2 card (which works with Sony Ericsson phones) will cost $129.99. Both will go on sale this month.

I believed it will be great to those Mobile users like me. Taking pictures kills my 2 GB Memory in my cellphone.

Wireless Induction Chargers at CES 2009

image

The Wireless Induction Chargers by Powermat.

It has been estimated that the Powermats will hit store shelves this fall. The mats will come in five versions: family mat for charging up to six gadgets, a smaller fold-up mat for travel, PC mat for charging laptops, desk mat that comes with a wireless speaker and a bedside mat with a rechargeable clock.

Each mat will cost around $100. But that’s not all. You’ll also have to buy receivers — doodads that connect your devices to the mats and conduct the charge. Those will set you back around $30 a pop. So waving goodbye to wired chargers might also mean parting with a good chunk of change.

CES 2009 : New Netbooks, Laptops from Asus

CES 2009 : New Netbooks, Laptops from AsusAsus also introduced New line of Netbook and Laptops. Asus introduced a number of new laptops at CES 2009. Among them are an ultraportable that runs like a race car (the Lamborghini VX5), a tablet PC (the Eee PC T91), and an even slimmer, sleeker netbook. We can say that the high-style Lamborghini VX5 is a premium machine. The VX5 is largely black, with yellow highlights inside and a whole lot of Italian leather stitched into the carbon-fiber chassis.

Other highlights include a backlit keyboard/mouse combo and an ambient-light sensor akin to what you see on the MacBook Air. Revving underneath the hood (and you think I’m just being metaphorical…when you powered up the VX3, you’d hear a car roar) is an Intel quad-core processor, up to 4GB of DDR2 RAM, room for two SATA hard drives, and "the latest GPU."

Besides being able to run Windows Vista on its 16-inch, 1920-by-1080-pixel display, the VX5 also offers an ExpressGate mode; this Linux shell boots up in 8 seconds and provides access to the most basic multimedia and online functions. Among the other features are a 2-megapixel Webcam, a TV tuner, and 802.11n and Bluetooth 2.1+ EDR support. That’s saying nothing of the wireless broadband built into the device, and the fact that it is WiMax-ready.

Asus’s second model, is the S121, technically isn’t a netbook. Nor is it a further refinement of the already-refined N10Jc, according to Asus. The less-than-an-inch-thick metallic frame with leather trim houses a machine that attempts to fill the void between netbook and notebook. While the S121 does have an Atom processor, nobody will mistake it for a budget box after a look at its 12.1-inch, LED, active-matrix TFT, 1280-by-800-pixel display (presented with edge-to-edge glass) and its roomy 128GB solid-state drive. the S121, Asus claims, can survive upward of 10 hours on an internal and external battery working together.

The S121 could be a great, lightweight (about 2.6 pounds), road-ready companion. But it will be facing a lot of stiff competition in the coming year, from, say, the surfacing of a new tweener class of portables using everything from nVidia’s Ion platform to Via Nano processors and whatever else AMD has to show off.

The other big laptop coming from Asus’s stables is the only one clinging to the Eee name: the Eee PC T91 Tablet. Think of it as a touch-screen variant of the 8.9-inch, 901-series models that broke out on the scene in 2008. This hybrid netbook operates the same way as full-blown convertible laptops do, offering a screen capable of rotating 180 degrees. The T91 will offer built-in GPS functionality, a TV tuner, and an FM transmitter. It has the potential to be one well-rounded, affordable, portable entertainer.

So here you are and more to be revealed this week with CES 2009.

Kiboko camera backpack designed by wildlife shooter

imageThis new "Kiboko" camera backpack, designed by "renowned wildlife photographer" Andy Biggs will certainly make you more than able to get that close-up of your golden retriever taking down a zebra in your backyard.

Which is not to say that it doesn’t look pretty decent. It does. Deep enough to hold big SLR bodies and medium format cameras, as well as up to 600mm lens, the whole bag is made of a lightweight sailcloth that keeps the unloaded bag down to under four pounds.

It’s priced for pros, though: $400 if you buy direct from manufacturer Guru Gear.

X-Ray Picture of MacBook

X-Ray Picture of MacBook

Have you seen an xray picture of macbook ? Well this is your chance to see it ..

About a week ago, I was in the mood to do something crazy — anything to help pull myself out of the blue funk I had fallen into. I texted my brother the vet to ask if he had an x-ray machine in his office, and what size his film plates were. I told him that I wanted to try and x-ray my laptop, something that had been on my mind ever since I saw an x-ray of an Apple Titanium PowerBook. He said “No problem,” and two days later I was sitting in his office waiting for him to finish minor surgery on a dog. When he was done and had washed up, he led me to the x-ray machine, asked me to place the laptop on the plate, and signaled for me to step away from the machine. A couple of seconds later the x-ray was done, and after 15 minutes his assistant handed me the developed film. I scanned the developed plate and enhanced the brightness and contrast, and made low-res copies of the file.
