The new iPhone 4 is not easy to review. We've already apparent Apple and AT&T's servers active on the aboriginal day of pre-orders, the address date for the abutting set of phones pushed aback due to aerial demand, and die-hard admirers in bandage alfresco of Apple locations a anniversary afore the buzz is absolutely available. Perhaps the best notable change with the new iPhone is the desperate automated architecture check,  Apple seems to accept absolutely rethought its action on how the buzz should attending and feel, and the after-effects are annihilation if not striking. In his WWDC keynote, Steve Jobs likened the architecture of the iPhone 4 to that of a "beautiful, old Leica camera," and as we've said before, he wasn't off the mark. Instead of hewing to the curved, plasticky, silver-bezeled attending of the iPhone 3G and 3GS, the aggregation has angry the case and face of the accessory into article absolutely added abundant and sophisticated.

The iPhone 4 is fabricated up of three basal parts: two pieces of smooth, adequate glass, and a stainless animate bandage which wraps about the sides, top, and basal of the phone. We can't enlarge how high-end the architecture of the iPhone 4 is. The behind of the buzz is fabricated from the aforementioned affectionate of ultra-strong bottle as the front, disconnected alone by the new bristles megapixel camera, its LED beam accompaniment and, of course, the Apple logo. Overall, the iPhone 4 outclasses appealing abundant every smartphone on the bazaar in agreement of automated design. It's not aloof the face of the buzz that's undergone a transformation, the iPhone 4 is all new central as well. It's absolutely faster, but the 3GS wasn't affliction on acceleration to our eyes, so it's not as berserk apparent a bound as the 3G to the 3GS.
Apple has fabricated the stainless bandage about the buzz about a brace of big antennae, and they assume to be accomplishing a appealing acceptable job at blind assimilate radio signals. Able-bodied in our testing, we had far, far beneath alone calls than we accomplished on our 3GS. Let's aloof say that again: yes, the iPhone 4 does assume to allay the alone alarm issue. By now you should apperceive that iPhone 4 has an all-new display, as well. Apple is calling the LED backlit, 960 x 640 IPS awning the "Retina Display" due to its aerial resolution and pixel density. Text in the Engadget app, for instance, looks cleaner, clearer, and abundant easier to apprehend on the new iPhone. The aggregation assuredly seems to be alert to a accessible that's absorbed in abrogation the point-and-shoot at home in favor of a buzz with a able camera, by abacus a bristles megapixel ballista to the behind of the iPhone 4 and a VGA camera up front.

In our approximation, the iPhone 4 is the best smartphone on the world  now. The aggregate of attractive new hardware, that amazing display, upgraded cameras, and above improvements to the operating arrangement accomplish this an acutely appalling package. Yes, there are still affliction credibility that we appetite to see Apple fix, and yes, there are some amazing alternatives to the iPhone 4 out there. But back it comes to the absolute amalgamation -- fit and accomplishment in both software and hardware, performance, app selection, and all of the little capacity that accomplish a accessory like this what it is -- we anticipate it's the chrism of the accepted crop. We won't altercate that a lot of this is a amount of aftertaste -- some bodies will aloof adopt the way Android or Symbian works to the iPhone, and others will be on the anchor for a accouterments keyboard or a accurate asset that the iPhone 4 lacks -- but in agreement of the absolute picture, it's boxy to abjure that Apple has confused one footfall accomplished the antagonism with this phone. Of course, in the hyper-accelerated smartphone bazaar area the Next Big Thing seems to consistently be aloof about the corner, it's anyone's assumption how continued they accumulate that edge.




For all the hype about Sony's Dash Personal Internet Viewer, a touch screen device that brings the Internet, in bite-sized nuggets, to your fingertips, it's basically a glorified alarm clock. It's a sleek package, but the Dash has some issues. Chumby apps are available to download on the Dash, and even Sony's My Dash Web site, where you personalize your content choices by syncing to services like Slacker, Pandora, and Netflix, not only references the Chumby, but ends up being a Chumby URL. Sony worked closely with the company while designing the Dash. In fact, the Dash seems, more or less, like a souped-up Chumby.
Video support should be included in a future update, and eventually, the Dash will support WMV 9, Microsoft VC-1, and MPEG 4.10/H.264 video files. Getting the Dash up and running is a breeze, but for one minor issue. Sony's Dash Web site is where you select apps for your device; there are well over 1,000 apps in categories like Games, Humor, Lifestyle, Webcams, and even Weird. To truly customize your music on the Dash, for example, you need to organize and sync your info with various services like Slacker and Pandora through Sony's Dash Web site on a computer (there's no browser on the Dash itself). My thinking: If I need a laptop to tweak the content on my Dash, I'm tempted to just stay on the laptop. The Dash, like the Chumby, merely feeds you bite-sized morsels of the Internet. Sure, the Dash has Facebook and Twitter apps, and you can even tap into your Netflix account and view Watch Instantly titles. But why, when you have other devices that are more portable and have more robust Internet capabilities than the Dash?
There are Slacker and Pandora Internet radio apps but audio doesn't even sound that great through the Dash's speakers, though you could pop in a pair of headphones. While it rarely stuttered while streaming over Wi-Fi, the size of the video is not as large as the Dash's small screen—leaving a useless border around its edges. One thing the Dash does really well: It's a fantastic alarm clock. For $100 or so, I'd be singing the Dash's praises if it basically did just that.
·  Pros
Sleek design with bright touch screen. Excellent alarm clock features. Mainstream apps like Facebook and Slacker Radio work well. All apps are free.
·  Cons
Overall product concept seems a bit flawed. Scope and abilities of apps is limited. Not very portable since it needs to be plugged in.





SonicGear Evo 5 Platinum is the successor to the previous series, namely  SonicGear Evo 5. Judging from the side of design ,Evo 5 Platinum still using wood materials ,but now with a layer of metal on the front of its subwoofer and tweeter .

Feature graph display will be retained with a change in which, now no longer display graphics to the rhythm of the music played bass.

When testing, we had difficulty to adjust the high voice and bass, since there are no indicators to determine how much volume and bass settings are used. From the design may look nice, but from the user experience it was difficult.

These speakers are capable of playing various musical genres well. Sound output at the low, mid, and able to come out with a natural high. One thing that was disturbing is that when a high volume, the sound is becoming broken and not round. In addition, the absence of treble settings button, sharpness good sound. Lack of this feature a little relieved by the presence of FX mode.

 
Popcorn Hour A-200 or so called the PCHA -200 is a development version of a previous version PCH C - 200 from the same manufacturer .

Buffalo External  Hard Drive Released encrypted In Indonesia, this artefact comes from 320GB up to 1TB with a assurance for three years. Buffalo Inc., one of the accumulator media industry players and multimedia solutions, has launched a carriageable USB 2.0 adamantine drive in the ranks MiniStation HD-DXT able with TurboPC and TurboCopy. Both of these appearance serves to bifold the acceleration of abstracts alteration standards and assure the accessory from shocks. This is additionally accessible on the adamantine deejay 256-bit AES ability able of accouterments encryption automatically. "MiniStation HD-DXT brings added alteration speeds up to alert as much," said Toshi Sato, Country Manager, Buffalo Inc., in his testimony, Friday, August 6, 2010. "There is additionally aegis adjoin shocks, automated accouterments encryption, and administration of resources," he said.  In accession to these two appearance top seed, there is additionally a new affection alleged ECO Manager (HD can automatically save action burning by axis off the ability HD if not acclimated aural a assertive aeon and will be activated automatically if no activity) alfresco of the advantageous appearance that can we accommodated on the antecedent series.

For information, AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) is a aegis accepted that was originally acclimated by the government of the United States and began to be acclimated about throughout the world. This accepted was aboriginal appear by the National Institute of Standards and Technology in November 2001 afterwards confined for five-year acclimation process.

In its 6th address of this (not realized, this one achievement has entered the 6th generation),  Apple iPod Nano about-face the complete shape. Interface button on the iPod Nano is removed and replaced with Multitouch interface. Yes, Apple afflicted the iPod Nano so that it becomes a affectionate of mini adjustment of the iPod Touch. With abuttals 46% allay and 42% lighter than anterior generations, this latest iPod Nano does accessory different. Added actualization board clip-on (just like the iPod Shuffle), FM Radio, Nike +, and pedometer. But don't abnormality the nano for a scaled bottomward iPod touch; the nano appears to run some adjustment of iOS, Apple's iPhone, iPod draft and iPad operating system, but its a altered acutely belted adjustment compared to the abounding fat iOS 4 activate on the touch. You can't buy and install third action apps, for example, and there are far below applications, and no Wi-Fi.

What's akin added hasty is that the adeptness to ball or accomplish videos (one of aftermost year's nano's best acclimatized features) has been removed altogether, accurate the new nano an audio-only device. Even Apple claims a arrangement action of up to 24 hours playback aback its lithium-ion batteries can board you with up to 24 hours of amaranthine music.

Comparing the new nano to aftermost year's archetypal we can't advice but feel that we're missing out on something. While Apple has accustomed us multi-touch with one hand, it has taken abroad the adeptness to comedy and almanac video with the other, while charging is £21 added for the trouble.

A video-capable 8GB iPod blow is alone £30 added expensive, and with an iPod blow you get admission to the bags of apps attainable on Apple's App Store.

If Apple capital to argue us that demography video playback abroad from the nano in barter for multi-touch was a fair accord again it bare to accommodate some array of nano App Store, or at atomic array a few added apps with the nano above the simple Clock, Radio, Photos and Fitness apps you get by default.

As it stands, the new nano performs affably as a accessory absolutely for alert to audio, provided you advance in some new headphones, but it feels unnecessarily bound in added areas.

IPod Nano is attainable in seven bloom options the bulk abuttals of USD $ 149 for the 8GB version
and USD $ 179 for the 16GB version.
