Mitsumi haptic input device could enable one-handed mobile operation
Filed under: Cellphones, Displays, Handhelds
If you're frustrated with how difficult it is to control your touchscreen-based mobile with just one hand, Mitsumi clearly feels your pain. At a recent presentation, the outfit highlighted a new haptic input device that would ideally be situated on the rear of a handset / PMP and enable users to activate applications without having to use another hand to do so. The device consists of "a sheet with small protrusions, a resistance sensitive touch pad and switches," and while the prototype was a tad unsightly, the f

Leica's CEO removed from power
Filed under: Digital CamerasWithout any definitive rhyme nor reason, it appears that Leica's CEO, Steven K. Lee, has been "removed from power by the company's supervisory board." Reportedly, Mr. Lee has been replaced by the firm's owner and board chairman Andreas Kaufman, who will run the company jointly with board financial controller and treasurer, Andreas Lobejäger, until later this month. Interestingly, we're not told who will pick up the reins permanently after that -- nor exactly why the decision was made -- but we suppose it's only a matter of hours before we find

Japan launches Kizuna satellite, hopes it will deliver high-speed internet
Filed under: Networking
Granted, most of us here in America would turn our noses up at receiving in-home broadband via satellite -- after all, cable and DSL seem to be treating most of us quite alright -- but Japan is hoping to provide access to more regions in Asia-Pacific with its recently launched Kizuna. The experimental satellite is not yet intended for commercial use, but if all goes well, it will enable data transmissions "of up to 1.2 gigabytes per second" at a low cost across Japan and 19 other locales in Southeast Asia. Unfortunately, we've no idea when it will escape the bondage of testing and actually be put to good use, but at least Japan's well on its way to actually establ

Your next Sony LCD TV may actually be a Sharp

If you'll recall, Samsung announced plans last November to expand an 8G LCD plant sans Sony -- now, Reuters is reporting that Sony is aiming to start procuring LCD TV panels from Sharp, possibly within the next business year. Apparently, the deal with Sharp would allow it to "secure enough panels to meet fast-growing LCD TV demand without heavy capital investments,"

Bluetooth-Hack für iPod 5G geschafft
Bis auf den iPod touch versteht sich kein einziger von Apples Musikspielern auf die Drahtlosschnittstelle Bluetooth, ohne von zusätzlichen Adaptern Gebrauch zu machen. Mit letzteren ist es etwa möglich, Musik drahtlos vom Computer zum iPod und umgekehrt zu streamen - genau das, was der iPhone-Hacker "fstedie" so gerne tun würde. Doch ein externes Zusatzgerät ist ihm zu klobig, weshalb er lieber selbst ein Bluetooth-Modul in den iPod einbaut. Nachdem ihm dies bereits mit einem iPod der vierten Generation gelungen ist, glückte ihm der den Hack nun auch bei einem 5G-iPod.

Keine Chipsätze von Nvidia für Intels Nehalem?

Damit wäre Nvidia nicht in der Lage, eigenen Chipsätze für Intels kommende Nehalem-Prozessoren, die ab Herbst erwartet werden, zu produzieren.

Green Freedom turns the air's CO2 into auto-powering fuel
Tired of the air not doing enough for you? Well, a new project called Green Freedom -- headed up by researchers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory -- seeks to improve air's contribution to our planet. The new technology would provide a method of extracting CO2 from the air and then converting the gas into fuel for cars or airplanes -- thus sucking out toxins from our atmosphere while creating a renewable energy source. The process uses a form of electrochemical separation to siphon juice out of the typically poisonous gas, yet has a low environmental impact with a small waste-stream output. The plan calls for the use of existing plants, which will stem the need to build new facilities, enabling the environmental footprint to remain relatively small. Clearly, it's n

DIY IR headgear repels security cameras, attracts "security"
Filed under: Misc. Gadgets
It's not the first method we've seen for blinding security cameras, but this new DIY / art project from the folks at Oberwelt e.V. looks to be one of the simplest, and one of the few that could conceivably be used on an everyday basis. Dubbed the I-R.A.S.C. (for "infra-redlight against surveillance camera"), the device apparently consists simply of a series of infrared lights connected to a battery, which combine to blot out your face with a slightly unnerving glow. Needless to say, while it appears to hide your identity quite effectively, it doesn't exactly sc

Neben der Geschwindigkeit, der Akkulaufzeit und dem Design ist beim Notebook sicherlich auch die Hitzeentwicklung nicht zu unterschätzen. Als mobiler Begleiter wäre es nicht gerade gut, sich an dem Gerät zu verbrennen, wenn man es beispielsweise auf den Beinen liegen hat. Auch die Wärmeentwicklung von Apples neuestem Notebook, dem MacBook Air, gilt es so zu untersuchen.

Beachcomber 9600 GT
During the last 48h in the PC world they have been continually testing and praising the new range of NVidia card, the Geforce 9600 GT.
This card will be priced at 150 euros and will in effect be the new reference with its ratio of performance/price.
At most it is only 20% less powerful than the more expensive 8800 GT which risks being overshadowed by this new offering.
AMD will react with a substantial price cut on its equivalent - but less powerful cards.
Of course this card is far in advance of the Radeon X2600 XT which looks like a toy in comparison.
It would be desirable given the problems met with the Mac Pro with the X2600 XT that Apple relaxes it rule and re-adds the 9600 to the catalogue.
PS Note that the Mac Pro ordered with the 8800 GT option are now delivered in a couple of days.
