Etch A Sketch clock automatically draws, redraws time
Filed under: Misc. Gadgets
Automating Etch A Sketch units to pull off all sorts of mesmerizing tricks is certainly not new, but angelabuilds' beautifully created Etch A Sketch clock truly is a notch above the rest. Reportedly, it was built upon the Arduino platform and obviously references a few other EAS masterpieces, but we really can't think of a better wall clock for the true geek. Click on through to check out a video of the unit drawing 11:41 and moving on to 11:42 -- seriously, watching the seconds tick away has never been more riveting.[Via

Lockdown 1.0 encrypts data with OpenSSL

En-Twyn's En-Compass incorporates Powerline into socket

CeBIT and Powerline seem to have a thing for one another, and sure enough, this year we're seeing yet another firm storm onto the scene in an attempt to advance the flagging technology. London-based En-Twyn set up shop in Germany to showcase its En-Compass, which doesn't require any special wall cutouts and differs from most other Powerline systems by packing its electronics on the backside. In other words, you won't have any unsightly adapters protruding from the front. Beyond that, everything else works as expected -- Ethernet signals travel over y

Video: GPS-Workaraound für iPod touch
Apple gestattet es Entwicklern voerst nicht, über den Dockanschluss mit dem iPhone bzw. dem iPod touch verbundene Geräte softareseitig anzuspreichen. Von daher dürfte auch das von Gomite angekündigte GPS-Modul zum aufstecken noch ein Weilchen auf sich warten lassen. Die Company hat aber bereits eine Alternative auf Lager: Den LocoGPS Wi-Fi Mobile Navigation Server.
Das kleine Kästchen in Größe eines Feuerzeugs birgt einen GPS-Empfänger, einen Webserver und einen Wi-Fi-Sender und übermittelt über eine feste IP-Adresse aktuelle Navigationsinfos und -anweisungen drahtlos an einen Webbrowser - so zum Beispiel das iPhone oder der iPod touch.

iPhone: Exchange? Great, but what about Google Apps?
As an IT Administrator that is happily "exchanging" my headache of Active Directory/ Exchange server knowledge in for a company that wants to move to Google Apps, I am surprised that Apple has forgot its best buddy, Google - at least for the time being.
The SDK announcement yesterday included no reference to Google Apps working on the iPhone. While I've been using IMAP to check my Google Apps Email for awhile now (at push-like 1 minute intervals), it is a bit of a pain to connect to the Calendar and Addressbook through the EDGE web interface. I would much prefer to use the native apps like Exchange now can.

Analysis: RIM's limited iPhone fight-back options
Research In Motion (RIM) isn't taking Apple's move into the enterprise market it dominates without a fight. The company has confirmed plans to push back with the introduction of social networking and entertainment features.
Right.
As part of the push, RIM has reached a deal with Black Eyed Peas' artist, Will.i.am, to make that artist's content and online community Dipdive available on the BlackBerry. (Will.i.am was also behind Barack Obama’s successful “Yes We Can” video.) The company introduced Facebook software for its smartphones last autumn.
RIM's in a fix. Apple's introduction of Exchange support means core Blackberry customers have a choice of devices, and with the iPhone offering extra value in terms of screen real estate, iPod and other sexy features, the Blackberr

Eurocom's M860TU Montebello 15.4-inch laptop rocks the Centrino 2

In case you missed it, it was Eurocom's Phantom-X that managed to swipe that "fastest tested laptop" mark from the MacBook Pro last year -- and totally ruin a perfectly good commercial. Now the company is back for more with the M860TU Montebello 15.4-incher. We'll have to wait for the benchmarks to see how this one stacks up against the recent crop of Penryn laptops, but what's new here is that the Centrino 2 "Montevina" chipset is under the hood, which should support faste

iPhone SDK torrent on the Internet
We don't condone torrenting stuff or bypassing Apple's $99-$199 charge for developing iPhone applications but thought it would be prudent to report that the iPhone SDK is now floating around the torrent sites. The DMG file weighs in at 2.1 GB and is the real deal we can confirm.
If you actually are successful in developing an application with this, you will be forced to pay Apple the normal price before they publish the application on their site, one must assume.

Bald neue iMacs und Mac minis mit Penryn-CPUs?
Am 26. Februar stellte Apple neue MacBook- und MacBook-Pro-Modelle auf Basis von Intels neuen Penryn-Prozessoren vor. Diese werden nicht mehr in 65nm, sondern im kleineren 45nm Fertigungsprozess hergestellt und verbrauchen weniger Strom. Für Notebooks sicherlich ein wichtiges Kriterium. Es ist nur eine Frage der Zeit bis Apple auch seine anderen Rechner, vor allem den iMac und den Mac mini mit der neuen Prozessorgeneration ausstattet. Laut MacScoop soll das gar nicht mehr so lange dauern.

Buchtipp: iPhone Missing Manual auf Deutsch
Wer David Pogues My Way-Parodie I want an iPhone noch nicht gesehen hat, sollte dies schleunigst nachholen. Der US-Journalist schreibt eine wöchentliche Technikkolumne in der New York Times und hat die Buchreihe »The Missing Manual« ins Leben gerufen, in der unter anderem auch das "inoffizielle" Handbuch für das iPhone erschienen ist.
Das Buch erläutert den kompletten Funktionsumfang des iPhone mit Witz und Kompetenz. Auf 304 Seiten werden sämtliche Funktionen und Einstellungen von Grund auf und reichlich illustriert erklärt. Die Übesetzung und Anpassung an die deutschen Verhältnisse, inklusive aller mit dem Januar-Update hinzugekommenen Funktionen, ist übrigens hier in der iFUN-Redaktion entstanden.
