ClarionMiND : The Next Generation Navigation Device

The Intel Atom processor that is currently used in the netbook industry due to its small size and its relatively powerful processor, opened a lot of opportunities for device makers from different industries to create more powerful devices that are smaller, more efficient and generally better. Clarion Mind is a product of this ingenuity.

Being a leading company for audio and navigation, this device can surely bring you to your destination stress-free and accurately. Detailed maps of US and Canada are included. This can ensure that what you see in the road is the same in the device. In the event that you don’t happen to live within US or Canada, the ClarionMiND can uses Google Maps so that wouldn’t be a problem.

A full Firefox browser is also included that can render web pages that looks exactly the same as what you can see in your computer. MySpace, YouTube, Weather, News, RealPlayer, Email, and Portal Sync for software updates applications are included in the interface that are pretty much straightforward. Other applications are PDF Reader, Contacts, Calculator, and Notepad in case that you need them.

The specs are: 4.8″ LCD Touch Screen display, 800MHz Intel Atom processor, 512MB DDR2 ram, WiFi, Bluetooth, USB connection, built-in speakers, and SD expansion slot.

Though it has good features, the ClarionMiND can only be up for 1.5 hours which is really bad when you want to use its multimedia features away from the car, and the 4.8″ display is a relatively small screen which can strain your eyes if you plan to read e-books or browse sites for long periods of time.

e-Loam F7 netbook

Do you feel that a netbook is still too big for you? Or is it maybe that you want to have a cool looking device that you can bring around that can really fit in your pocket? Then the e-Loam F7 might be the gadget for you.

Produced by Shenzen e-Loam Technology Company, the e-Loam F7 has a 7 inch touch screen TFT LCD, 1.2GHz Via C7 processor, 1GB DDR2 memory, 8GB hard disk capacity, 0.3megapixel web camera, Bluetooth, WiFi, and 2 in 1 memory card reader.

Specs wise, this netbook isn’t a performance type as what we can see coming out from big name manufacturers. But, this is rather a netbook which is designed to be just portable. The 8GB of hard drive space won’t be much after installing Windows XP but it would be more than enough to store all your documents, spread sheets or presentations. The processor seems to be sufficient for light usage as it is the same with the old HP Mini but running demanding applications on this machine might be quite slow. Take note that this netbook doesn’t have a physical keyboard so typing documents isn’t recommended.

Overall, the e-Loam F7 netbook isn’t for everybody as what netbooks are in general. If you want to do ultra portable computing but still want to do a little bit of photoshop or play your HD videos then choose a more powerful netbook. But, it you want a netbook where you could just practice your presentation, maybe watch a couple of videos or do some editing to your documents while on the road, then the F7 is the netbook for you.

Analog TV signals no more

The United States Congress has already laid out plans to have the transition from analog television broadcasting to digital television a.k.a. DTV.

By February 17, 2009 all broadcasters are required to convert their programming to digital television programming thus analog signals will completely be gone. This is a great idea, considering that our televisions are not getting better and better, but some low-tech televisions would need to have some upgrading in order to enjoy this new technology. These equipments are just easy to install to analog televisions. You just need to purchase a converter box that would then convert the digital broadcasting signal to a format that your low-tech television could display. But, of course, if you could afford to buy a digital television then you’d get to enjoy viewing digitalized channels even more.


Don’t be confused about DTV and HDTV as both don’t necessarily mean the same thing. HDTVs can display digital broadcasting but DTVs can’t display the highest quality of the digital broadcasting that only the HDTV could.


So whether or not you have an HDTV or a DTV, by February 17 of 2009 you would fully enjoy a much better TV signal like never before. Prepare yourself for this, you still have months to prepare!

Palm Pre

A few years back, Palm revolutionized the way we use smartphones and how we manage our life using a very efficient personal information management. Now, after years of waiting, Palm introduced another innovation with their Palm Pre.

The Palm Pre is dubbed as Palm’s last hope to make a comeback in the very competitive smartphone market as their Treo smartphones are quickly losing against the competitors. Their latest Treo Pro is based on Windows Mobile thus making it not much of a news-maker though its great aesthetics can be commended. Palm’s Pre is the first to have the new Palm webOS operating system that is something that is at par of its competitors if not ahead and is capable of multitasking, very nice looking and very fast too!

The Palm Pre has 802.11b / g WiFi, integrated GPS, 3.1 inch 320×480 HVGA display, physical qwerty keyboard that is similar to their Treo line, POP and IMAP email, 3 megapixel camera with LED flash, ambient sensor, proximity sensor, accelerometer, WiFi, bluetooth, 8gb of user storage and compatibility with the new Palm Touchstone charging dock.

The effect of Palm releasing the new operating system and smartphone is immediately felt as Palm shares went up 35 percent closing at $4.45.

Yes, Binary can be cool too

Everyone who understands binary will probably understand how to tell the time instantly, but those who don’t have any idea of the Base-2 number system will still be able to tell the time, provided they read the included manual.

Now you might be asking, who would want this? Believe me when I say there are a lot of people out there who’d buy this watch with no hesitation. Sheldon and company from the television show Big Bang Theory, for example, would probably shell out money just to own one.

For the price of $69.99 it’s a steal. Just imagine the benefits you’ll reap from wearing this watch. If you still haven’t mastered reading binary, you’ll be a 0 & 1 master in no time.

Firefox 3 download record now official

Mozilla has officially made history with a new Guinness world record for the largest number of software downloads in a 24-hour period. The final record breaking 8,002,530 downloads for Firefox 3.0 took place in June with parties in over 25 countries. “The enthusiasm and creativity of Firefox fans was key to making this happen” said Marketing head Paul Kim. Gareth Deaves of Guinness World Records called it “an extremely impressive accomplishment”. The official figure was confirmed after logs from download servers were audited and checked to ensure duplicate and unfinished downloads were not counted. Marketing manager Mary Colvig said no party is planned to celebrate the record until the actual certificate is presented by Guinness World Records in London next week.

The company said while IE reached a record low last month, it predicted Firefox will break the 20% share bar sometime this month. Mr Kim said “We offer the best browsing experience and this shows people are getting the message and voting with their browser choice.” Meanwhile Mozilla has shipped a high priority update for Firefox 2.0, warning that there are at least five serious vulnerabilities that could lead to code execution attacks. Mr Kim said Mozilla will continue to support Firefox 2.0 until the middle of December.

After all, if you're able to plunk down enough cash for 150 inches of plasma screen, you can probably afford to build a whole new house around it once it's been delivered.

Panasonic's 150-inch Advanced High Definition Plasma Display, shown here with a 6' 3" Panasonic booth rep.

Concept Gadgets - Apple iPhone With Physical Mini Keyboard

Product innovation is the driving force behind new technologies and the latest gadgets and Mat Brady from Planetmat thought what would it be like to have an Apple iPhone Pro with a physical mini keyboard? Of course, Apple doesn’t offer this cool feature, so what you’re looking at below is his concept design of a mock up iPhone with a physical mini keyboard.

Many consumers appreciate the simplicity and compactness of the virtual keyboard that Apple currently offers, but I’m sure there are some that would appreciate options.
Will Apple ever offer this as an option? You never know, large companies are always interested in constructive feedback and are trying to design products that the marketplace wants so as to capture a larger share of the market.
If Apple were not to offer this physical mini keyboard, it may be something a third party vendor may look at creating as an iPhone addon. For now however, it remains a cool concept gadget.

The new digital camcorders are the HDR-H80 and HDR-H90 which will use HDDs, while the SDR-S26 will rely on SD cards. The interesting feature of these camcorders has to be the high optical zoom which will be an impressive 70x.
Where you’ll find a use of such an insane amount of optical zoom is anyone’s guess, but how about some close up video of a man eating lion if you ever get a chance to go on an African lion safari.
One of the challenges with high optical zoom is the shaking that gets introduced with even the slightest hand tremor. As such, Panasonic has included advanced Optical Image Stabilization (O.I.S.) as well as proprietary Intelligent Auto (iA) technologies into these devices.
The Panasonic camcorders are expected to retail between $330-$450 depending upon the model selected.

Microsoft Removes Limits For The Free Windows 7 Beta Download

Originally, Microsoft announced that their free beta windows 7 download would be restricted to 2.5 million downloads, after which, the public offering would end.

The demand for Windows 7 beta was huge and this resulted in high traffic to the Microsoft Windows download site, which ultimately brought the webpage down.
Microsoft spent the weekend in damage control mode, adding additional hardware infrastructure to get the site back up. However, as a good will gesture, Microsoft has lifted the download limits. Anyone interested in trying Windows 7 for free will be able to do so. You will have the next two weeks (until January 24th) to download a free copy. Just remember that this is a beta copy and will probably have some software bugs, so Microsoft recommends using it on a spare workstation pc or dual booting Windows 7 with your main OS.

Hello Kitty Laptop “Proof the PC Generation is Getting Younger Everyday”

This year three companies have launched a Hello Kitty Laptop. In October, NEC launched a Vista notebook featuring the Hello Kitty design. In November, Onkyo Japan introduced the Sotec C1 Hello Kitty “netbook”. December 10, Epson will distribute their Hello Kitty Laptop with an Intel Celeron CPU, 1GB memory, 80GB hard drive, and a 15.4 inch WXGA screen. It is also equipped with WiFi capability, Windows Vista, a DVD drive, and is modified with Hello Kitty wallpaper, screensavers, and icons. This design definitely makes a statement about what age group they are marketing.

As the world becomes more automated, and the internet becomes a larger part of our society, it makes sense to design laptops for children. Toy manufacturers have produced learning tools that are similar to laptops in design and style but were not fully functional. Japan took the step of putting actual computers into the hands of preschoolers. The software available for preschoolers is enormous, the amount of pre-education children can get from a computer is endless, this idea turns an awesome piece of technology into a fun toy.

With the technology of a pc and the marketing strategy for children we could see an increase in our children’s overall education. If children start school already computer literate it would help schools integrate computer lab programs for younger students. There are better job opportunities for those with technological knowledge, especially computer literacy. If we start teaching children about computers at the preschool level we can only improve their chances later in life.

Sony Cybershot G3: The WiFi Camera

Using a point and shoot camera is very common nowadays, especially for people who just want to capture moments in a snap. Sharing the pictures with your friends is another must among amateur photographers. This can be somehow cumbersome for lazy people (like me), since the pictures still need to be transferred from the camera to the computer, then uploaded to an image hosting site of choice.

The recently introduced Sony Cybershot G3 eliminates the need for the “middle man”, or in this case - the computer, for you to upload your images to the internet. Because the G3 is the only digicam that is equipped with its own WiFi capability! Photos and videos can be uploaded straightaway to Shutterfly, Picasa, YouTube, Dailymotion, and Photobucket.

Of course, let’s not forget that the G3 is a camera too - and a good one in fact. It has a 10 megapixel CCD, 4x optical zoom Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar lens, 3.5″ LCD screen with Xtra Fine LCD technology that enables it to display high definition quality on such a small screen, 4GB of internal memory which is basically 1000 full resolution images or 4000 VGA quality ones. The G3 is also slim about 3/4 of an inch thick and the sliding mechanism looks great too.

All of Sony’s software enhancements are built in the camera, such as the Smile Shutter Capability to capture images when everybody is smiling, Dynamic Range Optimizer which chooses best settings for the given environment, face detection technology, Intelligent Scene Recognition and Optical Steady Shot for blur free images.

The Sony Cybershot G3 can already be purchased for $499.99 and comes only in black.

Logitech G19 Gaming Keyboard

In the arena of gaming keyboards, everyone likes it a little different. In my opinion, I have an extreme aversion to the ones that have the gaming piece separated from the rest of the keyboard. Which is why for gamers, it’s important to find the proper tools that work well for your virtual battles. Well Logitech released an innovative gaming keyboard within their G-series product line up.

The G19 keyboard, of course, offers backlighted keys (which seems to be a prerequisite in the midst of gaming keyboards). It also provides a 320 x 240 pixel color GamePanel LCD that you can tilt.

Thus the user won’t have to back farther away when taking huge group shots, or ask the subjects to pack closer together. For nature lovers, you could take wider landscape views without having to exclude some parts of it. The HZ10W has 10.2 megapixel CCD and 10x optical zoom (yeah 10x!). This will definitely be a great plus when capturing up-close moments in concert halls. You could also use the mega zoom capability if you want to spy on someone, or think you can find a career in taking paparazzi shots. Haha!

Both optical and digital image stabilization are present in the camera, to ensure blur- free images. Shutter speed, focus, exposure and ISO can also be manually adjusted, which is definitely good for some amateur point-and-shoot photography.

Other functions are available such as Smile Shot, face recognition, Blink Detection, 13 scene modes for different situations, and the Beauty Shot which will even out skin tone and remove blemishes.

Kodak's $1,000 photoframe

CES 2009 is full of so many goodies and gadgets that you soon begin to lose interest after seeing one stunning 50in LCD followed by another.

What would I buy as a purely impulse purchase if I won the lottery, is something that I've been musing when walking around the show floor bringing stories to the page.

One of the items would have to be Kodak's OLED-driven, wireless photo frame that currently retails for a staggering $999.

Whilst not disarming with respect to aesthetics, the 7.6in screen features an 800x480 (16:9) panel. Nothing really surprising about that. The magic is with the OLED technology that delivers a pin-sharp picture and perfect viewing angle that would put any LED-based display to shame.

The picture, above, doesn't do it a shred of justice; you have to up close and personal to see the vivid the colours appear, to the extent that it's almost painful to look at for extended periods.

Kodak reckons the screen has a 36,000:1 contrast ratio and it's easy to believe for once.

Adding to the bling factor are bezel-mounted buttons that aren't immediately obvious. Touch the bezel and the frame lights up.

For what it's worth, the OLED frame has a 2GB internal memory and wireless ability to pull pictures from a PC or to access content online from sites such as Flickr and the FrameChannel.

OLED technology is simply too expensive to be a value proposition anytime soon, especially as larger panels are required, but, boy, do they look good.

Let's put $1,000 on black and see if it comes up trumps.

Need a Ride? Tap your iPhone

Soon you may no longer need to stick out your thumb to catch a ride. Instead, you may get one by tapping your fingers on your iPhone.

When the program is available, drivers who want to offer rides will first download the application, then record their preffered route, said Sean O’Sullivan, MD of Avego and Executive Chairman of Mapflow, Avego’s parent company, based in Dublin. “You put the iPhone on the dashboard, and records the entire trip and sends the route to our network,” he said. The system stores the route, adding it to it’s menu of paths and pick-up points and offering them and offering them autometically to interested riders.

Drivers must have an iPhone in order to use the service, but if passengers don’t, they still will be able to look for a ride in Avego’s website or call or send a text message, O’Sullival said. Drivers and riders can identify one another by photographs displayed on their iPhones, as well as by PINs that verify identities and authorize the transaction.

Avego will charge 30 cents a mile, he said, with 85% going to the driver to recover some of the commuting costs and 15% to the company. All payments will be handled by automated online accounting. It will take a while to establish the critical mass of drivers and passengers, O’Sullivan acknowledged. But he hopes that the chance to defray expenses will change the entrenched habits of many drivers who tresure their solitude.

“It will require behaviour changes on the part of drivers and riders,” he said.

(Powermat) Charge your gadgets wirelessly

For the past three years, every CES show has dangled the promise of wireless charging products. But we haven't seen these power chargers become widely available.

This year Powermat says it is closer than ever to the finish line. At CES 2009, the company announced a line of products for home, travel and work use that could charge from three to four devices on a single mat. The Powermat can charge iPods, iPhone, other mobile phones and even a laptop.

Powermat uses the principle of magnetic induction to deliver wireless power. Users plug in their Powermat to an electrical outlet and can then place their devices on the mat to charge--which means there are two parts to the system, the mat and the magnetic cases/docks that are attached behind each device.

In its true sense the Powermats aren't completely wireless since the device just goes on a mat that is plugged in. Think of it as a better-looking Power Squid. But when Powermat's technology is built into kitchen countertops and walls, it could potentially be more true to its name.

The mats in white and black finish are priced at $100 and the cases/docks for each individual device will cost $30.

The Pogoplug

Last night at the ShowStoppers event, the Gadgetell crew was frantically running around looking for something unique to highlight, and it seems that something instead found us, which came courtesy of an very enthusiastic booth representative. The product is called the Pogoplug and it allows the user to hook up an external hard drive via a USB connection and then be able to access that content from anywhere you may be.

While I have not set this up myself, judging from what we were told, it is very simple to get up and running. Simply plug the device into the wall, plug in an Ethernet cable and external USB drive and you are all set. After than the data is accessable through Windows Explorer or the Mac Finder. Honestly, I cannot wait to get some hands-on time because it almost sounds like it is to easy.

Additionally, the Pogoplug is compatible with both a Mac or PC, and can use Firefox, Chrome, Safari, IE and Opera. They also have an iPhone app that is available in the App Store. Though nothing was mentioned as to when we can expect this, they did mention that some backup, priniting and file syncronizarion options were coming.

The Pogoplug is currently available online, and is selling (as a preorder special) for $79. No mention on how long the preorder special is valid until, however after that time the price is going to go up, but not by very much.
