In hand grip with Verizon LG Versa Game Pad


Verizon's Game Pad
The Versa LG VX9600 for Verizon Wireless phone can be used to switch from the usual back to the keyboard and various controllers. Mobile phones equipped with QWERTY keyboard, and early this month into the game pad is available. Versa game pad can make one of the top mobile phone gaming in the world, if he can compete dancukup support the game.

Versa the game pad is sliding back that, when closed, the Versa as a thick candy-bar-style touch screen phone. Slide the bottom of the pad, though, and you get some school-Nintendo-style control: eight-way rocker with a start, select, A, B, X and Y buttons. Phone's UI to rotate in landscape mode when you open the sliding pad, home phone and get a special screen mode with large buttons to start the game from you. This gadget requires no batteries, and you can replace them with plain or QWERTY keyboard back whenever you want.
I spent a morning with the Versa's gamepad, download games off of Verizon's deck and try to play. 10 games that I download, only three worked well with the game pad: Need for Speed Undercover, Pac-Man and Monopoly Here & Now.

Play Need for Speed with the game pad was the best driving game-experience I've ever had on the phone. There is no confusion when a small action that you usually get to play games on a mobile phone - driving a smooth and easy. I am disappointed to find that the game does not make any use of the A / B / X / Y buttons, though.
One other game, Galaga, I use my game pad to move to the sky but does not fire the laser. Six other games I choose: Build-a-Lot, Sims 2 Castaways, Star Trek, Prince of Persia, Dirt Off Road Racing Deluxe BlockBreaker and not even to play in landscape mode, game pad make totally useless. Annoyingly, there's no way to know if the game work with the pad before you buy.

Verizon spokeswoman Brenda Raney said that more games will be available soon. I hope so; controller even in the world will be useless if there is no game to play with it! The LG Versa Game Controller costs $ 29.99 on the Verizon Wireless Web site.

Slimmer with the Eee PC 1008HA in hand


Slabs that are less interesting as a plastic mass formed in the netbook market, and also the design-thinking outside more often in the name of fresh-beat price basis. Not so with the new Asus EeePC 1008HA.

In appearance, all of which is the 1008HA that EeePC 1000HE not. although still with a frame made of plastic, it looks thinner and lighter than the 1000HE maintain 10-inches wide and 92-percent keyboard.At first glance, the 1008HA is quite interesting and beautiful. Beda with 1000HE, there is less bulk in the middle of the frame, and shiny white plastic to create more uniformity along the edges (where the lid meets the bottom). With the easy steps below and inch thick weighs only 2.4 pounds, making them the lightest the 10-inch netbook, the 1000HE tips the scale at 3.2 pounds. At launch, the 1008HA will be available in black, pink and blue while the model will ship later in the day.

While slimming down yourself, 1008HA managed to maintain 10-inch widescreen (shared with drab 1024-by-600 resolution) and 92-percent keyboard. Keyboard is very convenient for this type, although not as big a mouse button (or responsive) as those in 1000HE. With a focus on the design, though, Asus needs to pay more attention to the size of the keyboard. Netbooks such as the Samsung N120, the Samsung NC20, and Acer to come from the 11.6-inch netbook is equipped with full size keyboard. And as a 10-inch widescreen, it's just a matter of time before the 92-percent keyboard will be something of the past.

Although 10008HA not use the new features are useful, do it with the existing position with a different way to slim down on the chassis. VGA port is now a mini-USB port, you need to connect an external VGA dongle. Dongle is tucked away in the bottom of the laptop and can be easily retrieved to use this feature. Ethernet port that will be moved to the back of the right of the laptop, where the thick of the few rather than the rest of the frame. If not, you'll find two USB ports (one less than the 1000HE), a 160GB HDD (2.5 inches), headphone and microphone jack, and built-in 802.11n WiFi and Bluetooth.

Part identical with 1000HE's. It is rarely used to run 1.66-GHz Intel Atom N280 that on paper, slightly faster than the more popular 1.6Ghz Intel Atom N270. In real-world tests, however, differences in performance that is almost invisible. It comes with 1 GByte of DDR2 RAM, even upgrade to 2 GB will need to delete the entire back panel, which are held together by four screws (1000HE has a small, 1-screw panel that leads directly to a memory slot).

10008HA that Asus will be the first netbook to use non-removable battery. It's a 2-cell Lithium Polymer battery, the same type of technology used in Apple MacBook Air. Asus claims that up to 6 hours of battery life, but from experience I have to get much less than that. I'd say the lack of a 6-cell battery that only knock against EeePC 1008HA, and I am sure you will know how much longer the battery will get with you once I review the 1000HE unit arrived. Asus EeePC 1008HA starting from $ 429.

With hands on Fennec, Firefox for Windows Mobile

Fennec, the Firefox browser for Windows Mobile application, is the first mobile browser to embrace the idea of a strong third-party add-ons. But the browser itself is too slow than in the use of experimental

I loaded the CAB file to 9.1MB a Sprint HTC Touch Pro. Touch Pro, which is the only model of Windows Mobile Mozilla has been approved for use with Fennec for now, although the version of the browser running on the Nokia N810 Linux-based tablet computer.I found Fennec's user interface is confusing and difficult. The browser opens to the home page, with the address above, several key actions (back, forward, bookmark, and tools) on the right side, and the miniature image tab on the left side.

But each browser is different in the universe, that the "chrome" does not remain on-screen is only attached on the page edges, and you can scroll away from it. That means if you want to switch tabs, you have to scroll all the way to the top and left to do before. That is difficult.

Along with the tab, is the main innovation of Fennec add-ons, such as in Firefox. With the move to the Tools menu, you can choose from a variety of add-ons, add-ons that four recommended menu. They do useful things such as improving one type in the URL and let you tweet from your browser.

Fennec brings Firefox's Awesome Bar to your mobile phone, with a few bugs. When you start typing the URL into the address bar, the browser will try to suggest popular sites you may want to go to. He also appeared five search button at the bottom of the screen, which will let you search with Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Answers.com, and Creative Commons. Search field does not seem they can be adjusted, and some built-in Windows Mobile UI is actually overwrote the search button. Rough.

The browser seems to really make a relatively page using Firefox's Gecko engine, although some mangled fonts and spacing does not offer viewing options. I can not find a way to get the columns of the full screen view, for example, or switch between phone and PC-format-format version of the page. I can not even find out how to fit the page to display, even though twice tapping me on the move between two levels of zoom.

Fennec also painfully, unusably slow. You should be able to pan around pages with your finger, but more like stealing, wait five seconds, the pan. To be fair, Mozilla admitted that the browser is too slow to use right now-this is a technical preview.

Fennec's plug-in architecture is very interesting. But to be more quick and easy to use, there is no threat to Opera Mobile on Windows Mobile.
Fennec,

Intel Investing $12M in Graphics, Visual Computing Center

Intel is planning to invest up to $12 million in a new European research center dedicated to researching visual computing and graphics technology. The center will focus on projects ranging from games to medical imaging to how graphics can help accelerate financial transactions. Intel is also expected to soon release its graphics processors code-named Larrabee that will help Intel compete against Nvidia and AMD's ATI products.

Intel is investing up to $12 million to create a research center that will focus on developing new graphics and visual computing technology at a time when the entire PC industry is trying to create new types of graphics-intense applications.Intel Senior Fellow and CTO Justin Rattner announced the $12 million investment May 12. Intel plans to invest the money during the next five years to help build the Intel Visual Computing Institute, which will be located at Saarland University in Saarbrucken, Germany.

The goal of the center is to develop new types of PC hardware and software that will not only help in developing games but also help create other types of applications for fields such as health care and financial services.

While the announcement lacked specifics, Intel expressed particular interest in what it calls terascale research and technology. For Intel, this means using dozen and even hundreds of processing cores within a chip to improve the graphics and visual abilities of PCs.

This type of chip technology can also be used to create supercomputers and massive HPC (high-performance computing) systems that use multicore technology to solve problems in parallel instead of using older methods to simply crank up the clock speed of single-core processors.

"Given the growing importance of visual computing technology, it made perfect sense to expand our relationship and form this new institute," Rattner said in a statement. "We are confident that it will become an internationally recognized center and a driver for European leadership in the visual computing field."

If this approach to computing seems familiar, it's because Intel and its two main rivals in this area—Nvidia and Advanced Micro Devices—have been pushing this technology as an alternative to classic chip technology.

Later this year or in early 2010, Intel plans to finally unveil its "Larrabee" graphics processor, which will use multiple x86 cores and allow Intel and software developers to take advantage of new types of parallel computing.

Nvidia is also interested in this type of multicore approach and using parallel computing. In the last few years, Nvidia has pushed its own Tesla GPUs (graphics processing units) for this type of computing. In addition, Nvidia has developed a programming language called CUDA, which works as a parallel computing engine for Nvidia's GPUs. AMD, through its ATI graphics division, is at work on similar technology.

Intel's investment in the new facility in Germany, which the company says is now its largest investment ever in a European university, comes at a time when Intel is facing ongoing scrutiny concerning its business practices within the European Union. Later the week of May 11, the EU is expected to fine Intel millions, if not billions, of dollars, claiming the company unfairly used its position to push competition out of Europe's PC market.

Intel is hoping to employ dozens of workers at the new facility by the end of 2009, including its own researchers, as well as individuals from Saarland University, Max Planck Institute for Informatics, Max Planck Institute for

Mio Is Alive, Well, And Shipping New GPSes


We haven't seen anything new from Mio in the U.S. since parent company MiTAC purchased Magellan in December, 2008.

Last we heard, in fact, was in April, when the company responded to a GPS Business News article that it was leaving the U.S. market by insisting that no, it wasn't. Today we see proof of that, as Mio releases two new navigators for North America.

The Mio Moov S401 will offer a 4.3-inch screen, a 4 million POI database, and list for $179.99; the Mio Moov S501 will have a 4.7-inch screen, a 12 million POI database, and go for $199.99. Both will offer the company's new Spirit software which is designed to make search and navigation simple. These two can navigate to geo-tagged photos and will support keyword POI search, for when you don't know a destination's exact name.These look like smart additions to the lineup, offering big screens and useful features at bargain prices. Buyers have shown they're mostly interested in low-cost GPS navigators. While the U.S. market has grown increasingly competitive (Navigon just pulled out of the U.S. due to shrinking margins) we predict these units will find plenty of buyers when they're released in June.

Intel Fined $1.45 Billion in EU for Antitrust Violations

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Commission fined Intel Corp a record 1.06 billion euros ($1.45 billion) on Wednesday and ordered it to halt illegal rebates and other practices it used to squeeze out its rival, AMD.

The world's biggest chipmaker paid computer makers to postpone or scrap plans to launch products using AMD chips, paid illegal rebates to encourage them to use Intel chips and paid a retailer to stock computers with its chips, the Commission said.

The antitrust fine, imposed after an eight-year investigation, is the biggest the European Union's executive arm has imposed on an individual company. David Anderson, a lawyer at Berwin Leighton Paisner, said Intel was "facing a wall of regulatory resistance to its business practices around the world" with antitrust infringement decisions against it now in Japan, South Korea and the EU.

U.S. authorities are also investigating Intel, whose microprocessors power eight out of every 10 personal computers.

Financial analysts said U.S.-based Intel would be able to maintain its market dominance but the EU's decision could help Advanced Micro Devices boost its market share.

"Intel has harmed millions of European consumers by deliberately acting to keep competitors out of the market for computer chips for many years," European Union Competition Commissioner Neelie Kroes said.

The Commission said Intel must cease all illegal practices immediately but Intel President and CEO Paul Otellini said the company would appeal at the Court of First Instance, the EU's second-highest court.

"Intel takes exception to this decision. We believe the decision is wrong and ignores the reality of a highly competitive microprocessor market," he said in a statement.

Kroes said the EU antitrust sanctions would be carried out immediately. In a previous antitrust case against software giant Microsoft, the Commission froze its remedies during part of an appeal filed by that company.

Bruce Sewell, a lawyer for Intel, said the firm had not yet begun talks with the Commission on how to comply with its ruling and said: "We will try to be compliant with the order."

The fine offset earlier optimism after Intel said late on Tuesday its orders and billing patterns had been slightly better than expected so far in the second quarter. Shares of Intel rose 1.3 percent in premarket trade.

INTEL TO REMAIN DOMINANT

Some analysts said the decision would have little strategic impact and would not change the way Intel operates.

Others said it was a historic decision that showed the extent of the EU's determination to ensure dominant companies do not shut rivals out of the market and would have a big impact on the global IT industry.

"Intel's competitive advantage is not that they cheated or anything like that. It's that they are much larger than their smaller rival AMD. As far as long-term competitive advantage (goes), Intel still has it," said Andy Ng, an analyst at investment research firm Morningstar.

The Commission investigated practices dating to 2002, and said Europe accounted for 30 percent of Intel's current worldwide 22 billion euro market.

The Commission said Intel must pay the fine, which represents 4.15 percent of the company's 2008 turnover, within three months of being notified of the decision.

It could have fined Intel 10 percent of annual revenue.

The penalty surpassed the 896 million euro fine last year on glass maker Saint-Gobain for price fixing, and a 497 million euro penalty in 2004 on Microsoft for abuse of dominance.

Intel posted first-quarter sales of $7.1 billion. Analysts estimated the company enjoys a sizeable cash balance, generating close to $10 billion in cash last year.

Craigslist Removes 'Erotic Services' Section

If Lisa Madigan is to believed, you might have to get your online erotic kicks elsewhere, starting very soon.

Madigan, the Illinois Attorney General, told AP that Craigslist has agreed to remove its "Erotic Services" section. It will be replaced by an adult category that will feature ads reviewed and approved by Craigslist staff.

Current Erotic Services ads will expire in 7 days.The section made headlines recently after a man was arrested for killing a girl he met through Erotic Services. Madigan last month called for Craigslist to remove it from its Web site, as did several other AGs. Craigslist officials met with the AG in New York City recently and pledged to tweak the section, but made no promises at the time to remove it completely.

Craigslist did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but at this point, there is no longer an option to post to "erotic services." Instead, Craigslist has a link to an adult section, which costs $10 per post.

"New 'adult services' ads will be reviewed in the order received for compliance with posting guidelines and the craigslist Terms of Use," according to a note on the site.

Once submitted, the ads cannot be edited. In the future, Craigslist will add the ability to re-post the same ad for $5.

Seagate to Cut 1,100 Jobs in Cost Cuts

NEW YORK, May 13 (Reuters) - Seagate Technology said on Wednesday it plans to cut about 1,100 jobs from its workforce in a move the computer storage maker expects will reduce costs by about $125 million a year.

The job-cutting move, which affects about 2.5 percent of Seagate's workforce, is aimed at helping the company stay on track toward being cash-flow and earnings positive within its fiscal year 2010.As a result of the plan, Seagate, which competes with storage company Western Digital, expects to take restructuring charges of about $72 million, primarily in the quarter ending in June.

About one month ago, Seagate reported disappointing quarterly gross margins and eliminated its dividend, reflecting weak demand from corporate customers and stronger sales of lower-priced products.

The elimination of the quarterly dividend is expected to trim costs by about $60 million annually, the company said.
