Pico-ITX Form Factor, the World's Smallest x86 Mainboard

2007-04-28T02:35:00.000-07:00

The race is on and on. Now what? The world's smallest motherboard/mainboard? Not that shocked but pretty impress, of course. Expect more after this guys. Read all the features after the jump.

VIA Defines Pico-ITX Form Factor, the World's Smallest x86 Mainboard
Tiny 10cm x 7.2cm complete PC platform fits into palm of hand, more than 75% smaller than the Mini-ITX, embodies VIA's "Small is Beautiful" strategy to inspire x86 system innovation
Taipei, Taiwan, 19 April 2007 - VIA Technologies, Inc, a leading innovator and developer of silicon chip technologies and PC platform solutions, today announced the VIA VT6047 Pico-ITX form factor reference design, the smallest full-featured x86 mainboard in the industry designed for a new world of ultra compact embedded PC systems and appliances.

The Pico-ITX form factor is the latest advance in VIA's proven record on platform miniaturization. The Mini-ITX mainboard, at 17cm x 17cm, which recently celebrated its 5th anniversary as an industry standard form factor with wide market adoption, was followed by the Nano-ITX form factor at 12cm x 12cm, exactly 50% of the size of the Mini-ITX. Now, the Pico-ITX, at 10cm x 7.2cm and 50% of the size of the Nano-ITX form factor, truly embodies VIA’s "Small is Beautiful" technology design strategy of shrinking the form factor to drive the x86 platform into ever smaller systems and whole new device categories.

Leveraging VIA's extensive expertise in miniaturization at the silicon level through major advances in power efficiency, thermal management and feature integration, the VIA VT6047 Pico-ITX mainboard was designed to be powered by one of VIA’s energy efficient processor platforms, such as the VIA C7 or fanless VIA Eden processor in the 21mm x 21mm nanoBGA2 package, combined with feature-rich VIA system media processors to enable the board to pack a performance punch in a tiny, low heat, low power package.

"The Pico-ITX represents VIA's commitment to spearhead x86 innovation through our proven technology leadership in driving down the platform size," said Richard Brown, Vice President of Corporate Marketing, VIA Technologies, Inc. "As with the Mini-ITX and Nano-ITX form factors before it, this new platform has raised the excitement level among enthusiasts and customers alike, firing the imagination an almost unlimited range of what were previously impossibly small systems."

Ocean : $295 GPS-enabled phone by Helio

2007-04-01T23:29:00.000-07:00

"The world's first dual-slider combining a traditional numeric keypad and a separate full QWERTY keyboard in a single device."

Wow. Insanely awesome features (minus the no-GSM capability). This phone was designed to be the ultimate social networking tool, so.. expect some serious HTML enabler here. Otherwise you are near-fail, Ocean.

Other cool features:-

Click-Free Search

Searching the Web on a "phone" is a multi-step process. With Ocean, there's no need to open a search box. Just begin typing on the roomy QWERTY keyboard from the idle screen and the device automatically switches into search mode. Ocean has a built-in HTML browser, so users can visit WAP sites or surf any Web site on the Internet. Ocean's Web browser also lets users view and save Web images to their device and offers features like "mini map" and "page optimize" so navigation is easier than before.

Expect the Ocean invasion this coming spring.

..2MP camera, max 2GB microSD support,15 hours on a single battery charge... and so on, and what not (GSM of course.. arghhh.. why.)

New CCTV Camera with Xtra features: Gun Control Security Camera

2007-03-20T22:34:00.000-07:00

Now thats what I called, "CCTV". Equipped with "extra" security to keep the "bad-guys" away. But this is not for real. Kudos to the designer, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer. But make sure it won't lose easily as it would become "owners" greatest nightmare.

... this setup consists of “144 robotic fluorescent light fixtures controlled by 7 computerized surveillance systems”. The light tubes continually rotate to create “patterns of light that are ‘paths’ or ‘corridors’” as persons walk underneath.

When two or more people are detected, the system rotates the fixtures so that “light corridors” are created between them. As many people walk in the court, the light reflect the influence of all of them creating complex patterns similar to isobars. Every few minutes, the system enters an “interlude mode” showing random orthogonal arrangements

Game On : Microsoft Xbox 360 Elite (HDMI + 120GB HDD)

2007-03-20T22:17:00.000-07:00

This gorgeous limited edition black Xbox 360 will soon be release by Microsoft.(Somewhere in Q4 2007) So, still got time to fork out around $480 for it.
Mom, I want one!

* The Elite will be limited quantities only; that may be as much or as little as a couple hundred thousand.
* The case, controller, and Live headset will all be black. It will have all new packaging.
* Elite will cost $479, and will be a 3rd SKU; it will be sold alongside Premium and Core packs.
* Eventually Elite hardware (in white plastics) will take the role of the Xbox Premium. That is to say, after the Elite is launched and sold out, future Xbox Premiums will have 120GB / HDMI.
* We do not yet know exactly when 120GB / HDMI will become the standard for Premium, but it is loosely estimated to be late summer or fall.
* Elite models run cooler than normal 360s, but they are not yet confirmed to have 65nm chips.
* Prices may remain the same with the 120GB / HDMI hardware upgrade in the Premium Xbox, but we may still see a price cut on the line when 65nm chips start shipping.
* The HD DVD drive will not be internal or bundled -- Microsoft never did or nor does not currently have plans to put an HD DVD drive in the 360.
* There are no current plans to integrate WiFi into the Elite or future Premiums (although that can always change).

Animated Electronica Sand : Sand Time Watch

Awesomely designed by the talented Pavel Balykin.This watch uses LED display technology to make you wow!
But, this is only a concept(as for now). :(

"In the screensaver mode, the watch works like a conventional sand clock with the display showing the "electronic sand" falling from the top screen to the bottom. The rate of fall is set at a default of one minute but can be changed by the user. For those not too keen to have this sand clock display at all times, there is the modern digit mode that shows the hour and minute information as digits in the top and bottom screens respectively."

No Ordinary I-Phone-You-Answer Device : iPhone by Apple Inc. (No other's iPhone here)

2007-02-01T16:20:00.000-08:00

This one is old-stuff. Yes, I admit it. But for any awesome-break-through invention, nothing is old (agree?). The pinnacle reason why this luvly all-the-functions-you-die-for, iPhone didn't featured here sooner than now(while everybody still Wow'ed), is just the official release date of iPhone "arrival" on our shore (Malaysia of course). Totally can't accept it. Why 2008? What day/month in 2008? Yes.. of course you have to get approval this, certificate that.. but 2008? Isn't it way toooo long for us to get this Apple's worst kept secret ever? (pity me..) Nevermind. Maybe I'll get it without "waiting". Hmmm..

Unveiled at MacWorld Conference,San Francisco by Mr Jobs. The game-changing-touch-screen iPhone, touted by many as a combination of video iPod, a mobilephone and an World-wide-web communicator - with it 3.5inch widescreen LCD, wrapped in an ultra-sleek-sexy 11.6mm body.
Runs on a special version of Apple's Mac OS X, of course its carries if not all the benefits of its desktop siblings. Be it in the form of graphics, multimedia or networking. Thus, It claimed to be at least 5 years more advanced than any other software in the smartphone super-market.
As stated earlier, this iPhone also capable of doing what iPod does brilliantly - play GB's of songs plus both audio and video can-play-it. Dependable on your Flash memory storage (4/8GB).
The iPhone has quad-band GSM capabilities to offer, 802.11b/g WiFi and Bluetoth 2.0 as usual for data transmission. 5 hours of making/receiving calls, view vids or surfing the net and up to 16hrs of tracks-playing-activities.

Days after it was launched, other cellphone makers market shares, experiencing "slipped" on worries about their own ability to match iPhone. Ever wonder the actual day the iPhone, hits the store in US, Europe... the world? Would it be the same success story of the great iPod? Mr Jobs expecting to sell 10Million iPhone by end of 2008. Reasonable figure? Or way too much to hope for. For me, it will sold very fast. More than 10M I guess. Still tiny if compare to total 1Bil handsets sold per year globally. Isn't it?
But don't write off any competition so early. That's a must in this fast-growing technology area. C'mon guys at Nokia,Moto,Samsung,SonyEricsson + others you-know-who-you-are...... Give us your "passion"! Err.. how about a Zune-Phone maybe?

As what you've hear, it'll make you "lose" USD499(4GB) this coming June (only to our friends in the States,Europe - 2007/4th Q). USD599 for the 8GB. Friends! Don't get carried out way too excessive. Do remember us here,please :(

Get ready to be SSD'ed? But absolutely not in the near upcoming months for me. My current 60GB HDD was performing better than enough for the time being.

"Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., the world leader in advanced semiconductor technology solutions, announced that it is now sampling its 16-gigabit (Gb) NAND flash memory with customers - the first NAND flash using 50 nanometer (nm) process technology."

"The first samples of this high density NAND flash memory have a multi-level cell (MLC) design with a 4Kbyte (KB) page size to enhance both its read and write features. The new 4KB page function improves the conventional 2KB paging system for MLC NAND flash to double the read speed, while increasing write performance 150%."- source

150% increase? Wow! This is a biggg fuiyoo. But what actually does it mean? Easy said, you benefited more speedy & absolutely faster data transfer when storing or reading large data files.Mind if you're using an external memory card, or a handset with a built-in flash solution. Sounds awesome?

2006-11-06T16:37:00.000-08:00

Hmm... doncha think its super coool? Your next jamming session will lighten up, of course. With these thing , for sure my lead guitarist will kick a$$ even more harder than ever.

Even I will try to tempt him to hand me his long-serving-guitar .(of course to be cannibalised) :)
But anyway.. these Pick is a "picker".

"..these picks feature seven different programmable beat patterns, ranging from two to eight beats, and The Light Pick™ lights up on the first beat of each measure. For the stage guitarist, the lighting effects can add more that a little Claptonesque flash, and they can add panache to a midnight picking session in the dark, too. Most Light Pick™ models cost $59.99, which may seem like a lot for a guitar pick, but new tips are only $1.29 each." - [reviewer]
