Acer Iconia Tab A100 ReviewEverywhere.Blogspot.Com

Acer start to marketing the tablet computer Iconia Tab A100. The first device is a 7-inches tablet that uses the Android operating system Honeycomb 3.2.

Indeed Honeycomb tablets currently available on average screen size is 10 inches. Call it the Galaxy Tab 10.1, Motorola Xoom to Acer's own products, Iconia Tab A500.

A100 is now available in the United States, then Canada and possibly to other countries. In the U.S., the tablet is priced at $ 330 for the 8GB version and $ 350 for the 16GB version. Both were only wearing a Wi Fi.

Iconia Tab A100 7 inches screen at 1024x600 pixel resolution. There are two cameras, 2 megapixel camera on the front and 5 megapixels in the back complete with LED Flash.

Quoted from PCMag, Sunday (08/14/2011), this compact tablet feels quite powerful. Because, it had been taking a 1 GHz dual core processor Nvidia Tegra 2 and 1GB of RAM. While the battery can last about 5 hours.

Light used to illuminate the LCD screen turns on the gadget can be used to recharge the battery. It attempts to achieve a study.

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) are developing ways to take the wasted energy from the an LCD screen that can be used in devices such as mobile phones and others.

Technology developed at the UCLA Henry Samueli researcher School of Engineering and Applied Science is an organic photovoltaic polarizer. The concept, which used the LCD screen can be equipped with photovoltaic polarizer. Thus, any light that hit the screen it can be converted for energy.

Not coincidentally, the LCD screen, such as on a smartphone, will usually be illuminated by lights from behind (backlight). Well, about 75 percent of energy from this lamp will be wasted. Yet to turn on the lights it takes 80-90 percent of battery energy.

Each LCD has two layers of polarizers, in front of and behind the scenes. What did the researchers at UCLA is basically to make a polarizer that also serves as a modifier of light into electricity (photovoltaic cells).

Aside from the backlight lamp, the screen is equipped with photovoltaic polarizer can absorb energy from the sun or even the lamp lighting the room through the front of the screen.

"Looking ahead, we want to increase the efficiency from the organic photovoltaic these polarizers, and eventually we hope to cooperate with electronics makers to implement it in real products," said Professor Yang Yang, the principal investigator of this study.

This research was supported by Intel Labs Academic Research Office. "This approach is very attractive, and could be synergy with other projects that we fund through Intel Labs," said Youssry Bouros, program director at Intel Research Labs Academic Office.

The paper about the research will be published in the journal Advanced Materials. The paper was prepared by UCLA researchers Rhui Zhu and Ankit Kumar.

ASRock finally released a motherboard that has been equipped with a third-generation PCI Express slot. With greater bandwidth, is expected to increase PC performance.

ASRock has become one of the motherboard manufacturers who issued the latest variant is fast enough. Planting PCIe 3.0 slots were claimed to be the first in the world.

"ASRock has always been a leader in each cycle of evolution. We were the first to produce the most advanced motherboard PCIe Gen3," claims James Lee, Vice President Sales & Marketing ASRock.

True PCIe 3.0 slots have been introduced since 2010 ago, but because there are some specifications that should be changed, then the new vendors could release it from mid-2011.

Generation graphics card slot offers several advantages over the previous version, such as greater bandwidth (PCIe 2.0 5GT / s PCIe 3.0 8GT / s). But the slot is also still compatible with previous generations of graphics cards.

"Extreme7 Gen3 Z68 motherboard from ASRock to support the revolutionary Intel processors and Nvidia Ivy Bridge 3-Way SLI technology," said Lee, in his statement on Saturday (6/68/2011).

Future Cell Mobile Phone Technology

Mobile phones have undergone a huge revolution. Starting from a mere instrument of communication, entertainment, until now a computing device. Then what kind of cell phone technology is being developed Qualcomm?

Qualcomm itself is not new players in the communications industry. After considerable success with CDMA technology they developed, vendors from the United States began to expand into the chipset for the smart phone industry.

The sophistication of today's smart phones, such as online with 3G network capabilities, listen to the audio quality ciamik, to play games via mobile phones rock is part of their innovation. Well, it seems that Qualcomm has begun to develop new technologies for various types of mobile phones in the future.

"In the future mobile phones not only smarter, but also more personal. They can identify what it wants its users, including what they hate," explains Pete Lancia, Senior Director Marketting at the headquarters of Qualcomm, San Diego, United States, in the event Qualcomm Editors Day.

According to Lancia, phones today are no longer just a phone or texting device, but rather as a computational tool like a computer in your pocket ready to pamper its users.

"The function of mobile phones has changed, and now we are developing technology that makes cell phones can talk, hear, taste, smell and feel," added Lancia.

This is the Advantages of Long Term Evolution LTE 4G Network

Cellular 4G Technology Long Term Evolution (LTE) touted to bring about significant changes in speed Internet access than previous generations. What is offered by 4G LTE?

"LTE networks could download a high-definition movie with about 15 minutes. Compare with HSPA which takes up to six hours," said Pratignyo A Budiman, GM of Strategic Technology Planning Telkomsel of Telkomsel Media Education in 2011 in Shenzen, China.

Pratignyo of exposure, it appears a significant difference between the LTE with previous technologies. There are a few things running smoothly is only possible thanks to LTE technology.

In addition to high quality video download, LTE can seamlessly run television on demand, high quality online games to video-based ads. This is because the access speed is great.

According Pratignyo, LTE can reach peak speeds up to 150Mbps. For comparison, the EDGE network only reach 256kbps, 384kbps UMTS, HSPA and HSPA + 14.4 Mbps 42Mbps.

For business web access and download any content LTE has huge advantages. Eg size 5MB download music only takes about 5 seconds. Compare with EDGE which takes up to 1 hour or HSPA + to 40 seconds.

With all the advantages, it seems to 4G LTE will benefit consumers.

Apple Asking or Proposing Smaller SIM Card

ReviewEveryWhere.Blogspot.Com

Apple has proposed standardizing the SIM card which is smaller than that currently available. With the new standards are expected gadgets would be born with thinner.

A spokesman from the European Telecoms Standards Body (ETSI) has recognized the special desire of the manufacturer of the iPhone and iPad. It's just confirmed that the decision to legalize more mini SIM card which will not be coming in the near future.

"This process will certainly take some time, could be a year or even more. Especially if there is disagreement from other industry players," he said, quoted by Reuters on Wednesday (05/18/2011).

While the operator side, as the party that issued the SIM card, welcomed the enthusiasm for Apple to make a breakthrough in information and communications technology industry.

"We're pretty proud of what brought Apple to the ETSI to request a SIM card which is much smaller than the present buried in the iPhone 4 and iPad," said Anna Bouverot, Head of Mobile Servives Orange.

Apple's move was also judged to goals, let alone a number of mobile operators in mind would support the existence of more mini SIM card is.

Bouverot predicts, the first device that will instill the SIM card will come in early 2012.

But certainly, if that happens then this will be suautu crucial step for the industry as a whole. Where other vendors' devices will conform to the standards of the new SIM card.

"At one point, a number of vendors will surely adjust to the change from the side of the smartphone device size and weight," added analyst IDC technology from research institutions, Francisco Jeronimo.
