Sony HBH-DS205 Headphone

|

Check out this cool new headphone from Sony. It's probably built specifically for Sony Ericsson walkman phones for an even greater music experience, but I think it can be used with any device that is compatible with it. You can clip the pendant to your shirt and don whatever headphones suit you best. It has a 3.5 mm input jack that allows you to connect it to you favorite portable music device.

As mentioned, the headphone is built for Sony Ericsson phones. I guess that is why the headphone has a feature that automatically mutes your music when a call comes in, and resumes when you end the call - and you don't even have to touch your phone.

clip the pendant to your shirt and don whatever headphones suit you best. A 3.5 mm input jack allows you to swap them to listen to your music your way.Play the music in your phone through the high-quality stereo headphones of the DS205 without any physical connection between the phone and your ears.

Features:

* Bluetooth technology - 2.0
* Ear hook
* Fast port connector
* Auto pairing

Specification:

* Dimension: Size 13 x 65 mm
* Weight: 13g
* Colour: Dark Grey

Dell's Studio 1535/1536 - Laptop Line Growing

|

Dell Studio Line
I don't know about you guys but when I think about my laptop I want it to be better and more efficient when it comes to doing all that work or entertainment. I don't particularly want it to look better so others can admire it. Same thing goes for my desktop. They aren't cars. I wouldn't tune them up. But Dell sure is investing time and resources in their Studio Laptop line as for some people personalization is important. I am just hoping they are working unde the hood as well.

Besides Mike Ming's touch, multiple colors are rumored and more tech upgrades are waiting inside. We'll have HDMI and eSATA in the 1536 version. There's WWAN options from Sprint, AT&T and Verizon. There's hybrid and dual drive options in the 1735 and as for video cars, we can count on ATI 3450, 3650 and NVIDIA 8600M GT.

All we need now is some prices for this Studio laptops!

Google_Fish.h2.jpg
No matter what cell phone we use, no matter what new dektop or ultra-portable notebook gets invented and released, no matter whether a PC is legal in Cuba or not, names like Yahoo, Microsoft, Apple or Google will always try to get involved in those markets.

This year the Yahoo takeover by Microsoft (hostile or soft) has been one of the headlines over the internet. Whether you were online on your new smart phone or on your company's laptop you must have heard about it. All that hassle and all the talk about how, when and where will this deal finally be signed.

But what a shocker. Microsoft will no longer pursue their Yahoo acquisition. So they say at least for now. How will that impact the mobile world? We'll just have to wait and see! As for now the only winner of this completed deal has one name: Google!

Computers No Longer Banned in Cuba

cuba pc.jpg
I have been using a computer for more than15 years already. Imagine if I was born in Cuba... Who knows if I would have been able to even dream about purchasing a personal computer. PCs have been banned by the Cuban government for years now. The only available ones were on the black market, if you had the money for it. I don't even want to imagine what you would have had to do to get internet... Dial-up of course!

But fellow Cubans, I heard you were given excellent news. Every Cuban that affords it can legally buy a personal computer: Celeron processors, 512MB of RAM, Windows XP, and a CRT display. The price? $780. Huge, I know, given the average salary is somewhere around $20.

These computers are only available at one store for now. As for Internet access, that hasn't been approved yet for the general public. Only state journalists or trusted officials, whatever that is, will go online. We'll let you know what the future brings. Did any Cuban read these lines? Let us know!
