In case you haven’t noticed, a lot of the current crop of iPhone apps and games we see at the iTunes store originate from another platform. In business, this is the same thing. While there are standard software made available for PCs or MACs, the software manufacturers normally tweak them and make them compatible with the handy gadgets such as the iPhones or the iPod Touch.

And for NCH software this is exactly what they are doing at the moment. With the world going mobile, the need to convert or come up with mobile solution software is a need. Being the leading provider of audio, video, business and telephony tools and utilities, NCH made it clear that they will release their own line made especially for the Apple iPhone.

The first software they have in their lineup is this software called ExpressDictate. With this software, iPhone users will be able to record and edit audio with nothing more than their phone using the NCH applications currently in development.

This is actually now available for a 14-day trial at their site.

We have seen different ways for using security measures in identity verification for some companies and surely this new development of using face detection is bound to be the next step towards ensuring reliable security management solutions via handheld devices. MaxID presents the integration of Animetrics face recognition into the iDLMax, a handheld identity management device. The iDLMax is the first commercially-available mobile computing device to incorporate Animetric’s superior 2D-to-3D face biometric technology.

The iDLMax’s camera and light source provides the mobile face camera for Animetrics thin-client application, Animetrics90 MobileID, which communicates seamlessly with Animetrics server based FIMS (Facial Identity Management System.) FIMS analyzes the camera images in realtime and is able to provide the face biometric applications including verification (1 to 1 matching) and watchlist look up (1 to many search).

The Animetrics patent pending 2D-to-3D face recognition technology provides important face biometric advantages such as pose and lighting correction enabling the iDLMax for practical real world conditions where other face biometric technologies have failed.

Animetrics integrated the A90 MobileID application into the iDLMax, a multi-modal, rugged mobile computer that offers a complete set of features for virtually any identity management challenge including contact card, contactless card, barcode, optical fingerprint, and optional magnetic swipe and MRZ readers with a digital camera, GPS, and comprehensive wireless communications. The iDLMax is a complete, integrated mobile solution for all badging and identity management requirements.

When users need to read fingerprints and now faces, TWIC, CAC, PIV, or FRAC cards, or driver’s licenses, as well as use the other on-board biometric functions to verify identity, the iDLMax connected handheld device does it all in a light, compact, easy-to-use form factor.

Toshiba offers another great mobile solution in the Satellite A305 –S6916. Offering good performance, it has decent speakers and touch multimedia controls. The Toshiba Satellite A305-S6916 offers up a unique design, slightly better graphics performance than other mobile solutions, and a couple of extras that make paying more for it worthwhile.

The laptop is fairly thick and made even thicker by the extended battery that’s included. Instead of adding to the depth by putting the cells at the back, they’re on the bottom, lifting the entire package up off your desktop.
