7 Advanced Notebook Tools and Notebook App

Withe new advanced notebook computers coming there is a lot that advanced note book owners needs in terms of  notebook applications to keep track of  in order to get the best netbook working of netbooks poses many challenges, such as frequently changing network settings Synchonising to a PC or the protection of data. We are introducing notebook software  tools that are effective users on the ground.

  1. NetSetMan This notebook app manages your advanced network settings which inturn  save  time in manual changes to the network configuration. On board a comfortable script editor with syntax highlighting for DOS batch is, JScript and VBScript. Profile data sets from NetSetMan in a separate file. So one can easily pass it.
  2. Net Profiles: Net Profiles allows notebook owners to create profiles of your network settings, including mapped network drives and default printers, and lets you easily apply those settings. It eliminates the need to manually reconfigure your network settings when you move your desktop/laptop computer to another location and want to connect to another network.
  3. Notebook Hardware Control: Prolongs your  notebook battery life. It actully does more , cool down and reduce noice level, monitor temperature, battery charge level and much more.
  4. With Capivara synchronized data remain on different disks on the same stand, the tool all the directories between FTP and SSH servers and local drives. So the files with a few mouse clicks Syndicate.
  5. Microsoft SyncToy synchronizes the contents of two folders or computer at your fingertips. It looks like documents, photos and music files on multiple media and PCs and is also suitable as a tool for data backup between two computers. The tool automatically detects duplicate files during synchronization and can combine different folders with each other. With SyncToy is the home PC always on the state of the mobile device.
  6. A lightweight among the media players is the VLC Player. The program provides a high functionality, without the resources of the computer to claim for itself alone. The open-source media player plays streaming in formats DivX, VCD, DVD, MPEG and OGG off during charging. Who wants to play large video files, not wait for the end of the download. VLC supports all popular formats and many exotics. The player feels well prepared for a longer ride.
  7. Dropbox allows the automatic synchronization and exchange of documents, images, music and videos between PCs over the Internet. After installing and setting up an account, the tool creates a folder on the hard disk. All data stored there synchronizes the application with a password-protected server that each user 2 GB free disk space is available. 50 GB of free monthly 9.99, 100 GBytes requires the provider $ 19.99.

144 petabyte on a CompactFlash card

The current standard for CompactFlash card (CF card) can be in version 4.1 is “only” support cards with a size of up to 137 GB, a limit producers already are near. This has led to CompactFlash Association (CFA) since November 2008 has been working on a new version of the standard, and it is now clear.

The new standard is called CD5.0 and now has an address space of 48 bits, which corresponds to a CF card in theory can accommodate up to 144 petabyte. Besides a marked increase in the potential capacity of brine is the possible transfer rate also increased by a factor of 256th

As many CF cards now also used to record video in, has added a possibility to guarantee a card can be used for video called “Video Performance Guarantee”.

In addition there has been a series of other measures to help ensure the quality of the standard, including a new test method to see if a card is CF5.0 compliant.

New Way to Make RAM Chips

The U.S. has a team of researchers at ASU, led by Michael Kozicki, invented a new way to make RAM chips using current production methods, but can increase capacity significantly.

The idea is to build the memory cells on top of another, one idea is not new, but now has become possible to create a simple way. The first hurdle by building cells on top of each other is to access them individually, which hitherto was resolved at a very inefficient way that made it difficult to make many layers.

It is here, Kozicki and his team have achieved a breakthrough. By using different types of silicon, it is possible to create an integrated diode in each memory cell, making it possible to write, read and delete each cell individually, without putting obstacles in the way of the next layer.

In theory, the method makes it possible to produce so many layers you want, and by extending the height could be pushed much more storage into existing chips. The new method is so simple that Kozicki allows himself to call it ridiculously simple. When technology pipe terminating in a real product, is uncertain.

Adam Tablet PC , e-book reader with a reflective screen

At the first day of MWC 2010 in Barcelona there were many launches for new technologies from microsft windows 7 mobile to smausng andorid devices but the surpirse came from the company Notion Ink which took the opportunity to showcase their bid for a tablet PC.

adam pc Adam Tablet PC , e book reader with a reflective screen

The product is called Adam, and differs from its competitors by being a cross between an e-book reader and a great tablet PC. The most notable is the LCD panel from Pixel Qi, which is transreflektiv.

Website Technoholik have been allowed to look at Adam two days before the presentation and get it reviewed by Rohan Shravan, founder of the Notion Ink.

The screen is 10 “and because it is transreflektiv, it is very suitable for reading by any indirect lighting and direct lighting such. Sunlight. It also means it can save its own illumination, thereby increasing battery life.

The screen is touch sensitive, but nonetheless Notion Ink chosen to locate a track pad on Adam, which is mounted on the back.

Further details and the final specification can be read here.

Sony displays 11 Gbps wireless system

Gone are the days of  high speed  internet its 2010 you can have much more that that. Sony has just announced a new wireless communications system that can reach transfer speeds of up to 11 Gbps, a technology that is used for internal communications in electronic devices.

The high speed achieved by using a frequency range between 30 GHz to 300 GHz. The disadvantage of such high frequencies, the transmission distance, measured in millimeters.

Sony says that the maximum distance is 14 millimeters, but it is enough for the purpose of the system to communicate at high speed in an electronic product that requires a large internal bandwidth.

It takes up less space to do a radio based communication system than making a similar line systems.

By replacing physical circuitry in electronics products with high speed wireless connections, this new data transfer technology reduces the number of wired connections and IC Minimizes use, two simplify the IC package and printed circuit board.Sony press release

The technology presented in these days of ISSC 2010 (International Solid-State Circuits Conference), held in San Francisco.

The Most powerful Motherboard

If you go and dream about having the most powerful computer in the street and have a lot of money, so is the latest motherboard from EVGA maybe worth a look. There is even talk of a prototype of the motherboard, which has been named EVGA W555. It is equipped with seven full-length PCIe connectors, which means that in theory can be equipped with seven graphics.

The motherboard is designed for use in powerful workstations and therefore also in place for two processors (LGA1366) and 12 RAM modules, but there are not many details out about it.

Although it has two LGA1366 sockets that are compatible with Core i7, so the motherboard will not be able to use two of these processors, since they are not made to work together. Instead, you have up and use a Xeon CPU in the W5000 series.
