E-Rope Modular Power Strip

Posted on 10 July 2006 by admin

Designed by Chul Min Kang and Sung Hun Lim, the “E-Rope Modular Power Strip” is a 2006 Idea Award winning concept. Here’s how it works:

Its blue lights glow to indicate power is flowing, and if you rotate the socket section 90 degrees, it turns off the current, saving you from that power-sucking standby mode that’s so prevalent in many of today’s electronic devices. Plus, its modular design lets you add just the right number of outlets needed

Posted on 10 July 2006 by admin

Jaffer Hasnain reviews the Gateway M285 convertible notebook. It features an Intel Core Duo T2600 (2.16-GHz) processor, 1GB of DDR2 memory, 80GB HDD, ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 graphics, Bluetooth connectivity, and a 14-inch WXGA display. Here’s what the reviewer had to say:

The performance is top notch, and the quality is also surprisingly nice. Overall, I would definitely recommend this laptop to anyone who is looking for a replacement for a desktop, while still keeping all the functionality of a laptop, as well as having the added functionality of a tablet for whatever they may need it for

Trinity low-cost Linux-based portable digital audio workstation

Posted on 10 July 2006 by admin

Upstart Trinity Audio Group is looking to attract budget-minded music producers and podcasters with their self-titled handheld, which promises all the capabilites you’d expect from a full-fledged digital audio workstation in a package smaller than a laptop. Based around CompuLab’s tiny CM-X270L module, the Trinity runs Linux along with a variety of open source audio applications, including Audacity and Ecasound, for which Trinity says it’s developing its own graphical front-end. The rest of the specs seem decent enough as well: you’re getting a 6.5-inch TFT running at 640×480, 128MB RAM, 20GB hard drive, built-in WiFi, two Neutrik combo jacks, and a purported four hours of battery life “under rigorous audio demands.” If that sounds like just your fix, Trinity is happy to take your $1000 now and ship one whenever it’s ready — they’re currently saying October.
