Dell and Asustek to launch AV notebooks 07/31/2004 03:53 AM
Dell and Asustek Computer plan to launch 17-inch AV (audio video) notebooks to compete with Toshiba’s recently launched Qosmio notebook, according to market sources. The new AV notebooks are intended to give a jolt to sales in the second half of this year, with most vendors claiming that demand was not as strong as expected in the first half. Toshiba was the first to introduce an AV notebook, launching the E15-AV101, its first Qosmio model (pronounced koss-me-oh) on July 22.

The E15-AV101 features TV and audio functionality, DVD recording and personal computing, according to Toshiba. The Centrino-based notebook also has a 15-inch diagonal TruBrite screen and will be available starting in August. Dell launched its long-awaited 12.1-inch, wide-screen Inspiron 700m, manufactured by Wistron, on July 27. The Inspiron 700m had been postponed, due to delays of Intel’s Dothan CPU launch. The Inspiron 700m, along with an upcoming 17-inch AV model, are a crucial part of Dell’s plan to capture back-to-school sales, the sources noted.

Did The Wizard of Oz inspire Lord of the Rings? "The first film version of L. Frank Baum’s The Wizard of Oz was released in the summer of 1939, less than a month before World War II officially began. Though started as early as 1937, The Lord of the Rings was largely composed during the war years, but not published until somewhat later. Therefore, it is by no means impossible that J.R.R. Tolkien saw the magnificent MGM movie before he wrote most of his magnum opus. Could Oz have influenced his tale somehow, consciously or unconsciously?"

According to a recent study by Current Analysis, unit sales of notebooks equipped with a widescreen 15.4-inch display have steadily continued to climb throughout the first half of 2004. As of June 30, the widescreen market accounted for 48% of all notebooks sold, compared to only 15% in December 2003. The growth represents the highest share yet for the widescreen models since its introduction in the spring of 2003 and demonstrates widescreen systems are selling in greater numbers than its traditional square counterparts.

Panasonic has announced a AA and AAA batteries that will last twice as long and will be on the market soon. Good news for all of us and this is a good move to preserve the environment. [LockerGn ome]

They're even more environmentally friendly than other choices.

A look at iPod batteries

A look at iPod batteries 03/19/2005 03:27 AM
Since it’s debut in 2001, iPod users have had to contend with the thorny issue of battery replacement. Apple iPods are not unique in the world of rechargeable devices, writes Lance Ulanoff of PC Mag.com. All of the MP3 players on the market use rechargeable batteries, however some are designed for easy battery replacement by the owner. In his comprehensive article, Ulanoff outlines Apple’s battery replacement policy and gives the background in what has been a contentious issue for many iPod owners. “Maybe Apple made a mistake by not making them so consumers could replace their own batteries, but perhaps that's the price you pay for that much-lauded Apple industrial design,” Ulanoff concludes. “So please, enough with the wild conspiracy theories and the threats of class-action lawsuits. The iPod's a good player. Apple's not trying to pull a fast one, and some of you need to learn a little more about rechargeable battery care.”

Building Better Batteries

Building Better Batteries 12/24/2004 12:29 PM
David Pescovitz: My latest article for TheFeature is about new battery designs for mobile devices, from an onboard nuclear trickle charger that harnesses radioactive energy to a microbattery made with the same techniques used to fabricate computer chips.

"In late 18th century, Italian physicist Luigi Galvani shocked the public by demonstrating that an amputated frog's leg twitched when touched with certain metals. Galvani was convinced that energy stored in the frog's leg caused the jerk. He called the accumulated juice "animal electricity." Galvani's friend Alessandro Volta called it nonsense. To prove that the energy came from the metal, not the flesh, Volta eventually made a sandwich of silver, moist cardboard, and zinc. His device also spurred frogs' legs to spasm. In the end, Volta won the intellectual battle and also invented the battery. Two hundred years later, the technology hasn't changed much."
