Sony X Series Walkman MP3 Player

 

Few companies boast the sheer brand recognition held by Apple. The electronics industry has turned Steve Jobs and friends into media darlings, with ridiculous amounts of speculation and anticipation pertaining to every gadget the company produces. While the iPod may be the industry standard for MP3 players, it’s by no means the only unit on the market worth exploring. If you’re unable to throw down for the Apple brand name, you’re in luck: a wide assortment of gadgets are perfectly capable of storing your tunes.

Take, for example, our Gadget of the Week, the Sony X Series Walkman MP3 player. In a different day and age, the name Walkman was synonymous with portable music, and Sony has wisely kept the name attached to a series of functional and sleek MP3 players. Averaging $100 less than their Apple counterparts, the X series comes packaged with premium noise-canceling headphones and a gift card redeemable for 100 free downloads via Sony music.

The beauty of a the X Series comes in device flexibility. Instead of putting up with the oft-frustrating iTunes platform for syncing and loading music, the X Series can function like an external hard drive, enabling you to drag and drop songs off of your computer and onto the player. This is great for syncing on the go and for keeping your player’s song collection up to date with your computer. The X Series comes with some great touchscreen technology, with an interface that is responsive and functional. If the touchscreen isn’t your thing, Sony wisely included additional functionality in a series of buttons along the bottom edge of the screen. This is especially useful when switching between audio and video playback.

Apple Macbook Pro Laptop

It’s perhaps the greatest battle of them all: Mac vs. PC. With so many people weighing in on each side, I hardly doubt my opinion will change anyone’s mind, but this week’s Gadget of the Week allows me to give my own personal testimonial, demonstrating both the positives and negatives of a PC-to-Mac transfer. This week, we’ll take a closer look at the Macbook Pro, one of the most prevalent gadgets in the world of electronics, and hopefully you’ll come to understand whether or not it’s for you.

As a dedicated PC user, it took a while to get used to the Mac interface, so let me first describe the experience that Snow Leopard offers the user. Instead of a start menu, arranged in the lower right like with all Windows machines, the Mac operates out of the “dock” system, which provides a toolbar at the base of the computer screen. Built-into this toolbar are a host of Mac programs, including heavily used programs like iTunes to the relatively less involved Time Machine. The Mac pre-installed programs offer a host of features intended to give you an intuitive user experience. Some, however, are better than others. It took a downloadable update to prevent iTunes from having brief skips during song playback, and the arrangement of photos in iPhoto doesn’t translate into an intuitive filing system for other use, but the features that come on such programs will be exciting and fun to play around with.

Seeing as I used my PC version of Microsoft Office quite heavily, I decided to see how the Mac version of these Microsoft programs translated into a PC-dominated computer world. The results took some getting used to, but for the most part, both versions of Office are workable and the files can easily be shared, so long as you remember to save in the correct format. The major annoyance comes in the lack of similar toolbar structure between versions. While editing a cell in Excel for the Mac, for example, the formula does not appear at the top of the screen, making it sometimes difficult to know exactly what edits are being made to the numbers. While this takes some getting used to, the program functions much the same, although some features in the PC version, such as statistical analysis, are not available in their Mac counterparts.

Indian Government Unveils $30 Tablet

Today’s headline and gadget sound, in many ways, too good to be true. But it is true, amazingly enough. Here in the United States, those wishing to be early adopters of the upcoming tablet computing trend have only one option: the Apple iPad, which costs the user a pretty penny in both initial cost and data plans.

While other devices are still in development, none has emerged as the front-runner to challenge Apple’s place at the top of the world.

Tablet computers, if they are indeed the future, remain elusive to the market in both the United States and Europe. The high cost of these devices makes them impractical for the average citizen of many other countries in the world. India’s solution? Design a better tablet and sell it for a jaw-dropping price.

The tablet, which was unveiled as a prototype earlier this week, was the child of a joint development between the Indian Institute of Technology and the Indian Institute of Science. With an estimated retail price of approximately $30 USD (about 1500 Rupees), the tablet is intended to find a home in the Indian education system, providing a computer to everyone from grade schoolers to graduate students.

Samsung Challenges Apple with Galaxy Tablet

As the Tablet Wars continue Apple’s early-adopter stance may be coming under considerable fire. While the iPad was the first device to bring the notion of a tablet computer to the market, those who have been hesitant to pick one up have some legitimate concerns. Whether its a lack of features or a concern that later models will incorporate said missing features, rivaling firms have a golden opportunity to capitalize on the market. Today’s news story presents another challenger to the tablet market, this one coming in the form of Samsung’s Galaxy Tab. The new device, due out on sale this fall, could make for the most convincing challenge to Apple’s market dominion.

The dimensions of the device itself put it in a unique position to challenge Apple. The device is somewhere in-between an iPhone and an iPad, making it something of a smartphone-tablet hybrid. The 7-inch touchscreen offers plenty of screen space, and at only 13.8 ounces, it is extremely light and portable. Boasting Google’s Android 2.2 operating system, the Galaxy Tab will offer a number of features that are missing from the iPad. Users will be able to surf the internet and visit websites with Adobe Flash and HTML5 support, two formats that turn up frequently around the Internet.

Other features point towards a universally-minded approach to making a tablet. Twin cameras, one on the front and one on the back, will enable the user to both take pictures as well as videoconference with friends via programs like Skype. With Bluetooth, WiFi, and 3G support, the Galaxy will be able to access information virtually anywhere, providing a truly universal platform for communications. The battery life is also something to be excited apart, with up to 8 continuous hours of use off a single charge. The versatility of the Galaxy could make the product as a whole.

Deals worth Rs. 1,000 crore expected in IETF: CII

Industry chamber CII on Tuesday said it expects business deals worth around Rs. 1,000 crore during the upcoming International Engineering and Technology Fair (IETF) here that will be attended by big brands such as Tata Motors, LG, Toyota and Mitsubishi.

The three-day engineering fair from February 10-12 in the national capital will have 250 companies participating from all over the world.

“We are expecting a business of Rs. 1,000 crore this time as the fair is in Delhi. Last year we earned Rs. 400 crore when it was organised in Bangalore,” former CII President and Chairman (Trade Fairs Council) Rajive Kaul told PTI.

The 19th edition of IETF will focus on eco products and is being organised by industry chamber CII with Japan and UAE among the partner countries.

“Japan is the partner country with its latest technology, with its eco products, UAE is the focus country,” Kaul said.

India’s largest car maker Maruti Suzuki and Toyota Kirloskar will be there with its latest models of Etios, Fortuner and Corolla and eco-friendly auto components.

The theme of IETF 2011 is ‘Green Productivity for Sustainable Energy and Environment’

He said there is a major increase of consumers who buy and use eco products.

The major participants include the UK, China, Russia, Italy, Thailand, Singapore and Malaysia.

The fair will be inaugurated by Commerce and Industry Minister Anand Sharma and UAE’s Minister of Foreign Trade Sheikha Lubna Bint Al Qasimi and Japanese Ambassador Hideaki Domichi will also be present.

On the expected footfall, he said, “We are expecting around 25,000 business partners this time from 14,000 in the previous year.”

The Water Pavilion, part of the three-day event, will provide sustainable solutions for water management and is being organised in closed association with Delhi Jal Board.

Companies like Jindal Steels, Toshiba, Tata Group, Voltas will exhibit their products ranging from electronic goods, cars, pumps to stainless steel items.

Portable GPS Tracker

This must be one of (if not the) coolest spy gadgets I’ve ever reported on. It’s sort of a cross between a USB memory stick and a GPS receiver and what it does is store where ever you take it on the flash memory.

The Portable GPS Tracker is pretty small so you could either always carry it on you or use it in 007 spy mode by planting it on a person or vehicle you want to monitor. You may be wondering how you retrieve the stored info and secret routes, well that’s where it gets really cool.
Once the tracker has done it’s travels and it’s back in your possession you simply connect it to you PC and download the data. This data can then be plotted on Google Earth, Mapquest, maps.google.com and Virtual Earth to show exactly where it’s been, how long it took and how it got there.

I just think this is so cool (may of said cool a record number of times in this post) it obviously has the spy functionality of tracking somebody else but to me it is even more useful for tracking your own holidays and backpacking adventures. So not only can you bore visitors with your holiday snaps you can also show them exactly where you went.

Full feature list:

• Records time, date, location, speed, direction and altitude
• Works with Google Earth, Mapquest, maps.google.com, Virtual Earth
• Location points are downloaded into its software and then mapped
• Battery duration is 5 to 7 days of typical operation with 4,000 records
• Requires 2 AAA batteries (not included)
• Dimensions: 4″ x 1 1/4″ x 3/4″
• Comes with TrackStick, lanyard, software CD

Capturing More Light with a Single Solar Cell

 

The most efficient solar cells typically have several layers of semiconductor materials, each tuned to convert different colors of light into electricity. Researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab have now made a single semiconductor that performs almost the same job. More importantly, they made the material using a common manufacturing technique, suggesting it could be made relatively inexpensively.

Several research groups are developing semiconductor materials that harness more of the energy in sunlight, based on an idea that dates back to 1960 for changing how semiconductor materials in solar cells interact with light. But the materials used in that research tend to be very difficult to make.

Much work remains before the Lawrence Berkeley lab material could be used in a practical solar cell, but in theory it could convert nearly half of the energy in sunlight into electricity—three times as much as most single-layer (or single-junction) solar cells. Such a solar cell could also cost less than the layered (or multi-junction) solar cells currently needed to achieve high efficiencies, since it would require only one semiconductor material.

In a conventional semiconductor material, it takes a certain amount of energy to free an electron and generate electricity.  Photons that have less energy—say, the photons in infrared light—don't generate electricity. And if a photon has more than the minimum—for instance a photon in energetic ultraviolet light—the extra energy is wasted as heat.
