LG has announced a fresher and highly upgraded version of its Viewty yesterday, with the name of LG GC900 Viewty Smart. It is being labeled as a camera phone, but in fact, this phone has a lot more than shooting pictures and videos.
Talking about the major features of this recent cell phone by LG; there is an 8 mp camera with ISO 1600 sensitivity and LED flash that automatically analyzes scenes and adjusts camera settings with Intelligent Shot Mode as well as shoots DVD quality videos. This feature frees the user from need of manually setting the modes. It also provides instantaneous feedback.
Technology is taking higher steps in development with every passing moment. An idea of a new tech wonder has been demonstrated by Kyocera at CTIA. It is a unique OLED mobile phone that has the tendency to fold and bend in many directions. User will be able to shape it as needed.
There are many forms in which this phone can be shaped including a flat shape for wide screen video viewing, and conventional net book form. It all depends on the user’s preference. It is made up of semi rigid polymer screen, and is really flexible. An important point to note is that it does not possess a standard rechargeable battery; rather this strangely novel phone gets its power from user’s movements. Absolutely new fangled and novel idea!
Apple iPhone has been a success since its launch. Users have recklessly downloaded the applications from App store from the day this service started. Now, Apple has listed top 20 applications, both free and paid for, on the iTunes. This ranking is based on the popularity of these applications, understood through downloads from the Application Store since iPhone’s launch. The more times an application was downloaded, the higher its rank floated.
HP is releasing its second firmware update for MediaSmart Server Series. The latest two of the series; ex487 (1.5TB) and ex485 (750GB) were released last year and gained much praise from all walks of life. Though this is going to be the second firmware update of this year for the series; it will be the first update for these two servers. This is going to be one big update, adding a lot more features than before.

Important to note is that this update is meant only for ex487 (1.5TB) and ex485 (750GB), as the previous models “simply lacked the horsepower and storage capabilities to handle these new tasks”, according to HP. It is going to be out for FREE downloading for everyone by the end of April.
After launching Aspire One, Aspire Revo and Aspire Z5600; Acer has yet come up with a whole spanking new trio of Aspire series laptops; the 3935, the 5935, and 8935. Acer has to make it public that when are these lappies coming in to the stores and how much will they cost?
Laptops and net books are fusing into each other to give birth to a new genus of portable computers; the Laptop-Net book Hybrid. Our first notebook here, the 3935 is one amongst the newly born hybrid series. It has a wide 13.3 inches LED backlit CineCrystal LCD with 16:9 aspect ratio, and is considered as an ultra portable; though the features which are packed into it are more than a mere net book can hold. Thus, it is an ultra portable with features of a fully developed laptop. The processing unit, here, is Intel Centrino 2, which promises a high quality processing. It holds a Mobile Intel GM45 Express chipset with integrated graphics. There is a limit of 4GB when it comes to RAM, and you get an option to choose between HDD and SSD storage. It is going to bear a Golden-Brown hue on its covering.
