Samsung has revealed a new ultraportable notebook, the X360, which the company is describing as “lighter than air”. They actually mean “lighter than Air”, as the X360 comes in 3oz lighter than Apple’s ultraportable. Under the hood lies a Centrino 2 ULV processor, 1GB of RAM (expandable to 4GB) and a choice of 64GB or 128GB SSD, [...]
It seems like technology is getting smaller and smaller each and every day. This Samsung hard drive could fit in your wallet–well, if your wallet is particularly fat–and it can run off of your USB port.
A clutch of new digital photo frames from Samsung today, and the company gets partial-kudos for giving at least some of them WiFi. Two 8-inch 800 x 600 frames, the SPF-85H and SPF-85V, and two 10-inch 1024 x 600 frames, the SPF-105P and SPF-105V, are available, although the ‘V’ versions have WiFi b/g. Each can load [...]
Samsung have just announced new low-density, higher-performance solid-state memory that takes up just 30-percent of the room of an equivalent SSD. Intended for low-priced PCs and netbooks, the MLC memory will be available in 8GB, 16GB and 32GB sizes and go into mass production in September.
More laptops, netbooks and mobile workstations than you could shake the proverbial stick at this week, with fresh offerings (and more than a few rumors) from many of the big companies. HP took the wraps off of three mobile workstations, complete with an amazing 17-inch DreamColor option, while Dell and Lenovo both had a version [...]
Talk about contentious: Samsung’s Omnia i900 has been heralded as everything from the best Windows Mobile smartphone yet, to the oft-fabled iPhone killer. Take a look at the spec sheet and you can see why, with a 3.2-inch touchscreen, 3G, WiFi, GPS, haptic feedback and a choice of 8GB or 16GB internal storage, the Omnia [...]
Samsung’s two new ‘Touch of Color’ LCD monitors, the T260HD and T240HD, which began shipping last month promised the best of both worlds: hook up to your PC or Mac for work, enjoy the ATSC / ClearQAM tuner and dual HDMI ports for play. However users are reporting that the displays’ HDMI ports are not [...]
Samsung has announced two new versions of the company’s Q1 Ultra UMPC. The Q1U-CMXP adds a 3G HSDPA modem, while the Q1UP-V replaces Windows XP with Vista Business. Both use Intel’s 1.33GHz Core Solo U1500 processor, but in a nod to Vista’s greater RAM hunger the Q1UP-V doubles standard memory to 2GB.
It’s become somewhat traditional to start the week’s review with what’s happening in the netbook world, a niche that’s arguably the fastest developing right now in consumer tech. Fujitsu kicked things off with the proclamation that budget ultraportables “don’t add up” and that the current race to the bottom line doesn’t give manufacturers enough room [...]
What’s the first thing you notice when looking to buy a new piece of technology? Do you see if it falls within your budget? What about the spec list? Do you go over that in detail? And though these aspects are an important part of any technological buying decision, there’s one that beats them all. You [...]
