Word on the streets is that we could see the new WiMAX capable Nokia N810 as early as April 1st at CTIA. Personally I’d be more interested in seeing Sprint’s Xohm network finally launch, but I’d settle for a WiMAX ready N810.
Some of the things on that list are obviously the larger screen, but there is also the option of hard drives, an upgrade to up to 12GB of flash storage (still means my iPod Touch bests the Eee in storage and almost processing power), and they are getting an Intel upgrade to their Diamondville platform. [...]
Integrated graphics are a nice way to keep prices low, and Intel has been making some strides in that area with they new X3100 chips putting up some fairly impressive numbers. Those numbers will only get better when Intel’s X4500 graphics chips launch with the new Centrino 2 platform.
Apparently Fujitsu is the latest to hop into the cesspool that is WiMAX. They are offering business grade products, namely long range, mid-range, and short-range WiMAX base stations.
The stations can be hardwired together to increase either effective range, or coverage area or they can operate individually. The model above is the WX300 model.
Clarion’s high-end in-car entertainment systems have been edging onto ultraportable PC territory for a while now, and they’ve finally made the jump into bed with Intel and launched a Mobile Internet Device (MID) at CES 2008. The Clarion MiND (Mobile Internet Navigation Device) is an ideal example of the chip manufacturer’s digital companion vision: based [...]
Well, who ever thought that a day would come when they would make service provider networking hardware that was simple enough the consumer could set it up on their own. I thought it was all a scheme to make money when Comcast sent their installer and he was here for 6 hours doing a job [...]
This rumor comes from two different sources; the 4G wireless part is apparently from a preview site from Asus themselves and suggests that a new version of the Eee will have WiMAX. The other part comes from some sources that tipped off a Taiwanese paper that Asus was already manufacturing Eee’s with 8.9-inch screens instead [...]
NokiaSiemensNetworks took their LTE-based 4G network for a test drive and it worked well. In fact, it went so well that they even at distances up to several hundred meters away they were still getting over 100Mbps speeds.
All three companies are looking to LTE (Long-Term Evolution) as their choice for 4G data access. LTE, which I had never personally heard of, apparently offers up 100 megabits per second down, and up to 50 megabits per second up with a low latency of 20 milliseconds making gaming and video conferencing a more viable [...]
And yet, here we are, can’t even get a WiMAX network except at a tradeshow. All in, there are four new mobile WiMAX products.
The first is a PDA-like device, its model number is SPH-M8200, the second is a mobile convergence device, think of it as a mix of a UMPC and PDA, but with a [...]
