Imation Apollo Pro WX, hard disks WUSB

The Wireless USB begins to position itself in the marketplace. Probably you do not hit it until laptops and computers come pre-installed with this technology.


Without specifying whom will be in sizes that will be sold, we do know that the largest of the discs will offer 1.5 TB of storage capacity. They also have a few tabs on the side with whom we can have them stand without using a carrier.

Anyway, still will have to wait to opt for WUSB technology, since it seems that prices around 150 dollars, not counting the hard drive to add. Hence we must add either a WUSB adapter or a computer that supports this technology. I want rid of the wires, but not at this price.

Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Mini Ui 3520

Presented officially in late August, is already confirmed that Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 3520 IU Mini is also available for sale in Spain.

This computer comes to increasing the list of ultraportátiles available in our country, showing quite as balanced as a whole but without highlighting any particular aspect, quite apart from the possibility of adding a casing to customize, as well as protecting its exterior.

Not only we can change their color, but also sell some transparent housings, so that we can use the image or picture that we want to decorate the Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Mini.

Its screen is 8.9 inches, offering a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels. It's kind of LCD and is designed for use outdoors without reflexes bother us. To manage it, has an Intel GMA 950 graphics card, which supports DirectX 9. Integra at the top, a 1.3 megapixel webcam and a microphone that we will perform videoconferencing.

Its interior, we find an Intel Atom 1.6 GHz, 1 GB of RAM and a 60 GB hard drive, although there will be options available with 80 and 120 GB. Unfortunately there is no RAM can be expanded through additional modules, since 1 GB is the maximum it supports.

As connectivity, we find the Wi-Fi compatible with 802.11g, which can not be omitted from a team well, and a Bluetooth module 2.1, which will allow us to use a cellphone to connect to the Internet. In addition, has an ExpressCard slot with which we can connect a 3G card.

It comes also with a pair of USB 2.0 ports, Ethernet connection and a memory card reader, which supports SD, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro and MMC.

Its battery is 4 cells and, although offers a range of 4.5 hours, this only occurs in the case that we are not doing anything with him. It is appreciated that the manufacturer tell us the real time we can get him, in case you are navigating through Wi-Fi is just over 2.5 hours. Justita, but at least not less than similar models.

Since December will be available an extra battery of six cells, with which we can stretch a little more autonomy from Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Mini. It also lengthens the somewhat using its silent mode, by pressing keys reduces the frequency of work the processor and graphics card, limiting the noise produced by fans.

Their actions are 23.2 x 17.5 cm and weight, the usual in this type of ultraportátiles, just over one kilogram.

A pity that the only operating system you can buy the Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 3520 IU Mini is Windows XP Home Edition, as might have chosen to offer it with any Linux distribution, reducing its price a little, which is about 399 euros reasonable . It is not ultraportable cheaper, but falls within the average for their benefits.

It was put up for sale next to a cabinet in red, but subsequently be acquired in other packs that contain a color and a transparent, and that will be available in pink, red, black, gold and dark blue.

Asus RT-N11, create up to four wireless networks

With most wireless routers are used to define little more than the network name that we use, security and begin to use them. But if we give access to someone, for example, if a friend comes home, this is not the safest solution.

To this end, the Asus RT-N11 allows the creation of up to four areas, namely, four subnets, each with a corresponding name, and in which we can define what kind of security we want and the width of banda that offer.

This allows us to, for example, connect all our computers in one of the sub, using WPA2 with a strong password and ancho de banda unlimited, while also offering another subnet, without using passwords to connect with a width of banda limited, so that we do not saturate ours.

The options are several, but the improvement in security if we share the wireless network is clear. The RT-Asus N11 is compatible with the preliminary version of 802.11n, offering higher speed and coverage, in addition to incorporate mime, which also increases their performance.

We forgot to comment on the Asus RT-N11 has a WAN connection, ie is a router for ADSL and not separate from this. It is on sale for 81.20 euros.

Asus AiGuru SV1, video calls via Skype

The range of Asus AiGuru was created by the manufacturer in combination with Skype, offering phones that allow us to make calls through this service VoIP. So far, we have seen models like S2, which also calls SideShow available for use on computers with Vista.

The last appearance of this family is the Asus AiGuru SV1, which adds a new feature on the phone, conducting video calls via Skype. In return, his party loses more portable, as it is a big and that is not intended to be carried anywhere.

It is rather a complement to fixed telephone, a bit in the style of those films that futurists predict that within a few years have videoteléfonos with those who see him face to our interlocutor. As the AiGuru SV1 brings that future, which I am not convinced that is what they really want. Without trying to make a video call early in the morning, newly erected.

Its LCD screen is 7 inches and offers a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels. The camera has a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels and integrates the microphone and a loudspeaker, although we may use our own through which includes connectors. It connects to the network via Ethernet connector or via Wi-Fi, being compatible with 802.11g.

For if we really need to take it from side to side (which he does not seem advisable too) has a battery that offers 20 minutes of autonomy. It is on sale from October and will be priced at about $ 300.

Is Expensive and unnecessary? You can, taking into account that an ultraportable could perform the same functions but have the future available right now is what we have.

Samsung Beat Edition, mobile music


Samsung wants to boost its line of music phones, a market expansion and clear in which other manufacturers have long since come full, with the clear example of his range with Nokia XpressMusic. The Samsung are known as The Beat Edition.

For the moment, are launched with two models, Samsung and Samsung Beats BEATb, which does not stand out both for its internal memory capacity, because they prefer betting on the storage MicroSD cards, but by checks devoted to reproduction and functions accompany them.

The Samsung BEATb is a kind of candybar phone that includes technology DNSe, that this company also offers a widgets as the YP-Q1, and improves the sound quality.

By contrast, Samsung Beats is a slider and includes amplifier Bang & Oluffsen ICEpower, along with a pair of stereo speakers.

Among the common features are the keys of reproduction in the front of phones, which allow us to control the music we hear. But they also incorporate MotionPlay, with which we can do the same through gestures.

So, shaking the phone we can go forward or backward song and tapping the finger can pause and resume play. As additional functions for music, including service Shazam identification of songs, which, by the way, we tested the iPhone and operates in more than correct.

It was put up for sale between September and October, although at the moment has not yet been announced at that price.

Other studies confirm the intuitions of Dr. Rose and will be soon published a book on the subject of co-ruminating by researchers at State University at Stony Brook.
