Latest Forum Posts Qualcomms SnapDragon Specification - Read it. In Forum: Tablet PC, Laptop, Ultra-Personal Computing Posted: Sun Dec 20, 2009 12:00 pm By: Administrator There has been a lot of hubbub on what the SnapDragon actually is, does and is capable of supporting. So here it is, the definitive guide (just read their website stupid) and prepare to be stupefied.  What is is not: SnapDragon is NOT a CPU SnapDragon is NOT a Graphics accelerator SnapDragon is NOT a 3G chip-set SnapDragon is not a pet. What is IS: SnapDragon is/supports ALL of these technologies. SnapDragon is a platform on which mobile manufacturers can build their mobile devices on. SnapDragon supports up to WXVGA (1280x720), up to 12MP digital camera's and up to 720p video decode. The graphics power of the SnapDragon platform is impressive: High-performance 3D graphics – up to 22M triangles/sec and 133M 3D pixels/sec Codec support is also a lengthy list, as well as support for Mobile broadcast TV (MediaFLO). GPS support includes built-in seventh-generation gpsOne® engine with Standalone-GPS and Assisted-GPS modes While a lot of websites claim the CPU registers at 1GHz, and others say 600MHz. The truth is the main CPU runs at 1GHz while the DPS (digital signal processor) runs at 600Mhz. more @ the source: QUALCOMM.COM Read More Google punches everyone in the face with the REAL ANDROID In Forum: Other Communicators Posted: Sun Dec 13, 2009 7:59 am By: Administrator Ouch! That smarts. Who did that? It's Google you fool. This is what is going to happen, whether slowly or, in a whirlwind of punch-to-face ratio. With Google on the board for the OS, the hardware supervision and their own experimental stuff (gears, etc) this is going to show the world just what a mobile OS is all about. I was waiting patiently for the Sony X10 AND the HTC Passion with SnapDragon guts to come around - but it looks like the NEXUS ONE is going to hit the market at just about the same time. As I yepled earlier - OUCH!

Posted: Fri Nov 27, 2009 5:19 am By: Administrator I remember some years ago when I saw a 2GB USB (usb v1.1!) cost me about $200. I had to have it.. I mean, 2GIGABYTES! How much stuff could fit on it? Well, every PC program I was using at the time for backups.. tons of MP3's, my resume, and photos of my favorite people. WELL after buying a 4GB a couple years later and pretty much loading that up as well with even more odd-and-ends, the two USB drives are not large enough NOR are they comfortable in my pocket. So I found this SandDisk Cruzer 16GB model, which is the sweet-spot when it comes to capacity and cost. Every memory card I own is a SandDisk so its pretty much a no brainer for me. Not to mention its tiny, is retractable (wont lose the cap now like my old ones!) and fits on my key chain - which is more than I can say for the ones I used to carry.

In Forum: Moto Communicators Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2009 12:21 pm By: Administrator If I said I liked Moto phones, half the people I know whould grunt. Motorola? Yet, 5 years ago they were all using RAZR's. Buncha.... Anyway, this is the New CLIQ from Moto and it walks, talk and spits out social skills like a postwar flapjack. And no, I do not know what that means. The spec's look nice, though I have yet to see the real guts like CPU class, and ram/rom. I am goign to assume it uses And1.5 (cupcake) but one never knows. Hopefully it is around the $150 mark on contract.

In Forum: Bluetooth Posted: Mon Sep 07, 2009 7:46 pm By: Administrator I think this is something I could get into - a BT bracelet, or a watch, heck even a ring that vibrated when a phone call came in. One thing I do not like to do is keep my ringer on. I like to be as convert and quiet as possible in public places, and I don't need to bring any extra attention to myself (being a covert private person)... so these devices work out pretty well. The question is, which one? You have the simple bracelet that just vibrates and has a blue led when paired with your cell. Then, there is the one-upper that has a small LED display that will tell you the phone number of the person calling - nice. Lastly, if the mother (currently) of all BT wrist gear stuffs - a wristwatch that will display the caller ID name and number, is a watch, and also not bad looking to boot. They are of varying price range from about $25-$80. There aren't many of these out there, so I imagine once (and if) they become more common place, the prices will come down. In the meantime, I am thinking of taking the plunge.

Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2009 11:31 am By: Administrator This is something that truly pisses me off. I am surfing my regular sites, and ALLASUDDEN (!) I get an advertizement before getting pased along to the real home page I am supposed to be going to. I liken this to those semi-FuTardial people at the malls (ihatemalls) with their fancy carts that ask you "can I ask you a kwestyun?.. does you has a GF or a Wife? NO I dont have a GF of a wife, and I have no room in my life for happiness or your stupid skin cream. G.O. A.W.A.Y. This hijacking/stalking/hostaging/terroristic act of forcing me to look at some ad that might not even suite my demographic is a crime in itself. I don't mind that you want me to check out ads on your cool home pages, but really, forcefacef*cking me into seeing your ad beforehand is downright assholy. There are several sites that I could name here, but I will not, because I would be advertizing them, and they don't need the publicity. Not that anyone importing is reading this post, but I felt the need to stab your eyes with my bluntFORWARDness and bring up the topic. Thanks, but no thanks!

Ultraportable computing. Although it does seem limited to web surfing and probably email or messaging - those things are always there just to suck you in with simplicity. Once users start asking for more - devices like this typically morph into more advanced tablets. Looking forward to trying this - and owning it. It will go nice in my dash!

I am never satisfied. Even if it is the same hardware as the G1 (my current comm), it doesn't matter. I want it - I will have it. It will be mine. Besides, my G1 is an original and HAS the original SQUEEKY hinge THING that most early hardware on the G1 had. Time to get rid of the hardware KB for good (for now!). Check out that sleek vett-like profile.
