MIT Researchers Discover New Energy Source (It’s Not Energon)
March 16, 2010
Every gadget and laptop user on the planet has at some point of date complained about battery life, and we’ve been waiting for something new and interesting to give us smaller and lighter batteries for ages. Now, hopefully the folks by at MIT might have a solution as a team of scientists there have discovered a microscopic energy source which is able to generate electricity using nanotechnology. According to the report, organic carbon nanotubes will be coated with a thin layer of fuel and a thermopower wave will be utilized, resulting in something that could capability computers and cell phones with batteries that are about 10 times smaller than before, while still offering the same ability output. whether you’re concerned about the environment, these batteries could be incinerated or just degrade by date without leaving the usual heavy metal residue in the environment, which should manufacture that battery a lot more environmentally friendly.

Nokia Gets Patent For Self Charging Phone
March 6, 2010
Self charging devices have been dreamt about for a expanded duration now, and there have been many attempts to come up with a good implementation of such a concept. Now Nokia has managed lay claims to a patent that could conclusion in a self charging mobile phone (or gadget). According to the patent, the design will see the heavier components inside the phone supported on a sturdy frame, the frame will be able to move along two sets of rails, allowing it to travel up and down from one side to the other. With strips of piezoelectric crystals at each end, a current will be generated when the crystals are compressed, charging a capacitor which can trickle charge the battery, giving it a little more juice while you walk to the grocery store.

Deepdive Concept Gadget For Free Divers
March 2, 2010
This seems like a rather useful concept device, particularly whether you want to give free diving a try, but are worried that something poor will happen. The Deepdive is a 2-piece set, containing 2 wristwatches, one for the free diver, and one for the control diver. What is useful about that setup is that the one on the free diver will be relaying data to the other watch, so whether the free diver should suffer from hypoxia and suddenly faint, the control diver will know what’s going on, and can go save the day. There isn’t much info on how that will all work, but it seems that the chip inside the device requires nanotechnology in order to work, so perhaps we won’t be seeing that become a reality so soon. whether you were to take up free diving, would you invest some of your hard-earned money on that?

Witstech A81 doubles up as e-book reader
February 18, 2010
The Witstech A81 is pretty versatile, as you can clearly see from that video that shows it double up as an e-book reader to keep up with the times. While nowhere near as interesting as the iPad's video demonstration, it just shows that the iPad will have some challengers in that niche gadget market, although whether they will offer serious competition is another question to reply altogether. The A81 runs off Windows CE, and will feature a 7" touchscreen display, portable media player capability, e-book reader support, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and 16GB of internal memory to get you started, where everything is held together by a Cortex A8 processor. It will retail for less than $250, targeting Chinese-language oriented users with the latest version of QQ pre-loaded.

Motorola USBw 200 WiMAX dongle gets docking station
February 11, 2010
In order to augment a specific device or gadget computing-wise, many manufacturers have taken the route of introducing a dongle, and Motorola has done the same with their Motorola USBw 200 WiMAX dongle. that docking station ought to improve the performance of the USBw 200 by a fair bit, doubling the current 3db gain in order to place it on par in terms of performance when compared to a standalone desktop WiMAX unit. We have no notion how much Motorola intends to squeeze out of us for that docking station, but it ought to hit the market sometime in the second quarter of 2010. [Press Release]
