Everybody likes the idea of an ultra portable personal computer in the shape of a bracelet because they can wear it on their wrists without feeling they are carrying it.
Many designers are trying to create PC concepts to fulfill the needs of all types of people targeting most of the market sectors.
I don̢۪t find its name very attractive or suggestive but Heartfarer is one of the concepts adopting the idea of a mobile handset wearable on the wrist and compared with other designs, it seems more practical, smaller and stylish.
It would really look good on anyone̢۪s wrist, and that counts a lot, in my opinion.PS3 Slim

The PS3 Slim comes with a 120 GB capacity and built in Wi-Fi connectivity. There are 2 USB ports which will come in handy when you want to plug in some external storage devices or charge the Bluetooth wireless controller. It maintains the same Profile 2.0 Blu-ray player and it supports playback of file formats such as MPEG-1, MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 videos taken from disc based media or USB. You can also view pictures in the JPEG format and there is even a slideshow feature. The PS3 has the capacity of acting as a digital media hub and this means you can stream the content from any network device which is DLNA compatible. Aside from all these features, there is also a built in internet browser.
Cool Gadget Goggles
GadgTechWorld.blogspot.com
The Vuzix Wrap 310 is a special and cool product which can be bought for $249. Even I they look just like a fancy pair of sunglasses, the Vuzix Wrap can do much more than make you look like Neo from the movie Matrix. This gizmo is considered to be the first wearable display in the world. This pair of glasses comes with one AV cable and the controller needs 2 AA batteries to run. Using the included AV cable, you can connect the Vuzix Wrap 310 to a DVD player. The screen is pretty good for most people to enjoy a movie and this Wrap also makes a good combination with your iPod as well. Unfortunately, you do have to put up with a lot of wires and no one likes to walk down the street or in the park with such a great number of wires hanging around. Even with this negative aspect, these glasses are still some on the best video goggles that money can buy in our days.

A lot of people are scared and concerned about their anonymity online. With many cyber criminals just waiting to steal your identity - including your personal details such as credit card numbers, one has to be a little more careful when surfing on the Internet.
It is even more crucial when you are using a public computer to view personal information. For example, if you were to go to an Internet cafe checking your bank account information, the next person to use the computer could potentially access your banking information.
But, if you use a proxy server, none of your sensitve information is stored on the computer that you are sitting at, ensuring that all your sensitive and personal information remains safe and secure.

Why Use A Free Proxy Server?
Free proxy servers protect your identity online
“Protect yourself from identity theft with a free proxy website when using public computers”
The Truth About Public Computers
Ask yourself this: is there any privacy in public?
Alright, let me shatter some myths for you.
Most Internet cafés claim that they are safe places for you to surf the Internet. The one thing that they don't do is tell you how to protect your sensitive information.
The biggest problem is that computers store cookies which have information about the sites you visit and these sites may save a cookie when you enter the password.
This can translate into a problem if you forget to delete the cookies and history when you logoff the public computer that you are using. If you do forget, there is the possibility that the next user could access that information and use it to gain access to the sites you visited while at the public computer.
So are public computers private and safe?
Neither.
Unless you know the precautions you need to take to erase your tracks (or use a free proxy server), don't visit any sites that you have to login to access them (think e-mail and membership sites) and don't visit any of your banking sites while on a public computer.

WiMAX- A NEW REVOLUTION IN WIRELESS INTERNET
GadgTechWorld.blogspot.com
WiMAX is the latest technology in the field of wireless internet. In fact it is the only available technology which enables broadband in wireless internet. WiMAX is the acronym for worldwide interoperability for microwave access. To phrase in simple words, WiMAX enables the users to access high speed internet with extreme mobility. This technology has several benefits when compared with existing WiFi technology. WiMAX uses microwave as a medium for data transfer which means a tower similar to the cell phone tower is used. Due to the use of microwaves, for a range of thirty miles, the data transfer rate can be nearly 75 MBPS. This would enable high speed internet access to more than 1000 computers from a single tower. The major advantages of WiMAX are, rural areas will be able to access broadband internet very easily at a much cheaper rate, Setting up internet access for the whole city can be completed within a couple of days. This would mean that in the near future we would be able to access the internet as if we are using the cell phones. It is possible to get hooked to the net from almost anyplace in the world.

Download complete websites to your desktop and surf them offline.

Website eXtractor saves you time and effort by downloading entire Internet sites (or the sections you stipulate) to your hard drive.
Whether you browse the web for research, work, or fun, there's nothing worse than having to wait for page after page to load in Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator (or in other popular browsers). The problem is they will only load one page at a time. So if you are viewing a large website with a thousand pages, you'd have to click the mouse a thousand times ... and ... choose a directory/folder a thousands times when you want to save each file. You end up spending a lot of time waiting around and not enough time reading or viewing pages on the Internet.
Note: Using a regular browser to surf large websites or photo galleries takes the fun out of web browsing and makes research a real chore.

Configuring BitTorrent or MuTorrent To Get Fast Downloading Speed
GadgTechWorld.blogspot.com
Normally when downloading torrents through torrent clients (Mu torrent etc) one does not get good downloading speeds and it becomes very annoying especially on slow internet connections. Actually it is not the software or torrents at fault but the default settings of MuTorrent (Or BitTorrent) are the culprits. When you download a torrent it is not only downloaded but also uploaded at the same time (Actually it is “Sharing”). Thus uploading also take your bandwidth reducing downloading speeds. By tweaking some settings you can reduce uploading speeds and increase downloading speed. Just follow the below given instructions:
Installing and configuring a Wireless Router
GadgTechWorld.blogspot.com
A wireless router affords laptop or portable computer users greater mobility in their homes and businesses. In most home networks, wireless routers are connected to a cable or DSL modem, and the router sends the signals and information that make up an Internet protocol (IP) thread to the user's computer via radio signals rather than wires.
To communicate with the wireless router, individual computers house transceivers such as an internal expansion card, a peripheral docked by USB or, in the case of laptops, a PC card or hard-wired internal device. For those accessing the Internet through a high-speed connection, a wireless router can also serve as a hardware firewall (as opposed to a software program), enabling protection from undesirable outside computers without exhausting as many system resources as traditional firewall programs.
DHCP-(Dynamic Host Control Protocol)
IP addresses, by contrast, not only must be unique on a given internetwork, but also must reflect the structure of the internetwork. As noted above, they contain a network part and a host part, and the network part must be the same for all hosts on the same network. Thus, it is not possible for the IP address to be configured once into a host when it is manufactured, since that would imply that the manufacturer knew which hosts were going to end up on which networks, and it would mean that a host, once connected to one network, could never move to another. For this reason, IP addresses need to be reconfigurable.
In addition to an IP address, there are some other pieces of information a host needs to have before it can start sending packets. The most notable of these is the address of a default router—the place to which it can send packets whose destination address is not on the same network as the sending host. Most host operating systems provide a way for a system administrator, or even a user, to manually configure the IP information needed by a host. However, there are some obvious drawbacks to such manual configuration. One is that it is simplya lot of work to configure all the hosts in a large network directly, especially when you consider that such hosts are not reachable over a network until they are configured.

Satellite internet- a new sense of technology
Today the world is mostly operating with help of satellites.so i posted here some of the useful information about the satellite internet access.
The satellite internet access is a wireless service that is extremely used in all over the world. But due to the non-availability of terrestrial internet access it cannot be connected.. It is also very popular among users of ‘movable’ locations.
Let us see how does these satellite internet works?
The wireless connectivity and instant access to anywhere in the world 24x7 has lead technologists to now tap on internet access via satellite! This is a world wide availability that is being sourced and includes connectivity at sea and within land vehicles. The system basically comes in three types and the variants all use the connectivity enhanced via the local satellite service.
Connectivity via special hardware components:
The internet connectivity via satellite can be tapped through interface presence, like the telephone network that is ‘public-switched’ as in the case of the squawk box applications. In this case, a physical and separate internet ‘connection’ is not required. The system operates with the support of a server-to-queue-data connectivity and includes an FTP or File Transfer Protcol. In the case of connectivity via system hardware components, the transmitting station or the teleport is supported by two important components.
The internet connection is made possible when the ISP routers are connected to the designed proxy servers. This connectivity enforces the band-width limits of the QOS or ‘quality of service’, thus enabling user traffic. This connectivity is furthered to the DVB encapsulator and then, the S modem. The DVB-S modem then transmits an RF or radio frequency to the outdoor unit, through the up converter connected via a feed line. The system components also include a block up converter, an optional low noise block converter, an optional orthomode transducer, a feed horn and a waveguide. This connectivity is routed to an Earth station, which is a setup that consists of an outdoor and indoor unit.

2012
2012 END OF THE WORLD - BELIEFS
SCIENTIFIC EXPERTS from around the world are predicting that five years from now, all life on Earth could well come to an end. Some are saying it’ll be humans that would set it off. Others believe that a natural phenomenon will be the cause. And the religious folks are saying it’ll be God himself who would press the stop button. The following are some likely arguments as to why the world would end by the year 2012.
Reason One: Mayan calendar
The first to predict 2012 as the end of the world were the Mayans, a bloodthirsty race that were good at two things -- building highly accurate astrological equipment out of stone and sacrificing virgins.
Thousands of years ago they managed to calculate the length of the lunar moon as 329.53020 days, only 34 seconds out. The Mayan calendar predicts that the earth will end on December 21, 2012. Given that they were pretty close to the mark with the lunar cycle, it’s likely they’ve got the end of the world right as well.

Nano Technology
Introduction to Nanotechnology
Nanotechnology is defined as the study and use of structures between 1 nanometer and 100 nanometers in size. To give you an idea about this is, it would take eight 100 nanometer particles side by side to match the width of a human hair.
Introduction to the Nanoparticles
Scientists have been studying and working with nano particles for centuries, but the effectiveness of their work has been hampered by their inability to see the structure of nano particles. In recent decades the development of microscopes capable of displaying particles as small as atoms has allowed scientists to see what they are working with.
Multiple Access Techniques In Cellular Systems
Hi this is an article about the Multiple Access Techniques used in the cellular systems.
The goal in the design of a cellular system is to be able to handle as many calls as possible in a given bandwidth with the specifi ed blocking probability (reliability).
Multiplexing deals with the division of the resources to create multiple channels. Multiplexing can create channels in frequency, time, etc., and the corresponding terms are then frequency division multiplexing (FDM), time division multiplexing (TDM), etc. Since the amount of spectrum available is limited, we need to fi nd ways to allow multiple users to share the available spectrum simultaneously. Shared access is used to implement a multiple access scheme when access by many users to a channel is required.

Shared access is used to implement a multiple access scheme when access by many users to a channel is required.
For example, one cancreate multiple channels using TDM, but each of these channels can be accessedby a group of users using the ALOHA multiple access scheme. The multiple access schemes can be either reservation-based or random.
Multiple access schemes allow many users to share the radio spectrum. Sharing the bandwidth effi ciently among users is one of the main objectives of multiple access schemes.
GPRS in GSM
Hi this is about the GPRS technology that is widely used in GSM Phones.
The general packet radio service (GPRS) enhances GSM data services
signifi cantly by providing end-to-end packet switched data connections. This is
particularly effi cient in Internet/intranet traffi c, where short bursts of intense data
communications are actively interspersed with relatively long periods of inactivity.
Because there is no real end-to-end connection to be established, setting up a
GPRS call is almost instantaneous and users can be continuously on-line. Users have the additional benefi ts of paying for the actual data transmitted, rather than for connection time. Because GPRS does not require any dedicated end-to-end connection, it only uses network resources and bandwidth when data is actually being transmitted. This means that a given amount of radio bandwidth can be shared effi ciently among many users simultaneously.
The next phase in the high-speed road map is the evolution of current short message service (SMS), such as smart messaging and unstructured supplementary service data (USSD), toward the new GPRS, a packet data service using TCP/IP and X.25 to offer speeds up to 115 kbps. GPRS has been standardized to optimally
support a wide range of applications ranging from very frequent transmissions of medium to large data volume. Services of GPRS have been developed to reduce connection set-up time and allow an optimum usage of radio resources. GPRS provides a packet data service for GSM where time slots on the air interface
can be assigned to GPRS over which packet data from several mobile stations is multiplexed.
HSCSD (High Speed Circuit Switching Data)
Hi this is one data transfering technology used in the GSM mobiles for internet usage.
High-speed circuit switched data (HSCSD) is a feature that enables the co-allocation of multiple full rate traffi c channels (TCH/F) of GSM into an HSCSD confi guration. The aim of HSCSD is to provide a mixture of services with different air interface user rates by a single physical layer structure. The available capacity of an HSCSD confi guration is several times the capacity of a TCH/F, leading to a significant enhancement in air interface data transfer capability.
Ushering faster data rates into the mainstream is the new speed of 14.4 kbps per time slot and HSCSD protocols that approach wireline access rates of up to 57.6 kbps by using multiple 14.4 kbps time slots. The increase from the current baseline of 9.6 kbps to 14.4 kbps is due to a nominal reduction in the error- correction overhead of the GSM radio link protocol (RLP), allowing the use of a higher data rate.
For operators, migration to HSCSD brings data into the mainstream, enabled in many cases by relatively standard software upgrades to base station (BS) and mobile switching center (MSC) equipment. Flexible air interface resource allocation allows the network to dynamically assign resources related to the air interface
usage according to the network operator’s strategy, and the end-user’s request for a change in the air interface resource allocation based on data transfer needs. The provision of the asymmetric air interface connection allows simple mobile equipment to receive data at higher rates than otherwise would be possible with a symmetric connection.
For end-users, HSCSD enables the roll-out of mainstream high-end segment services that enable faster web browsing, fi le downloads, mobile video-conference and navigation, vertical applications, telematics, and bandwidth-secure mobile local area network (LAN) access. Value-added service providers will also be able
to offer guaranteed quality of service and cost-effi cient mass-market applications, such as direct IP where users make circuit-switched data calls straight into a GSM network router connected to the Internet. To the end-user, the value-added service provider or the operator is equivalent to an Internet service provider that offers a fast, secure dial-up Internet protocol service at cheaper mobile-to-mobile rates. HSCSD is provided within the existing mobility management. Roaming is also possible. The throughput for an HSCSD connection remains constant for the duration of the call, except for interruption of transmission during handoff. The handoff is simultaneous for all time slots making up an HSCSD connection. Endusers wanting to use HSCSD have to subscribe to general bearer services. Supplementary services applicable to general bearer services can be used simultaneously with HSCSD.
Data Evolution in GSM Technology
Hi this is about the evolution in GSM Technology for data transfers.
From a radio access perspective, adding 3G capabilities to 2G systems mainly means supporting higher data rates. Possible scenarios depend on spectrum availability for the network service provider. Depending on the spectrum situation, two different migration paths can be supported:
Reframing of existing spectrum bands
New or modified spectrum bands
Two 3G radio access schemes are identifi ed to support the different spectrum scenarios:
1. Enhanced data rates for GSM evolution (EDGE) with high-level modulation in a 200 kHz TDMA channel is based on plug-in transceiver equipment, thereby allowing the migration of existing bands in small spectrum segments.
2. Universal mobile telecommunications services (UMTS) is a new radio access network based on 5 MHz WCDMA and optimized for effi cient support of 3G services. UMTS can be used in both new and existing spectra.
From a network point of view, 3G capabilities implies the addition of packet switched (PS) services, Internet access, and IP connectivity. With this approach, the existing mobile networks reuse the elements of mobility support, user authentication service handling, and circuit switched (CS) services. With packet switched services, IP connectivity can then be added to provide a mobile multimedia core network by evolving the existing mobile network.
GSM is moving to develop enhanced cutting-edge, customer-focused solutions to meet the challenges of the new millennium and 3G mobile services [29]. When GSM was fi rst introduced, no one could have predicted the dramatic growth of the Internet and the rising demand for multimedia services. These developments have brought about new challenges to the world of GSM. For GSM operators, the emphasis is now rapidly changing from that of instigating and driving the development of technology to fundamentally enabling mobile data transmission to that of improving speed, quality, simplicity, coverage, and reliability in terms of tools and services that will boost mass market take-up.

What Ford was doing at CTIA Fall 2010
As an attendant of CTIA Fall 2010, I couldn’t figure out what Ford Motor company was doing there. As it turns out, they were promoting the MyFord Touch. I got to get behind a tricked-out dashboard, and saw why they wanted to show off.
The set-up for MyFord Touch reminded me of the Earth-friendly dashboard I reported on over a year ago. I had one of their spokespersons show it to me, and I’ll do my best to convey my experience to you.
That screen that you see in the photo is a full touchscreen, and it allows the user/driver full control of Navigation, Climate, Entertainment and Phone. Each of these functions have a different color-code, accessible on the four corners of the screen. MyFord Touch also has two 4.2 inch LCD screens that flank the central speedometer for information to the driver at a glance.
Green is the color code for Navigation and it will guide you with turn-by-turn, and will even allow for vocal search. So if you say “Find Ice Cream”, and you can select several options. You can even call the place, as it links with the Phone (which is Yellow color-coded).
The Entertainment (Red color code) is also vocally controlled, and tunes can be taken from an SD card and USB port. The last color code is Blue, for Climate control.
The SYNC is available on the 2011 Edge, and will be available on the Explorer later this year.
RedMere makes some skinny HDMI cables
Most of you have probably used HDMI cable for your home theater, and this thick cable is going to be more in demand.
After all, many phones like the Nokia N8 have an HDMI port so video files on the phone can be viewed on bigger screens. If every phone has this feature, then not only will it increase the demand for HDMI cables, but create a need for them to be thinner, lighter, and more portable.
It would appear that a company called Red Mere is ahead of the curve as they are making thinner HDMI cables. Guess which one of the HDMI cable cross-sections in the photo above is a RedMere.
How is this possible? I talked to RedMere at CTIA Fall 2010, and they use some sort of chip that fits in the HDMI plug itself. They wanted to show me the chip, but they seemed to have lost it at their booth.
I’m not certain what to think of that, but I won’t hold it against the company. In fact, I think RedMere is going to have a lucrative future when everyone needs an HDMI cable. Perhaps there will come a day when all phones have an HDMI cable that can stretch and retract, and RedMere will be the supplier.
Body Organs Send Out Information To Your Phone
When going to the doctor you could find out all sorts of surprising info and usually if there’s a problem it’s been going on longer than you realize. Instead of making the problem wait until your next physical, you could always make your body text you when there’s an issue. Thanks to some researchers at the Dutch facility, IMEC, that could be very possible.
Having some experience with surprise problems, (although having select parts of your organs sending out text messages might be an idea that some people would take getting used to) this would have come in very handy a couple months ago. I had an extremely close call with my gallbladder, close enough that the doctor mentioned that death would have been a distinct possibility had I not stumbled into the hospital that day. Oops. See, texting insides are not so bad. It uses Human++ BAN, which is a wireless body area network. It’ll send you texts that can be shared with your doctor and an alarm will sound should any of the readings come back abnormal. Of course, this will not work with all body organs at the moment, but who are we to say that things won’t change in the future?
Halo Intersceptor is a car, copter, plane, and boat
I’m sure you are probably thinking that this is a pretty cool car. It sort of reminds me of the futuristic Audi that Will Smith drove around in I, Robot.
This concept auto, known as the Halo Intersceptor, is one of the most advanced cars that I have ever seen. In fact, it isn’t just a car, but a plane, boat, and helicopter. Yes, that does sound more like a cartoon than an actual car. Just to let you know, the Halo Interceptor doesn’t have any hidden wings or rotors like some spy car on M.A.S.K. That was a cartoon from the eighties, in case you don’t get that reference. Think about what would happen if G.I. Joe and Transformers were mixed in a blender and you would get M.A.S.K..
The way the Halo Intersceptor works is that the car parks and locks itself in a different chassis. There is a video after the jump if you want to see it in action. It is pretty neat, and it’s definitely something Batman if he didn’t mind having the Batmobile being used for the Bat-plane, the Bat-copter, and the Bat-boat.
I would imagine James Bond would get a kick out of this too. This is one of those things that I would have to see before I believed it.

Over the years we’ve reported on some pretty cool swimming pool gadgets, from huge infinity pools to motorised bumper boats and many more. This next one is something special, it’s an outdoor terrace that converts into an indoor pool (yes you did read that correctly). Below is a photo before (in terrace mode) whilst above shows the terrace mid transformation.
To fully appreciate it you need to check out the following video:

Biometric Vehicle Starter
It used to be the only way to start up a car was with that shiny key, but now there are other options. The most common alternative is pushing a button. Well if you’re not a fan of that route, now you can make sure you’re the only one that can start your car. Instead of pushing buttons or turning a key, you just have to put your pointer finger right up to that tiny scanner. If you’d like to allow a couple of other people to drive your car, you can have their fingerprints stored in the database.
Should you have a thief that’s watched too many spy movies and cuts off your finger in order to use it for the car, they’ll still be hosed. After the fingerprint is confirmed it’ll then check for a pulse, blood pressure and body temperature, cut off fingers don’t have a pulse I’m afraid. It even goes as far as to scan the capillary patterns underneath of the skin. Despite that it checks several things, it won’t actually take long for all that information to be stored. Being such an in depth gadget, this isn’t exactly a cheap item. No, you’ll get stuck paying $699.95 for it at Sky Mall.
