A few months back, Lenova announced the IdeaPad S12 netbook that was going to run the NVIDIA Ion chip set. We now hear that they have delayed shipping of the unit as they are waiting for Windows 7 to be launched.

The IdeaPad S12 runs an Intel Atom N270 processor and uses the NVIDIA GeForce 9400 graphics chip. This particular model with these specs will cost more than a standard version running just the Intel Atom processor. [Read more…]

The Varta Digital battery charger is a device that acts as a normal battery charger in that you plug it in to the wall to charge AA and AAA batteries. However, it also has a 12V car adapter so that you can charge batteries on the go. To make even more useful the Varta also has a USB port that allows you to use your PC to charge the batteries.
Another interesting feature is that you can also top up your MP3 player via the Varta’s USB port. [Read more…]
Vonage, the VoIP company, are updating their services for those customer paying for the $24.99/month plan. The first new feature called Vonage World will allow unlimited calls across the world to over 60 countries. This will cover about 4.5 billion people (2/3 of the population). Previously unlimited calls were allowed just for the US, Canada and 5 other European countries. Bumping that up to over 60 is a fantastic move.
Michael said, “That’s really 60 whole countries, unlike some competitors who offer specific destinations or cities within a country. When we say it’s a country that is included for unlimited we mean every place within the borders of that country. These countries represent nearly two-thirds of the world’s population.”
This bat cave home cinema was built by Frankston HiFi and was built from the ground up starting right at the carpet. Walls we then created carefully to make them look as realistic as possible. The room measures 26ft x 18ft making it fairly large.
On the technical side of things the bat cave cinema has a 10ft curved screen along with a communications room that holds all the audio and video equipment needed to run the room. A remote controlled pneumatic sliding door allows access to the room when needed although there are no poles to slide down for access. [Read more…]
