pRSSReader – Windows Mobile RSS Reader

March 14, 2007 by Leave a Comment

pRSSReader
RSS has become an efficient way of reading information from many sources on the internet but by keeping them all in the same place. pRSSReader is a great peice of software written for Windows Mobile which allows you to download your latest feeds to your Pocket PC. An extra bonus feature about this software is that it is free at the moment. It is compatible with Pocket PC 2002 up to Windows Mobile 5 but unfortunatly now with Smartphone Edition. No doubt an update will happen soon to sort this as it would make sense to have the smartphone edition connect via GSM to get the RSS feeds.

Features built in allow you to manage your reads, cache images with in feeds for reading on the road, prozy support, summaries and more. For full details, follow the link below.

Worlds Fastest Handheld

February 17, 2007 by 1 Comment

DataWind PocketSurfer
The worlds fastest handheld seems to be a bold claim although they could just be right 🙂 DataWinds PocketSurfer 2 needs 7 – 9 seconds to fully load a web page. It features a QWERTY keyboard and a wide screen display. To access the screen and keyboard you flip the device open in what looks to be a similar way to the old PSION series 3a. The device uses windows internet explorer but does not use the windows mobile OS. Using the server version of IE it allows for a full web browser experience which is a great way forwards. Over all it looks like a very sleek phone which if the specs match is a nice step forwards in the mobile market.

Wii Phone

Wii Phone
Rumours are spreading over the internet about a new Wii Phone that could be hitting the market. It appears that a microphone has been included in the new patents for the wiimote which could allow for VoIP in games, and maybe out of games also. Another option is the chance to sing along to games too although that doesnt sound like the most interesting use for the mic.

And if you are wondering what the picture above is then do not get too excited as it’s just a photoshopped image to show what it “might” look like 😉

MySpace on your Mobile
According to BusinessWeek, social networking sites such as MySpace are going to be heading towards your mobile phone soon. Vodafone have announced that they will be deploying a service to allow mobile phones to connect to various social networking sites. This will help boost data usage of it’s service from a target audience where the majority of them have a mobile phone and also are keen users of social networking sites. Mobile access tends to struggle a bit because of small screens and costs of accessing services. However, no doubt one day the right balance will be found and mobiles will be useful for a lot more then MP3 and watching news clips on planet 3.

NIKON Lens
The Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM is a wide angle zoom lens for NIKON DSLR cameras. If you ever find your self in a tight spot and unable to capture the picture you wanted due to a lack of space to step back, then this lens could be for you. Stephenfung.net recently put up a comparison picture with a regular lens compared to this wide angle lens. I was amazed at how much extra was caught in the shot. Check out the pictures over at Stephen’s blog to see what the difference is.

Wifi Liberator

February 6, 2007 by Leave a Comment

Wifi Liberator
The Wifi Liverator is a USB dongle that makes your wireless internet service usable by the public. If you are using a paying type service in a hotel for example, then you can plug the liberator in to your laptop and this creates a private network for others to share the wireless connection if they do not have an account with the provider. No doubt this will be classed as bad by the ISP’s. I am not sure I could ever use this though. Wifi is not too secure and even less secure in public hotspots. I personally wouldnt want to add even more risk to the equation by allowing others to share with me direct an internet connection. I will be passing on this but still thought I would share to let you share your comments on if you think sharing wifi should be or should not be allowed. There is no doubt that companies need to lower their wifi access costs, but I am not sure this is the best way yet to fight that cause 🙂

Kensington Vo200 IP Phone

Kensington Vo200 IP Phone
Technology has revolutionised in many areas. VoIP phones have become more and more in demand as wireless technology has spread and become more accessible. A question asked by many is how VoIP can help those on the move while we have mobile phones that in essence do the same job. VoIP offers consumers what they are demanding from mobile phone networks, and that is cheap calls to and from anywhere across the globe and reliable networks. Although VoIP is not as fully accessible as a mobile network, this gap is quite quickly closing as more and more wireless hotspots appear. So in principle, the structure is already there and will soon provide complete coverage around the globe.
