compocell *Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290

2011-09-11T02:54:00.000-07:00

Compocell *If you're looking for fun in-camera extras and editing tools in a point-and-shoot digital camera, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is a great option. A wide-angle lens, a sharp 3-inch LCD screen, and a 720p HD movie mode also add to its overall appeal, but we have seen better image quality from similarly priced cameras in 2009.
The 12-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-W290 ($250 as of 7/10/2009) has a 5X optical-zoom Carl Zeiss lens, starting at 28mm on the wide-angle end to 140mm on the telephoto end. It's a bit thicker than many competing point-and-shoots, but still pocketable: about 4 inches wide, 2.5 inches high, and an inch deep.
Overall image quality was rated as Good, according to PC World Test Center jury evaluations. The W290 fared well in terms of overall exposure in our tests, but image sharpness and distortion were shortcomings. The identically priced Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS25, for example, outscored this Sony in most imaging categories.
In informal hands-on tests, I found that the W290 takes good high-ISO shots in low light, although noise is visible at ISO 3200 and ISO 1600--not enough to ruin the shots, however. The W290 also takes about a second or more to save photos at high-ISO, low-light settings. During hands-on tests, it also became evident that the Cyber-shot W290's optical image stabilization is effective with a small level of shake, but struggled to take a sharp image when the camera was shaken more vigorously.
The W290 has only ten scene modes, which is a low count compared with competitors in its price range, but that also means it's bloat-free: You get all the essential and often-used modes, such as high ISO, Landscape, Snow, Fireworks, and Soft Focus.
As usual with Sony cameras, the camera settings are easily accessible via a mode dial on the back, and the user interface is helped by the excellent and intuitive on-screen menus. What's more, this model has a dedicated "Smile Shutter" button on the top of the camera (next to the shutter button); this lets you quickly turn on the camera's smile-triggered shutter feature. Smile Shutter automatically takes a picture once the subject smiles, and you can even adjust the sensitivity of the smile trigger in the camera.
The smile-triggered shutter is pretty commonplace among point-and-shoots these days, but a few features in the W290 set it apart from other pocket cameras. First and foremost is the range of creative image-editing features you get in this camera. Instead of applying "live" effects to your photos, many of these features can be applied after you take your shots: You can add fish-eye effects, radial blur, or red-eye correction; isolate one color in your photos while turning the rest of the image black and white; and apply a "retro" effect that mimics a pinhole camera.
But by far the weirdest--and the most fun--in-camera feature is the "Happy Faces" mode, which lets you add a fake smile to underwhelmed photo subjects. You can see for yourself how the "Happy Faces" mode can put a smile on the face of the Mona Lisa and on a serious-looking Barack Obama.
The advantage to adding these effects after your shots are taken is that you preserve the original image; cameras such as Panasonic's Lumix DMC-FS25 and Canon's PowerShot SD780 IS have pinhole-camera simulators and color-isolation modes, respectively, but both cameras apply those effects to the source image as it's being shot.
Battery life is a huge plus: the Cyber-shot DSC-W290 fired off 342 shots on a single charge of its lithium ion battery like sony NP-F550 battery, sony NP-FR1 battery, sony NP-FM50 battery, sony NP-FM51 battery, sony NP-F10 battery, sony NP-FE1 battery, sony DSC-T7 battery, good enough for a PC World Test Center score of Very Good. Unfortunately, you need to remove the battery from the camera to charge it; the camera comes with a plug-in battery charger.
The button layout is straight-forward: On top of the camera are the power button, the shutter button, and the Smile Shutter button. On the back, next to the big and clear 3-inch LCD, are the zoom toggle, the mode dial, the playback button, and a four-way directional pad for menu navigation (doubling as one-touch access to the flash settings, macro mode, self timer, and display settings), as well as a menu button and a delete button. One lack: The camera has no optical viewfinder.
On the bottom of the camera is the A/V-out port for transferring photos and movies to your PC; unfortunately, it's a proprietary connector on the camera's side of things, so you can't swap in a mini-USB or micro-USB cable for that task. Another downside is the plastic battery door on the bottom of the camera--it feels as if it could snap off way too easily. Besides the battery itself, this compartment holds another proprietary item: a Memory Stick storage slot. (You don't get a Memory Stick card with the camera.)
In addition to the scene modes, four top-level shooting modes are also accessible from the mode dial. Easy Auto Mode automatically optimizes in-camera settings for a scene and hides all the more-complicated settings from the shooter. Intelligent Auto Mode combines automatic scene optimization, optical stabilization, and face detection. Program Mode lets you adjust white balance, exposure compensation, dynamic range settings, ISO levels, and metering options; however, you don't get anything in the way of shutter and aperture controls, but that's common in a camera of this price and size. Lastly, Movie Mode lets you shoot 720p high-definition clips or 640-by-480 standard-definition clips, both as MPEG-4 files at 30 frames per second. You can't use the zoom in movie mode, which is common in point-and-shoots.
The Cyber-shot W290 may not have the sharpest image quality in its price range, but casual photographers looking for a big display, ease of use, and good battery life will likely be pleased with it. Those looking for fun in-camera features and editing tools will be delighted.

compocel *Dell XPS M1210

2011-09-11T02:49:00.000-07:00

compocell *If you don't mind carrying a little more weight that other full featured ultraportables, Dell's XPS M1210 provides very strong performance with excellent features. It would still be nice to see Dell offer a bit more on the base configurations.
Pros
•Large Hard Drive
•Strong Performance
•Optional Cellular Modems
•Integrated Webcam
Cons
•DVD Burner Not Standard
•Pretty Heavy for an Ultraportable
Description
•Intel Core 2 Duo T5600 Dual Core Mobile Processor
•1GB PC2-5300 DDR2 Memory
•120GB 5400rpm SATA Hard Drive
•24x CD-RW/DVD Combo Drive
•12.1" WXGA (1280x800) LCD and Intel GMA 950 Integrated Graphics with 1.3MP Webcam
•v.92 56Kbps Modem, Gigabit Ethernet and 802.11a/b/g Wireless
•Optional Sprint, Verizon or Cingular Wireless Modem
•Four USB 2.0, One FireWire, ExpressCard/54, Type II PC Card and 5-in-1 Card Reader
•11.7" x 8.7" x 1.2" @ 4.4 lbs.
•Vista Home Premium, MS Works and Norton Internet Security
While the Dell XPS M1210 notebook has the dimensions of an ultraportable notebook, it weighs a bit more than the average ultraportable of similar dimensions. This is likely due to the number of features they pack into the system and the solid magnesium alloy shell that they use to protect it.
Most ultraportables sacrifice some performance in order to reduce the size and increase the life of battery such as dell Latitude D620 battery, dell 312-0386 battery, dell PC764 battery, dell TD175 battery, dell Precision M65 battery, dell DF230 battery, dell Latitude D531 battery, dell Latitude D820 battery, dell Latitude D830 battery, dell MM165 battery. The XPS M1210 is designed as a performance notebook and as such it has some features that set it apart. It is based around the Intel Core 2 Duo 64-bit processors rather than on the low voltage 32-bit Core Duos. This gives it an edge in terms of performance but it does increase its power draw as well. The 1GB of PC2-5300 DDR2 memory helps keep this notebook running smoothly and its necessary for the Vista Home Premium OS Dell has installed.
Storage is mixed for the XPS M1210. While the hard drive provides a very large 120GB of storage space rarely seen in an ultraportable, Dell elects to offer a 24x CD-RW/DVD combo drive rather than a full blown DVD burner. Since it is an internal unit, that does set it above many other ultraportables, but those that do integrate a drive tend to come with the DVD burner standard.
Another feature that is optional but great for the business traveler is the cellular modems. Most companies offer a unit that will only work with a single cell phone provider. Dell offers modems from Sprint, Cingular and Verizon that provides more options for the consumers in selecting a cellular service provider.

Sony previews new Vaios with Windows 7

2011-09-11T02:42:00.000-07:00

compocell *Sony introduced three new Vaio PCs on Oct. 8, each of which will run the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system.
The Sony Vaio L Touch HD PC/TV is a 24-inch multitouch widescreen, with a resolution of 1,920 by 1,080. As the name implies, it's as much PC as television, with an optional Blu-ray disc drive, an optional built-in tuner and a terabyte of storage.
"The L Series is the ultimate multimedia hub--it's your PC, HDTV and DVR in one compact, stylish device," said Sony Senior Vice President Mike Abary in a statement. "And with cutting-edge features such as multitouch, it's ideal for media lovers who appreciate HD performance and cutting-edge technology."
The L Touch comes with Windows 7 Home Premium or Professional 64-bit operating systems, and offers an Intel Core 2 Quad processor and dedicated Nvidia GeForce series graphics card. There's built-in 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi, and it's compatible with a wireless router. Users can hang it on a wall or position it on an adjustable stand, and while some models come with a wireless keyboard, mouse and remote control, essentially anything that can be done with a mouse can be done with a finger.
The L Touch--which comes a day after Gateway introduced its ZX Series of touch-screen PC-cum-TV devices--is now available for preorder online, and will arrive in stores next month at a starting price of approximately $USD 1,300.
Also introduced Oct. 8 is the Vaio X Series, a 1.6-pound ultramobile notebook that Sony is calling the world's lightest. It measures approximately 11 inches by 7.3 inches and just over half an inch thin, and it features a (diagonal) 11.1-inch screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio and a durable, scratch-resistant LCD display. LED backlight technology is said to make for 100 percent color saturation.
There's built-in Verizon Wireless Mobile Broadband, 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. It also comes with a standard battery, offering 3.5 hours of juice, and a presumably heavier super-extended capacity battery such as Sony PCGA-BP1N battery, Sony PCGA-BP2NX battery, Sony PCGA-BP2NY battery, Sony PCGA-BP2R battery, Sony PCGA-BP2S battery, Sony PCGA-BP2T battery, Sony PCGA-BP2V battery, Sony PCGA-BP4V battery, Sony PCGA-BP71 battery, Sony VGP-BPS2 battery, offering 14 hours of power.
There's a solid-state hard drive and built-in GPS. Sony is stingy on the processor details, except to offer that there's an Intel processor with speeds of 2GHz, L2 cache of 512KB and a front-side bus speed of 533MHz. Graphics come courtesy of a Mobile Intel Hub US15W chip set and an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 500 processor.
"It's one thing to make a notebook thin, but when you consider the fact that the X Series also boasts industry-leading battery life and wireless WAN--you now have a game changer, altering the way people use and think about their PC," said Abary.
The X Series will come in black or gold, with a starting price of $1,300. It can be preordered now and will arrive in stores in November.
Last but not least is the colorful CW Series of laptops, with an emphasis on multimedia. They feature a 14-inch widescreen display with a 16:9 aspect ratio, an optional Blu-ray disc drive, HDMI output and Vaio Movie Story software for quickly editing movies and slideshows. Graphics are handled by a Nvidia GeForce dedicated graphics card.
The CW Series notebooks, which start at $780 and will arrive at the end of the month, are available in fiery red, poppy pink, icy white, jet black and indigo purple.

Android As Compared To Iphone And App Scenario

2011-09-10T18:53:00.000-07:00

compocell *The world of smart phones is still in its infancy and the two major players, Android and iPhone are at logger heads with each other. The comparison of the two is based primarily on the hardware components, operating system and the usability. The differences between the two need a close observation because they affect the end users as well as the developers.

The Source:
The source of Android is open while that of the iPhone is closed. Android is a product of a joint alliance headed by Google, the undisputed search engine king. Since the people are slowly turning off from the laptops and the PCs and moving towards the smart phones, Google likes its supremacy to be maintained in the world of smart phones too. Android, being open source and system is preferred and has a support of a large number of developers. On the other hand Apple Inc., the manufacturers of iPhone have a closed system in which the developer has to first submit the application to the Apple Applications store can only sold after its approval by Apple Inc. The variety of application at the Android is very high because the applications are not subject to screening. The section for comments and rating by the community of developers helps the user to decide whether to buy that application or not. In case of Apple Inc. since the applications are subject to screening the stress for checking the application is less on the part of the application buyer.

Money Back:
The Android offers a money back scheme if you uninstall the application within 24 hours of purchase. On the contrary this sort of money back scheme is not offered in case of iPhone. This implies that if you buy a paid Android application and do not find it suitable you can uninstall it within 24 hours and claim full refund. In case of Apple the buyer has to fully study the application and utility before placing the order. This proves that Android has more concern for the user than the Apple Inc.

Fee:
The cost of developing an application is affected by the expenses incurred by the developer. When the developer wants to sign up for the Android market he/she has to spend $25 while in case of Apple Inc., he/she has to shell out $99. The difference is quite big but the biggest impact is done by the conditions applicable. When you submit the application there is no assurance of the application is getting published. Apple Inc., and Android, both retain 30% of the proceeds but the utility of this money make a big difference. While Apple retains the money for itself, Android pays it to the carriers of wireless. This implies that the wireless carriers would extend more support to the Android applications.

But Could Play XPERIA enthusiasts meet high expectations? Legal chance to try out Android 2.3 Gingerbread some time ago. Here are some important notes can be found from the mobile game.

Design

Users can set your phone to automatically activate this feature by simply shifting the Xperia Play console his slide. But if you do not want this application is activated, you just set it back on the phone settings.

Games

Before you can play one of the 5 games that are available, you must download the game files in question is quite large in size. Make sure you have good data package or connected with wi-fi access is tight so the download process does not last too long or fail in the middle of the road.

Play console slides Xperia feels stable enough to be grasped. In addition, the buttons on the mobile phone gaming is also convenient to be operated so that the user will have the optimal gaming experience.

Camera
Play Xperia include a camera with high resolution, ie 5 megapixels. Indeed, the Arc has not matched that achieved the Xperia camera 8 megapixels, but the resulting image is quite satisfying nonetheless.

The color and sharpness of images from photographs outdoors is very qualified, as always offered by mobile phones Sony Ericsson others. However, users must perform a number of settings to get the color and sharpness of the image the same when in the room. It is obviously quite inconvenient for the user.

What distinguishes the Xperia Play of 'cousins' Media Server is an application that allows users to access content in mobile phones in the local network, so you can stream video in a larger PC screen simply by doing some of the settings.

Overall, the Xperia Play is actually quite satisfying as a smartphone.

compocell-103*Tyrant Alarm Clock Will Ruin Your Life

2011-09-07T21:29:00.000-07:00

compocell-103*The Tyrant Clock, designed by Alice Wang has to be the meanest alarm clock concept ever invented. Some alarm clocks make a terribly annoying noise or require you to complete a physical task to shut them off. There’s even some now that will shake your bed until you’re up. Not the Tyrant Clock. This clock takes waking up into pure psychological warfare territory. You’re not going to hear many alarm clocks called pure diabolical evil but there you go, you just did.

The clock syncs up with your cell phone, randomly goes through your contact list, and then calls someone different every three minutes after your intended wake up time. It displays in a large size the name of the person who’s about to get their own wake up call from you. The potential for it to call someone and in some way completely ruin your life is huge. A disaster waiting to happen, which would make it the ideal alarm clock.

compocell-103*A camera

2011-09-07T21:07:00.000-07:00

compocell-103*A camera is a device that records and stores images. These images may be still photographs or moving images such as videos or movies. The term camera comes from the camera obscura (Latin for "dark chamber"), an early mechanism for projecting images. The modern camera evolved from the camera obscura.

Cameras may work with the light of the visible spectrum or with other portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. A camera generally consists of an enclosed hollow with an opening (aperture) at one end for light to enter, and a recording or viewing surface for capturing the light at the other end. A majority of cameras have a lens positioned in front of the camera's opening to gather the incoming light and focus all or part of the image on the recording surface. The diameter of the aperture is often controlled by a diaphragm mechanism, but some cameras have a fixed-size aperture. Most 20th century cameras used photographic film as a recording surface, while the majority of new ones now use an electronic image sensor.

The still camera takes one photo each time the user presses the shutter button. A typical movie camera continuously takes 24 film frames per second as long as the user holds down the shutter button, or until the shutter button is pressed a second time.

From its inception, the camera has been instrumental in the recording of still images from then-present surroundings, and further modifications led to the development of motion picture sequences in the late 19th century. Cameras and the exhibition of camera-captured images are widely used in both professional and consumer settings in the 21st century for both mass and interpersonal communication purposes.

compocell-103 * Access Your Computer Files Anytime, Anywhere

2011-09-07T20:49:00.000-07:00

compocell-103*Your files are everywhere. Digital photos and music are on the home computer, your documents are saved on the laptop and the files related to the project you are working on are stored on your office desktop.

Wouldn’t it be nice, and also productive, if you could access all your documents, photos, music and other files from any computer or mobile device without having to use USB flash drives or DVDs?

A popular approach would be using an online file storage service – like Dropbox or Windows Live Mesh – and uploading all your important and frequently-needed files to the web (also known as the cloud). Once the files are online, you’ll be able to access them from any other computer as long as it is connected to the Internet.

There are however certain downsides to cloud-based storage solutions. One, they only offer a limited amount of storage space which may not always be enough for all your files.

For instance, a free account with Dropbox offers two Gigabytes of storage space, though you can upgrade to 50GB for $9.99 per month.

The other limiting factor is how do you decide which files and folders should be sent to the cloud. You may have uploaded your entire “My Documents” folder online but what if you want to access a file that’s saved on the desktop of your office computer? And even if you have opted for an account with adequate storage space, uploading gigabytes of data to the cloud can take several days, if not weeks, on a good Internet connection.

An alternative solution would be to set up your own personal cloud using software like Tonido or Pogoplug. You won’t have to upload any files to the web, yet you’ll be able to access them all from any other computer or mobile device. The files will get served directly from your computer and thus there are no storage limits to worry about – you’ll have access to each and every file no matter where they are stored on the computer.

Pogoplug works something like this: You first install the Pogoplug software on your computer and then mark the folder or folders that you would like to access remotely. Once the initial configuration is complete, you can access the files of this computer from any other computer via the Pogoplug Web site or with the help of mobile apps that are available for iPhone, iPad and Android phones.

You can also install the Pogoplug software on multiple computers and access all their files on your mobile phone or the desktop browser under a common web interface. Pogoplug is available as a free download for Windows, Mac and Linux systems.

Tonido offers similar features as Pogoplug but in addition to iOS and Android, its apps are also available for BlackBerry and Windows Phones. However, a limitation with Tonido is that it requires you to create separate accounts for every computer, which isn’t very convenient.

These personal cloud services access data directly from your computer, so users have to ensure their computers are always switched on and connected to the Internet in order to access files from other machines. Cloud storage based services, on the other hand, have no such limitations.

If you have a limited number of files and documents that you would like to access from other “remote” computers, cloud-storage services like Dropbox are the way to go. However, if you have large amount of data or if your hard-drive is in a fairly unorganized state with important files spread across multiple folders, a personal cloud service like Pogoplug could be a better choice. And remember, make sure that you don’t share your credentials with anyone, otherwise they too would be able to access your computer from their browsers.
