Kobo Mini for $49.99

2012-11-26T17:46:00.000-08:00

I got Kobo mini few days ago on 22/11/2012 at my Cobourg - Coles - Northumberland Mall
price just right... $49.99
... hope for love at first side... but no luck...
but it have few problems
1. problems reading my pdf files - could not open any of my pdf files
2. inside the box I see offer first book 90% off - never receive this offer 90% off - first book- when I activated my Kobo mini... never receive it on my Kobo screen or in my email account - when I call Kobo support line and ask where is my 90%off coupon for my first book- I got reply if you did not receive this offer/coupon it's your problem , not a Kobo problem...
3. ghosting of the prev. pages still on the screen after page turn...
4. Wifi indicator gives error...on the screen 1 bar, even my other Wifi devices show strong Wifi connection 4-5 bars on the screen...
Kobo mini price is right, but I would not recommend it for day to day use... for reading pdf files, Kobo mini for kids maybe, Anyway after trying loading and changing/modifying/converting my pdf files for few days and could not get them to work or open them inside my Kobo mini - I decided - Kobo mini not for me, as I do value my time - today 26/11/2012 I call - Cobourg - Coles - Northumberland Mall the and ask if I could return my Kobo mini - got reply - if you open box - our policy no return/or refund... as I could not use Kobo mini to read my pdf files or return for refund... I got myself a nice $49.99 plus tax door stopper... please note - I do know - per Canadian law any retail place- do not have to accept returns or request for refund... on open or un-open items... maybe other will have better luck with Kobo mini... I do not... Nor I recommend Kobo mini to others due to the lack or quality of the Kobo customer service and ability to read user created pdf files... or clearly defined return/refind policy on the Coles receipt...

As Network Security/IT Security from time to time
I able to get my hands on latest and Greatest Security Gear – new AVN801 -Push Video All-In-One HD IP Camera for security budget minded consumer or CIO/CEO of the large company…

Now let take a look at what this IP camera could deliver:
PUSH VIDEO Yes
Human Detection Yes
MIC. Yes
Alarm I/O Yes
Event Record (duration) 5, 10, 20, 40 sec. Selectable Yes
Some one could say oh - NEW AVN801 -Push Video All-In-One HD IP Camera is economically priced but trust me it could deliver and outperform more expensive models by D-link and others…
(End User or Corporate CIO/CEO when looking for Security Solution should take a note with new AVTECH AVN801 -Push Video All-In-One HD IP Camera AVTECH OFFERS FREE SOFTWARE (INCLUDING FUTURE UPDATES)- EXCELLENT OPTION AS AFTER PURCHASING CAMERA YOU NEVER HAVE TO PAY AGAIN FOR ANYTHING)

My first impression of this camera solid quality strong but light plastic body with white color on the device and mounting parts
Take a look at the picture…

Well engineered and designed.
Small but solid build not really heavy… if you compare it to the Window Smart Phone
Shipped out in nice little box with a lot of the information and setup info all over the box…
Here is few pick of the box

Items inside

Included: AC Power Adapter for North America, AVN801 -Push Video All-In-One HD IP Camera by AVTECH ,

AVN801 Manual: http://www.surveillance-download.com/user/n801.swf

Basic mounting hardware: mounting bracket with screws in the white box.

In my opinion AVTECH gives you total solution for the economical price
Just install/set-up, plug and go – you are protected with your own personal security…
Manual is well written, and includes all necessary information for easy simple setup on
PC with access the default IP address of the AVN801 -Push Video All-In-One HD IP Camera with different OS.

Simple way for new pc/Mac user to set up IPCAM with out any need to call Tech Support.
Here is picture how it would look assembled

AVN801 -Push Video All-In-One HD IP Camera Camera by AVTECH is smaller than my Smart Phone but
AVN801 rich on the features:

– Since AVN801 is all-in-one type. I do recommend for users to use AVN801 with EagleEyes software to do all setting, operation, and backup. - http://www.surveillance-download.com/user/n801.swf

For Dimension please take a look at the pick where AVN801 is with smart phone by it side…
Front of the AVN801

Back of the AVN801

I connectedAVN801 to my network via SAPIDO Wireless 3 in 1 Pocket N+ Broadband Router (RB-1602), logged in and configure it.
AVN801 have very easy to use simple user interface and it do works well with Safari, Opera and IE9… - Remind me of my first router install, simple and easy.
AVN801 do support both ActiveX and QuickTime format, as with all IP camera’s video
Do get a bit of lag but it around but in my opinion it less than half a second or less for me it was barely noticeable…

In my company corporate security environment I tested AVN801 (as extra add on to our layer of security) with Ipod touch 4th gen and Android based Smart Phone
Easy simple Apps install (Check (monitor/streaming) + Control the AVN801 ) for Ipod Touch and Android phone.

I like the quality of the pictures and videos/audio
Here is sample when I try to use camera outside security camera with Push Video:

If the AVN801 spark your interest you could see more on YouTube AVTECH introduction for EagleEyes on mobile device.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MS9kNScyPqo
I tested and monitor my Co. cubical area when I was away (to see who is using my pen) via Push Video notification anytime someone entering my private cubical area
I did try it on my family and family pet – my Bird - Detection & Tracking and assess control for the door of bird room via attaching external door I/O to the back of the AVN801
Take a look at the picture.

Also you could use it as security camera with remote monitoring plus option to attach compatible External I/O to monitor door/or windows opening away from the camera viewing angle… (Excellent option for Home/Corporate Security)
In my case I use door external I/O to see if any one troubling my bird with opening and closing door away from the camera viewing angle – while I’m away…
When my wife open door
Door Alarm External I/O get triggered and I get Push Video on my phone – all happening in real time as event infolding right before my eyes on the screen of my Android phone…( I could see my bird is safe in the cage – it my wife came to feed her.)
Also I could hear my bird screaming demanding clean water...

Myself as visual person I would like to mention few options I really like:

Event Record (duration) 5, 10, 20, 40 sec. Selectable and 10MB space to store important events inside camera
Option to have Alarm I/O sensor attached
Mic builds in for one-way communication.

On the final note: AVN801 -Push Video All-In-One HD IP Camera is good home or corporate security solutions for anyone… who want Security for the right economical price. I do recommend it as an economical IP camera total security solution at the present time…

I won this RAM as from Kingston Technology Canada - 1 x HyperX 8G Plug and Play (kit of 2)

2011-12-13T16:29:00.000-08:00

I won this RAM as from Kingston Technology Canada - 1 x HyperX 8G Plug and Play (kit of 2) -

thank you Kingston Technology Canada for my price and fast shipment...

RAM arrived properly packed in the antistatic case ( case is good to keep laptop ram or regular size pc ram - good idea to preserve environment with less plastic

if production line get changed from pc ram to laptop ram or Vice versa )

I opened my laptop put Ram -in - it immediately recognized the memory and installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bits... -Installation was a breeze (as long as you have the tools to open the bottom of the laptop, of course)...

I did not believe my eyes laptop loaded up OS really fast, and after I could run XP in virtual environment really fast

I did notice performance and loading up to 55% faster - had improved productivity. I now can work with all of my memory eating applications open without problem, and I've noticed great improvement in web surfing and just general use of the computer. I am VERY pleased! - When I opened Photoshop Elements 9, the response almost jumped off the page! What a difference! Every action snappy and swift. An amazing difference.

less heat under laptop - as with Kingston quality Ram - I suspect it got good heat dispersion (Kingston Technology on the outside the RAM chip -heatsinks) in the Ram area.

Not one lockup/freeze or problem of any kind. Programs are faster in general and I don't worry about closing applications any more.

I can't recommend the Kingston Technology RAM high enough...

Computer Incident Response and Product Security

By Damir Rajnovic.
Published by Cisco Press.
Series: Networking Technology: Security.
Published: Dec 6, 2010
Copyright 2011
Dimensions: 7-3/8″ x 9-1/8″
Pages: 256
Edition: 1st

This is a good little book as a reference when dealing with the after effects and investigation of a security breach in your company s network. I would recommend this book as a manual for a network security admin or a student in the field of the forensic IT.
The book provides a good overview of the security topic and is up to date. Keep in mind the book is written from the point of view of a Cisco employee; nevertheless, the author gives the reader a manual and practical guide on how to setup and run a security incident response team. The book gives true to life examples and training to help in a job in network security

100 SOA Questions: Asked and Answered

2011-06-22T17:30:00.000-07:00

This book is right on the money: well-organized and written in easy-to-understand language. Each question and answer is fully explained. SOA implementation is not an easy or simple to understand process, but the authors allow the reader to feel comfortable with SOA. The structure of the book captured and kept my attention, to the very last question. I would highly recommend this book to any CTO or IT college student. This book is a great and informational read, whether for technical or non-technical readers.

IT Systems Management, 2nd Edition review

2011-06-20T08:59:00.000-07:00

This is an excellent, well-written, easy-to-read and -understand operational guide with practical tips and ideas for a new generation of IT manager. New ideas and technology quickly change concepts in IT systems management, and this book is up to date on the current ideas and technology. It would be a great desk reference for IT managers.

Even students, future IT managers, would benefit from using this as a text book, as it offers real life examples relevant to the IT systems management and mainframe environment, including legacy systems. I trust the most important benefit of this book is that it will help reduce your IT operational costs and, if properly comprehended, will give the reader the ability to use new technology to manage IT systems more efficiently and effectively.

For Dimension please take a look at the pick where AVN80X is in the middle between two smart phones… Front of the AVN80X

Back of the AVN80X

I connectedAVN80X to my network via SAPIDO Wireless 3 in 1 Pocket N+ Broadband Router (RB-1602), logged in and configure.

AVN80X have very easy to use simple user interface and it do works well with Safari, Opera and IE9... Remind me of my first router install, simple and easy.

AVN80X do support both ActiveX and QuickTime format, as with all IP camera's video

Do get a bit of lag but it around but in my opinion it less than one second barely noticeable…

In my company corporate security environment I testedAVN80X (as extra add on to our layer of security) with Ipod touch 4th gen and Android based Smart Phone

easy simple Apps install (Check (monitor/streaming) + Control theAVN80X ) for Ipod Touch and smart phone.

I like the quality of the pictures and videos/audio

I can control the digital PTZusing my fingers. Also I could clearly hear the audio, so I have a fully functional - mobile HD video/audio- surveillance system in the palm of my hand.

if the option DPTZ spark your interest you could see more on YouTube AVTECH introduction for EagleEyes on mobile device.

really good video

I tested and monitor my Co. cubical area when I was away (to see who is using my pen) and I did try it on my family and family pets Detection & Tracking and assess control for the front door pet door sensor.

I could see theAVN80X automatically locate the brother face in the frame, zoom in, and follow it. - good safe option to monitor guest or family member even under low light condition the quality of the picture and video pretty good as Live MOS Sensor - - gives you an extremely clear and detailed picture. - The quality of the picture was great even in a low-light setting. Even with out any light in the room -AVN80X built in White LED on the front produces an enough light that can illuminate objects in total darkness at least twenty feet or more in front of it.

I did try to enabled Digital Smart Zoom, this feature did allow me to leave the controls, and the AVTECHAVN80X could zoom in on the dog movements as motion got detected…(also I used the option with pet door sensor attached to the back of theAVN80X)

Also you could use it as security camera with remote monitoring plus option to attach compatible sensors to monitor door/or windows opening away from the camera viewing angle… (Excellent option for Home/Corporate Security)

Myself as visual person I would like to mention few options I really like:

LED Status Indicators – gives me visual ability to check the current Internet &LAN connection status easily

SD Slot (micro SD)

PUSH VIDEO, 5-sec Event Video Call – excellent for today’s world emergencies

External I/O Devices Support – as sometimes event do happens away from the camera viewing angle but you could still hear the audio and call police if need it…

here is more info about this excellent option

On the final note: AVN80X IVS 1.3 Megapixel Network Camera by AVTECH is good home or corporate security solution for anyone… I do recommend it as a best IP camera total security solution at the present time...

In the future I would like to see upgrades at lease 2 Megapixel or more, option to order camera with Kevlar fibber body and shatter proof glass dome for military applications.

The Price of theAVN80X IVS 1.3 Megapixel Network Camera by AVTECH will be announced soon ( I think it would be around $200 - $240 USA more or less but do not quite me on the price) – if you interested please keep checking
