Iphone 5 in Nepal

2012-10-08T09:41:00.001-07:00

Though I am not a fanboy of apple and iphone (I dont like iphone for many reasons), here is the way for some of you guys to get iphone 5 here in Nepal.

We don't have iphone announced yet in Nepal though it will come very soon sometime in November this year we can get it from different sites.

The best way I recommend you to is through the giant sellers such as amazon.com and ebay.com if you have credit card.

If you dont have credit card than it shouldn't be hard again if you have money as harilo.com provides you the service of shipping as well as paying in Nepal to buy any product from amazon and ebay.

Here however I will also like to add some of the features of Iphone 5 with comparison with others in market.

Nokia Lumia 900: Buy In Nepal

2012-04-27T08:28:00.000-07:00

The Nokia Lumia 900 represents a number of firsts: it is the first high-end Windows Phone from Nokia to arrive in the U.S., it is the first 4G LTE smartphone from Nokia, and it is one of the first 4G LTE Windows Phones on the market.
Like the Lumia 800 that preceded it, the Lumia 900 features stunning industrial design, great build quality, and a fantastic ClearBlack AMOLED display. Add in great network performance, solid battery life, and a fast and fluid user interface thanks to Windows Phone 7.5, and you start to see that Nokia really might have a winner on their hands.
Unfortunately, it's not all peaches and roses with the Lumia 900, as its seemingly capable camera does not live up to expectations in real world performance. Additionally, the Windows Phone Marketplace still doesn't offer nearly as many apps as its iOS and Android counterparts, though it has grown tremendously in recent months.

What makes the Nokia Lumia 900 so eye-catching? Even without the electric blue version that I have, the bright white color arriving April 22, or the more-understated black color, the 900's profile stands out. The chassis has a perfectly flat top and bottom, with round sides and a slightly curved back, which Nokia then topped with a large, glossy screen.
At 5 inches tall by 2.7 inches wide by 0.45 inch deep, it's a large phone. The smooth, matte finish helps it slide into pockets and purses, but because of the width and flat back, the Lumia 900 did feel a little flat in my hand. However, it was comfortable on the ear. It may feel a bit heavy at 5.6 ounces, but it's also very solid. I'm a little worried about the long-term effect of finger grease and residue on the color, but in the short term, the finish survived my residual hand lotion and the direct application of a goo-gone solution without marring the color.

Back in its heyday, Nokia phones were largely synonymous with solid construction and thoughtful -- and sometimes daring -- design. The Lumia 900 may not present a strictly new design, since it's clearly adapted from the Nokia N9 Meego-based phone released in Asia, and the Lumia 800, the European version of the N9 that runs Windows Phone, but it's a good one that offers slight variations.

Pros: - Snappy interface! Fastest I've experienced.
- Deep blacks make display easy to read in sunlight.
- Facebook integration is very convenient - even if you're not a social-media fanatic.
- Volume is loud/speakers are good.
- Superior battery life.
Cons: - Some complain about the power button placement (although I prefer it to Samsung Focus Flash, where it's too easy to press power when changing volume!)
- Still too loud on its lowest volume setting!
- Limited memory (but 25g on SkyDrive helps

Galaxy Tab 10.1 : worth buying: Buy in Nepal

2012-04-21T09:20:00.000-07:00

The outstanding Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Honeycomb tablet is lighter and a hair thinner than the Apple iPad 2, and has a smaller footprint than either the Motorola Xoom or the Acer Iconia Tab A500, which are heavier and bulkier than most tablets.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is a major contender.
We reviewed the short-lived Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1V already, but that thicker and heavier device has since been discontinued (It looked as if Vodafone might pick up the 10.1V tab but it is now waiting to release the newer 10.1 model).The only other important players in the tablet market, are the brilliant 10.1-inch Asus Eee Pad Transformer as well as the BlackBerry PlayBook and the HTC Flyer, which are both so-so 7-inch models.
Oh, and keep your eye on the HP TouchPad which goes on sale in the UK next month.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1 is currently slated to go on sale in the UK at the end of July/beginning of August.

And if you want to take a closer look at the slate, you can check out our Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 video review.

So what sets the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 apart? For starters, this is one light and thin tablet. At just 8.6mm, it is 0.2mm thinner than the iPad 2. And you know what? At 565g it's also 36g lighter.
It's as though someone at Samsung sat down and demanded that the 10.1 have world-beating raw system specs.

The good: As thin as the iPad 2 and even lighter, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is the sexiest Honeycomb tablet we've seen. Also, it has a 3-megapixel back camera and a 2-megapixel front camera, and powerful dual speakers.
The bad: The lack of ports on the tablet will be a problem for some and the plastic back leaves it feeling less solid than the iPad 2.
The bottom line: Sleek, sexy, and light, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 gets as close to the iPad 2 as any Android tablet before it.

To be fair there are a couple of things that have changed. The Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 now has a microSD card slot for external storage. Perhaps the best feature is an infrared port that works with a pre-loaded remote control app. Using this app will turn the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 into a universal remote that will control any device in the home that uses an infrared remote. This includes TVs, air conditioners, Blu-ray players and surround sound stereo systems.

Comparison with other Tablets

	Asus Eee Pad Transformer	Acer Iconia Tab A500	Motorola Xoom	Apple iPad 2	T-Mobile G-Slate	Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1
Weight in pounds	1.52	1.66	1.62	1.34	1.38	1.24
Width in inches (landscape)	10.7	10.2	9.8	9.5	9.6	10.1
Height in inches	6.9	6.9	6.6	7.3	5.8	6.9
Depth in inches	0.51	0.51	0.5	0.34	0.49	0.34
Side bezel width in inches (landscape)	1.1	0.8	0.6	0.8	0.9	0.8

There are no USB or HDMI ports. And, try as we might, we couldn't find ports for either SD cards or SIM cards. We're hoping Samsung's final release version will make finding the ports a lot easier.
The back of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 sports a 3-megapixel camera at the top and a plain white back. It's the feel of the plastic back that is the most disappointing aspect of the Tab 10.1's design. It doesn't feel as solid as the iPad 2, and as a result, doesn't feel as comfortable in our hands. Still, despite its 10.1-inch screen, the tablet never felt the least bit bulky.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is a Google Experience tablet, meaning it uses the base version of Honeycomb 3.1, with no customizations to its interface; however, Samsung does include its Samsung Apps, um, app. Samsung Apps gives you access to the company's own application store.

BUY IN NEPAL
Unfortunately till date the product have not arrived in Nepal (till the date of this article writing) , so keep watching when it is authentically introduced in Nepal.

Keep in looks forTamrakar House and Sherpa mall.

My best option is to find the product in the amazon.com and order it through the harilo.com
Though my approximation of price is about NRs. 40,000. You always have alternative to check the price with Amazon.com.

Look at iPad 3: through the akward name: buy in Nepal

2012-04-21T08:38:00.000-07:00

The third generation iPad (announced as "The new iPad", colloquially sometimes known as "iPad 3") is a tablet computer designed, developed and marketed by Apple Inc. The 3rd generation iPad adds a Retina display, the new Apple A5X chip with a quad-core graphics processor, a 5 megapixel camera, full HD 1080p video recording, voice dictation, and 4G (LTE). It shipped with iOS 5.1, which serves primarily as a platform for audio-visual media, including electronic books, periodicals, films, music, computer games, presentations, web content.
In North America (specifically the US and Canada) there are nine different variations of the 3rd generation iPad, whilst in the rest of the world there are six, although some countries just have the Wi-Fi only model for sale. Each variation is available with black or white front glass panels, with options for 16, 32, or 64 GB storage capacities. In North America, connectivity options are Wi-Fi only, Wi-Fi + 4G (LTE) on Verizon, or Wi-Fi + 4G (LTE) on AT&T, Telus, Rogers, or Bell. For the rest of the world, connectivity options are Wi-Fi only or Wi-Fi + 4G (LTE), with the latter not being sold in some countries, and the LTE connectivity also not actually operational compared to the variations sold in North America.

The tablet was released to ten countries on March 15, 2012. It gained mostly positive reviews, praising its Retina display, faster processor, and 4G (LTE) capabilities. However, controversy arose when some users realized that the device would not work on 4G (LTE) networks in their country. Three million units of the 3rd generation iPad were sold in its first three days of release.

Source: Wikepdia

The question most people ask us when it comes to the new iPad is: what's different from the old one?
Well, in this case it's pretty easy: there's a Retina Display that makes everything looks superbly crisp, an updated A5X processor bringing quad-core graphics and a 5MP camera on the rear with a VGA sensor on the front.
Oh, and the iPad 3 is also the device that brings iOS 5.1 to the masses (well, it's also on the likes of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 as well, but hey, we're not reviewing those today, and you don't really care unless it's a new iPad.)

The design of the new iPad 3 isn't really anything different from the original duo from Apple's tablet range. Actually, while we're thinking about it, it looks almost identical to the iPad 2 – to the point you'd struggle to tell them apart when turned off.

Pros

Superb screen
Fast processor
Slick gaming
Simple interface

Cons

Can overheat
Apps take up too much space
No expandable storage
Thicker than iPad 2

The "iPad 3"--Apple isn't calling it that--doesn't really look any different from the iPad 2. Yes, the case is slightly more tapered, but it's not a significant change. In other words, once again almost all the change is on the inside. For some people, that's just fine, but if you were hoping to see a whole new iPad with a new look, you'll have to wait.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Here is what we know about the next iPad:

Retina display, with a resolution of 2048×1536, 3.1 million pixels at 264ppi
A5X Processor, quad-core graphics
1GB of RAM
5 megapixel iSight camera
1080p video recording
Voice dictation, similar to Siri without the questions
3G & 4G LTE connectivity
10 hour battery life, 9 hour battery on 4G
9.4mm thick, weighs 1.4lbs
iOS 5.1

Windows 8 beta out: put it on your laptop here in Nepal

2012-04-21T05:26:00.000-07:00

The Windows 8 Consumer Preview (here's the Windows 8 download) updates the look of the Developer Preview, adds a lot of new features and revamps a few old ones.

The round Start button is gone, the Metro-style Start screen remains and yes, you can only pick from nine colours and five patterns for the Start screen background.
But there's far more to the Consumer Preview user interface than the Start screen, and far more to Windows 8 than the user interface.
There are new ways of switching between apps, as well as more updates to the desktop tools. There are changes under the hood to file copying, power management, security, networking, hardware support and more

A feature dubbed "Windows To Go" was the first in the list, meaning it is possibly the most significant addition. Visser said as a "fully manageable corporate Windows 8 desktop on a bootable external USB stick", this feature will allow IT organisations to support the "Bring Your Own PC" trend.
Another new element, Directaccess means that remote users will be able to access resources inside a corporate network without having to launch a separate virtual private network (VPN) connection. Visser said that this will aid IT administrators because it will keep remote users' PCs in compliance by applying the latest software updates. It can also be implemented with the existing IPv4 infrastructure.
A Branchcache feature will ensure that users' PCs cache files, web sites, and other content from central servers so content is not repeatedly downloaded across the wide area network (WAN). A component called Applocker will alleviate issues by restricting the files and apps that users or groups are allowed to access and run.
Enterprise will also have a variety of enhancements to features previously seen in the Windows 7 equivalent edition, namely RemoteFX and Windows Server 2012. These improvements will allow use of 3D graphics, USB peripherals and touch-enabled devices across any type of network (LAN or WAN).
Last in Microsoft's list of Enterprise features is the Windows 8 App Deployment element. Visser said this will permit "domain joined PCs and tablets running Windows 8 Enterprise [to] automatically be enabled to side-load internal, Windows 8 Metro style apps".
In addition to these new features, Microsoft said that the Enterprise edition will include all the facets of Windows 8 Pro and will allow customers to get improvements to Windows fundamentals, such as end-to-end security and better manageability.

Windows 8 update in Nepal is also provided by our team if you want us to for the price of just NRs. 300.

Apple iPad 2 - now with iOS 5 and iCloud

2011-10-12T08:10:00.000-07:00

iPad 2 is thin, light and fully loaded with iOS 5 and new introduction of Apple, iCloud. It consists of two camera, front camera for FaceTime and back for HD video. The battery of iPad two is 10 hours with just 0.34 inch thin and 1.33 pounds. There’s so much to iPad, it’s amazing there’s so little of it and also includes iPad smart cover, iPad 2 and the iPad Smart Cover are made for each other. iPad is one big, beautiful display — 9.7 inches of high-resolution photos, movies, web pages, books, and more. LED back lighting makes everything you see remarkably crisp, vivid, and bright. Even in places with low light, like an airplane. And there’s no wrong way to hold iPad. It’s designed to show off everything in portrait and landscape, so with every turn (even upside down), the display adjusts to fit. Because it uses a display technology called IPS (in-plane switching), it has a wide, 178° viewing angle. Hold it up to someone across the room, or share it with someone sitting next to you, and everyone gets a brilliant view.
With iPad, you use your fingers to do everything. And thanks to Multi-Touch technology, everything you do — surfing the web, typing email, reading books, swiping through photos, and switching between apps — is easier and a lot more fun. When your fingers touch the display, it senses them using electrical fields. Then it instantly transforms your taps, swipes, pinches, and flicks into lifelike actions. Just like that.
Every iPad is built with advanced 802.11n wireless technology. It automatically finds Wi-Fi networks, which you can join with a few taps. iPad is also available with 3G connectivity on either AT&T or Verizon Wireless networks. So if you’re somewhere without Wi-Fi, such as outdoors on a camping trip or on the road, you can still surf the web, check email, or get directions.
iCloud stores your music, photos, documents, and more and wirelessly pushes them to all your devices. So if you buy a song, take a photo, or edit a calendar event on your iPad, iCloud makes sure it appears on your Mac, iPhone, and iPod touch, too. You don’t have to do a thing.

Two powerful cores in one A5 chip mean iPad can do twice the work at once. Multitasking is smooth, apps load quickly, and anything you touch responds instantly. And with up to nine times the graphics performance of the first-generation iPad, everything on iPad 2 is even more fluid and realistic, from gameplay to scrolling through your photo library.
Apps on iPad look and feel like nothing you’ve ever experienced. They’re available from the App Store in virtually every category with more than 14,000 apps. And more are added every day.

You never know when you’ll suddenly be in the mood to listen to a favorite song or re-watch that hilarious sitcom episode. With iCloud, you can have iTunes automatically download new music purchases to all your devices the moment you tap Buy. You can also access past music and TV show purchases from any of your devices — wirelessly and without syncing.
If checking all the usual spots hasn’t turned up your missing iOS device, Find My iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac can help. Just sign in at icloud.com or use the Find My iPhone app on another device to locate yours on a map, display a message on its screen, remotely set a passcode lock, or initiate a remote wipe to delete your data.

Pros:
Video Chat:
The image quality could be a lot better and smoother, but Facetime has the merit of being easy to use, at least easier than competing apps and this is added advantage of iPad 2.
Checking emails quickly:
You press the button, and it’s on within a fraction of a second. It’s great for checkin emails.
Web browsing:
Browsing is great, but it lacks Flash support which should be disadvantage.
Music, Videos:
Whether it is via Hulu, Netflix or from a local video file, playback is high quality and perfectly smooth. As for music, the iPad is a 9.7” iPod in terms of quality.
Read News, Books, Comics:
eBooks are widely available from Apple itself, but also giants like Amazon and B&N. Granted, this is no ePaper display, but look at how great comics are. You should pay for these services.

Travel Entertainment:
On a plane, train, bus or anywhere, it’s hard to beat the longevity and overall entertainment quality of an iPad. Its batter life is long enough to display 10 (real) hours of video. With some break it should be enough for your travel.
Casual Gaming:
I’m a bit old school when it comes to gaming, but iOS games have gone a long way.Games are better with better graphics.

Cons:
Content creation, editing:

iPad 2 is now available in three different memory varients i.e. 16GB, 32GB and 64GB

iPad 2 is an excellent tablet computer that addresses the usage models that customers are willing to pay for, at a price point and with a design that competitors simply can’t match, especially in the entry-level segment. Apple has built the iPad 2 by making everything that was good about the first iPad, better. If it wasn’t for the poor optics quality, I would say that this is a perfect product upgrade. Anyhow, in the current tablet context, it’s fair to say that iPad 2 is an “excellent” product. As long as you understand what it can -and cannot- do, you should be happy to own one.

BUY IN NEPAL
In the absence of authorized dealer, there are few local stores at Tamrakar house and outside providing iPad 2. But remember, whether its 16GB, 32GB or 64GB varies your price.
The price is NRs. 50,000 inc. tax for 16GB and NRs. 60,000 inc. tax for 32 GB.

SONY DAV-DZ810 - 5.1ch DVD Home Theatre System

2011-10-11T23:54:00.000-07:00

So many music systems are popping up like targets in some shoot the unlimited desires of the users all around the world, I think it’s time we put these components on a backseat and give some attention to a one of the great product of SONY, “ready to eat” Home theater system, with every component right out of the box for your home cinema and music entertainment. This comparatively under covered segment is also very important, as it covers a niche for people not willing to spend lakhs on a Home theater, but still desire to get surround sound and the works. This system is by Sony, and it is a DVD Home theater system, called the DAV DZ810.

Mind-blowing Masterpiece. Full connectivity options for a sensational home theater experience.
    S-AIR Wireless Ready
    HDMI Output (Upscale 1080p for DVD)
    USB Movie Playback (DivX and MPEG-4 Simple Profile)
    USB Record and Play Function
    BRAVIA Sync
    Easy Connection via Audio Return Channel

This product comes with a DVD receiver, which means it plays your source and powers the speakers, the latter of which is also included, 6 of them in all including a subwoofer. The entire system is finished in black, with glossy strips for the front panels of the speakers, holding a black mesh grille along their length, hiding and protecting the drivers. The sub too is similar, and also it has the reflex port on the front panel. The speakers are slim and tall, very light weight, with the surrounds perched on a thin tubular stalk, all screwed on to rectangular bases. Speaker wires are color coded and easy to plug in to the back of the player.
The player itself looks quite sleek as must people say, with a shiny metallic strip running across the width of its fade, the latter being a surface divided into 2 sections: one bare smooth black transparent surface and another slightly recessed inwards matte surface. The volume knob is on the right, and so is power on, USB in and microphone in + line in. The back has usual connectors of 1 HDMI, 1 optical audio in, 1 component video and 1 composite video, also SCART, which is useless to Indian consumers. The USB input can play standard def, MPEG 4 simple profile, meaning DivX/Xvid and MP3s and JPEGs. Last but not least, the player can rip MP3s off CDs onto your flash drive.

2D was gorgeous! While it was hard to determine how bright the Pro Cinema 6010 would be in a dedicated home theater (where most will end up), due to the white-walled conference room environment where it was played with it. Well, it was it bright!
The Pro Cinema 6010 still needs work for 3D, which is OK.. Considering time it still needs improvement- when they plan to ship. One impressive thing, though was color! The Epson really did look very color accurate when in its separate 3D THX mode. And get this, in addition to the 3D THX mode, there's a brighter 3D mode as well. the thing is, their 3D THX mode is probably every bit as bright as any of those LCoS projectors, most of which are dramatically more expensive.
The Pro Cinema 6010 certainly should be a top contender for its anticipated price point, and I wouldn't be surprised, if a couple of those far more expensive LCoS 3D projectors have a nervous breakdown when this projector hits the streets.

BROTHER HL-7050N - Expandable Laser Printer with Networking

2011-10-11T02:47:00.000-07:00

The HL-7050N is a office workhorse with networking that delivers high-quality monochrome output. This printer offers a fast print speed and a large and expandable paper capacity that can meet both your current and future needs. In addition, the HL-7050N also features a low cost per page and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
The HL-7050 Series Laser Printers offer a complete output solution for a growing office workgroup.Office workhorses, these high-performance and expandable monochrome laser printers are capable of delivering outstanding print quality at up to 30 pages per minute (ppm). Engineered with flexibility in mind, these powerful printers can easily meet your most demanding output needs today, while providing an excellent foundation for future expansion.

The HL-7050 Series printers are ideal for producing fast, high-quality monochrome output. They feature a wide variety of industry standard emulations including PCL6, IBM® ProPrinter XL, Epson® FX and HP-GL. And if you use popular graphic design programs, you will appreciate their BR-Script 3 (PostScript® 3™ language emulation) compatibility. Additional features of the HL-7050 Series include true 1200x1200dpi maximum print quality, 32MB of standard memory (upgradeable to 288MB) and a versatile and expandable paper capacity.

Any user in your workgroup can connect locally and print to the HL-7050 through its automatic emulation and interface switching. With the network-ready HL-7050N, the built-in 10/100 BaseT Ethernet print server allows you to monitor printer functions remotely via your Web browser. Advanced users can also utilize Brother's exclusive BRAdmin Professional software or Web-BRAdmin to manage any network-connected Brother printer plus any SNMP-compliant printers in TCP/IP and IPX/SPX environments.
For compatibility with leading office applications, a complete set of Windows® and Mac® drivers assures that everyone in your workgroup can print to the HL-7050.
It offers a maximum print resolution of up to 1200 x 1200 dpi (dots per inch) and a rated print speed of 28 pages per minute for A4 or Letter pages. That speed may relate to the core print engine rather than the total print time - the page processing overhead is rarely included in such figures - but the HL-7050N has a fast enough processor that there's very little overhead anyway. The output quality is excellent; not up to photo inkjet standard when printing photos, as you'd expect, but better than inkjet for text and business graphics.

Main Features

    * Built-in Ethernet network interface‡. The HL-7050N provides excellent network connectivity and advanced network management tools.
    * Large, expandable paper capacity. A large 500-sheet capacity input tray and a 100-sheet capacity multi-purpose tray‡ are standard. Add up to three 500-sheet optional paper trays‡ for a total input capacity of 2,100 sheets.
    * Low operating costs. Offering the lowest cost-per-page in our lineup, the HL-7050N can help reduce your printing costs.
    * Fast printing. Featuring print speeds up to 30 pages per minute, this high-performance printer can improve your office’s productivity.
    * Protect your confidential documents. Use the secure print feature to ensure that only the people that should see a document actually do.
    * Professional results. With print resolutions up to 1200 x 1200 dpi, the HL-7050N produces documents with crisp, clear text and excellent graphics.

The Brother HL-7050N smells of... nothing. It's quite strange to watch pages emerge from this printer without any accompanying smell. The fumes are properly trapped, with very little or nothing escaping to the office air. Partly for this reason, the printer is, according to Brother, the first to be awarded the TCO99 accreditation (a health and safety standard which you'll often see on monitors).
In all other respects, this is everything you'd expect of a departmental laser printer. It's pretty well built, although some panels are a little flimsy. It's not overly attractive, but not offensively ugly either. It's fitted with a 10/100Base-TX network adapter and supports PCL-6 and PostScript Level 3 emulation, in the shape of 'BR-Script 3'. In other words, it will print from just about any application you'd care to use. This is particularly the case since it has parallel, serial and USB connections, with a built-in CompactFlash card reader too. IT managers certainly won't have to worry about connectivity, even for offices with several different types of computer and operating system.

Pros
With paper trays installed, this printer has a capacity of 2100 sheets total capacity.This printer can be plugged directly into a LAN, so it can serve as its own print server.

Cons
This laser printer does not support duplex printing.This printer requires optional trays to achieve its 2100 sheets, which is 1500 more than its out-of the box capacity.

The HP Officejet Pro 8500A is a big heavy unit packed with features, including many Web based features. Read about them all in the manual - but to my annoyance, I needed to download this from hp.com, all 242 pages - it is not packed as a booklet and is not included on the software DVD! To have to go out and make an effort to obtain the instruction manual is a bit much. The feature that attracted me most was the provision for wireless operation. I have a small office where space is at a premium. I was able to set this up in a far away corner with no cables connecting to the computer at all; it runs perfectly off my home wireless network.

Printing of basic black and white text documents gives nice sharp results. Held up against the output from my cheapo laser printer, it produces a heavier line, so you may wish to change your font selections accordingly. Color printing gave nice output on HP Premium Presentation paper, which costs about NRs. 550 for 150 sheets. Scanning worked OK unless I choose the highest resolution, in which case it became painfully slow, almost useless. In operation the 8500 goes through an impressive series of grunts and flops as it shakes, rattles and rolls to adjust itself or produce pages.

PANASONIC VIERA - TC-P65VT30

2011-10-10T10:17:00.000-07:00

65" Class Viera VT30 Series HDTV (64.7" Diagonal)

•Full HD 3D (1 Pair of Glasses Included)

Revolutionary VIERA Full HD 3D Technology with high-precision shutter control eyewear delivers award-winning realism that immerses you in the image

•One Sheet of Glass Design

A sleek, frameless look that will enhance any décor

•Infinite Black Pro 2 Panel

Delivers deep, rich blacks and high contrast in virtually any viewing area, from living rooms to bedrooms

•VIERA Connect WiFi Ready

Enjoy a world of movies, sports, and other online apps plus free Skype™ video calls on your VIERA HDTV

Panasonic uses Full-HD Frame Sequential technology to create its 3D images. Images recorded in 1920 x 1080 pixels for both the right-eye and the left-eye alternately flash on the screen at the ultra-high rate of 120 frames per second. When you view the screen through active-shutter glasses that open and close each lens in sync with the alternating images, you see breathtaking FULL HD 3D pictures with stunning power and realism. Enjoy naturally flowing 24p films with familiar TV-like quality. In plasma displays, increasing the number of frames creates smoother images. When reproducing images from a 24p film source, VIERA HDTVs 24p cinema smoother function generates smooth, natural-looking images.

Unique Panasonic technology converts 2D images into high-quality 3D images in real-time. The technology generates a detailed depth effect for each type of image, so the 3D effect is natural and realistic. Use VIERA HDTV to enjoy Blu-ray movies, DVD movies and even ordinary TV broadcasts in 3D. The Super Resolution function allows images that were converted from 2D to 3D to be displayed in sharp, clear 3D while minimizing double image. 3D images with crisp contours are also produced from 3D broadcasts using the side-by-side method.

In order to enjoy the original image quality of a movie, you need to have a display that portrays the images exactly as the movie's creators intended. VIERA HDTVs have met the high standards set by THX Certified Display Program, reproducing both 2D and 3D images with cinema-like quality.

It's easy to view 3D photos and movies you shot yourself on the big VIERA HDTV screen. After shooting with your 3D-compatible camera or camcorder, simply insert the SD card into the slot on a 3D-compatible VIERA HDTV. The viewing is incredible, with images so realistic it feels as though you're right back in the moment. You'll find that lifes special moments are even more memorable when you preserve them in 3D.
Games are much more fun when there's no lag in operation. VIERA HDTV's automatically choose settings that provide the optimal image, so you get super-fast response with virtually no delays. Even dark scenes with delicately rendered details are beautiful and easy to see.
One important way consumers can protect the environment is by choosing high-quality products and taking care of them so they last for a long time. A high-quality VIERA HDTV can help. Thanks to a newly designed phosphor process and new panel technology, our plasma panels last for up to 100,000 hours before the brightness decreases by half. That's more than 30 years of viewing 8 hours a day.

Pros and Cons

    * Plenty of multimedia action

Cons

    * It’s expensive
    * Concerns over image retention
    * Brightness shifting
This tv is simply incredible. Blacks are rich, shadow areas are detailed with no bleeding, motion is flawless, audio is surprisingly good, and the 3d is very good. For many of consumers that are out there that are horrified of plasmas because of the ghost stories that surround the technology, let’s be honest, most of them are simply not true. Plasmas do not need to be "recharged" after 2 years of usage. Is it true that they lose luminosity every year, yes they do, but it’s minimal at best unless you sit on your couch and watch the thing 8 hours a day. Newest Plasma TV's have a half-life of 100,000 hours, which is a long time. (30+) years for the normal TV viewer. (LCD's last 60,000 and LED LCD lasts 100,000). The only rumor that has some truth to it is the dreaded screen burn. To take a closer look of the picture, I watched some visually demanding blurry movies such as the Lord of the Rings, the Fellowship of the Ring. For those of you that are fans of the series, you know how visually demanding the scene involving the mines of Moria can be. It’s a superb test of a TV’s ability to product deep, rich blacks, while still providing low light detail. The 65vt30 passed with flying colors. In the end, Plasma will crush an LCD in picture quality each and every time. Only one notable exception is if your room exhibits large amounts of ambient light. LCD's are brighter and appear better in these conditions, but they are not better TV’s. The 65vt30 actually has a feature that adjusts screen brightness and contrast based on the ambient light in your room. Very cool feature. This also helps with power consumption, which by the way my electric bill as barely moved since taking hold of this TV a month ago. It’s also an incredible 2.5 inches deep and it gives off a very small amount of heat during operation.

LG have certainly packed the 55LW980 with just about every feature you could think of, including Nano LED backlighting, Cinema 3D, local dimming, MCI 1000Hz, Smart TV, built-in WiFi, DLNA, Freeview HD and Dual Play. On top of all that LG also include seven pairs of passive glasses and a Magic Motion remote control. Certainly we had no complaints in this area, then again considering the price of the 55LW980 you would expect a stellar features package.
We had no such reservations about the 3D performance and once again we found ourselves bowled over by LG's Cinema 3D. The 3D images produced by the 55LW980 were bright, crosstalk free and highly immersive, thanks in part to the larger screen. The lack of flicker resulted in a far more comfortable 3D experience and we never once found ourselves aware of a loss in resolution. In fact, whether the 3D was delivered via broadcast, Blu-ray or games we always found the experience to be both enjoyable and engaging. Speaking of gaming, the input lag measured at 45ms which isn't bad but might be a bit high for hard core gamers. In both 2D and 3D the off-axis performance was very good and the energy consumption was remarkable for a screen of this size.
Ultimately we have no reservations in recommending the LG 55LW980 based on the overall image accuracy, impressive list of features and the quality of the 3D. However, it isn't cheap and if you're thinking of buying one we advise you to demo it first to make sure you're happy with the black levels (dimming off) or the banding issues (dimming on) prior to purchase.

SONY SLT A55- 16.2 MP Exmor CMOS Sensor

2011-10-09T19:18:00.000-07:00

Sony redefines the DSLR with award-winning Translucent Mirror Technology in its SLT (Single-Lens Translucent) camera design. It has a translucent mirror fixed in position to reduce blackout time between shots, while its innovative design also enables SLT cameras to be smaller, lighter and faster than conventional DSLR cameras.

Shoot the world around you using SONY SLT camera with high performance Sony's α A-mount lenses, an Exmor R™ CMOS image sensor, and BIONZ™ processor technology. With vivid colour, clarity of detail and fast processing power, professional-looking images and photography in low light and all other conditions is a breeze.
Unlike regular DSLRs, the α SLT camera offers fast, accurate and continuous focus on moving subjects using Phase-Detection AF, to easily create professional-looking movies. A benefit of Sony’s Translucent Mirror Technology, this allows tracking of subjects on the move without delay and greater clarity, in Full HD.
With a sleeker form factor than regular DSLRs, A-mount SLT cameras with Translucent Mirror Technology enable high-speed, high precision, phase detection AF for stills and movies. An exclusive Sony technology, Translucent Mirror Technology is blazingly fast, so it's easy to capture life's greatest moments in perfect focus.

Great images start with great lenses. Critical decisions are made before every click, and the right lens plays a large part in achieving your creative vision. Sony α A-mount lens lineup offers a selection of versatile, interchangeable lens options for you to choose from.

Sony's α A-mount lenses, an Exmor R™ CMOS image sensor, and BIONZ™ processor technology.

Translucent Mirror Technology has been Named 'Best Imaging Innovation' at this year's prestigious TIPA Awards, Judges at Europe's leading photo industry awards praised SLT cameras by Sony for their high-speed phase detection autofocus, burst shooting performance and compact size.

Sony A55 is packed of amazing features. You can find an Auto HDR & Sweep Panorama features, the same that was used on Sony NEX-5 mirrorless cameras. The Sweep Panorama allows photographers to easily capture panoramic photographs without stitching them using software. All you have to do is sweep you camera from one side to the other, and you get a high resolution panorama images, automatically!
The Auto HDR feature, allows photographers to create in-camera HDR photos, by combining identical photos, taken in different exposure settings. HDR photos can better expose highlight and shadow details.

Pros AND Cons:
Pros:
- Size and weight - the A55 is relatively small and light
- High ISO performance - very good high ISO image quality including the innovative Multi-frame NR mode which allows to photograph in ridiculously high ISO with very low noise
- Sweep panorama - taking panorama shots has never been easier
- Live view - shooting with quick focus using the either the viewfinder or the LCD screen
- Quick auto focus during video shooting
- Very quick continues shooting (even not in the special 10 fps mode)
- Articulated LCD screen which can also be folded back for protection
- Easy to use menus and controls
- Compatible with Minolta lenses

Cons:
- Battery life - battery life not as good as the old Alphas, need to buy an extra battery
- EVF - it takes some time getting use to it but it enables operating the camera (including photo playback) without having to look at the LCD screen.
- Video shooting in hot environments can cause the image sensor to overheat and the camera will stop shooting. Turning off the image stabilization alleviates this a bit.

It is a fine camera and easy to use. Like canon and nikon Sony has a nice upgrade to a pro system and a wide array of lenses. I do recommend however getting a 50mm as it is a better lens for portraits than the kit lens

SAMSUNG NX200 - 20.3 MP CAMERA

2011-10-09T08:22:00.000-07:00

Pick up the compact, lightweight NX200 and start shooting like a pro. Pictures are rich, deep and exquisitely detailed in 20.3 MP, and pro-level movies are shot in smooth, dynamic full HD video. Or capture active subjects with high speed capture at 7fps—and make the action look good. Capture every moment in true-to-life quality. With the best-in-class resolution of the extra large 20.3 MP APS-C CMOS sensor, shots are rich, deep and exquisitely detailed. For active subjects, stills can be captured beautifully with 7fps Continuous Shot/100ms AF Speed. Then review your shot on the large 3.0” AMOLED display—made for sharper images and glare reduction.

Holding the NX200 in your hand feels quite natural, with buttons well-spaced across the back of the body. The i-Function button on the standard kit lens is well placed to allow for shooting without taking your eyes from the composition in front of you.
The new aluminium body and protruding rubberised grip also make it more comfortable to hold than the NX100, making one-handed shooting also quite easy.
As well as the native 3:2 aspect ratio of the image sensor, the Samsung NX200 also offers 16:9 and 1:1 aspect ratio modes for JPEG still image capture. Full-resolution shooting is possible at a maximum of seven frames per second, for as many as 11 JPEG or 8 raw frames. It’s possible to shoot at either, 10, 15, or an impressive 30 frames per second. In total, there are four zoom lenses currently available, three of them optically stabilized: the 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 OIS II, 50-200mm f/4.0-5.6 ED OIS II, and 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 ED OIS. The sole unstabilized zoom model is the 20-50mm f/3.5-5.6 ED. Two unstabilized prime lenses are already available: the 20mm f/2.8 and 30mm f/2.0.

Stabilization system operates only while the shutter button is half or fully pressed, thereby saving battery life, but providing an unstabilized image preview. In OIS Mode 2, the NX200′s stabilization system always operates whenever the camera is powered up, providing a stabilized preview, but at the cost of battery life.
Samsung has included quite a range of creative options in the NX200, catering to photographers who want to control the look of their images as much as possible, without resorting to the digital darkroom. Preset Picture Wizard styles include Standard, Vivid, Portrait, Landscape, Forest, Retro, Cool, Calm, and Classic.The NX200 also provides ten different Smart Filter functions, which apply more complex filters to images. Magic Frame modes include Holiday, Old Film, Ripple, Full Moon, Old Record, Magazine, Sunny Day, Classic TV, Yesterday, Wall Art, Billboard 1, Billboard 2, and Newspaper. The NX200 provides for JPEG output in both sRGB and Adobe RGB color spaces.

Now, talk about pros and cons.

Pros:

As far as the form factor, Samsung camera system plays in the field continues to the forefront: The digital camera is unobtrusive, neat and pleasantly straightforward process. Although the megapixel bragging comes along, at first glance like pure marketing, the camera is surprisingly good results magic on the screen: brightness, color fidelity and contrast are in a healthy line. The screen provides a very good quality and thanks it is AMOLED so that it also very energy efficient. Since the NX series is longer on the market, is pleased about the newly minted owners of a decent selection of accessories.

Cons:

Compared to Sony and Olympus, the operating speed of the Samsung NX200 is still sluggish from: Both the switch, and the trigger will need a tad too long. The display does not swivel and rotate to facilitate unusual shooting situations. Finally, the digital camera lacks an option for electronic viewfinder. Whether you are at the end of the day really need 20 megapixels, is finally to be seen - the purchase price, this is certainly not conducive.

APPLE- MacBook Pro 2011

2011-10-08T22:57:00.000-07:00

The new 2011 range of Apple’s MacBook Pro’s are now official, so we thought we would take a look at the full specifications of the new MacBook Pro’s to see how the compare to last years models.
There are quite a few changes from the previous versions of the MacBook Pro, with two separate 13 inch models available, two 15 inch models and one 17 inch model
MacBook Pro is machined from a single piece of aluminum, an engineering breakthrough that replaced many parts with just one. It’s called the unibody. And the first time you pick up a MacBook Pro you’ll notice the difference it makes. The entire enclosure is thinner and lighter than other notebooks. It looks polished and refined. And it feels strong and durable — perfect for life inside (and outside) your briefcase or backpack.

Complete control over how the MacBook Pro is designed, how it’s manufactured, and how it’s packaged gives Apple an environmental edge. LED backlight technology preserves energy. Glass and aluminum are highly recyclable. MacBook Pro is free of most harmful toxins. And the 17-inch model ships in packaging that’s 34 percent smaller than the original, while the packaging for the 13-inch model is 41 percent smaller. That means fewer trees used for boxes and fewer planes, trains, and trucks used for transport.

Specification:

MacBook Pro 13″ 2011

2.3GHz Dual Core i5 CPU
320GB 5400 rpm hard drive
4GB RAM at 1333MHz
Intel HD 3000 GPU
1280×800 screen resolution

MacBook Pro 13″ 2011 second

2.7GHz Dual Core i5 CPU
500GB 5400 rpm hard drive
4GB RAM at 1333MHz
Intel HD 3000 GPU
1280×800 screen resolution

MacBook Pro 15″ 2011

2.0GHz Quad Core i7 CPU
500GB 5400 rpm hard drive
4GB RAM at 1333MHz
Intel HD 3000 GPU & AMD Radeon HD 6490M with 256MB VRAM
1440×900 screen resolution

MacBook Pro 15″ 2011 second

2.2GHz Quad Core i7 CPU
750GB 5400 rpm hard drive
4GB RAM at 1333MHz
Intel HD 3000 GPU & AMD Radeon HD 6750M with 1GB VRAM
1440×900 screen resolution

MacBook Pro 17″ 2011

2.2GHz Quad Core i7 CPU
750GB 5400 rpm hard drive
4GB RAM at 1333MHz
Intel HD 3000 GPU & AMD Radeon HD 6750M with 1GB VRAM
1920×1200 screen resolution

All 2011 MacBook Pro models include the new Thunderbolt interface, a SuperDrive, can be upgraded to include SSD drives and 8GB of RAM, and the 15″ and 17″ models can be upgraded to anti-glare displays and faster processors as well. The enclosure remains the familiar Unibody Aluminum chasis, and each model is said to include a battery cable of 7 hours of usage.

Please see more specification on official site.
Pros
➛ looks great (in my opinion)
➛ glass screen, looks sharp and you can touch it.
➛ LED back lit screen, which is very bright, and can darken automatically in dimly lit rooms
➛ very energy efficient and long battery life
➛ two graphics processors. It uses the lowend card to save battery life, and turns on the highend card when it needs to (for 3d games and the like)
➛ Intel Core i5 is a very new, high end, and powerful processor. The only processor that's better than it today is the Intel Core i7, which is too intense for laptops anyway. The chips have 32-nanometer transistors - the smallest of any available CPU. Smaller transistors means it can fit more power in less space, while using less energy.
➛ can run all software: you are not limited to Windows-only, Mac-only, or Linux-only applications. You can run every major operating system on one computer, at the same time if you like.
➛ High resale value: I think this one is a big deal. This Macbook Pro might be the most top of the line laptop right now, but it won't be forever. If you want a new computer in one year or a few years from now, you can sell this one and get most of your money back. No other brand of computer holds resale value as well as Apple. If Apple comes out with newer Macbook Pros that look nicer to you, selling your current Macbook Pro and getting the brand new one will only cost a couple hundred dollars. If you repeat this every year, you can always have a top of the line computer for very little money after the initial investment.
➛ you can surf the internet right away without worrying about viruses or installing security programs.
➛ comes with a lot of amazing free software including iLife.
➛ the touchpad is amazing once you get use to it. It's made out of glass and can do multi-touch gestures (like an iphone). You can set to scroll when moving two fingers on it, and "right click" when you tap it with two fingers.
➛ makes it easy to use special characters like
Cons
➛ you don't like how it looks
➛ Other laptops are cheaper (but don't have much resale value.)
➛ You have to install Windows yourself, if you want to play certain PC games, run AutoCAD, or other Windows only programs.
You have to download everything in mac version (ex. have to find and download msn mac version, microsoft office mac, everything in mac. however, if u are one of people who uses auto then do not get macbook cuz autocad is only available on pc,windows or whatever- they dont have autocad mac version.

Other thoughts:
I don't think having to download mac versions of programs is a con. After all, you have to download programs designed for Windows on Windows computers, and same thing for Linux or any other OS. From my experience, mac programs are usually better than their windows equivalents, and there are free mac programs online to do just about anything however, there are very limited programs for mac as compared to those of windows.

The Acer Aspire Ethos AS8951G has a huge 1080p 18-inch display, and gets points for inventiveness for its detachable touch-pad remote control. Battery life was also excellent for such a large laptop.
The Aspire Ethos AS8951G-9600 is both a mouthful and a handful—and surprisingly full of innovation.

This big machine is a multimedia-centric desktop replacement built around a mammoth 18.4-inch screen. But the real news is in its primary input device: a clever removable touch pad that doubles as a wireless remote. The Ethos AS8951G-9600 isn’t the fastest desktop replacement we’ve tested, but it more than holds its own.

Probably an overall well rounded to fit many interests additional on top of some of the features within newer "standards" and releases. For the size probably really fits as well to on the idea, so maybe even a few say "nit-pick" places of interest on additional might actually be useful, against just another feature within product.
Otherwise taking into fact of maybe regular mouse use and keyboard, the system itself kind of speaks for the interest of a laptop with some capability and "displaced" interest for product.
With probably an all in all of ideas around the both or like to say to a point to include additionally on the say "all-n-all" with accompanying features for the interest.
