Dell Latitude 13: The Ultra Slim Notebook. Best for Business People

Dell-latitude-13

Dell unveiled a new ultra-slim Latitude 13. With similar form factor, Latitude 13 appears to be a re-branded Vostro 13 notebook that was released in December 2009. Its close resemblance to Adamo laptop makes Latitude 13 thin and light laptop for business users. No details about the price and availability of this device are out as yet.

As such, it comes fully IT-ified with a preinstalled Citrix client(for U.S only), easier virtualization options, and baked in know-how for system image and software update distribution. So it’s not really new, but it’s still “the world’s thinnest 13-inch commercial client laptop,” according to Dell and that’s gotta be worth a second look when it begins shipping in a few weeks.

As the brand label suggests, Dell’s latest Latitude comes with a 13.3-inch display screen, while other contributing aspects include a weight of just 1.5kg (approx. 3.3lbs), a full-sized keyboard, intell ultra low voltage processing technology, Windows 7 or Windows XP, and a traditional hard disk drive (HDD).

Nexus One Update on Multitouch, Google Googles, 3G Fix Arrives Officially

nexus-one-1

From the day of Google Nexus One was released last month, talks were on about its forthcoming multitouch support. Although the phone was more than capable to integrate multitouch gestures, Google for some reason, choose not to include it in the initial firmware that the Nexus Ones came. There was a small fix that enabled multitouch in the browser unofficially.

Yesterday, Google issued a small OTA (Over The Air) update for the Nexus One that brings in multitouch support to it – apart from numerous other improvements. Multitouch has been enabled in the gallery, browser and Google Maps where now you can pinch and zoom – just like on the iPhone. Google Maps has also been updated to version 3.4 and brings with it items synchronization, search suggestions from users’ personal maps history, and a very interesting “night mode” in Maps Navigation. The update also adds the Google Goggles application that was first seen in December 2009.

According to Google, the update will include:

Ainol V8000HDV PMP Supports 1280p Videos

ainol-v8000hdv-1280p

If you want HD-capable PMP, the Ainol V8000HDV PMP should do well, as it plays more than the 1080p full HD, which claims capable of playing back video at 1280p instead of only 1080p.

The Ainol V8000HDV PMP features a 4.3-inch 800 x 480 screen, which of course will not show the HD quality on the small screen. But it’s got an HDMI port that allows it to be connected to an HD LCD display that supports up to 1280p for better-quality of video playback. The device also has a 16GB flash storage built in.

It supports various formats of videos such as S, AVI, MP4, MPG, MKV, PSP, DAT, VOB, WMV, ASF, RM, RMVB, MOV, M2V, QT, M2A. And also the support of SRT subtitles on AVI and RMVB videos. Ainol is a Chinese company and the device costs $144. By the way, it seems like 1280p HD displays aren’t available after the final search by PMPToday. And the search on Google also suggests that 1080p is sometimes wrongly written as 1280p.
