Smart Bookmarks from Haleron for 1300 SEK

Navman Smart Bookmarks is a new so-called smart book from the company Haleron. This is a small portable PC that is placed in the segment between mini-computers ( netbooks ) and smart phones (smartphones). A price tag of 1300 crowns do computer wise to pay attention.
After minicomputers came clever books - a new concept of small super-cheap laptops. The usual mini-computers will now have better performance, in line with price tags go up. Smart Books have taken the small notebooks in the other direction.The price will be very low and performance is very low. One could say that a smart book is like a smartphone - advanced mobile phone - although designed as a portable computer.
The company Haleron has developed a new model called Mio Smart Bookmarks, which Liliputing writes about. The price seems to be at 1300 crowns, even if it is not fixed yet. It is uncertain whether the computer will show up in Sweden, but the concept is still worth paying attention to because we get to see smart books on the Swedish retail shelves come.

The hardware of the Mio Smart Book is very low compared with such a small laptop.The processor from VIA is ticking in only 266 MHz, and internal memory is at 128-256 MB. The storage of 1 GB flash memory in the computer. In addition there is support for the technologies, WiFi 802.11b/g, Ethernet port, three USB ports, SD card reader and the potential for 3G modem.
As operating systems have you chosen the Windows CE 6.0. Theoretically, it is also possible to run the Google Android or some form of Linux on your computer. Windows XP, however, is ruled out because, as Liliputing writes, does not work on ARM processors (as the VIA model is). This is a computer to surf and send e-mail. If you intended to run Photoshop and Counter Strike on it, forget it.

Trend Micro is the best protection against current virus threats

Trend Micro, which develops security software in the form of antivirus and other things for consumers and businesses, took first place in a new test done by NSS Labs. The test was different against the usual anti-virus test, which involved looking at current threats from the Internet.
When carrying out tests to check how good your antivirus protection against viruses, trojans and other dangerous code, usually this is in general done by faking an attack on a computer with antivirus software. It installs simply a variety of viruses on your computer. This is often done in a closed environment and it is a great way to find out how good the protection is active.
But it is by no means a perfect solution. More interesting is that if you do that NSS Labs and testing antivirus programs in a live environment. NSS Labs has tested nine known viruses by exposing them to current threats. Example, it has sent the computer to dangerous websites viruses downloaded. Then you can see which of the security programs that stopped the download, and who was keeping an installation on the download could not be stopped.
Based on this test has thus been given up two percentage values. One that tells what percentage of the dangerous code that was stopped as soon as it tried to be downloaded to your computer, and one that tells you how many of those who managed to download but was stopped during installation attempt.

Trend Micro picked as said home first place with 96.4 percent. The software from Trend Micro used is Trend Micro Internet Security 2009. In second place we find Kaspersky to 87.8 percent. The figures are quite evident with the Trend Micro really managed to create a really good protection against harmful software on the Internet.
But one thing that should be noted is that security companies are going out with the 2010 versions of their programs. Those that NSS Labs has tested the 2009 model year, which means that the new versions will hopefully be even better at stopping the dangerous code live. The security package and the antivirus which was included in the test were:

1. AVG Internet Security, version 8.5.375
2. Eset Smart Security 4, version 4.0.437
3. F-Secure Internet Security 2009, version 9.00 build 149
4. Kaspersky Internet Security 2009, version 8.0.0.506
5. McAfee Total Protection Suite 2009
6. Norman Security Suite 7.1
7. Norton Internet Security 2009, version 16.5.0.135
8. Panda Internet Security, version 14
9. Trend Micro Internet Security 2009, version 17.1.1250

Worst protection of the test gave Eset Smart Security, which just managed to stop 67.9 percent of the dangerous code that attacked your computer. AVG and Panda are not particularly good at. In the case of AVG, it is important to emphasize that it is the commercial version and not the free version. The commercial AVG package is updated faster than the free version, and therefore reasonably better protection.

Michael Dell saw Netbooks in total

Michael Dell , founder and head of datortillvarkaren of the same name, saw the mini-computers ( netbooks ) at the ankles in a speech he made on the Churchill Club in Silicon Valley.According to Dell, consumers are dissatisfied with their purchases within 36 hours. Why he says so, when Dell heeled lots of mini-computers?
The news that Michael Dell total squared mini computers has spread through the IT sphere. It was during a speech he made as he explained that customers who buy mini-computers become dissatisfied after one and a half days, because the screen is too small and of poor performance.

If you take a user who’s used to a 14- or 15-inch notebook and you say "Here’s a 10-inch netbook, they’re gonna say 'Hey, this is so fantastic. It’s so cute. It’s so light. I love it. Dell told Silicon Valley’s tech-obsessed Churchill Club during an appearance Tuesday night.' But about 36 hours later, they’re saying ‘The screen’s gonna have to go. Give me my 15-inch screen back."

I understand that this applies to some consumers.There are certainly those who buy a mini PC as it is cheap and cute, but misunderstand its purpose.A mini-computer is never a replacement for an ordinary computer. It is a complement. You will not be able to replace your ordinary notebook PC to a mini computer and think that you can use it like any other machine at any time.

Mini computer is slow and small

The performance is poor. The screen is small.But for its purpose, to be able to take your computer anywhere and be able to get an affordable PC that used to surf and send e-mail, is the mini-computer is an excellent choice. I have an Asus Eee PC 901 Go that I am extremely happy with. Sure, the keyboard and screen too small for me to work for long periods with it, but that's not why I bought it.
I bought it because I do not always want to carry with me a standard laptop. When I sit on the train, or in a hotel room, in the passenger seat of a car, or the couch of a friend, then my little ultra-portable computer perfectly .
Dell mini computers in their catalog and they sell well by it. So why choose when Michael Dell to cut a product they actually sell a lot of?

Poor business selling mini-computers

The truth is that computer manufacturers are not fond of mini-computers. They want us to get real laptop instead, but since the demand for mini-computers are so big they can not help but sort of. Minicomputers, however, is not they earn any money.The profit margin for these computers is very small. They escape, after all, a lot of components, while the price tag is usually very low.
Something else that computer manufacturers today earn big money is to send the software from third-party. This can include the image editing software, Office suite, antivirus, and so on. The problem with netbooks is that they have for the poor performance to be preloaded with, for example Adobe Photoshop Elements or a major security package. So there goes a hefty portion of their income.
The user does not understand the limitations of mini-computers do that they will encounter problems. And when they have problems call the support team - something that is far from free for manufacturers. If there was something more than the profit margins disappear guaranteed a good piece of cake to pay for support cases of various kinds.

Minidatorn in the future

So we will see mini-computers in the future? Yes, I am quite sure. But it shows where we are headed. When the first mini computer arrived, the Asus Eee PC 700 , low price tag of less than 3000 dollars. Today, the new mini-computers on the double. Sure, there are still cheap versions, but the mini-computer is getting ever better performance and increasing price tag .
It will be interesting to see how the market evolves in 2010. The days of new snot cheap netbooks said to be over, but the very concept of the small ultra-portable PCs will continue to exist.

Nokia 3G Booklet, fully stocked mini-computer with a high price

Nokia 3G Booklet has been a lot of attention in the media who report on minicomputers. It usually is when a known producer comes with a new computer, and especially as Nokia moving into a new market. 3G Booklet seems to be really interesting, but cost a lot.

Nokia's first mini-computer is named forthe Nokia 3G Booklet presented atNokia World 2009. 3G Booklet is a mini computer that still exist only in a test version that some have the advantage of testing. Slash Gear , for example, has written a small test on your computer. They tell us that the early version running Windows 7, which requires a portion of the right weak Intel Celeron processor at 1.6 GHz.

Nokia 3G Booklet has built-in 3G modem for those who want to connect to the Internet via mobile broadband. It is also equipped with an HDMI connector, to which you connect your computer, for example, a flat screen television. Furthermore, there is a built-in GPS , also good for those who want to take the computer away from the office.
According to the New Technology , the computer will cost at least 6000 , when they come to Sweden. It is overkill for a small laptop, even if it contains a lot of good features. An interesting detail is that Nokia has entered the battery life on 3G Booklet for up to 12 hours!

HP Mini 311, a mini computer with good graphics card

HP's new Mini PC 311 make an attempt to allow for gaming and watching movies in HD, by building up a real video card. Instead of the usual Intel chips are using the computer Nvidia Ion processor.

A minicomputer are not particularly good performance, and its main purpose is to run Internet applications. But many consumers looking to do more with their mini-computers. Watching movies is such a popular application that does not always work perfectly with the usual graphics chips from Intel. By using Nvidia Ion Processor for graphics hope HP Mini 311 become an option.

HP Mini 311 is the source said TechRadar able to handle Call of Duty 4, which is a really good rating. In addition, the computer should play the movie in full HD quality. Mini 311 is equipped with HDMI connector that in addition to Full HD graphics also performs audio in 8 channels and 24 bits.
LCD screen measuring 11.6 inches and handles 1366 x 768 pixels (widescreen). Some further specification does not seem official, in addition to the computer that TechRadar saw had 3 GB of internal memory.
Nvidia Ion is great for the mini-computer and gives them far better graphics performance. Crete are small and power efficient, so they do not drag down battery life considerably. We'll have to wait for tests to see how long the HP Mini 311 will run Full HD movies or games on the battery. The price tag is, converted from British pounds, just over 4000 SEK.
Another mini-computer with extra cream, is Acer Ferrari One, Which we wrote about the other day.

Playing Tetris makes you smarter !

Who has not played Tetris? It's probably quite a few of us who are stuck for hours in front of this now cult puzzle game, which has garnered so much success around the world. But did you know that Tetris is good for the brain and can make you smarter?

The classic Tetris was invented by the Russian mathematician Aleksei Pazjitno v 1985th The most famous version was released in 1989 and then by Nintendo for the portable game console, the Game Boy . We who are in their 30s will remember the white console with graphics in greyscale. Here one could sit hours in and hours to reach the blocks in the game correctly.

Now I read in Pryltrend.com that all gambling of Tetris may indeed have been useful. Researchers have examined how Tetris affects the brain and they found that 1.5 hours of gaming per week influenced the development of girls' brains in a positive way. Webzine Curious Vital has written an article about the research report on Tetris .
Since the Game Boy showed up Tetris for the whole world, it has developed an infinite number of clones of the game. Nintendo themselves have run ahead and build lots of variants, including Super Mario in the lead role. I myself have spent many hours on trains and flights to play Tetris for Nintendo DS Lite .
Tetris is the greatest security for all platforms - PC and TV consoles. There are also plenty of games to find on the Internet, you can run directly in your browser. Do you want to try one of the many clones that are of Tetris, you can try JellyTris , which is a cute version of the addictive puzzle game.
So if you want to develop your brain by playing Tetris, there are many ways to go. The research report Curious Vital writes about says it does not require a lot of gaming. It only takes a few minutes every now and then, for the brain to develop, and that example will get easier to make faster decisions. A question raised Curious Vital agrees, is whether computer gaming can make us generally more intelligent . It does not sound quite incredible.
Today I play not so much Tetris anymore, but rather put time in a similar puzzle games such as Shoot the Gems . I find it relaxing and of course insanely fun. But while I see how happy the clock ticking away too quickly ...
What puzzle games of this type do you like? Is Tetris is the favorite?

Crystal Mini HiFi Speaker : Small portable speakers

Crystals speakers gives better deterrent to the sound from your laptop, without requiring any power adapter. Plug them directly into the USB port instead.
Most people who buy a new computer today is investing in a laptop instead of a point.The advantages are of course many, especially that with simplicity can bring your computer where to go. One of the disadvantages, which you might not think about until you use your computer, is that the speakers in a laptop extremely happy is especially good. If the manufacturer does not explicitly put extra effort into the sound, it can be assumed that the speakers are bad.
Would you then be able to listen to music or watch a movie without using headphones, you need external speakers. And here one encounters another problem, and it is that such devices are rarely particularly portable. They are clumsy and they come with an external power adapter that is killing the whole concept of battery-powered mobility.
It is in this area as Crystal Mini HiFi Speaker wants to find its customers. The package consists of two speakers, each with a cord that plugs into a USB stick you plug into your computer. The stream coming from your computer's USB port is enough to drive the speakers so you need no external power adapter.
USB stick is the size of a normal USB memory stick and has an outlet for right and left högtarlare. The actual speakers are in a solid transparent plastic, and they are actually really smart. They are also suitable for small to with simplicity to fit in a standard sized laptop bag.

Easy to install USB speakers

The installation of the speakers does not leave much to be desired. When the USB device is connected to the computer, Windows automatically and adjusted the settings to play sound through the new speakers instead of the built. Some drivers were not required, but it worked out fully automatically with Plug'n'Play.
The big question is of course how Crystal can do on the issue of delivering good sound. I have tested quite a few such small speakers throughout the years, and I can without hesitation let Crystals speakers qualify in the top notes. To be small speakers that also only gets power from the USB port is the amazing sound.  Quite apart from the technical bottlenecks in delivering the speakers are still quite impressive soundstage.
Are you looking for a good pair of speakers for your laptop, you can easily take with you and plug in anywhere, so is Crystal Mini Hi-Fi is a good buy. The only thing I miss is a volume control. We will have to adjust it in Windows or your media player.

Test: Asus Eee PC Box B204

PCOnline has become the first Swedish newspaper received test the new Asus Eee PC Box B204 . There is a small media PC that falls to us the taste, but that does not fit for all users.
Asus Eee PC Box B204 is one of the new models in the Box series of increasingly growing Asus Eee PC segment. This is in contrast to the more famous portable mini-computers, a small desktop computer. With the B204 takes Asus PC into the living room, much because its only connection to the screen is via an HDMI connector .
The foundation reminds Box B204 lot of portable mini-computers. The computer is small and nicely designed, has an Intel Atom processor and 1 GB of internal memory.There are wireless networks with support for 802.11n and Ethernet with 10/100/1000 Mbps and Bluetooth. The storage space consists of a 160 GB hard drive. One difference is that you have chosen to put a real graphics card, an ATI Radeon HD 3450 256 MB . It needed to deliver full HD resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels.
The package comes with an HDMI cable, power adapter, converter from audio-out to S / PDIF, a hearty and good remote control and table stand and a metal structure to mount the computer on the back of your flat screen TV.
For installation you need to have mouse and keyboard can be connected via USB. As usual, Asus has opted for Windows XP SP3 as an operating system , which I think is a good choice. Running Vista on a newer Intel Atom processor and 1 GB of internal memory is not a hit ...
The benefits of Box B204
What I personally think is best with the B204 is the fact that it is running just Windows XP. It will start up in XP and there are no restrictions of any kind. Many other competing media players use their own software, which often are limited and can not handle all file formats. But here, you have the opportunity to customize your system exactly the way you want.
Asus ships with a media player called the Eee PC Cinema . The check via the remote control and interface is so hot and easy to handle. But as with all other media players, there are problems with unsupported file formats. Most cope safely with the Cinema, but you have higher requirements, you can get another player. Just download and install.
The computer is almost dead silent and it looks really great when it is together with color-matched Panasonic plasma TV. All drivers and things worked without any problems, so the entire installation process was painless. The first time I boot up the Windows task bar had gone out of the picture, which was very annoying - until I saw the tool Eee PC Screen Settings , which was located on the desktop, and as adjusted image positioning.
That there are four USB ports, I also think about. Then you can plug in a USB flash drive, external hard drive and the IR receiver for remote control and a radio transmitter to a multimedia keyboard. For example.
Disadvantages of Box B204
The computer running Windows XP is as big a disadvantage as an advantage - it all depends on the type of user you are. I like the ability to customize the system by itself. It is not all do. Are you looking for a media player that can quickly boot right into one easy to use interface where you can kick off the movies that you put on your hard disk, so is Box B204 is not for you.
According to the specifications that were previously sent out by Asus, it would be a DVI port on your computer. It does not. HDMI is the only connection that exists, which is a disadvantage because few monitors have it. Some users want to attach a small monitor to his media computer, having along with flat screen TV, but it is not possible.

Correction: See comments from the readers attention below. There are HDMI to DVI converter, and with such, you can connect to the monitor without any problems.

Like most other Eee PC Box B204 lacks an optical drive , then CD / DVD reader.As a media PC, this is a disadvantage. One would like to throw out their DVD players and just have the computer, but it is not possible without having to add an external reader. Nor is there any TV tuner.
I also found a problem with the software Cinema, and it was that I did not manage to link the files and folders from any device other than the internal hard drive. It was annoying because I would like to play movies and music that is on my network drive.To access these files through the Windows of course, was not a problem because the computer nicely connect to my wireless network. So with another media player solves the problem itself.
Verdict of the Eee PC Box B204
As I wrote in the preamble of the Asus Eee PC Box B204 is not an option for everyone. That I am aware of. However, signed-target and I really liked this little machine. It is a media PC that offers many opportunities, but at the cost of it is not suitable for the novice user who wants something easy. Again, it is Windows XP that will start when computer starts up, and it opens up many opportunities but it also means that you need to fix some himself before it works as you want.

Among the most envied in Windows and Mac users, there is certainly the exposé. For those who had ever heard of the exposé is that OS X system through which enables its users to view a list of all open windows on the desktop in the form of comfortable thumbnail previews.
To the delight of all the "envious," Then came Switcher, a free application that brings functionality exposé on Windows 7 and Vista. It is extremely light on hard disk and RAM (where it does not take more than 8 MB) but it only works when the system is in active use the Aero interface (the one with transparent windows).

In the latter case, the option is enabled by software settings and the user must choose which corner of the screen associated with Switcher.

Are also customizable colors, fonts and words placed above the thumbnails displayed on the Switcher, that when it is running (you can also set to start automatically with Windows) resides in the system tray.
