Viliv S7 hits Dynamism from $629

Importers Dynamism have released pricing and specification details for the Viliv S7, the latest ultraportable touchscreen device from the Korean company.  Coming after the surprisingly popular S5 and well-received X70, the S7 adds a QWERTY keyboard and uses a more traditional netbook-style form-factor; according to Dynamism, when it drops in the US it’ll be priced from $629.

That gets you the entry-level S7 complete with Intel’s 1.33GHz Z520 processor, 1GB of RAM and a 60GB hard-drive.  Next up is the S7/32ssd, which as the name suggests switches out the HDD for a 32GB SSD, for $659.  Finally there’s the S7/32ssd/3G, which adds in an integrated HSPA modem along with the 32GB solid-state drive, for $799.  That 3G modem is expected to be voice-capable, so you could feasibly – and assuming you have deep pockets in every sense – leave your cellphone at home and rely on the S7 for calls.

No exact word on when Dynamism will get their stock in, but we’re hearing from several bloggers in North America and Europe that demo units are flying out from Viliv themselves.  That would certainly suggest that the S7 is imminent.

Intel Jasper Forest embedded Xeon CPU

Intel have been teasing with some pre-show chip information in advance of their IDF (Intel Developer Forum) kicking off September 22nd.  As well as talking up their manufacturing expertise – Intel describe themselves as “by far the most advance of any semiconductor manufacturer in the world” – they’re also tipping their upcoming Jasper Forest embedded processor platform.

intel xeon 5500

Jasper Forest will be built on 45nm processes but use 32nm technology for 27W system power savings, together with incorporating the I/O hub onto the processor.  That will allow for PCI Express 2.0 ports, RAID 5 and 6 support and Intel 3420 chipset connectivity directly from the CPU.  Intended for use in embedded, communications and storage equipment – such as routers, VoIP systems, NAS and wireless infrastructure systems – Jasper Forest offers Nehalem-based Xeon 5500-series processor performance but in a more economical, cooler package.

The first hardware partners using Jasper Forest will be revealed at the IDF, together with further detail on how Intel’s 32nm CPU processes have been certified.  CPU wafers for the company’s Westmere platform are expected to go into revenue production in Q4 2009; that will be accompanied by “smarter System on Chip” production.

Nokia N900

Nokia N900

Definitely, Nokia wants to reveal all the surprises before the Nokia World with Nokia N900. In fact, Nokia has hardly anything about his potential as a phone, which obviously does, but focuses mainly on the possibilities of Internet access, in the execution of applications and storage.

Features

The specifications of the Nokia N900 will cause no problems to compete with other models in the market. In fact, not far removed from those who have the N97. We found a 3.5 inch touch screen with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels and, inside, an ARM Cortex-A8 processor at 600 MHz, making it compatible with OpenGL ES 2.0, therefore, with games and 3D applications.in the market.

Nokia N900

Offers 256 MB of RAM, while storage is identical to the N97, 32GB of internal memory expandable with microSD cards to 16GB. Besides the physical QWERTY keyboard sliding type of disposal, also allows its use with a virtual keyboard on screen, something that many users will appreciate.

The camera is not the most powerful with 5-megapixel, coming with Carl Zeiss optics and dual LED flash. Do not forget either the GPS receiver compatible with A-GPS and Maps application preinstalled Ovi.

Operating System

The main innovation of the Nokia N900’s Maemo operating system 5, based on Linux, support for multiple desktops, where you can create shortcuts to contacts, and applications. In addition to installing widgets that display information to us or allow us to control some of its functions.

Nokia N900

Internet

Internet surfing will be one of the strengths of this device. This has several points of support, both in point hardware and software. For connectivity we can use the 3G support with support for HSPA, or Wi-Fi.

When browsing, the resolution of your screen will help, but also the software that integrates, as the browser is based on Mozilla code. In addition, we see the content in full screen to maximize space. To this is added support for Flash 9.4, allowing you to play videos from sites like YouTube or Vimeo.

Multimedia

With 32 GB of storage space and resolution, multimedia features take on special relevance. Obviously, including music players, video and photos, compatible with multiple formats and also will allow tuning to Internet radio stations.

It adds to the FM transmitter, allowing us to hear the sound through radio, DLNA compatibility, to send the content to our television and the mentioned media formats, including MP3, AAC, WMA, MP4, AVI, WMV, H.264, XviD, …

The Price and availability in the market

Although it might seem, by specifications, the price of the Nokia N900 is not an exaggeration, at least when compared with other models from this manufacturer. It will cost 500 euros before subsidies and taxes, so we might find more or less accessible to an operator and data plan is almost essential.

Nokia N900 will be from October this year when it became available and I believe that a giant step forward for Nokia. Freed from the burden of S60 and little to offer good development tools and shop applications, this phone and its successors may become serious competitors.

VIA NetNote 1080p HD

VIA have announced their latest ultraportable reference design, the NetNote, which the company describes as “a mashup between the netbook and the traditional notebook.”  Based on VIA’s Surfboard mainboards, using either VIA C7-M or Nano CPUs, the NetNotes will have screens ranging from 10.2-inches to 12.1-inches and play back Full HD 1080p video.

VIA NetNote System 540x426

Other possibilities include an HDMI port, hardware video acceleration and integrated 3G, all from VIA’s Surfboard platforms.  Positioned as an OEM solution (rather than being marketed directly to end-consumers), the NetNotes could also have an FM transmitter, digital TV receiver with extendable antenna, or even an externally-controlled MP3 player which wouldn’t require the NetNote to be booted up.

From our talks with VIA about the platform, it seems they’re not so much focussed on kick-starting a new niche with NetNotes – in fact it’s more of an internal name – but instead wanting to draw attention to netbooks with performance.  The VIA NetNote Turnkey Systems will have their formal debut at ShenZhen TechForum Autumn 2009 next week, where the company is promising 35 designs together with pricing and availability information.

viewsonic PJD2121

ViewSonic PJD2121 model can create images with sizes up to 60 inches although the projector placed near the screen, but being compact we find an occasional inconvenience. The first is resolution, which can only be 800 × 600 but can natively connect sources to give us up to 1080i video. The other hits of this type of product is the luminosity, well below normal.

In this projector from ViewSonic would be speaking to 400 lumens compared to 2,000 on average to be found in a traditional projector. However, the result will be satisfactory if we do not use in bright environments, because with only 100 lumens projections have gotten good in our tests.

No appliance better than the classic geek Roomba to finish this special edition so good times has brought us this August.

Roomba is a classic appliance has for years in the market iRobot. With the return home after the summer, leaving new Roomba vacuum cleaner market with a mission as always: keep your house clean with just one click.

LG GW620 1st Android phone

Though it already broke cover at IFA out in Germany a few days ago, LG's just sealed the deal on its very first Android phone -- the GW620 landscape QWERTY slider. Interestingly, the "Etna" name seen at IFA is missing from the official press release, but otherwise, the 3-inch touchscreen mentioned lines up nicely with what we'd previously known. Camera specs aren't mentioned here, but as far as we know, it's going to clock in at 5 megapixels and the phone looks to be loaded with a very bone-stock Android build sans LG-specific enhancements like an S-Class port. Interestingly, the GW620 flies in the face of LG's super-cozy relationship with Microsoft and its commitment to concentrate on WinMo in its smartphone line, but you can tell that the company's wording in the release is very carefully-chosen: the phone is geared at "making the smartphone experience more accessible for typical users" and "young professionals who demand a full QWERTY keypad," which we guess makes WinMo a more business-savvy platform in LG's eyes. We think we're comfortable with that characterization -- for now, anyway. Look for the GW620 to start showing up in "select European markets" in the fourth quarter of the year.
