Sony’s cutting-edge JS1 all-in-one is truly a nice looking machine, but it’s jamming a lot of interesting tech too. Packing a 20.1″ 1680×1050 display, the Core2Duo system bears 3GB of memory and 500GB of storage. Audio plays through Dolby-based virtual surround sound and Sony’s unified Sound Reality chip can record, edit and play back SA-CD music.

The VAIO JS1-Series all-in-one PC appears to provide customers the inconceivable: it has a large, high-resolution screen, yet it draws less desk space than most notebooks. It attains this seeming contradiction by virtue of its sleek and fashionable design. The compact keyboard can be slotted underneath the main unit when busy, allowing only a modest footmark on the desk. In spite of its base space requirements, the JS1’s main unit integrates a liberally sized 20.1-inch screen make out with multiple lamp technology for surpassing luminance.

Unlike last year’s WInMo-running Pantech Duo, the Matrix prefers for a squarer dumbphone interface while adding 3G HSDPA, GPS and a slick looking design into the mix.

For an $80 phone, the Pantech Matrix is actually sound deal. Pantech could have skimped on the build quality and thrust out an inexpensive, light phone, but rather produced a product that finds solid and slides smoothly in any direction. Despite being about an inch thick, the Matrix doesn’t feel oversized—they made it as narrow and short as possible so that it doesn’t feel too clumsy. As an outcome, the Matrix rides nicely in the hand, and when the backlit keyboard is brought out, it almost feels sleek. And though buttons aren’t physically apart, each one has a bit of a bubble on it that gives a dainty click when you press down.

Intel has acquired NetEffect, a manufacturer of Ethernet products and technologies for server computing clusters, for $8 million in cash. In purchasing NetEffect, Intel acquires the company’s products integrating iWarp, an Ethernet choice to InifiniBand, which is a flipped fabric communications link used generally in high-performance computing. NetEffect’s product portfolio includes 1-Gb and 10-Gb Ethernet adapters for servers and blade contours, as well as 10-GbE application-specific microcircuits.

Intel said NetEffect’s technology complement the chipmaker’s portfolio of 10-GbE server adapters, which include single- and dual-port versions for copper and fiber executions. The combination of Intel and NetEffect technology will provide Intel to address customers’ most crucial 10 Gigabit Ethernet demands, including server virtualization, convergence of network and storage traffic, and server compute clusters.

The area of concentration for Intel’s 10-GbE technology is host virtualization, which demands a storage area network or network-attached depot to classify workloads from data.

U.S. Sen. Barack Obama has become the first presidential candidate to advertise on video games. Obama’s ads have showed up as billboards that Xbox 360 players view as they race through towns in Burnout Paradise. The candidate’s face and a message about early voting “Early Voting Has Begun” come out on the billboards. The ads also come out in other racing games, including: NASCAR 09, NHL 09, NBA Live 08, Need For Speed (Carbon and ProStreet), NFL Tour, and Skate.

The ads appear in the online edition of the games, which earmark for alterations. They have been directed in 10 swing states: Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Indiana, Montana, North Carolina, New Mexico, Nevada, Ohio, and Wisconsin. Players may not arrest the full content as they speed by the billboards, but the face and the Obama campaign colors are well placeable.

The read latency is 75 microseconds. Intel claims its SSD bears 100 times better performance than hard disk drives. The drives has no moving parts, can also lower energy prices and are more dependable. SSDs, however, are likewise a lot of times more expensive.
