LOGITECH DOES IT AGAIN


NOW THIS IS A MOUSE


Anthony Dhanendran, Personal Computer World 29 Aug 2006


Logitech's Revolution MX is an attempt at seachange in mouse design. The idea is to make a clean break from the past and design a mouse that, once you've tried it, you won't want to do without.
This laser mouse uses a non-visible laser to track movement rather than red light from an LED. That means it's more accurate, as well as being able to operate on more surfaces than a standard optical mouse.
It's also wireless, operating on RF and using a small USB transmitter.
There's a separate dock for recharging the mouse's internal, non-removable battery.
The big difference is in the wheels. The most obvious addition is a horizontally mounted scroll wheel on the left-hand side of the mouse.
This doesn't scroll sideways (the top-mounted wheel already does that), but it's configured to switch applications. It can be changed to perform a zoom function instead.
The top wheel, in addition to scrolling in four directions, can be set to click or not. Some people prefer a clicking scroll wheel, allowing document movement one line at a time, while others want a smooth scroll.
Cleverly, this mouse does both, even at the same time. The software can be set to detect the speed of scroll, so for a slow scroll it clicks while if you give it a spin, the wheel unlocks and scrolls smoothly. This also comes in useful for games, when scrolling through weapons choices.
There is also a small button set just back from the top wheel. Clicking this while a word or phrase is highlighted will bring up a search box for that phrase using Yahoo or Google.
It's clever, but we found it hard to use and even a little annoying, so it's fortunate it can also be switched to another function.
The best thing about the Revolution MX, however, is its design. The mouse's body fits snugly in the hand and it's hard to go back to an old-fashioned oval mouse after using one of these.
It might look a little odd, with a couple of apparently random protrusions, but these are designed to feel just right in your hand, and they do.
One qualm is the mouse's battery life. While many optical mice will last around a month in general use from a pair of AA batteries, the MX Revolution requires a recharge every five days or so.
It's not a particularly big problem or an onerous task, you can just leave it on the dock every night, for example, but it is an annoyance especially if it has run out and you don't have anything to fall back on.
The price tag is higher than most optical mice, but for something that's going to sit in the user's hand so much and, in the case of the MX Revolution, fits so well, £80 isn't that expensive.
One final problem for 10 per cent of the population is that Logitech has told us there won't be a left-handed version of the Revolution MX. Posted by Picasa

THE 100.00 LAPTOP

.
THE 100.00 MACHINE


So, it's official: the hundred-plus-dollar laptop spearheaded by Nicholas Negroponte -- and called the OLPC up to this point for lack of better terminology -- can now be definitively referred to as the CM1, or The Children's Machine. The 7.5-inch, 1,200 x 900 pixel configurable and mesh-networkable notebook, which runs a Fedora Linux distro powered by a 400MHz AMD Geode processor, is meant to supply kids in developing countries with a super-cheap way to access the Internet and thus bridge the so-called technological divide. Although India has publicly scorned the string-powered lappy as "pedagogically suspect," several other nations have expressed interest in submitting the minimum required order of one million units; so unless players like Microsoft suddenly swoop in with their own alternatives, it looks like the CM1 is well on its way to seeing widespread distribution. Three cheers for The Children's Machine, and three more for the fact that we can stop awkwardly referring to this product by the name of the project. Posted by Picasa

THE BUMP KEY

THIS TECHNOLOGY

THE BUMP KEY












Article by engadget.com
The Bump Key: A new old threat to the security of mechanical locksThe most popular locking mechanism in the world utilizes the pin tumbler design, first developed 4000 years ago in Egypt and then rediscovered and perfected a century and a half ago by Linus Yale. There are billions of these locks in the world and they come in all sizes, configurations, and security ratings. Some are secure; most are not, and even some high security rated cylinders can be easily compromised. All that is required to open many times of pin tumbler cylinders -- the kind of lock that probably keeps the bad guys out of your home -- is a bump key and a tool for creating a bit of force. The bump key shown above opens an extremely popular five pin lock, and the plastic bumping tool is produced by Peterson manufacturing, although many others are now being offered for sale. With these two cheap implements, anyone -- and I do mean anyone -- can get into your home or business in a matter of seconds.In 2004, this relatively old technique of opening locks was rediscovered by the European locksmith community in Germany and other countries. As the word spread as to the ease with which certain locks could be bypassed, several sports lock picking clubs and notably the members of TOOOL began to examine the issue more closely. Subsequently, tests were conducted by the prestigious consumer research organization in the Netherlands in 2006 and published last March. In early April, we issued a security alert on security.org with regard to the vulnerability of United States Postal Service and Mail Boxes Etc. locks. Two White Papers were also posted, dealing with the security threat and legal issues involving bumping: A detailed technical analysis of bumping and Bumping of Locks: Legal issues in the United States.

The Bag of The Future-www.kata-bags.com

We always assumed that the "bag of the future" would come with a little robot that carried it around for you, but new additions to the popular Kata lineup of cases prove that we'll still be toting around our own gear for quite some time. What make the 17 new members of the Ergo-Tech series so futuristic, then, are a number of innovative materials such as "Elasto-Guard," "yelloop," and "Flexi-Shield" (all trademarked, so they must be special) that promise to deliver unrivaled comfort to the wearer and protection for his/her equipment. The wearable products in this collection are all form-fitting bags that flex and stretch for the geek on-the-go, while the carrying cases feature configurable interiors for surrounding your most delicate hardware with extra layers of padding. Like most of the totable solutions offered by Kata, these Ergo-Tech models are targeted mainly at photographers and filmmakers, but their numerous compartments and value-added features should help them appeal to a much wider audience -- isn't the future great? Keep reading to see a few more of the products that Kata has managed to bring back in time for its grateful customers...

V-Gear's TalkCam Beauty at CeBIT
Unless your webcam is saving lives, most people are merely content using theirs to communicate with family and friends. But the good lawd knows we can't always get dolled up to video conference: enter the V-Gear's TalkCam Beauty with its "One Button BeautyMode." Never having to cover up a fat zit again had us excited for a second, but then we found out just how V-Gear defines beauty: white, super-white, normal and bronze. We're a little dubious about the effectiveness of V-Gear's tech (or exactly why anyone would want to be super-white), so it might just be smartest to take the $39 V-Gear plans to sell these for and finally go invest in a comb, some shampoo, and some concealer.

Sprint is ahead on this one

Instead of sitting back and frowning on bandwidth hogging EV-DO to WiFi routers, Sprint has decided to jump into the game themselves with a new device made by Linksys. Accompanying the new router -- which, like current solutions, merely hosts existing PCMCIA EV-DO cards -- is a new USB dongle that brings EV-DO functionality to owners of laptops that lack PC card slots, or adventurous desktop users. Both products are due in the second half of this year, with the router going for "slightly under $200." The USB dongle still lacks a price, but we imagine it will be rather popular, especially for MacBook Pro owners with their incredibly functionless ExpressCard slots.
