Multitask your iPhone the cool way

Multitasking is relative when it comes to each individual’s perspective of how you should do it. Many might have been let-down when they saw Apple’s multitasking function. But now Multifl0w has beautified multitasking on the iPhone, but only through the means of jailbreaking your iPhone. Here’s how it works:

Dell ships new 10.1-inch Mini 1018 netbook with a sexy black

Dell ships new 10.1-inch Mini 1018 netbook with a sexy black

Here we have yet another entry to the crowded market of netbooks. Dell has just unleashed their latest Inspiron Mini 1018, which takes design cue from the Inspiron R series.

The Mini 1018 is powered by Intel’s latest Atom processor N455 with 1.66GHz of juice. The 10.1-inch WSVGA screen still uses the 1,024 x 600 resolution. The obvious changes would be the usage of 1GB DDR3 memory instead of the good ol’ DDR2, besides the implementation of 802.11n Wi-Fi. Other typical suspects would be 250GB hard drive and inbuilt webcam. The body has been coated with a sexy fresh Obsidian Black paint. It’s already available now in most regions at a price of $450 (£279 for UK), and ‘coming soon’ for the rest of the world.

Scythe introduces new TMLF design CPU cooler

It’s been quite some time since we saw new CPU cooler from Scythe. The company has released a new midrange cooler known as the Rasetsu.

The cooler is designed with a heatsink that is divided into two blocks which each consist of the T.M.L.F. structure (Trident Multi-Layer Fin), six copper heatpipes and a 120mm PWM fan that operates at 470 to 1,900 RPM. The Rasetsu will retail for $55.

Lian Li Mini Tower might look smart in the living room

Lian Li Mini Tower might look smart in the living room

Lian Li has announced yet another one of its upcoming mini-tower PC case called the PC-Q11. Measuring 200mm x 326mm x 260mm and weighing 2.42kg, this aluminium case supports both mini-ITX and mini-DTX motherboards, which most HTPC boards come in. The casing features a front I/O panel with two USB 3.0 and two audio ports, one 5.25-inch external drive bay, two 3.5-inch internal drive bays, two 2.5-inch internal drive bays and a front 140mm fan.

Size wise, it’s rather big, considering nowadays you can easily get a HTPC like the Shuttle or Mac Mini which performs well and is super small for the living room. But there’s always the ‘DIY’ market out there. The PC-Q11 will begin shipping at the end of the month in four colour options: black ($95), silver ($95), red ($115) and white ($175).

The High Definition watch doesn’t tell time straight away.

The High Definition watch doesn’t tell time straight away.

Tokyoflash, the famous name that made amazing watches besides some ridiculously boring ones too. Now they’ve gone and design yet another futuristic watch that looks like it’s from a Star Trek filming set. It’s called the High Definition.

The watch features an always on multi-colour LCD interface that displays the current time. Hours are shown in square blocks and five minute groups are shown as lines outside the square blocks, in the same position as hours and minutes as a clock face. Meanwhile, single minutes 1-4 and seconds are shown in the central zone. I don’t really comprehend the use of LCD over here, as the battery life would somehow be terrible for the ‘always-on’ LCD panel, thought they fail to mention how long it would last actually. Yet another watch that requires me to stare at it for few seconds before knowing the time.
