AMD to sell cheap active ‘DisplayPort-to-DVI’ adapters

AMD to sell cheap active ‘DisplayPort-to-DVI’ adapters

AMD’s Eyefinity technology has been awesome in its way. With the new Eyefinity technology, you can now play your favourite racing games or First Person Shooter games with an amazing three or six monitors’ setup that’ll be a very jaw dropping for some people, like me. However, Eyefinity has never been cheap to setup. Buying additional three or six monitors is already putting on a strain for some people with budgets. What’s more, you can only run it on monitors that have DisplayPort, which even some current models lack. Your solution? Buying $100 ‘DisplayPort-to-DVI’ adapters that will slaughter your wallet.

New iPod Nano can playback video?

New iPod Nano can playback video?

Erica Sadun of TUAW has, for some unknown reason, been sniffing around the codes for the internal settings property list of the new Apple iPod Nano. What might be some clumsy ‘forgotten to delete’ or excess/leftover code has given the slightest possible hint of video playback capability for the ‘now touchscreen-ed’ iPod Nano. That includes options for things like TV subtitles, captions and alternate audio, and even a fit-to-screen option — for the perfectly square aspect ratio of the nano’s screen, perhaps? Then again, I’m already reluctant to watch videos on a 3-inch display, what’s more on a 1.5-inch screen. Who cares what type of content it has. A banana will look like a peanut in there.

1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon devices to only arrive at end of 2011

1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon devices to only arrive at end of 2011

Qualcomm has announced that their 1.5 GHz dual-core QSD8672 Snapdragon processor will ship to manufacturers by the end of this year, but it is unlikely that devices powered by this mysterious chip will come that soon.  Qualcomm predict the arrival of these devices powered by this dual-core petite nuclear reactor will only drop from the sky at the end of next year! You’ll still get it in Christmas time, no difference. But the only difference is the year. Big bummer. On the bright side, thought, the less powerful 1.2 GHz dual-core MSM8x60 chipset will probably drop to your paws by early next year.

Google Instant let you search faster than you can blink

Google has announced their latest software product, or a sort of enhancement for their Google search engine, at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. The Google Instant will go live straight away, delivering immediate results while you’re typing. Basically, Google Instant will somehow ‘predict’ what you’re searching, and take the best possible sense in related word to show you instant results below, as you type finish your word. Google describes it as a fundamental shift in search, which will give them a milestone bounce in leading the search engine market. This is made possible from the ‘ajax’ coding language for web developing, which is used by Facebook to instantly punch your friend’s latest wallpost few seconds ago to your active wall. Read more…
