Who says that Intel-based PCs are blowing away the competition these days? Well, I’ve actually heard quite a few people say that, but this laptop from MicroWorks looks like it could really stand up to the competition. The Vega notebook is powered by an AMD Turion 64 X2 processor, dual (yes, dual) Nvidia GeForce Go 7950GTX GPUs with 512MB of memory (each). You’ll also get your choice of either two 160GB SATA drives or 600GB worth of storage (as a cost to your performance). You won’t find a bottleneck at the memory, as it comes with 4GB of DDR2. Other niceties include a Blue-ray RW drive, EV-DO connectivity, built-in GPS and a built-in TV tuner, all optional of course. |

It's official. Apple has filed a patent for a "multi-functional hand-held device" in which the user interface adapts to the function needed. And the patent mentions a wide range of functions indeed: PDA, mobile phone, music player (naturally), camera, video player, game player, GPS, remote control, net terminal, and "handtop". Did you catch that? "PDA" and "mobile phone"? The rumoured iPhone is starting to sound like a smartphone to me, and I don't think it's such a bad idea. They may be able to get a little more market penetration with a more conventional handset, but I wouldn't be opposed to a smartphone offering as well. |

The VoomPC integrates the Mini-box M1-ATX 12V power supply unit, this is specially designed for vehicles since it can protect itself from power surges, it can also eliminate car battery drain by monitoring car battery levels, even when the car is off. Vehicle manufacturers will be able to easily integrate a wide range of GPS navigation, communication, entertainment and information functionality into private cars or professional service vehicles such as law enforcement, rescue and commercial transport, where access to data on the road is essential. |

Sprint Nextel has made it easier for mom and dad to play Big Brother. Their new Family Locator Service, which launches today, lets customers use the GPS capabilities built into phones to track up to four mobile phones over the internet or on a wireless device. Parents can ask the service to periodically find a phone and display it on a road map. They can also set an alarm so that they will be notified if their child isn’t in a certain place by a certain time. Children know that they are being watched, too – they receive a text message every time that they have been located. |

If you've ever been to a major tourist attraction, there's a good chance that they presented you with an opportunity to rent an "audio tour." This would usually consist of little more than a tape and a set of headphones that would help guide you through the maze of a museum. Well, the whole idea of an audio tour is finally stepping into the 21st century with the introduction of the Orpheo NEO Visitor Digital Assistant. This is much more than a book on tape. Instead, you get a handheld PDA-like device that sports a large touchscreen for ease of use, "high quality" sound, and even more techie features like GPS and an IR receiver. To be used at museums, zoos, theme parks, and larger national parks, the Orpheo NEO -- sold by Orpheo USA, a subsidiary of Ophrys Systems -- is supposed to "revolutionize all cultural visits with its technical and aesthetic features." And because it's wrapped in rubber and the loudspeakers contain a special aperture, the NEO is well suited for outdoor sites too. |

While E-TEN may not be as big a name in the market of Windows Mobile-powered smartphones as say HTC, I have to tip my hat off to the Taiwanese company for their latest handset. Designed to be an update to the “popular” M600 handheld, the M600+ (yes, the plus means more, except the minus of an integrated GPS) offers a few upgrades over its predecessor, while maintaining most of the things that made the original what it was: a simple design with a whole lot of connectivity. |

The detection of emergency beacons will be greatly improved by the introduction of Europe's satellite positioning system, Galileo. The Galileo satellites will carry transponders to relay distress signals to search and rescue organisations. In connection with this, representatives of the Galileo project attended the recent 21st annual Joint Committee Meeting of COSPAS-SARSAT, the international programme for satellite-aided search and rescue. |
