Posted by Atasha as Blogroll, Bluetooth, Cheat Codes, Computer Peripherals, Gadzooki News, Games, Portable Media Players, Robotics

Some call them mobile phones others cellular phones or cell phones for short(geez.. four letters???!!!??), whatever you'd want to call them they're the best solution to our never ending need for communicating along with the lust for gizmos and gadgets. Analog phones started as mere telephones without wires that worked on closed networks with batteries as large as a suitcase. When it went digital, the magic began when Nokia unknowingly included a free service programmed within their phones called SMS or texting to some. People, the ever curious creatures we are, discovered this and went on texting sprees that topped calls these technological wonders were supposed to do....

Luxeed Dynamic Pixel LED Keyboard

When I saw this keyboard at ThinkGeek I said "wow... now this is such a cool concept!". Each of the 430 keys are programmable to display the color you wish.

Simtrix Slidepoint

Posted by Mr Butterscotch as Computer Peripherals

Ever wanted a completely new pointer device? Well, there are a few weird and wacky devices out there, some of which are completely useless. This one however looks to be a bit more practical than most. The Swiftpoint Slider from Simtrix is designed exclusively for situations where there isn't a huge amount of desk space to operate. This makes it perfect for the laptop (especially the literal) user. The 'Slider', as the name suggests, actually smoothly glides over the keyboard keys - making the keyboard area function as a mousepad. Impressive, I'm sure you'll agree. Of course, most - if not all - laptops come with a touchpad built ...

Want, nay, NEED, more RAM!

Posted by DummyGeekGurl as Computer Peripherals

I was playing with my best friend’s now-fixed Neo laptop on Christmas Eve, when I had a few realizations: RAM is really king. The same Internet connection that I have loaded up so... Zippily on her computer. I was wondering: “Why on earth did YouTube load fully as it played on her machine while on Sayuri I wanna bang my head on the monitor constantly?” The difference: 1 GB RAM on her ~~Windows XP box~~, and 512 MB on my ~~OS X box~~. Great. Now I seriously want these. :p Image source: Atty. Ralph Losey's blog He plays great classical music. Sigh. Memories ...

Can Solid State Drives Help Extend Battery Life?

Posted by J. Angelo as Computer Peripherals, Editorial, Energy, Featured Articles, Hardware, Hardware and Gadget Features, Mobility, Notebooks

Notebook designers and manufacturers have long searched for the holy grail of power efficiency. For this reason, the architecture of portable computers has evolved so much since the advent of laptop computers. And one of the main ways to conserve battery life is by reducing hard disk spinning. Recently, the trend is going towards solid-state storage. This means drives that have no moving parts. Most popular of these is flash memory. They're cheap, durable, and can hold data even without power (unlike volatile RAM, which loses data when power is off). Since flash memory can allegedly reduce consumption caused by spinning hard drives, some manufacturers have switched to using solid state drives for their ...
