The Samsung Q1U Premium UMPC released
The Samsung Q1U-EL is a 1.5-pound, ultra portable notebook computer. Compared to other ultra light notebooks on the market, it is very inexpensive at around $825. Has Wi-Fi (wireless connectivity) built-in.The device weighs 1.9 pounds and has a 1.33 Intel core solo processor. The tiny, split keyboard from the original Q1U is slightly improved but still not great. It is, however, great for entering passwords or quick URLs. The speakers sound terrific and it’s probably the most usable of the ultra-mobile devices that I’ve tried. But those aren’t the great aspects of it. These are…
One of the biggest complaints about many mobile devices is that they just run too hot.it’s not pleasant to use a device under those conditions. under the heaviest load so far, the device has only been slightly warm.It can hear both the fan and the hard drive but the sounds are really quite quiet. between a lack of heat and the quiet using the device is a pleasure

Samsung Nv8 Digital Camera
Samsung introduced its premium NV (New Vision) range of high-spec digital compact cameras in the summer of 2006, the company's fortunes in the digital camera market have dramatically improved, and looking at the NV8 it's easy to see why. Launched in August last year alongside the similarly-styled 10-megapixel NV15 and 12-megapixel NV20, the NV8 is a very stylish 8-megapixel pocket compact camera featuring a 3x zoom Schneider Kreuznach lens, a 2.5-inch 230k monitor and a wide range of options all operated by Samsung's innovative Smart Touch control system.
The camera's smart contemporary design is obviously an important selling point, but unlike a lot of fashion cameras it doesn't sacrifice usability for style. The distinctive shape, which it shares with many other models in the NV range, is very easy to hold, with a large handgrip on the front with a rubberised insert for extra grip, and a protruding thumb grip on the back that also doubles as the strap lug. The camera's body is all metal, and the matt black finish of my review sample proved to be very resistant to marks and scratches. While it is small and light, it feels solid and well made. The lens does protrude somewhat when deactivated, and the unusual shape of the body means that the NV8 isn't the slimmest camera in the world, but it is by no means bulky and fits well into a pocket or handbag for a night out. The camera measures 96.5 x 60 x 27mm, but for some reason Samsung's official website insists that it is actually 18.6mm thick, which it is if you don't include the lens or the handgrip. What exactly is the point of this practice of measuring the camera at the thinnest point of the body? It's like me saying I'm only five feet tall, if you don't include my head and neck. It's not fooling anyone, and is a completely irrelevant measurement for any practical purpose. For example, if you're considering buying a camera pouch to protect your new NV8 and want to know if it will fit, you want to know how thick it is including the lens and the handgrip, not without. These features are not removable, and are undeniably part of the camera body, so surely it makes some sort of sense to include them in any measurement of that body?.
The NV8, including its lens and handgrip, is currently selling for around £130, which is a very good price for its specification. Considering its unusual features and design it's difficult to find a close comparison, but the Nikon Coolpix S210 is around £150, the Canon Powershot A580 is around £140, the Olympus FE-280 is £130,
Garmin Nuvifone:Clone of iPhone
The Garmin Nüvifone is an Internet-enabled mobile phone and personal navigation device manufactured by Garmin. It makes use of a touchscreen with virtual keyboards and buttons, similar to Apple's iPhone. The product was announced on January 30, 2008 and only a prototype (presumably not fully functional) was available at the time.Compared with iPhone, Nüvifone is a 3G hybrid handset that can be docked into a vehicle mount. Once snapped onto the vehicle mount, it can automatically kick in the embedded GPS navigation and simultaneously enabling hands-free calls. It is featured with a geotagging built-in camera that can help recipients of the geotagged photos trace to where the photos were takenAccording to the first press release by Garmin, it will be made available to market in the third quarter of 2008
The Nuvifone's got the whole iphone design going,with a large 3.5inch touch screen,MP3 /MPEG-4/AAC playback and camera.
The nüvifone is an innovative mobile phone that has a wide range of advanced yet easy-to-use features. The all touchscreen device is the first of its kind to integrate premium 3.5G mobile phone capability with an internet browser, data connectivity, personal messaging, and personal navigation functions in one device. When powered on, the 3.5-inch touchscreen display reveals three primary icons — “Call,” “Search,” and “View Map” which allow the user to effortlessly master the nüvifone’s functions.
The nüvifone is the ultimate multi-tasker. Calls are easily initiated by tapping the “Call” button and selecting a name from the contact list or by using the on-screen keypad. When the user is trying to juggle talking on their phone while entering their vehicle to start a trip, the nüvifone makes the transition simple.

Nüvifone users can search for locations like “coffee shops” and Google will sort the results based on the user’s current location and relevance. Information provided by Google includes a web-based rating so that users can select the most appropriate destination and route directly to it. In addition, the nüvifone includes a web browser incorporating premium features and touchscreen operation for an optimum mobile browsing experience.
