Verizon Cell Phone

Posted by on Tuesday, 20 April, 2010

Another impressive Verizon cell phone which was recently launched on the market is the LG Chocolate Touch. In fact, the LG Touch is more of a smartphone than a cell phone, being equipped with many powerful high-end features like Wi-Fi and GPS, huge touch screen and a full QWERTY keyboard. The LG Chocolate Touch comes in standard package with several accessories including a charger, a headset, a USB cable and the usual software CD and manuals plus a microSD memory card.

In terms of design, this new Verizon cell phone keeps the classic design for a QWERTY-smartphone. It comes with a slider case made of resistant plastic with 4.30 x 2.20 x 0.47 inches in dimensions and 4.23 ounces in weight. These values make the phone look very solid and even if you think they are quite high for a smartphone in our days, the LG Touch feels very comfortable in your hands and it is very portable.

The front side of the phone presents a touch screen and below it, three navigation buttons: the call and end keys plus a menu button. Above the display a secondary camera for video calls is placed and there is also an ambient light sensor. On the sides you will notice a volume rocker, a camera shutter, a microSD card slot, a 3.5 mm audio jack and a miniUSB port. On the back side you will find only a speaker and a camera. The camera has a 3.2 Megapixel sensor and it is capable of taking pictures at a maximum resolution of 2048 x 1536 pixels. Being equipped with many functions like Intelligent Shot, autofocus, self-timer, white balance and color effects, this camera will take great quality photos with great details and sharp colors.




The LG Chocolate TOUCH comes with a 3.0 inch TFT capacitive touch screen with a native resolution of 400 x 240 pixels and support for 262K colors. This display will offer excellent quality images with great contrast and vibrant colors, and thanks to the high resolution, it is excellent for watching movies. The display comes armed with several features like Vibrating Feedback, Accelerometer and VZ Navigator, features which makes the display more interactive.



The internal memory of this Verizon cell phone has 1 GB of free space. If you need more space, the MicroSD card slot will allow you to extend it up to 16 GB. Like all smartphones, this one also comes with many multimedia functions like music player, video player, FM Radio, Dolby EQ, My Verizon, Voice commands, Image editor, Drawing pad, visual voice mail plus many others. For connectivity, the LG TOUCH is equipped with all you need. It comes with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB, GPS, TV-out and support for GSM, GPRS, EDGE and 3G. It also comes with support for 1x / EVODO Rev. 0, social networking (FaceBook, Twitter, MySpace), blogging, instant messaging, email, chat and Mobile Broadband connect. The battery life is assured by a Li-Po 1000 mAh battery. This battery manages to keep the unit on for almost 5 hours and 20 minutes of conversations and up to 470 hours in standby mode.


Is this nice looking browser really Internet Explorer 9?

Posted by on Thursday, 1 April, 2010


Seeing as today is April Fool’s Day and the source of this pic is some random Chinese site and it looks great unlike previous versions, let’s tread carefully here, m’kay. But that pic is supposed to be of IE 9.

The overall design clearly follows the same design cues found in Windows 7 Mobile: sharp lines and solid colors. Gone are all the extra buttons, labels, and craziness that have become standard in Internet Explorer. There are only basic navigation buttons, text-input bar, and pages/settings buttons. That’s on par with Chrome, which is saying a lot considering the last few versions of Internet Explorer have seemingly been an exercise in clutter.

Maybe this is the new Internet Explorer. Combine the sleek look with the hardware-accelerated browsing demo’d yesterday, and some folks might actually switch back to IE. Release the right product and anything can happen. I switch back to PCs from Macs because of Windows 7 and I don’t think I’m alone. [LiveSino via Download Squad]



M-Edge Guardian Floating, Waterproof Case For The Kindle

In the whole ‘traditional paper book vs. e-paper book’ debate, neither side scores too many points when it comes to being waterproof. But thanks to M-Edge’s new Guardian Case, owners of the latest generation 6 inch Kindle can take it in the bath, the shower, even the pool, without worrying about the consequences of mixing electronics with water.

It’s made of molded plastic and is available in 5 different color tints, and thanks to its dual-hinge, integrated gasket and four-latch closing system, the case remains watertight in water up to 1 meter deep. Three internal buoyancy chambers ensure the Kindle never sinks deeper than that on its own, and flexible sealed cutouts allow for full access and functionality of all the navigation buttons and keyboard. Pricing info isn’t available just yet though, since the Guardian isn’t expected to be available until sometime in the Spring of this year.

How to Use the iPad Interface

Posted by on Wednesday, 27 January, 2010

One of the biggest lingering uncertainties about the iPad has been how exactly one uses it. Well, now we know, and it’s surprisingly familiar.

As anticipated, the operating system is best thought of as an evolution of iPhone 3.0. That means that apps are running the show, with the same tray at the bottom and the same accelerometer capabilities.

To access the screen, you slide to unlock, just like on your phone. The display is practically identical (though biggie-sized, obviously), with a Home button situated at the bottom. You call up apps the same way you do on your phone, and they automatically go to full screen. You can also swipe through pictures and pages, again just like on the iPhone.

But how does it feel in the hand? Well, it’s an inch thin and weighs just 1.5 pounds, so it’s definitely easily portable. And since it’s intended to be a portable device, it’s got a pretty crazy proposed battery life: ten hours of video playback, and one month of standby charge.

A primary concern has been how the keyboard will work. Our money was a split-screen keyboard, but it turns out they’ve opted instead for to copy the iPhone again here, with a keyboard taking up the bottom half of the display when called up. It’s not meant for your thumbs, apparently—you’re expected to type on it as you would a physical keyboard.

There is an optional keyboard dock, that allows you to type on a standard-sized keyboard, but it doesn’t look like it lends itself to easy packing. If you’re taking the iPad on a roadtrip where you need to type easily, you lose a lot of the portability advantage. Seems like a halfway solution to a legitimate concern.

For web surfing, the page renders just like a browser, with navigation buttons on top. For email, you can bring a pull-down menu of the inbox.

One major disappointment—in addition to not having all that fancy face recognition I was personally pretty excited about—is that the iPad doesn’t appear to support multitasking, meaning you can still only run one app at a time. Then again, maybe he’s saving that for a big reveal at the end? Update: Nope. No multitasking.

So basically, it looks like the user experience is going to be just like a big ol’ iPhone, for better or for worse. I’m especially curious to see how intuitive the keyboard is. But otherwise, all the multitouch features and app arrangements should feel like old hat. Guess it’s time to start brushing up on our tablet sutra, everybody.


[CES 2010] Hey Look! Samsung’s Got An E-Book Now Too!

Samsung E6 E-Book (Image property OhGizmo!)
By Andrew Liszewski

In David’s “What’s Buzzin’?” post about this year’s CES he mentioned 3 early trends we’ve seen including 3D TVs, media players and ebook readers. And this afternoon Samsung delivered on all 3 fronts. In addition to a slew of 3D LED TVs and a new PMP with a see-through AMOLED display, the company also announced their E6 and E101 E-Books. They come in 6-inch and 10-inch screen sizes (you guess which model # is which) and feature 802.11b/g wireless connectivity as well as Bluetooth for downloading content directly to the device.

And in addition to a clever sliding mechanism which hides a set of hardware navigation buttons and speakers, you might also have noticed that the E6 pictured above doesn’t feature hard or soft keyboards like the Kindle or Nook. That’s because it’s got a touch screen with built-in handwriting recognition.

Unlike other e-book devices, Samsung’s E6 and E101 enables handwriting directly onto the display, allowing users to annotate their reading selections, calendars and to-do lists with a built-in electromagnetic resonance (EMR) stylus pen. This dedicated pen prevents mistypes caused by hands and other objects that may graze the screen’s surface. A variety of pen and eraser thicknesses make the Samsung e-books perfect for drawing and writing.

Yeah, it kind of sucks that you have to use a stylus in this enlightened age of touchscreens, but the technology leaves their readers with a very crisp and high contrast e-ink display, not to mention the fact that most of us are far more comfortable writing with a pen than our fingers. Both E-Books are expected to be available sometime in early 2010 for $399 and $699 respectively.

Need Help and Knowledge About Microsoft Access Database – Read this Post

Posted by on Friday, 16 October, 2009

Many users of the Microsoft Access database consider creating a form to be very easy. But many of them know that a form has properties that can control behavior and look of the form. In this tutorial you will find out how to use the property sheet for managing your form.

Form properties manage everything concerning form, its looks and functions. All Access database objects have their own properties. And every item within a form like label, text box and button has its own properties also.

You can access these properties through the property sheet and in order to bring it up you should double click the button in the form’s top left corner. You will see that there are different categories of properties in the property sheet.

The format category controls the looks of the form. These properties can be used to control the appearance of the form and what features you want it to have. You might choose to have navigation buttons, record selection or scroll bars in your form. You may find that there are too many properties in the sheet to remember all of them. That is why if you select the property and press F1, you will be able to learn more about it. With the help of a help page, you will get a brief explanation about how to use the certain property and an example of its usage.

Then there are also data properties. With the help of these properties you can control the data source the form is bonded to and no matter if you wan users to change it or delete it and what users can do with the data on the form. So, if you don’t want the users to see the data with the certain form and only you can let them enter the data, then you should change the property of Data Entry from No to Yes.

The Event properties define actions needed for an event occurring such as the data update or form opening etc. If you click on the button with three little dots, you will be able to define the action for every property to perform. You will be able to define an action with the help of Choose Builder dialog window that will come up.

There are also other properties that contain different items and you can really benefit from using some of them. Some of these properties are the Modal and Pop Up properties. If you want your form to appear like a pop up window, you can put Yes in the Pop Up property. And if you put Yes to the Modal property, your form will have the exclusive focus. And if you want to focus on another object you will have to close the form first.

The industry of computers and computer applications expands all the time. But you can turn this issue into your advantage by catching up with this knowledge and becoming an expert, for example in microsoft access database sphere.
