Saudi Arabia Blocking BlackBerry Service

As planned earlier, the Government of Saudi Arabia finally started to stop the BlackBerry services or Blackberry applications starting on Friday (06/08/2010). A number of users in the country reported that the BlackBerry service started not working since Friday morning.

"I sure the BlackBerry services to have stopped," said one user in Jeddah, as reported by AFP. The average users began to realize that his BlackBerry device is no longer functioning as usual since 9:00 pm local time.

Earlier, on Tuesday, the Saudi Arabian telecommunication regulator has asked the three mobile operators that serve to halt BlackBerry smartphone service from this Friday. The reason, the BlackBerry service does not meet the regulatory requirements set by the government can not monitor the content of messages that are distributed among BlackBerry users.

All transmitted data is encrypted on the BlackBerry service with a highly secure and managed from a server in Canada. With this causes, make difficulties Saudi Arabian authorities to monitor the possibility of abuse that could be considered threatening state security.

Saudi Arabia steps undertaken only difference five days after the United Arab Emirates (UAE) said the same reason. A new BlackBerry smartphone in the UAE will be banned starting next October 11, 2010 and still awaiting response BlackBerry providers, Research In Motion (RIM), Canada. Blocking BlackBerry will also be conducted by the Government of India. Then where else the state will block the Blackberry?

Energy Being Recycled Diapers

Japan - A Japanese company has developed new techniques to recycle the diapers that have been worn into energy. The machine that created this company called Super Faith nappy waste and its contents in three stages.

First, this machine destroying diapers became smooth as powder, then is dried and sterilized diapers. Once dry, sterile, powder was used as a diaper granules of energy that can be burned in a particular heater or stove.

The company estimates that every kilogram of grain diapers can produce 5000 kilocalories of heat. The company also has installed two processing engines that diaper on a hospital in western Tokyo, Japan. Machine at the hospital every day more than 1,400 pounds of stirring the diapers that have been used.

Not only Super Faiths diaper waste processing, the company Total Care System Fukuoka, Japan also has followed in his footsteps a way to destroy a diaper and then used as pulp and plastics used as raw materials or building materials. Total Care System Fukuoka, a company in England, Knowaste also used to treat diaper building materials.

Asrock Ion 330 will Change Domination

Chipset has an important role in the performance of a computer. The reason is the chipset that regulates the data traffic between the processors to memory, hard disk, and other components. His role will be even greater if the functions of these computer graphics are onboard, because it means the graphics chip in the chipset.

As the maker of the Atom, Intel has a favorable position in terms of chipsets. Almost all the netbook and nettop on the market today use Intel 945GSE chipset, this chipset but comparatively "old" and has a relative performance is not special.

Well, the role that Intel 945GSE try rocked by nVidia chipset through ion. nVidia claims, Ion will provide a much better performance than Intel 945GSE great, mainly from the graphics that become the mainstay nVidia.

Asrock Ion 330 is one of the few products that pair the Intel Atom chipset nVidia Ion. This product itself comes in the form nettop small size. The price is also cheap (U.S. $ 350), although the records you still have to buy a monitor, mouse, and keyboard separately.

Use of Ion chipset makes this nettop has an HDMI port, one thing that did not meet in the nettop Anad which uses the Intel chipset 945GSE. In addition to HDMI, on the rear panel you will also find an Ethernet, 6 USB ports, VGA Out, and audio ports. At the front, just a DVD Writer, with no USB port or multiple audio as we meet in the PC today. This is quite unfortunate because we have to make a little trouble to install the flash on the back side. Which also should be noted, 2 of 6 USB ports will be used by the mouse and keyboard because there is no port PS / 2 in this nettop.

When first turned on, we were quite astonished to find how the quietness of this Asrock 330 Ion. If there is no indicator light is flashing, we do not know if it's burning nettop. Solved a little silence while we try to play DVDs, but with levels that do not interfere.
Behind the weakness, nettop is proved to have a pretty good performance. Sure, use the Intel Atom processor makes this nettop not suitable when used for heavy applications like video or change the format of rendering images (see test results). But for simple applications such as Office or the Internet, this device does not see a problem. Chipsets and graphics capabilities of any such appointment Ion nVidia: much better than Intel 945GSE. But the chipset is still a jerky when playing videos Full HD (1080i), thus reducing the meaning of the existence of an HDMI port.

One thing that is important to note, Asrock 330 ion can still be overclockable. Through the BIOS menu and OC Tuner software, you can increase the FSB of the Atom 330 processor used this nettop. When we try, can touch the processor speed 2.1 GHz rate, or 30% of the standard speed of 1.6 GHz.

At full-load conditions, power is absorbed ion Asrock 330 only about 40 watts. So to conclude in simple language, this nettop has a slim shape, decent performance, and efficient electricity. A rather unfortunate is the lack of facilities and Wi-Fi memory card slot. Still, we think Asrock Ion 330 could be the ideal solution for home, office, or cafe that needed a compact machine.

Asus motherboard overclocking via Mobile

A new history in terms of overclocking Asus has been etched. Series ROG (Republic of Gamers) Maximus Extreme III its Intel P55-based could prove to be overclockable via a Bluetooth-featured mobile phone. This didemokan Asus in front of the visitors that took place DreamHack Winter 26 to 29 November last.

These capabilities thanks to features Bluetooth RC's motherboard allows users to monitor hardware status and change parameters wirelessly through a full-featured PDA phone Bluetooth. This feature also supports the Bluetooth standard functions, such as stereo music playback, Skype instant messaging, Internet access and synchronize your phone / PDA. The process was easy; to switch modes from a standard overclock and just by pressing a button on the rear panel I / O.

Maximus Extreme III, as well as series III Maximus Formula and Maximus III Gene is designed for overclocking enthusiasts and gamers, even carrying ROG Connect. ROG Connect is overclocking interface that allows users to monitor and perform tuning their main system through a notebook or netbook with USB. This is similar to what a race car technician.

However, this latest version to add other functionality, the BIOS update and recovery, see the diagram, and the voltage and frequency settings on the hardware level in real-time. Update BIOS from a notebook is certainly please the overclockers.

Because SanDisk, the microSD prices fell sharply

Looks like no one else wants microSD memory card. MicroSD price was recorded 15% - 20% lower than prices offered by chip vendors.

According to Digitimes, the device manufacturers are now reluctant to buy a microSD card directly from the manufacturer of NAND flash chips. Because they can get better prices from a third party.

Efforts to control prices had remained high microSD made by Samsung with a way to limit the amount of release. But the weakening market demand, and the impact on microSD price decline. The chip manufacturer was asked to lower bid prices.

Black sheep of the price decline is SanDisk's microSD. SanDisk microSD cards began supplying to the NAND flash device maker based in Taiwan with cheap price. The flash-based device manufacturer and then sell the cards as its own brand.

According to DRAMexhange, on November 11, the average price for the 1GB microSD and 2GB respectively down 4.51 percent and 4.86 percent.

Downloaded Chrome OS Ready Next Week?

Operating system from Google search engine authority, Chrome OS, ready to be downloaded next week. Thus the gossip on the Internet.

The bad news, though Google says it has worked with Acer, Adobe, Asus, Freescale, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments and Toshiba on its OS Chrome, the number of devices that support earlier this operating system will be limited. According to TechCrunch, these limitations are due to the absence of support for basic components such as network interface hardware and graphics cards. As a result you will not be able to download the Chrome OS and run it on any machine.

Google initially said that the netbook that can run this OS will not be available to the public before the second semester of 2010. However, the code might be open (open source) in the coming weeks, as promised in Google Chrome Blog.

Also different web browser Chrome with Chrome OS, despite the same name - will be coming to Apple machines in December. In a letter to the developers, Nick Baum (Project Manager Chrome browser) says that the Chrome beta version of 4.0 that was only available for Windows and Linux will also be present in the Apple Mac. For your information, Google launched Chrome browser in 2008 and currently still in experimental stages.

Microsoft sells Linux tool

If you can not beat him, then Embrace it. As soon as the saying goes. It seems this is what Microsoft's open source.

Lord of proprietary software has just confirmed his pace on the open source arena. Microsoft will sell Linux tool.

Microsoft just bought the assets associated with the Teamprise from SourceGear. This could mean that the developers are using Eclipse IDE, or operate on several operating systems, including Unix, Linux and Mac OS X, will build applications with Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server.

Microsoft spokesman said, the functionality of the Teamprise Client Suite will be integrated into the Visual Studio product line, which started with Visual Studio 2010. Microsoft initially treat open source like a naughty stepchild. However, recently the company being headquartered in Redmond was softened.

S. Somasegar (Senior Vice President, Developer Division, Microsoft) said that they knew its users every day face the challenge of management, collaboration and development in diverse environments. IT industry, including Microsoft, so he said, must take steps to make interoperability happen.

Rupert Murdoch Not Need Google Help

Do not want content-generated content network Google indexed media company, Rupert Murdoch was going to take action. Seasoned entrepreneurs owner News Corporation was planning to remove all indexes content from Google's search results in the near future.

It is said Jonathan Miller, chief digital officer of News Corp. in Monaco Media Forum last week. The plan, all content produced by media under the umbrella of News Corp., like The Times, The Sun, and the Wall Street Journal will be cleansed from the Google index engine in the next two years.

According to him, the media industry will not survive if the content-high-quality content is given away freely. He was sure, without the help of Google's search results, the articles made by the media News Corp. can survive and find a place in the hearts of readers.

"Traffic coming from Google's often not desirable that the reader immediately abandoned. That's exactly what actually harmful to us. The effect of the economy was expected. So, you can live without it," Miller said as reported by the Telegraph website.

Miller said there are many approaches to charge of online content and things like that that News Corp. continue to think about. Previously, Murdoch had said that News Corp. plans to apply tariffs to access all the articles made under the media start next June. However, the plan may be delayed.

News Corp. is including this long felt disadvantaged from the articles that appeared through the search engines. For example, the Wall Street Journal article that should be paid if accessed from the site - only free for the first paragraph - but it can be fully accessed if from a Google search result link.

News Corp. will close the meeting emphasized the reach of Google into the content-led content and media industries to follow. This is called News Corp. as a real competition between the camps of free and paid.
