We’ve taken a look at the Nokia N96 and the Nokia N85 yesterday, so let us shift our focus over to the Nokia N79 today. This will be the latest addition to the vaunted N Series range of cell phones that aims to bring together a perfect blend of intelligent, customizable design with the functionality of a multimedia computer. According to Juha Kokkonen, Director, Nokia N Series, “The Nokia N79 packs cutting-edge technology into a compact design - a characteristic of the iconic Nseries - that allows people to discover, create and share their passions with others. It has been designed for those who want a device that is as appealing as it is powerful and comes with interchangeable covers that have automatically matching screen themes. This balance of performance and style means that it is a powerful and defining step forward from the popular and very successful Nokia N72 and Nokia N73.”

Revo of the UK has just unveiled its latest DAB radio tuner, the Pico RadioStation. Not only do you get to benefit from both DAB and FM radio broadcasts, the Pico also comes with the latent capability to stream both Internet and computer content over a LAN connection. What’s most interesting is the compatibility of this device with DAB+ (an improved radio standard with error correction) in addition to support for AAC+ compression. It is relatively safe to assume that the Pico is one of the first few portable tuners in the world possessing such technology despite a diminutive size that stands at 6.6″ tall. Other features include a 12-hour battery life, Ethernet and Wi-Fi connectivity, a 3.5mm headphone jack and RCA line-out, all packed into a splashproof shell. The Revo Pico RadioStation will retail for £170 when it hits the UK this September.

Recently, I obtained some information about a company known as NaviSis, as well as their latest products. All of them are based on Thunderbolt and Lightning technology, which allows tracking of their digital pens “with the use of the difference of velocity between light and sound”.

Considering that the up-and-coming Windows 7 may use a lot of touch-based technology, it might be time to look into ways of interfacing with the computer that do not include the keyboard and mouse. Navisis is surfing the wave of the future with four products that can convert a Laptop into a Tablet-PC like touchscreen.

Hawking Technologies has recently announced that it will begin to ship the first Wireless-300N WiFi Networking Adapter which sees an integration of second generation Dual Antenna Dish Technology for extreme WiFi performance. Shaped after a miniature satellite dish, the wireless adapter features a Hi-Gain dual-antenna feed design which is capable of boosting WiFi distances by up to 600% in comparison to standard embedded applications. I guess the folks at Hawking Technologies got it spot on when they remarked, “The problem with wireless networks these days is not the speed, it’s the distance. Regardless of how fast your network is, if you can’t reach the wireless signal, it simply won’t work. We understand this at Hawking and are very excited to announce the release of the HWDN1 Hi-Gain Wireless-300N Dish Adapter. Our second generation Dual Antenna Dish Technology builds from our very successful Wireless-G Dish antenna design and boosts the performance in both speed and range. The result is the most powerful 802.11n USB network adapter on the market.”

NVIDIA is at the top of its game, and looks set to remain so in the meantime as they prepare to saturate the market with even more graphics cards for gamers of every strata and level of society. The new products will be from the GeForce and nForce lines, including the new GeForce 9800 GX2, GeForce 9800 GTX, GeForce 9600 GT GPUs, along with the nForce 790i Ultra SLI media and communications processor (MCP). All these claim to push your computer’s performance to its maximum, regardless of whether you indulge in the latest operating systems, photo applications, mapping software, games, and HD movies.

Considering that Mother’s Day is about a month away, it might be a good idea to at least think about what to give that woman who bore you for nine months. You could give her the latest gadget, but if you’re mother is anything like mine, she is not too familiar with the latest in technology.

Yet I can’t think of a better gift to give your mother than the Digital Foci Pocket Album. What better gift for any mother but pictures of her children, or perhaps grandchildren?

The Digital Foci Pocket Album allows you to download up to 74 photos on 8MB of internal memory. It works by using a user-friendly Photo Viewer Software that can convert JPEG to BMP images from the computer to the Pocket Album.

In other words, you can go ahead and set up the Pocket Album with all the pictures that mom would want on her keychain, or you can let her do it. If it were me, I would put the pictures on Pocket Album, and then show her how to change them if she wanted to. You should also show her how to charge it, considering it only has 9 hours of battery life.

Communicating with your family and friends over an instant messaging program is one of the cheaper (or even free) ways to keep in touch across a few thousand miles. Unfortunately, technology hasn’t exactly caught up with the high definition craze that is sweeping across living rooms in Europe and the US - until now, at least. Quanta and ooVoo have teamed up to offer high-quality, real-time video communication over the Internet, as long as you have a HDTV or notebook . Guess girlfriends who are talking to their boyfriends over this new technology will have to put even more foundation on their faces in order to hide the zits that seem to sprout up like nobody’s business.

So you’re thinking of giving that old workhorse at home a new lease of life? Why not throw in this WiFi and Bluetooth PCI card?

All in one PCI card for getting not making your computer Wifi ready, but also turning your computer into a Bluetooth enabled workstation. Simple to install, and with easy to use software included, this powerful dual use PCI card features the very best and latest in both Bluetooth and Wifi technology. This is the computer accessory you need to make your computer the best it can be.

Chinavasion is carrying it for $20.97 a pop. Hey, anything that kills two birds with one stone at that price ought to sell well.
