That mouse right besides you, running on power or battery, wouldnt have ever thought of being a bygone reality and why would it have thought, the human brain that developed it, could someday come up with something better. Probably its notion would have been affirmative, had environment not been the issue but since latter is the hard fact, an alternative is struck.A wireless photovoltaic-powered computer mouse is under trial, and if the solar powered mouse could yield positive results, then the aforementioned could certainly head to the landfills. Sole Mio, as they call this worlds first solar powered mouse was user tested by Minister Cramer of Holland, to see if solar power is actually capable of keeping the device charged for a busy days routine.The objective of developing this mouse is to see whether renewable energy and amazing design can lure users, with the same intensity as its predecessors and to help get rid of hundreds of millions of batteries and power that is used to run such devices around the world. In spite of all this, the success of the mouse will depend upon the usage pattern of the patrons, are they willing to charge the unit at the window during the daylight.




Tossing that dirty keyboard into a tub of warm soap water for a clean-up is no longer an urge that you have to repeatedly supress due to those well-understood, practical reasons. The Silver Seal washable keyboard adds a simple and utterly sensible innovation to the normal keyboard to fend off the disastrous consequences - waterproofing. A gotcha moment for you too there, wasn"t it ?The Silver Seal USB keyboard can be dunked into a tub of water, held under a running tap, or simply tossed into the dishwasher along with the rest of your utensils which are waiting to get scrubbed up. In any case, cleaning this keyboard is a no-nonsense matter since it has a special Seal Shield that makes it totally water-cum-spill proof. And laser etching ensures that the keys won"t fade off either. The shield also has an "Antimicrobial Protection" layer that makes sure that the mucky microbes are kept at bay. With such features under its belt.

Benq amazes us once again with the launch of the new compact classy digital camera. The DC X725 is as small as 12.5 millimeters, and the material from which it is made of is steel, so it is stainless and more resistant. It comes in four different colors, black, red silver, or pearl. It has a 1/2.5 CCD and can go up to 3x optical zoom. The ISO sensitivity can go up to 1600 on photos and 4000 on videos. You can also increase the memory, as it has an SD/SDHC memory card support. The range of mega pixels is,for the time being, unknown, but we can assume it has more then the previous release of Benq that had 7.2. We also have no information regarding the price

Modem

Modem, an acronym for modulator/demodulator, is a device that allows one computer to "talk" with another one over a standard telephone line. Modems act as a kind of interpreter between a computer and the telephone line. Computers transmit digital data, expressed as electrical impulses, whereas telephones transmit voice frequencies as analog signals. To transmit digital data, the sending modem must first modulate, or encode, a computer's digital signal into an analog signal that can travel over the phone line. The receiving modem must then demodulate, or decode, the analog signal back into a digital signal recognizable to a computer. A modem transmits data in bits per second (bps), with the fastest modems transmitting at 56K (kilobits per second). An internal modem is housed within the computer itself, while an external modern is a separate device that is connected to the computer via a cable.
power supply

A power supply for just about every electronic device on the market. Also called an "AC adapter" or a "charger" if used to recharge a battery, it plugs into the wall and converts AC current to a single DC voltage in most cases. There are also adapters that output a different AC voltage. Laptops have both an external power adapter, also called a "power brick," and an internal power supply. If an external power adapter is not used with an electronic product such as a desktop computer, the DC current is created in a power supply inside the unit.



floppy drive
A floppy disk is a portable computer storage device that permits easy handling of data. Commonly used with personal computers, notebook computers, and word processors, such disks consist of flat, circular plates made of metal or plastic and coated with iron oxide. When a disk is inserted into the disk drive of a computer, information can be magnetically imprinted on this coating, which will thereafter permit easy location and retrieval of the same data.
