LG E90 Is An Unbeatably Slim LED MONITOR

Cairo – LG Electronics’ (LG) new E90 monitor is the company’s slimmest LED monitor to date at just 7.2 mm in depth.

With more and more consumers watching movies and videos on their desktop PCs, the quality of the monitor is more important than ever before.

The E90 is easily the best choice for watching action movies or sporting matches because with a response time of just 2 milliseconds, the monitor’s display remains clear and bright even during fast-moving action sequences.

And LG’s Image Booster software, blurry streaming content from video sites such as YouTube are significantly enhanced so they look terrific on the E90’s vivid display.

“The E90 is the result of advanced technology and beautiful design coming together in perfect alignment,” said Mr. Thomas Eom, LG Egypt Managing Director. “With its revolutionary features in terms of design and picture quality, the E90 is the leading example of the company’s “SUPER LED” monitor line that is setting new benchmarks for style and performance.”

In keeping with its ultra slim design, the LG E90 places the power supply and the socket connecting the monitor with the PC on the back of the stand, an innovation called EZ cabling.

In addition to the reduced footprint offered by its light weight and slim size, the E90 manages to reduce both energy consumption – as much as 40 percent less than conventional CCFL backlit LCD monitors – and use of hazardous materials such as halogen and mercury in its manufacturing.

LG’s newest monitor was on display at the 2011 CES Innovations Awards, where it was recognized as an “Honoree” product in the computer peripherals category. The E90 is available at retailers across the UAE.

Apple Is Now The Most Valuable Company In The World

 

As we know Apple is the largest smartphone manufacturer of the world. Now Apple is the most valuable company in the world. According to MacRumors, the market valuation of Apple briefly passed ExxonMobil. The market valuation of Apple reached $341.55 billion. ExxonMobil, which is the previous most valuable company is now at 2nd position. The market valuation of ExxonMobil was valued at $341.42 billion. For those who don’t know, ExxonMobil is a popular American energy company that started in Steve Jobs’ garage 40 years ago. ExxonMobil drills oil from many parts of the world.

You should note that Apple didn’t pass ExxonMobil by rising up in price. The overall markets have dropped over the past couple weeks, so both Apple and ExxonMobil are significantly off their highs. This shouldn’t come as a surprise because Apple took much less of a hit than other companies, including financial institutions during the period of recession in 2008.

Apple is Now the Largest Smartphone Manufacturer of the World

Now Apple is the largest smartphone manufacturer of the world. According to a report of market analysis firm IDC, Apple is now the leading smartphone manufacturer of the world with 19.1% international market share and over 20 million smartphones shipment. As we know Apple has only two smartphones such as iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS while other manufacturers has wide variety of smartphones. This indicates that how strong the iPhone brand is. Now Apple is the top smartphone manufacturer with just two models. Apple took only four years to became the largest smartphone manufacturer of the world.

According to the statistics for the 2nd quarter of 2011, Apple holds 19.1% of the market share, Samsung holds 16.2% of the market share, Nokia holds 15.7% of the market share, RIM holds 11.6% of the market share, HTC holds 11.0% of the market share, and others holds 26.4% of the market share.

Gronefeld Watches

Gronefeld Exclusive Timepieces is a relatively new independent watchmaker’s brand from the Netherlands. Raised in a Dutch watchmaking family and educated at some of the best facilities in Switzerland, brothers Bart and Tim Gronefeld decided to design and develop their own complicated timepieces after years of repair and restoration work for other brands.

A few years ago, Gronefeld Exclusive Timepieces introduced a watch featuring a minute repeater and tourbillon called the GM-T06. Now they have introduced a new timepiece -- with a different complication -- called the One Hertz.

One Hertz refers to the second hand that ticks like a quartz watch but is driven by an ingenious mechanical movement. This complication, often referred to as "dead beat" or secondes mortes (to the French), has been used in pocket watches since the 19th century. The dead-beat complication never made it to wristwatches until now, as watch manufacturers were probably afraid that people might think their watches had a quartz movement. Gronefeld Exclusive Timepieces put this complex feature back on the horological map.
We were invited over to a small picturesque village called Oldenzaal to have a look at the Gronefeld watches and workshop.

Sony Cut The PlayStation Vita's Price

Unless you live in Japan, you won't be able to lay hands on Sony's new PlayStation Vita handheld until sometime next year. That's the bad news. The other slice of bad news, since there's really nothing good to report, is that Sony sees no reason to cut the price of the Vita, which they've priced steep for a dedicated games handheld—$300 for the integrated 3G and Wi-Fi version, $250 for one packing Wi-Fi only.

Nintendo's about to slash the price of its 3DS from $250 to $170. The 3DS debuted stateside in March and has the playing field to itself. While it's underperformed going by Nintendo's estimates, it's already sold over 4 million units, and Nintendo predicts it'll top 12 million by March 2012. With Sony's delay of the Vita, Nintendo has the U.S. and European holiday sale season to itself, Apple's next iPhone and the booming Android market notwithstanding.

[More on PCWorld: Hands-On with Sony's PlayStation Vita: Impressive Hardware, Game Play]

So Sony's going to enter the race late, $80 to $130 more expensive than Nintendo, and positioning first-round PS Vita games against secound-round 3DS fare. Are they nuts?

Not at all, says Sony president Kazuo Hirai, claiming the Vita's "very affordable" for all it offers, and adding "There is no need to lower the price just because somebody else that happens to be in the video game business decided that they were going to lower their price."

Or, then again, maybe. “Gamers are increasingly anticipating Sony to lower prices, especially after the 3DS cut,” argues Tokyo-based analyst Hideki Yasuda (via AFP). “Sony is under major pressure to cut the price of the Vita or risk a major failure.”

The 3DS's launch was a mess, let's not mince words. The system itself was fine, but the games were disappointing, and while the 3D effect is kind of cool, it's also painfully inconsistent anytime you're forced to move the handheld around...as required by several games.

But let's assume Nintendo gets its act together. We're looking at several triple-A games coming this holiday, including first party stuff like a Super Mario game, Mario Kart, Star Fox, and Kid Icarus. Then there's promising third party stuff like Harvest Moon: Tale of Two Towns, Dr. Lautrec & the Forgotten Knights, Cave Story 3D, and of course Metal Gear Solid 3D: Snake Eater (well, maybe). No, it's not the strongest holiday lineup we've seen, but all Nintendo needs are two or three first party must-haves alongside one or two third-party hits to move handhelds by the zillions with a four or five to one software attach rate.

Then we're into early 2012, with anticipated 3DS fare like Tekken 3DS (Namco Bandai), Heroes of Ruin (Square Enx), Luigi's Mansion 2 (Nintendo), Paper Mario 3DS (Nintendo), Resident Evil: Revelations (Capcom), and probably a few more I'm missing. Sony's going to need a strong launch lineup to seriously compete.

At the moment, we're looking at: a LittleBigPlanet game, a ModNation Racers game, Uncharted: Golden Abyss, WipeOut 2048 (futuristic racer), Ruin (a Diablo-style hack-and-slash), possibly a BioShock spinoff, Everybody's Golf, Smart As (a block-based puzzler), Top Darts, Virtua Tennis, Super Stardust Delta (top-down shooter), Little Deviants (bunch-o-mini-games), Reality Fighters, Sound Shapes (music-generation platformer), Hustle Kings (pool), and that's all I'm seeing in the "likely" category. In other words, "not too shabby." But will that be enough to convince us to reach into our pockets and produce two or three one-hundred dollar bills, plus whatever the company's charging for games?

Sony's been here before. The PlayStation 3 launched on November 17th, 2006 and cost $500 for the 20GB model and a whopping $600 for the 60GB version. The PS3's U.S. launch game lineup was disappointing, too (exempting Resistance: Fall of Man), but that aside, the chief complaint levied by all was "too much." Sluggish sales ensued, straight through to August 2009, when Sony finally unveiled a cost-optimized "slimline" model and slashed the price $100 (then $400 for the entry-level model) to just $300. Instant (sustained) sales driver.

But some would argue the damage was done, and that if Sony's PS3 ever does catch up to Microsoft's Xbox 360 in overall unit sales—it's still behind four million worldwide, and more than twice that in the U.S. alone—it won't matter, because by that point, it'll be PS4 time. Bringing the Vita in at a more impulse-buy-friendly price point sounds like the smart move.

Then again, the company can't hemorrhage cash indefinitely. If Sony's already losing money on the Vita at $250 and $300, dropping the system to 3DS price levels would only add insult to years of injury from mass PS3 "cost of manufacturing" bleedout. That's to say nothing of all the money the company lost because of the February Japanese earthquake (and tsunami), and the April-May PlayStation Network outage.

Were I Sony, given what the company's giving up in lost holiday sales and competitive time, I'd consider at least a small price break. There's no need to bring the system down to 3DS price levels. With or without inbuilt 3D, the Vita's clearly a more powerful system than the 3DS, and it has its own unique input angle with its touch-sensitive back plate, allowing for games technically impossible on Nintendo's (or currently any other) handheld.

But to launch the system at new console price levels, given Nintendo's holiday court advantage and what's happening in the mobile games space with mass-anticipated devices like Apple's next-gen iPhone threatening, may be asking for a repeat of November 2006, when even Sony enthusiasts took a look at the PS3's sale sticker and said "We'll wait for the price drop."

Samsung Galaxy S II Hitting The US Next Month

Now here's some good news to you, our droid-loving American friends. The Samsung Galaxy S II monster of a smartphone will be landing on your shores next month. The confirmation comes from the president of the Samsung mobile division Shin Jong-Kyun, so you should be able to count on that.
The exact quote was "We expect to release the Galaxy S2 in the U.S. market sometime in August." This means that it might not even take to the end of the month as some earlier rumors suggested.
Of course, Shin Jong-Kyun didn't give any details of potential carrier versions or pricing, but those should be announced soon enough. The last thing we heard was that the AT&T version will have a redesigned exterior and that maybe the US carrier versions won't have their own names this time.

Galaxy S II Expected To Land

 Ever since it first peeked its sizable Super AMOLED face out from behind the curtain, anticipation for the Galaxy S II has been tough to tamp down. As the months have worn on though, Americans have simply been left wondering when (if ever) they’d be able to start leaving fingerprints all over one of their own. Well, we finally have an answer… kinda. President of Samsung’s mobile division, Shin Jong-kyun, told reporters on Wednesday, “we expect to release the Galaxy S II in the US market sometime in August.” So there you go — on some undetermined date, for some undetermined price, with some undetermined carrier, you’ll finally be able to get your greasy little paws on a Galaxy S II next month. It’s not much, but hey, it’s better than nothing.
