Remember how they sing Alica and Bananan at the eighteenth minute, "Assa" song BG "I'm going to do you? "What's your number?" - With the inimitable kiberintonatsiey asks Bugaev, nicknamed "Africa", and the most - for my taste - a touching Russian actress of the last century Tatiana Drubich answers too cybernetically-neutral and cybernetic-instantly: "Six." "What is your sex?" - "Woman" ... I believe that no BG or Solovyov, who shot "Assou, personal or bad, no assessment at all this kibernetichnostyu not want to say - just showed a rave style. In those days, of course, charming. Equally, as the most - also for my liking - a charming (and quite successful), the representative of the Russian hi-tech-business, David Yang, thinking Cybiko, too, probably, is not primarily about computers (cyber) component was thinking - but a coterie and style.

Therefore, without taking in mind all those tedious arguments about the brain drain, simply set up in Moscow, Spartakovskaya area firm for two hundred people, who must develop software and devices (after the first serving today, the version already comes second, but the features and cut out of foam and a third, and it seems that the fourth), he with two colleagues went to the States, there founded the firm, scored two dozen American managers, and an order for the glands consistent manner posted on Taiwan. And Cybiko go! Maybe still not as fast as wanted David, but, first, Down and Out problem - a beginning, and second, not so rich in the firm of David to buy virtually all the central American newspapers - and their pages with articles about the Cybiko is covered entirely not a small area of the wall in the office on Spartakovskaya, and AOL, no matter how rich the monster was, in the empty case will invest the money is unlikely.

Tak.Omolazhivaem hero "Africa for five years, the heroine Drubich - ten, hand over to them by Cybiko and run the disco. (Optional: at the disco, at the entrance, instead of number plates - each awarded by Cybiko [Maxim Otstavnova idea, expressed in private correspondence].) Scored in every machine data about themselves (their view of themselves, although the hair color or growth is better to give an objective : here you are not Internet-chat, all - on the patch) and (I quote Otstavnova) "10 qualities of the girl of his dreams." The girl (or a few girls) appears, Cybiko squeaks and (or) to vibrate, like your soul - and you have your sending her billet doux. It is your responsibility. Or not responding. If started, but - at the end of disco - I had to get out of range of the interaction of two Cybiko (hundred or so meters) - go to it at its Cybiko (with a unique number that turn with the help of dogs and cybiko.com supplements to the standard e-mail-address) mail from his, perhaps she'll answer ... - What's your number?
- Six.
- What is your gender?
- Women's ... Girls - this is fine and at some point in life for many - the main thing. However, and parties among themselves. That is, there - love, and here - friendship. I was fortunate enough last spring (they had a fall, but some gold!) To visit New Zealand. And there I was visiting his old Moscow (now - New Zealand's) girlfriend. Jr., her son, Stepan (I remember him back in two weeks of age, and now it's charming thirteen Porthos) asked me about a private conversation (so my mother could not hear). Having laid his mother to bed, we sat down in his room on the second floor near his computer. He pulled out a simple cell phone ... - Uncle Jack! Tell my mother that she paid for cell phone and do not make me take him (he took the phone, they say, to try, money back, they have it - easily).I'm here ... and so is not quite your ... And if I will not go in the evenings to share with the guys SMS'ami - generally stay at the side ... I can imagine myself, what kind of SMS'y the contrary, can not imagine what is possible through them, can not be said tomorrow at the school in person or simply by phone, stationary, which, as becomes us, - yet they have become a luxury item. Via e-mail, in the end, they all feature! But ... the rules hangouts. Skip to the company. Becoming his own. Nothing can be done. Explain, of course - do not pay, but I still managed to persuade Stepin mom, and now he's at every opportunity, sends thanks ... Cybiko in this sense, to my taste, the perfect mobile phone. Let's just say: now Cybiko - now mobile. Maybe tomorrow Cybiko be connected to the network GSM (ie, it is not my assumption, but a real plan of David), and cell phones without a mini-computer with one or another keyboard, scheduler, games, phone book and something else, perhaps - Why not? - Dynamic search partner - simply will not exist. But this is only - tomorrow.

And today ... Cybiko - it's awful funny looks, all transparent and differently colored (that is, there are several color options) pocket (on the palm without the overhang, he placed only along and not immediately) odinnadtsatimegagertsovym computer processor (32-bit, 11 MHz Hitachi H8S/2246), polumegabaytom RAM and polumegabaytnym flush with stitched back system and a gentlemanly set of programs (speed and volume - as in the first Palm'ov, then called Pilot'ami) with a monochrome, insensitive to pressure 160h100 screen pixels by 4 graduation, with - also very cool - Super Mini keyboard, the keys which, in principle (especially - if you're too young and petite lady) can be pressed with your fingers, but it is more convenient (and fast becoming accustomed and even comfortable) - Special staylusom with a blunt beveled edge , with a simple sound, a vibrator, like a cell phone (so, if it occurred to chat in the classroom - not to attract the attention of the teacher;

David as a joke [but in every joke there is some jokes] that would have been happy if in the States [or in some states] that the laws prohibiting use of Cybiko in schools - then sales would go up on a logarithmic scale); RS-232 compatible port (cable included) with two NiMH-battery capacity of 700 mAh (and attached as a network adapter for the American Electrostandart: Blade fork, 110; but Spartakovskaya already in full use by domestic, Petersburg, once with two tails), which, depending on the modes, enough to work Cybiko from two to five hours with the expansion slot, from which today actually sold only extra memory, but that's appeared recently an MP3 player (in two versions: simple and with FM-receiver) is also quite funny, tiny, controlled either directly by the buttons, either through a special Cybiko-program;

as a carrier of content, standard card SmartMedia; player advertised with might and main, but not yet officially on sale, that has not stopped one of them - in Russia - to go with molotka.ru, and finally - perhaps in-chief - with not too a powerful radio transmitter (range - about half a kilometer or less - in the room), allowing multiple Cybiko (I've seen more than sixty - at Spartakovskaya) communicate simultaneously with each other and, for example, chat, or - to play special network Cybiko-games (with my son evenings and weekends with pleasure playing Cybiko-radioshahmaty), but if a Cybiko is connected to a networked computer (via a special program called Cyberload), this one becomes a gate, and all around through it connected to the network, which today provides possible only exchange mail address, from the same web to download new applications and games, which, according to the original promise of David, there are new each day, including Saturday and Sunday (I asked Sergei Kaschavtseva that, starting with this issue, will lead, hopefully, permanent SoftTerr 'y Lite, pay a visit to Spartacus, and tell us about the factory let nemudryaschih, but always original, and adequate Cybiko-programs on a daily basis employs 70 programmers), however, for geytovaniya not necessarily sacrifice the whole Cybiko, - already there is a special gate drive, connecting to personalke via USB and looks like a stand with a small antennkoy.

The plans of the team and Cybiko connect to GSM, and do a color screen and touch screen to do, and umoschnyat processor, and to increase memory, and write a lot of different programs for it - for example, I looked at the project edakogo Cybiko-Tamagotchi - significantly , however, more complex, interesting than the ancestor of this animal and, most importantly, the ability to communicate with animals from other Cybiko ... But what of the plans implemented and when, and that - no, they seem to themselves and do not know yet, but if and they know - keep as secret guerrilla. Have the right and even obligation. In the animal world of capitalism ...

In general, aside from the amusing form of toys (and not be distracted from it in any case, both the gold buttons and nakarmannyh coats blazer or leather black leather jackets) - all of its components are quite weak: Palm smaller and more powerful, Walkie-Talkie - podalnoboynee; Internet chat - pouniversalnee, but in terms of games, even cheap cyber-fights (or whatever they do) may well give Cybiko odds ... But all together! Here, in general, the main thing is: will Cybiko mandatory attribute and prestigious American (Australian, British, New Zealand) tineydzherskoy hangouts (if David won in total) or not - and this will depend both on its U.S. managers as well as from thousands of small and impossible to take into account the circumstances in advance. But even in this case, David has already won, though not so much. And so AOL-something not lost exactly: Cybiko puts young people at the game of modern communications! As for my assessment - it is obviously positive, and here's why. My eleven-to-polovinoyletny son Savva different computer games, frankly - quite spoiled: and all his father's computer, the last before his eyes and under his hands since birth, and mother's laptop, falling at his disposal on the first request, and two " Palma, and all there "Cassiopeia" and interpreters "Ectaco", and finally, own, fairly powerful desktop "Pentium" ... Well, as probably many of his American or New Zealand counterparts, maybe even, and some more. And I am very interested and it was important to look: it will bind to the Cybiko, if you get the opportunity, or by playing a week or two, will throw in a drawer next to the Pepsi-we'll get FM-receiver, LL-player PIO and PowerBook'om (the latter was abandoned virtually, that is returned with gratitude in the DPI). Not scored. This is the third month, as worn, goes to visit friends, calling them to him (in high school, however, did not dare to bring, fearing for the safety and integrity), sticks on the Internet, fetched another toy (http://www.cybiko . com /); pumps, removes waste ... In short, living with a Cybiko. That is - missed. Or David - was in Sawa. When David thought up the toy, based on the American market, I was vchuzhe somehow even insulting. When I held it in his hands, and even popolzovavshis - I figured out how David was right! There - a chance. Here - no idea. Those are the most sacramental 99 bucks, which is held in the border Cybiko-price (and therefore a monochrome screen and no touchscreen, and because not enough memory and processor - not the most nimble) - For American parents are not something that is not the money - of course, money ! - But the money gap in the family budget, probably will not pierce. Yes, and the teenager, after all, if you really want to have a Cybiko, - this can make a hundred, and without parental involvement. The whole programmoobmen - through the Internet that we, too, you know ... to put it mildly - not yet ubiquitous.That is, of course, in Moscow (and some rather big cities), some special schools, where the price of one month of training considerably more expensive than the Cybiko, - but taken together, these spetsshkolniki - not the market ... Alas! That is, Cybiko and sold in Moscow - the Internet - as, indeed, mostly in the States - however, the gray image and a half price and two weeks of waiting: www.ottu-da.ru/goods/384.html ( just do not believe everything that is written in terms of characteristics and capabilities) - but the company officially Yana our market Cybiko not display and does not intend: the formal registration of the radio transmission device chooses money and nerves as much as not to fill and three years of trade. And Russify - a more expensive, and not the fact that enough memory. Two additional notes, in the end. First, the Cybiko has a simple but standard with the Basic interpreter, so that we can, taking a toy from his pocket, play writing, debugging and performance is not too clever programs that I think really, really can captivate even if not too large but, qualitatively, a significant sector of young users. Secondly, one of the three floors occupied by Cybiko Laboratories in Business Building on Spartakovskaya, sits in a huge hall twenty full-time testers, and I do not know how many - non-standard (among which, of course, there are also some teenagers). During the hour of testing it (freelance) are paying 50 cents for each found a bug - 100. I earned three hundred case. Cents.
