Miracle clock or a computer on your wrist

It is likely that you will not just read or even heard of the wrist mini PDAs that can be a good partner for Pocket PC from the company's Fossil. The manufacturer even before the release of their peculiar hours of the start of their advertising campaign. The set of reviews of those who managed to get this product for testing began by saying that perhaps these watch big. In other words, the original, but more controversial ... and we will try to find out what is in itself a device.

It's my size!

To begin with about the same size. If we compare the Fossil Wrist PDA with the average sports watch, you will notice that the first still more, however, is not much. In addition, reviews, PDA watch is quite light. In the digital equivalent clock parameters can be expressed as follows: 44mm long, 50mm wide, 15mm thick, and weighs 75 grams. May not be too elegant for the ladies, but just right for someone who wants to show off a miracle technology. For many, this device may be a good substitute for a PDA in campaigns, on weekends and in the field for continued access to the diary, address book and other functions of the usual PDAs.

What do we have?

In a round plastic containers Fossil, according to the manufacturer, put everything necessary for modern man. Includes self Wrist PDA-PC, a cradle for synchronization, CD with software applications, instructions for use, and 8 3V lithium batteries. Stand allows you to place for information exchange and Pocket PC clock in close proximity to each other. Fossil feeds two batteries, which should suffice for 1,5 - 3 months depending on use. When the batteries sit down, all information is stored in flash memory. Wrist PDA-PC runs on an 8-bit processor, and Epson has a 48Kb ROM and 190Kb RAM. Contacts section allows you to store two phone numbers, two fax numbers, two other contact numbers, email and notes for each contact. Diary supports the days, weeks, months of review and notification of meetings of the signal. However, memory is limited to 40Kb Diary, in addition, if you take all the memory, the download will take considerable time. Recommendation of the manufacturer is only 5Kb. In the cold, this is quite be enough. According to reviews, missing. With the help of Conduits Peacemaker Fossil Edition software, you can choose how far into the past and the future of watches will be synchronized with Pocket PC.

Conduits Peacemaker Fossil Edition

After installing the software on a Pocket PC and run it, a window will appear initialization. Synchronization, depending on the amount of information, will take between a minute or more. In addition, it may take a few minutes itself processing the information that the user wants to send to the Wrist PDA-PC. After initializing the main window pops up. Here you can see the total amount of information for the intended timing and amount of free space on your device and make the appropriate adjustments by pressing Edit. You can sync Diary, contacts, notes and tasks on the user's choice.If desired, you can create a folder Fossil and places the files to sync. In addition, on the main screen displays the estimated time synchronization and the state at some point in the bottom of the screen. Menu Tools (Tools) provides access to set the clock (Watch Setup). In plants, you can choose one of four options for the appearance of the screen. After the selection, just click Beam Watch Face and arrange a pocket computer and watch at close distance from each other.

That there show your watch?

After synchronizing Pocket PC and watch Fossil, handheld computer can be left at home and enjoy the Wrist PDA-PC for basic information. The device 7 basic options: Today (Today), Calendar (Diary), Contacts (Contact), Tasks (Tasks), Notes (Notes), Beam (Sync), Time / Date (Time / Date). Used to control the cross-shaped joystick and two large buttons on either side of him. With their help select and start the application. Long press the left button activates the backlight.

Task List

Screen Size hours - 1.3 inches, and resolution 102h64 point. Most right-hand button is used to going back and access the menu.

And finally ...

With all of the above manufacturers somehow forgot about the clock function per se. They practically do not exist: Missing and alarm clock, and stopwatch, and other basic functions. espite this, one can safely say that the Fossil Wrist PDA-PC - stylish device for gadget lovers and outdoor activities that can successfully replace the Pocket PC in the field. So, for $ 145 you can now buy a new device for mobile professionals. Sources, Materials:

Before the decisive assault

The world-renowned climber Valery Babanov gave an exclusive interview with special correspondent HPCru Andrei Kuznetsov in the Himalayas. As you know, Valerie is now preparing for a decisive assault on an impregnable wall of Meru Central, or as it is often called "shark fins". Interview, which we received yesterday, was transferred via satellite using a satellite phone Nera Worldphone and Pocket PC Cassiopeia E-125. HPCru: Valery as mood and health before the storm? Valery Babanov: The mood is good, feel even better. True, sorry I did not have time to finish reading a book. HPCru: Is there any sign, which may affect the success of the ascent, and which do you trust? VB: Will none. Importantly - the weather. When I went on a new route to the Grand Zharas, I fell into a crevasse, missed eight (rope). Then the avalanche ... These are the signs were, and climb it came out very classy. HPCru: What do you think should be done before you step up the route, or, as you say, tear: check your rope and insurance, to pray, or something else? VB: Pray it never hurts. Come and check out all too:) HPCru: How far will need to go to the top of the separation point? VB: According to preliminary calculations - about 600-700 meters of ice, and then more work on the ridge. HPCru: Why did you give up your first route, and chose the spring path of the Americans? VB: Yes, this route has been declared in the spring of Takeda and Sheldon, but really they were not on it. First they tried to pass through my spring, but then was taken to traverse the claimed route. Due to bad weather and higher they go, and went down. The maximum point reached by the Americans - 5900-5950 m. It must be said that the mountain has changed dramatically since the spring. The lower part of the old route became very kamneopasnoy. So, in my opinion, today the route of ascent on the right buttress seems more appropriate. HPCru: And can it be like to change something on the spot on the wall, if you fail the weather? VB: The route chosen, and in my opinion, it is very logical. And half of the route I have already passed. True, there might be a correction of ice - everything will depend on the snow cornices on the ridge. HPCru: How long can you stay on the platform under the weather? VB: Even though you like, until you run out of food, gas, and, most importantly, the mood. HPCru: How many days do you plan to spend on the ascent of the route? VB: The lower part of the required 5-day work. The upper part in good weather expected for 3 to 4 days. But it is only on estimates, on the spot to be seen. In general, hard to tell because the top had no one there. HPCru: Will you, being on the wall to be interested in letters from home or simply do not have time? VB: Of course I will! For me very important support from home. Between me and Igor will be a constant radio contact, and every day he would send and retrieve mail. HPCru: How will the descent? VB: Two days. HPCru: What do you feel, hanging over a precipice, while paving the route? VB: This is a complex conglomerate of feelings. This includes everything: the terror and ecstasy of freedom, and the feeling that you're the first ... Well, a lot more then. HPCru: A approaching the top of the sensations change? VB: Yes, of course. Gradually begin to understand that victory is somewhere nearby. It must be very careful at such moments it is hard to turn back - you rveshsya to the top. But the feeling of closeness, of course, gives strength. HPCru: Valery, and you are worried, who took on the trip? VB: There is a little bit. Each route, the more new and complex - a step into the unknown. HPCru: How would you rate your chances of success? VB: I do not want to talk about it. HPCru: Where do you usually draws its strength, if you feel that they are exhausted? How to cheer up a situation of extreme fatigue? VB: From the inside, where else, and from his two decades of experience. In the end, each man has a thirst for life. I was always someone waiting, someone peerezhivaet.It's like Saint-Exupery in the story "Terre des Hommes, about that pilot who crashed a plane high in the Andes. He could have died, but he vsegla remembered that he was waiting at the bottom that he someone roads, and this was its main driving force for which he was still alive. HPCru: Did you have this situation yesterday or today, for example? VB: It was not. Yesterday we were playing whist, and now raised in the high-altitude base camp. And then, of course, and another is not easy, but with risk to life is not related exactly:)) HPCru: How is the ascent of Meru? You can give yourself an assessment? VB: I think it is good. HPCru: How many hours you work on the wall? VB: When I work, I work 10-11 hours. It all depends on the situation. When will be a decisive assault, I can work through all 24 hours. Working day I have irregular :-). HPCru: Valery, you have so many competitors. How do you feel about that? This is your "spur" or annoying? VB: It's not that and not another. They are all very nice people, especially the four Japanese, with whom we live side by side and as good friends. HPCru: You said that you can usually anticipate, guess what will happen in the mountains. Your intuition is now "working"? And what did she tell you? VB: So far nothing has been said. To activate the intuition needed a complicated situation, but we will try to avoid it:) The interview was given on September 13 at 20.50 local time in a tent Valery Babanov and Igor Zdanovich, located in high-altitude base camp.

My friend from Asus A600

A new friend is better than the old two?

Actually, of course, still the question of who is better ... But the new Pocket PC MyPal A600 (the title translates as "my friend"), released by Taiwan's ASUS, really good. Briefly it can be described as - "a little like Palm, powerful as the Pocket PC". Although, why - how? This is the Pocket PC ... There are no revolutionary innovations in the MyPal you will not find. This is the usual Pocket PC of the last generation, equipped with powerful 400-MHz processor PXA250 (same Intel Xscale). Just made this computer, as all that goes under the brand ASUS, at a decent level. True, there are in this nice machine an attractive and very distinctive feature. It's about an extremely long battery life on your computer. Energy lithium battery lasts as much as 15 hours. A record result, given the small size of the computer itself. How did they build into the pocket little girl a long-lived battery? Although it's probably not so much in the battery, but in well-implemented power saving features ... MyPal A600 (except time work) nothing special stand. The standard PDA-class memory - 32 MB of permanent (flash) and 64 megabytes of. Full-color (65536 colors) reflective display with switchable backlight. All the necessary multimedia stuffing (integrated audio, headphone, microphone). Memory card slot, the ability to connect additional devices (using a standard technique which has become worn "jackets"). But all together turned out just great. Let's take a closer look at the machine - from the perspective of an ordinary user, not a specialist. This can be useful, since ASUS company is not only accurate but also very persistent. It is unlikely to be limited to Asian and European markets, which means that soon we will see MyPal on the shelves of our stores, touch, taste, and quite possibly, to buy for personal use.

A kind word to someone old

I have not noticed that any product manufactured by ASUS has decent quality, and therefore stands out motley variety of competing offerings. I can only confirm this observation, as a longtime user of computer components from ASUS. Many years (for rapid computer standards, of course) on my PC, now owned by his son, the motherboard is ASUS P3B-F. Obsolescent, it still copes with its responsibilities, and never for more than three years has not delivered any problems. This spontaneous and not sanctioned by anyone (not to be considered the author's worse than it actually is) dithyramb - a tribute to one of the most respected Asian manufacturers dobivshemusya impressive quality of the computer named "glands." Incidentally, the reason for my conservative (as you can hold on to the old as a pterodactyl egg, a technique?) That I can not pick up their "big" car worthy replacement. Components of the cheaper ASUS can not call and waste your time on the devices of dubious origin is not desirable. (The real reason lies in my innate skuperdyaystve and that I have long been over to the laptops). Why these intimate confessions? In addition, the new Pocket PC will certainly cause the trust of many users, who ate more than one peck of salt with an unnamed production machines, and then appreciate the products of recognized brands. Personally, I am in no way have no doubt as computers from Hewlett-Packard and Casio. But if I had a choice at the time (still is - not the last day we live!), I would very much thought of whether to take my machine from ASUS ... In the meantime, with the curiosity to view images MyPal A600 and re releases. And while I think that the new machines from Toshiba appeared very serious competitor. Especially the ASUS in the field of handheld computers is no longer a rookie.

Raisin in Taiwan

What can be seen in the photographs, and what you can deduct in the specification suggests that the machine should turn out successful. The convenience of the location of the control buttons keep silent because they are comfortable in any case where they do not Pristrom (the user is able to get used to anything if it's not quite so outrageous trash). But on the body machine can talk to. The fact that the body MyPal made of aluminum. The fashion for light alloys as the structural CCP is not opening ASUS. In aluminum were collected computers Palm Vxx, Sony Series T, popular iPaq. And this is not always turned out good, although at first glance metal housing must be durable plastic. Polished or matted in a special way aluminum is protected against oxidation with varnish. According to the experience of using machines Sony (alas, not me, but a close acquaintance) I know that in normal operation, when the computer hangs in the pocket with keys and other "stitching" items, aluminum body rapidly loses its marketability. That is covered with scratches and dents. That's not all. Where constant contact fingers polishes plastic to an unpleasant gloss, protective coating aluminum body darkens, and then descends. As of this scourge or protect themselves, and it completely unavoidable. On the other hand, the surface of the shell structure MyPal looks like the surface of lighters Zippo. You know, those old, broken time, cigarette lighters, which forty years of age, and anything they do not do it. Among these new instances, too, come across, if you choose not courtly splendor and stark cowboy sermyagu ... Anyway, see what happens in reality. The outer casing MyPal very attractive. Especially a couple of LED indicators, dashing to go off the left side, and holes in the navigation button, reveal a systematic speaker.

Good friend should be more

It in fact must be more so if it's a true friend. Not in terms of physical size, so at least with respect to the brain ... The MyPal A600 built-in slot for flash memory cards and various devices extension format MultiMedia card and Secure Digital. So, it was stated during his first presentation of cars in March 2002 at an exhibition in Hanover. That is a normal slot, SD / MMC, which with a light hand Palm became the accepted industry standard. Dimensions cards SD / MMC slot to allow you to squeeze the most compact body, not sacrificing anything except, perhaps, the user's wallet. Yet tiddly Secure Digital cards are significantly more expensive than popular CompactFlash. The computer press is possible to find a reference to a promise to release the ASUS MyPal "jacket" with a slot CF. Such an extension would take advantage of peripherals, which are in the form factor CF produced more (at least for now) than in the miniature buildings SD.

A healthy, deep sleep

However, the main feature of the new PDA - energy system. Indeed, 15 hours of standard battery does not work, no family of handheld Pocket PC. Can do it only keyboard Jornada 720, and then only with a substantial addition in the form of an optional external battery ... For many years the acknowledged leader in energy-saving technologies for laptops was the company Apple. Today portable Macs that are weak and slow does not call one of the "LPs" notebooks on the market. Technologies that were used in the PowerBook `iBook` ah and ah, it's special hardware and software mechanisms to monitor the load on the computer systems and their inaction instantly lower supply voltage, thus reducing the overall power consumption laptop.Example - stop the hard drive with no recourse to him for some time in plants. Apple did not achieve passed notebook manufacturers a family of Wintel. Today, all laptops in varying degrees are supplied with systems of energy saving, but not all allow you to extend battery life the way it works a little Macs. In the field of handheld computers the problem of limited battery capacity is greatest. In a small enclosure PDA is physically impossible to build enough capacity battery ... capacious enough - for what? In the first place to ensure effective illumination color screen, without which the PDA can be used only in daylight. The second energy consumer battery - the CPU. Consequently, the scheme of energy must somehow manage energy lamp backlight (lamp itself must also be extremely cost-effective) and lower power CPU during idle times. How does the proprietary technology ASUS Smart Power Saving, remains a mystery. But if we are not talking about hungry every minute "fainting" PDA and computer is able to function at maximum energy efficiency, the engineers and in fact succeeded in convincing results ... Unfortunately, the manufacturer's battery life of handheld computer is rarely the case. That means, for example, the formula - "a normal work week? Normal for whom? For a normal user, which includes a machine for fifteen seconds a day? What he then normal, this poor user? Very often, this "rule" is reduced to what a computer is recommended to use no more than an hour a day at minimum brightness backlight. In such circumstances, the standard Pocket PC can work without recharging, and two weeks, and the most defective in this respect, Casio BE-300 seems to be simply long-lived. In practice, the BE-300 does not pull and 4 hours of continuous battery life, and other Pocket PC work a little more ... What can I say? We'll see. ASUS never seems to be not deceived by their users. If notified 15 hours, then, must be exactly 15 ... Or at least 14 and a half.

Cold shower for a hot head

Massive sales MyPal A600 should start coming in the fall. Around late September - early October, the clipper can be expected in Europe. Around the same time, I think, she gets up to us. Another question - whether to last out till it we? The expected cost of new items - about $ 700. Obtained wow sweet ... Yet even this computer, and handsome, but no extraordinary "bloat" deprived. He hath no built-in Bluetooth, no camera, no pull-out keyboard. What is there still ohmuryayut unsuspecting buyers, developers handheld machines? However, such equipment as computers Pocket PC, cheap in any case does not happen. But now the potential user of the Pocket PC there are additional options. Someone will catch the fancy new Toshiba e310, someone will be faithful iPaq `y, someone will not stay to see MyPal. Let them be as much as possible. And let them be as diverse as possible.

The story of one of the expedition

We bring to your attention a photo report about the trip special correspondent Andrey Kuznetsov HPCru the Indian Himalayas. Most recently, he visited at the foot of the peak of Meru, shestitysyachnika, famous for its inaccessibility, and witnessed the initial phase of ascent on this mountain climber Russian Valery Babanov. Andrew has provided technical support to the expedition Valery, its relationship with the mainland, and held at an altitude of 5000 meters Test Kit mobile communications: the satellite phone of Inmarsat in conjunction with handheld computers Cassiopeia E-125 and Palm IIIxe.

Courageous middling from the country of the Rising Sun or Sony PEG-SJ30 at first glance. Part One

It seems that Sony has decided to return to the production of handheld entry level and middle class. Proof of this can serve as a release of Sony PEG-SJ30 - the first color model, Medium price category. Its price in America - about $ 300. Exact figures are manufacturer has not yet announced. Given the fact that, until now, Sony engaged exclusively release high-end PDAs NR-series, T series, and quite unpretentious model series S, the publication of the SJ30 and SJ20 and his fellow SL10 is coboy birth of a new line of devices the middle class. We bring to your attention a mini-review of new items, the first part of which was published on the site PalmInfocenter. Its author has not tested the device, but it makes the conclusions of those materials that are in his possession.

Face

In this regard, the SJ30 was a success: Sony decided not to save and equipped handheld display, not inferior in quality screen, hi-end handhelds T615C: high, as with all Sony, resolution - 320x320 pixels, no glare, unlike the younger series handhelds S. Colors are displayed accurately, without erosion, and distortion. However, without the disadvantages of not happened. White color gives a little blue, and the lower edge of the matrix is ​​somewhat obscured. Feedback from early users, the best PDA with work in the room, but you can if you are already very much want to use it on the street, even in direct sunlight.

Statuette

I must say that the SJ30 is not the most graceful of the family palmovyh. Its dimensions - 10.41 x7, 37h1, 78 cm at almost 150 grams - enough for a hefty brick of his shirt pocket. However, this is shorter than most color handheld PDAs from Sony. Beginner maintained in the corporate style: plastic housing in white and silvery tones that disguise is complete. All models of the new series of middle-class S (SL10, SJ20 and SJ30) have the same dimensions.

Memory Stick

One of the distinguishing features of the products Sony - proprietary slot standard, Memory Stick, whose presence allows you to expand memory capacity PDAs, as well as its capabilities (eg, add Communication Technology with a desktop PC or mobile via Bluetooth using the Bluetooth Memory Stick). The company plans to issue cards Memory Stick capacity to 5 GB while also offering users a more modest 128 MB MS. In SJ30 slot "works more slowly than similar models have a higher class. This means that downloading files and applications from the Memory Stick card will take some time.

Accessories

Due to the fact that the new model is equipped with the same HotSync connector that and a series of T, this PDA can be used accessories, designed for older models. Given the fact that it is this has become a universal connector for the entire range of products Sony, selection of accessories is rich enough.

SJ 30 against T615S?

Since the SJ30 will debut with a starting price, which is identical to the true value of the CPC T615S, these models can not avoid comparisons. No new items have improved microphone and IR port, which is equipped with T615S. In principle, the list goes on, but you must immediately specify that we are comparing fundamentally different device classes.SJ30 in any case is not an extension of hi-end line of T, the price at which the model was reduced gradually and reached to this point, the average level. SJ30, in turn, is positioned as a mid-range PDA, and therefore more appropriate to compare it with models of the same weight category, where the handheld was virtually nothing inferior to its competitors.

Shark's fin and Pocket TV

We bring to your attention a report from the set of TV show "The World-220" of the "Capital". October 10 "metropolitan" film crew was interviewing the famous Russian climber Valery Babanov, recently carried out a sensational solo ascent to the peak of Meru Central "Shark Fin" (The Indian Himalayas), as well as the head of the Division of mobile development company MakTsentr Andrey Kuznetsov, who helped the climber to "communicate" with the equipment and carried out parallel tests in extreme conditions, yet few models of PDAs and other equipment.In one of the November TV program "The World-220" You can totally watch this interview!
