Paul at Modaco has made a custom ROM in which he has integrated IE mobile 6. Though Microsoft said that the IE mobile 6 won’t be available as separate download for the current devices, ROM cookers have found ways of streamlining it inside the ROM itself.
And since this is a ROM upgrade, it will wipe out all of your current data. So, make sure that you do a backup before doing the upgrade.

Toshiba becomes the first country to introduce the first Industry’s 512GB solid state drive. This NAND based flash storage is a standard 2.5″ drive based on 43nm MLC. It supports excellent read speeds of 240MBps and write speeds of 200MBps! The drives comes with AES encryption, which improves data protection. Toshiba also plans to introduce 64GB, 128GB and 256GB SSD versions.
Wow! Time is changing at a speedy rate. Who knew that we would see the news of 512GB SSD so soon considering the fact I’m still running 4GB SSD in my 8month old EEE 701.

Until now we knew that the Dell’s Inspiron Mini 12 came only with Windows Vista Basic. This was not a nice thing to do on Dell’s part as not everyone is a fan of Windows Vista Netbook. Looks like Dell has listen to the people’s wants and has now made available the Mini 12 in both Windows XP and Ubuntu 8.04.1.
As for pricing, the Ubuntu-based model is available at $499 while the Windows XP is priced at $549.
This is a great news as I’m not myself a big fan of running Vista on such a weak 12″ netbook especially the Vista Basic which does not have the Aero Engine. Windows XP is a great performer on the netbooks. Wise move Dell!
