Jenn, owner of Pocketables.net has published a nice detailed review about the Kohjinsha SC3. By her review, she seems to be very impressed!

“The Kohjinsha SC3 has come such a long way from the original SA1 series from 2006 that it’s hard to believe they’re actually related. Everything the SA1 did wrong, the SC3 does right . . . and then some! It looks fantastic, is more compact than any other 7-inch UMPC around, has an excellent keyboard and a good selection of ports/features, and performs well under Vista. Battery life is a bit lacking and the unit gets very warm after a bit of use, but all things considered, there is very little to complain about.”

Guys at Laptopmag have got hold of a pre-production unit of Voodoo Envy.

Pulling the 3.4-pound, black glossy ultraportable from its protective sheath doesn’t feel like you are unpacking a normal laptop. And the first sight of the Voodoo fiery red logo feels almost like you have been initiated into a club.

I too like the 5-second OS feature of the Voodoo Envy which is basically a linux based IOS. But, the price is just ridiculous for a notebook. I know, I know this is not a normal notebook. But, still it is a notebook at the end of the day

Rumor has it that HTC is going to release a special edition of the thier Touch Diamond, HTC P3702. The HTC P3720 sports 128MB of RAM rather than 192MB.

I’m little doubtful about it’s performance with 128MB of RAM. You guys will think that this is plenty but it is not as the Graphic accerlerator inside it alone chews 64MB of RAM. That leaves you just with 64MB of RAM to run your applications. Continue reading “Special Touch Diamond without Prism back”

OK, standing on 3 wheels and being eco-friendly is enough to make itself distinct from the rest of the crowd. Peugeot calls it as a cross between the two wheeler and four wheeler.

It runs on an electric motor. No carbon monoxide! Talk about being clean. Coming clean
