15 iPhone games in 2008
March 26, 2008
MacNN reports that Gameloft, one of the leading developers of games for Apple’s iPod and iPod Nano lines has declared that they will produce at least 15 games for the iPhone in 2008. Frankly, I wish they’d slow down a bit and produce 1 or 2 quality games, instead of shoving 15 out the door. The iPhone gaming market is already looking kind of crowded. With indy developers already tinkering with the iPhone SDK as well, you can expect a plethora of games to hit the iPhone – the question is…how many of them will be good?
Windows XP on Mobile
March 25, 2008
Nokia’s Communicator style mobile phone/PDA hybrid has long been a popular choice for enterprise users, particularly in Europe. The MIU HDPC will change up that landscape a bit. HDPC, short for Hybrid Dual Portable Computer,packs 7 hours of battery life when booting in from Windows XP or Linux (uncertain at the moment) and some 90 hours on Windows Mobile. That’s pretty intense.
The device also throws in an exterior dial which slides and tilts, similar to a SideKick meets the TyTN II/Tilt. There is a 4 inch 800 X 480 touchscreen inside, a 1 GHz VIA ultra low voltage CPU, and up to 4GB DDR RAM. There is also a 3-5 megapixel camera with flash and exterior screen with dial pad for the phone features.whether it’s GSM with HSDPA for high speed internet access or CDMA with EVDO for broadband speeds.
Windows Vista On Gigabyte M700 UMPC
March 24, 2008
Over at CeBIT in Germany, Gigabyte has just unveiled their new M700 UMPC.
The Gigabyte M700 UMPC gets outfitted with a seven-inch (touchscreen?) display, but it pushes the processing envelope a little further by running a full build of Windows Vista Home Premium. This is achieved through the 1.2GHz Via C7-M processor and 2GB of memory standard. The seven-inch screen has a resolution of 1024×600 pixels.
Weighing it at only 1.43 pounds, this UMPC also comes loaded with dual webcams, GPS, and a WiMAX-capable ExpressCard. There’s no QWERTY keyboard, so you’ll probably have to make do with one of those on-screen virtual numbers. No details surrounding pricing or release dates were announced.
Ms Office 2008 For Mac
March 23, 2008
Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac OS X is prettier than its predecessors. Fortunately, the upgrade is more than skin deep.
While many parts of the suite’s component programs — Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Entourage — appear the same or are identical, new and reorganized features increase the suite’s utility. Notably, Word has graduated from word processing to true page layout on the Mac after decades of meager attempts. Office for Mac was rewritten between its last version in 2004 and release on this January, which was previewed in 2007.
Apple moved from IBM/Freescale PowerPC chips to Intel’s lineup, and Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Word and other large applications couldn’t simply have a switch thrown to perform at their best.
