    Revealed: Toshiba’s First 21.5 Inch HD All-In-1 PC

    Running on Intel Core i5/i7 processor, this all powerful device also has HD screen and six USBs to boot.

    The first time Toshiba has ever dipped its toes into the all-in-one world, it has released the DX1210 PC, the “central hub” for all devices, used as a base for managing notebooks, tablets or mobiles.

    Powered optionally by either the Intel Core i7 or i5 processors, the 21.5 inch full LCD HD display (1920X1080 res), with CyberLink PowerCinema pre-installed, means the new DX is “is like being at the movies” with a built in DVD player and TV tuner.

    This smart touch screen device also converts standard definition video to HD via Resolution+ technology and doesn’t spare on high end sound, accompanied by Onkyo speakers and Dolby Audio processing.

    Users can also listen to music when the device is asleep and also acts as a charging port for devices like smartphones.

    It also has a whopping six USB ports (two 3.0’s) allowing multiple devices hook up at same time including an HDMI in – as well as a wireless keyboard for easy portability and web cam.

    It also transfers multimedia data 10 times faster than the previous generation models, so is ideal for downloading pics or movies, says Toshiba. 

    Security wise, it contains face recognition technology which allows verified users to log on by just looking at the PC.

    Other “extremely useful features include a touch screen interface so families will no longer have to worry about losing the remote control and a virtual corkboard to stick up post it notes,” says Toshiba’s Product Manager, Anthony Geronimo.

     

    “It’s not uncommon for households to have several technology devices in different rooms, so the DX1210 is a great solution for managing multiple devices through a single hub.”

    All-In-One DX1210 PC is selling at selected retailers for RRP of $1,899 in ‘Precious Black.’

    However if you want it in white you can only buy it from Harvey Norman outlets.
     

     

    Harvey Norman Boss Buys Up As Sales Go Flat

    One of Harvey’s top bosses has bought 7,450 shares in the retailer.


    Click to enlarge

    Harvey’s Chief Financial Officer and Company Secretary, Chris Mentis, now holds 7,450 shares and 1,000,000 options, the ASX said yesterday.

    The total value of this transaction was $19,891.50.

    This comes as the retail giant, which has been beseiged by flat retail period, falling margins and profits, which in February fell 16.5 per cent.

    This less than spectacular perfomance was blamed on price deflation in key categories, driven by
    the strong Australian dollar, a challenging retail environment and
    also the extreme weather.

    However, it is looking to turn this around and looking to take its business online to restore growth prospects, already jumping on the group buying bandwagon with its Harvey’s Best Buy’s, which it kicked off in March last.

    And considering Mentis is the top financial dog, he must know what he’s doing.

    Prices of the retailer’s shares has dipped from a high in September last year of $3.95 to an all time low of $2.63 recorded this month.

    Gagging Orders: Twitter Cant Talk As Giggsy Named

    It’s official: Twitter breaks down as super injunction scandal goes into overdrive.


    Click to enlarge

    Following the naming and shaming of Manchester United footballer Ryan Giggs (pictured) as the man behind the super injunction that has divided Britain, Twitter may be getting more than it bargained for. 

    Punters wishing to log on this morning have been met with this greeting: “Twitter is over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again.”

    Its visitor numbers spiked more than 22 per cent at the weekend according to Experian Hitwise figures as the public flocked to the site to determine the identity of the footballer behind the super injunction against the social network. Giggs’ lawyers served a banning order against Twitter last week.

    This marked the busiest day in history for the site with “Ryan Giggs suing Twitter” the fourth most popular search keywords.

    This traffic was 10 per cent higher than its previous busiest day, May 9th, when a site purporting to name all celebrities currently holding super injunction emerged.

    One SmartAlec, posing as Chelsea footballer, Frank Lampard, wrote on the site: “Ryan Giggs is suing Twitter. I can’t Imogen why.”

    Giggs, whose name had already been published around 75,000 times to date as the identity behind the injunction, was seeking to prevent Twitter from publishing his name any further as the married man who allegedly had an affair with former Big Brother star Imogen Thomas.

    Thomas, who had already been publicly revealed by media, was not covered by the super injunction.

     

    However, the revelations could bite Twitter where it hurts as UK politicians are to review the regulations surrounding social media, pledging a “balance between privacy and freedom of expression” as celebrities seek to protect their privacy despite the advent of free speech and uncensored sites like Facebook and Twitter.

    Considering social media is still a new  phenomena It could also work in its favour and prevent celebs like Giggs seeking to muzzle it in the future.

    The sex scandal also sent fury thorough British media, who were prevented from uncovering the scandal, following the granting of the super injunction by British courts.

    However, Giggsy’s lawyers need not have wasted their time as British Liberal Democrat MP, John Hemming, publicly named and shamed the footballer yesterday in the House of Commons using parliamentary privilege.

    Samsung Galaxy II $5 On Optus, Release June 1

    Telco offering Samsung’s much awaited smartphone on pre order on $59 cap since Friday.


    Click to enlarge

    The high powered Galaxy update, running on Android Gingerbread 2.3 and weighing in at 116g boasts a 1.2GHz dual-core processor and Super AMOLED Plus 4.3 inch touchscreen and 8Mp camera.

    The phone will set back Galaxy fans $5 per month on a $59 cap or else for free on $79 plan. It also has two other pricier options on a ‘timeless extreme’ plan.

    The phone is to be released “across all major networks and retailers” in Australia although a Samsung spokesperson failed to disclose the precise date when quizzed by ChannelNews last week.

    However, Optus may have left the cat out the bag and its website indicates the release date is June 1st.

    “Pre-order before 28 May and we will aim to deliver your phone on 1 June 2011, the day Samsung Galaxy S II is released in Australia,” Optus states.

    The $59 plan comes with 2GB Data, “unlimited standard SMS and MMS” unlimited access within Australia to Facebook, Twitter and other social media, within Australia. The package is valued at $700.

     

    Optus is also sweetening the deal by giving a bonus desktop dock for first 200 customers and appears to be the first off the mark with Galaxy II with none of the other carriers offering the device, including Telstra and Vodafone as yet.

    The telco declined to say how pre sales of the device were going, which has been available online since Friday last.

    LinkedIn Gold Rush As Value Soars $8.5B. Is Dot Com 2.0 Here?

    Shares opened on its first day of trading yesterday at $83 – almost double its initial IPO price of $45.


    Click to enlarge

    The market frenzy that ensued following opening of New York Stock Exchange, what the Wall Street Journal has called the “outsize demand” for a company which is now valued at, $85bn, despite making a modest profit of just over US$15 million (on $243 revenue) last year.

     In 2009, it made a loss of $4 million. But what a difference a year makes. By the time the NYSE closed at 4pm, shares were worth an eye watering $94.25 – a 109% lift – which must have made traders gasp into their PC screens as it means the company is now worth a phenomenal $8.9 billion.

    This exceeded all expectations for Reid Hoffman 2002 online start up, which had been tipped to float for around US$3bn-$3.3bn value and initial prices were as low as $32-35 per share.

    “If anybody thinks that the tech investing sector didn’t change today, they’re absolutely crazy,” Lee Simmons, editor of IPO research service Hoover’s told the Silicon Valley Times. “Today is going to be a benchmark of how these stocks enter the market in the future.”

    However, another respected industry figure muttered the messianic share rise “is like a movie I’ve seen before,” referring to the previous dot com bubbles that crash landed.

     The Silicon Valley giant plans to sell 7.8m shares in total, although its chief isn’t getting too excited, attributing the rise to the vagaries of the market, rather than the kick off of dot com 2.0, which many analysts fear.

     

    “This isn’t necessarily indicative of anything. The market will do what it will do,” said Jeff Weiner, LinkedIn CEO.

    Many in Wall Street also believe the professional social network has benefitted from being the first of the online startups to hit the trading floor and had say Facebook gone first it would be a very different story.

    It is the biggest market debut for a tech company since Google floated back in 2004 for $85 a share which then hit $100 soon after.

    One of the oldest social networkers around, the company founded in 2002, has morphed into the biggest social network/ head hunting service for employers and recently began charging for some of its services with 100 million registered users.

    It has also open the floodgates for its counterparts including the darling of social networks, Facebook, which has a currently value of $79 billion on private exchange SharesPost, and seven time the user numbers with 700 million and counting, to follow suit. 

    Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg will sleep soundly tonight.

    Others like Twitter and even Groupon (which Google bid $6bn last year) may also go public and this enthusiastic response from Wall Street is giving them a strong indication of what’s to come. 

     

    So who were the big winners? Reid Hoffman who still retains over one fifth of the company (20.1 per cent) as wel as current CEO and employees as well as several venture capital outfit. 

    IPTV Coalition: FetchTV To Nab Top Telstra Rivals, TPG Next

    FetchTV is cosying up to some of Telstra’s top rivals in a bid to challenge T Box.


    Click to enlarge

    Just last week IPTV provider FetchTV announced a deal with its biggest rival, Optus, set to kick off on screens later this year.

    However, now it seems it is looking to pen deals with every one of its top ten rivals including the likes of TPG, to build a “coalition” against its biggest rival Telstra, CEO Scott Lorson revealed this week.

    And it is also in talks with at least two or three other internet providers to help build a team of IPTV rivals against Telstra’s T Box TV and movies on demand service which have 120,000 customer base between its box and Big Pond movie service.

    Big Pond services are also available on a stream of new Smart TVs including Samsung and LG sets which could prove a major boost to its user numbers.

    However, its latest sign on is FetchTVs biggest feat yet.

    “I think the fact that we’ve been able to nab the number two, number three and number five providers in the country bodes very well for the rest of the others,” said Lorson.

    Some of the smaller ISPs including Internode, and iiNet were two of the first to hook up with Fetch services last year. Adam Internet is currently trialling the service.

     

    The new Optus service “is part of [its] broader TV strategy to develop a suite of converged video services.. at home or on the move,” it said, and should give the IPTV provider some major consumer muscle, analysts believe.

    “This time we have to get it right” Optus CEO Paul Sullivan admitted last month. Undoubtedly, the No.2 telco could prove a major IPTV service and offer competitive pricing.

    FetchTV service, which usually costs under $30 a month with a set top box, offers world channels, pay and free digital TV as well as movies, games, and Facebook applications.

    Internode already has two variation of the service Fetch Lite and Full and is said to have over two thousand subscribers.

    Reports: Apple Slim SIM For iPhone 6?

    Apple MicroSIM is to become MicroSLIM, according to reports.
    The tech giant’s SIM cards are to shed some pounds in a bid to shape up – possibly for iPhone 6 which is tipped to be out mid next year.

    Well, the slim down is mainly to help Steve Jobs’ engineers build smaller and thinner devices. The revamped SIMs could be available as early as next year.

    Apple SIMs got their first major overhaul last year with installation of the MicroSIM for the iPad but now it seems it is set for a further cut down.

    MicroSIM for iPad is essentially the memory chip but without the added plastic, and measures up to a minuscule 12 x 15mm.

    “We were quite happy to see last week that Apple has submitted a new requirement to (European telecoms standards body) ETSI for a smaller SIM form factor — smaller than the one that goes in iPhone 4 and iPad,” Anne Bouverot, Orange’s head of mobile services told Reuters.

    “They have done that through the standardisation route, through ETSI, with the sponsorship of some major mobile operators, Orange being one of them.”

    However, what is also interesting about this development if it comes to pass is that Apple SIMs will be non transferrable to other devices and will be pulling away from the industry standard, unless others follow suit.

    It also means iPhone users with 4 or older models looking to upgrade will have to purchase new SIM cards.

     

    This also means phone unlockers’, who have made an industry out of unlocking iPhones, number could be up.
