VITO Technology follows the trend that wants to launch in recent months of programs for Windows Mobile can make the best use of the touchscreen interface to propose something closer to the concept of touch interface introduced by the famous iPhone. And the dream of many hidden now useless to hide it, but the dream can become reality with its new Windows Mobile Communication Suite.

This is not a real program, but a complete package that revolutionizes the interactive system of its handheld Windows Mobile (both in version 5 that 6): with the equivalent of 39.95 U.S. dollars can be used as four applications:

* Goodwin: launcher and task manager
* FunContact: heading the only manageable with fingers
* SMS-Chat: client to manage the message
* ZoomBoard: virtual keyboard with zoom button pressed

Together with the new Spb Mobile Shell 2.0 to the complete and radical alternative to a different from that many are not native, does not stay and try to select the most suits your needs.

According to reports Mobinaute range HTC sees major news during 2008. In addition to the new terminal, code-named Diamond should make the emergence of a new set of devices MID (mobile Internet device).

The first thought seems to collect the legacy of Touch, presenting itself with major upgrades, such as the adoption of HSPDA connectivity and an integrated GPS receiver. Even the interface based on touch of the fingers, characteristic of the series Touch, should experiment with some changes.

It seems that for HTC MID will rely on new Intel platforms, breaking the series based on ARM processors. Suppose that the HTC devices will be developed on the recently announced Centrino Atom platform.

The new series will seek to htc clear from the relatively low success of its UMPC solutions such as Advantage and especially the shift. The latter, also because of the serious delay of arrival on the market after the first optimistic announce, has not received a positive reaction the public. We follow with interest the developments in the line-up HTC.

Starting from next week should be possible to begin to find on the market Intel Core 2 Quad at 45 nanometers and precisely models Q9300, Q9450 and Q9550. Intel is in fact starting the production volume of these processors, which will be based on core Yorkfield versions stepping C1.

Intel has had to resolve a problem with earlier versions of Yorkfield that have delayed the launch of the products on the market. The whole production volumes will be based only on the new core stepping in to prevent the marketing of potentially unstable processors.

Models Core 2 Quad Q9550 and Q9450 will be characterized respectively by operating frequencies of 2.83 GHz and 2.66 GHz, and both will have a well-12MB of cache second level. The model Core 2 Quad Q9300 will have an operating frequency of 2.5 GHz and 6MB of L2 cache. All three processors support the frequency of 1333MHz FSB and feature a TDP of 95W. The official list price is $ 530, $ 316 and $ 266 respectively for Q9550, Q9450 and Q9300.

intel is now working to solve the problems of availability of the CPU at 45 nanometers. Currently, the giant Santa Clara produces one hundred thousand processors to 45nm per day, but this number is expected to grow from the end of the first quarter production will be a 45-nanometer processors, while in the second half of the third quarter Intel will produce solutions to 45nm and 65nm in equal measure.
