Uncover the CAR of the Future this October

2009-01-26T17:49:00.000-08:00

Most of the car manufacturers today are developing the next evolution in the automobile technology and keep on innovating an advance automobile which is more environmental friendly or most commonly known as green vehicles.

An automobile company, Aptera Motors developed an all-electric three-wheeled two-seater car with a futuristic design and named it as 2e. This car gets the equivalent of 200 mpg and can run in the driveways as far as 100 miles on a single charge of its lithium-ion battery pack!

According to Aptera, they will start a full production of 2e this coming October and their target is to build an ultra-efficient, high-mileage vehicle without sacrificing comfort and safety. In addition, it may only be a three-seater car but the room is enough to load around 15 bags of groceries, two sets of golf clubs or a surfboard.

The 2e models will only be available in California for now but Aptera is hoping to broaden it sales nationwide so they can work on a new model. The price will range from $25,000 to $45,000 (around Php. 1,175,000 to Php. 2.115.000 ). Well the price is quite expensive, but here are the pictures for you to check out!

World's First OLED TV from SONY

Imagine your TV screen is just a 3 millimeters thin with a screen resolution of 960 x 540 pixels? Whew! It's like having a cardboard-thin TV screen! Sony just recently released the latest in television technology and called it Sony Organic LED XEL-1 TV. The screen is made of organic light emitting diode (OLED), which only emits a bright light when electric current passes through and not spilling some lights from each pixel. So the result of this technology is an astounding color, brightness and image contrast. Yes it is far better than LCD and Plasma TV!

Sony's is using STE (Super Top Emission) Technology which produces an extraordinary and amazing picture quality. As Sony stated, “It produces deep blacks, brilliant whites, and vibrant colors in between. A blazing fast response time provides smooth and natural reproduction of fast-moving images."

Sony Organic LED XEL-1 is only 11-inch-wide, and I think it’s too small to work as your living room TV. But big things come in small packages, that's why Sony make sure that this 11 inches TV comes with BIG and great features. So this TV is just perfect for your office or as your personal bedroom TV. You can slant the screen at any viewing angle you want without compromising picture quality. You can also enjoy browsing your personal photos while listening to your favorite music because of the built-in Memory Stick slot and MP3.

The current price of the product in market is $2,499.99 (almost P122.000). Whew! Right now, Sony Organic LED XEL-1 is not yet available in the country. Hope we can see one in the coming months.

Twilight Fever!

2008-12-05T18:10:00.000-08:00

While browsing some of the blogs earlier I noticed that even in the blogger's world the TWILIGHT fever is IN! I've read alot of personal reviews from bloggers out there and I agreed with all those positive writings about the movie coz I've watched it and to be honest, I love it! (i feel like am a teeny bopper again!) :)

Some says that it's better to read the book than watching it in the big screen because there's alot of scenes in the book that are not in the movie. Well my say is, they cannot compressed the entire book in a 2 hours movie ayt? The phasing of the movie is good, the actors and scenes are great, so bottom line is, TWILIGHT movie is a success!

To all the youngsters and young at hearts out there who haven't watch the movie, don't miss it coz you'll surely enjoy it! :)

melamine scare

2008-10-12T23:09:00.000-07:00

After the big achievement of China hosting the 2008 Olympics, they're back on the news again, but not because of China phones smashed the the apple ipod in the market but because of the melamine scandal. It has been reported that China's milk and dairy products are contaminated with melamine, an industrial chemical made of laminated plastic usually used in making adhesives and glues which cause a big damage in our kidneys like kidney stones and kidney failure once taken. The report says that tens of thousands children and infants in China are in critical condition and worst, several have died after drinking contaminated milk.

It's really a big scandal for China to be tagged as the source of this melamine scare and labelling almost Chinese products with melamine content would not be a good idea for them, because this will definitely result a big downtrend in their market.

Consumers are now more cautious with the products they buy in the market especially brands that are made-in-china. Some other products don't have a labelled country but here's a little guide for you guys to make sure that you are buying the right brand.

You can determine if the product is made from China through the barcode. The first to three digits of the code will represent the country where the product been made.

If Apple has iPod Classic and iPod Nano for their digital media, Microsoft has their own version and they called it Zune. It comes with different storage capacity like Zune4 with 4G, Zune8 with 8G, Zune16 with 16G, Zune80 with 80G and the latest one Zune120 with 120G which can holds up to 30,000 songs, 25,000 pictures, or 375 hours of video.

More gadget reviews says that Microsoft Zune is better than Apple iPod because of some useful and interesting features in Zune which are not available in iPod. Like the Wi-Fi for wireless synchronization or wireless file sharing, integrated FM radio tuner to gather tracks in the airwaves, preloaded games and customizable wallpaper background which will fits your mood.

Hopefully, Zune will hit ASIA as well because right now, Zune is only available in the US and Canada.
