Cisco Brings High Speed WiFi To Stadiums..

 Cisco has just announced a new WiFi access point and stadium antenna that covers smaller areas, perfect for use in arenas to give consumers improved access and wireless speeds. Research shows that although people don’t pull a lot of web data when they are, say, watching ‘the big game’, they transmit a heck of a lot of data to the outside world.

This says a lot about the needs of human interactionand remaining part of our social networks even when our friends cannot join us for a day out, watching the ball game.

The first to receive the new Cisco WiFi access point is the Livestrong Sporting Park in Kansas City, Kansas. Getting into the technology, the new WiFi access points operate on a dual-band, 2.5GHz and 5GHz frequency via an 802.11n.

The stadium antenna is just $945, which pays for itself in just one event if people pay a one-time 50 cent fee. Although Cisco has been supporting stadiums and arenas for the past two years, they aim to continue to bring fast speed connections to those attending the events.............

iPhone 5 Leaked In China ?

 With evidence mounting that the iPhone 5 is coming in the fall, here is some more fuel for the fire.

A new Chinese case design has been found on Alibaba.com, which is a business-to-business trading site for Chinese manufacturers and suppliers, claiming to be for the iPhone 5G. It is worth taking a look at as Chinese manufacturers often get design specs before the official launch.

Brian White, an analyst for Ticonderoga Securities, says that a China Mobile iPhone could “represent a watershed for Apple” giving the company access to 611 million wireless subscribers and 68% of China’s wireless market.

Samsung Electronics in Korea currently manufactures Apple’s A4 iPhone 4 and iPad 1 processors and the A5 processors used in the iPad 2 and soon the iPhone 5 as well if events unfold as widely expected.

However, with Apple suing Samsung over an unrelated matter, the two companies can be regarded as feuding frenemies at best, so it isn’t surprising that Apple might be seeking an alternate supplier for its iOS device processor silicon.

Furthermore, Wall Street Journal blogger Loretta Chao reports that a China Mobile employee named Liu Yang had spilled the beans on Sina Weibo, a Twitter-style Chinese micro-blogging network, although the post was soon deleted.

China mobile’s friendship with Apple has now begin to look serious. But is it that serious that Apple would release the iPhone first in China?

Transfer 50GB Of Data In 2 Minutes, Stream S20 HDD

 Silicon Power has just launched the all-new S20, a 2.5″ external hard drive that makes use of the extraordinary USB 3.0 speeds. If you’re unfamiliar with what USB 3.0 can do, it can copy 50GBs of data in just over two minutes.

The device has built-in LED status indicators that notify the user its power and transfer status. Also, the technology is green enough to make sure you don’t unnecessarily keep your external hard drive running all day long.

When there is 10 minutes of inactivity (meaning, no reading or writing), the drive automatically switches to a power saving, hibernation mode- similar to when you tell your computer to sleep.

Hibernation modes are great as they usually only require a watt or two of power, per hour. If 1TB is a little bit above your needs, fear not- the Stream20 also comes in more manageable sizes (500GB, 640GB, and 750GB).

Unfortunately we’re not quite sure about the pricing or availability, but I’d expect these drives to hit shelves in the coming months and be located on the higher end of the cost spectrum. If you’re serious about your data, you’ll go with the Stream S20 when it does come out, you won’t regret it.

What’s even better is that the front glass is scratch-resistant and offers haptic touch feedback to give users a better sense of what they are doing. The 3D sensor, mounted 100cm above the screen’s surface can recognize 3D objects in great detail, making it the perfect way to brainstorm new ideas or evaluate a prototype.
