Now that Intel’s brought together the world in a harmonious USB 3.0 Standard, here’s a first look at the new connectors brought to us by MaximumPC. Ten times faster than the old USB spec, USB 3.0 can transfer a 27GB file in just 70 seconds. Plus, with more “lanes” of data within the connector, new USB will be able to simultaneously send and receive information—that might not sound like much, but the old USB couldn’t do so. This first shot is of the A and B-side USB connectors (the normal USB and the fat one often used in printers). This second shot is of the new mini USB:
Yes, it looks a lot like a tiny HDMI cord.
The biggest benefit of USB 3.0, however, may be the new power management options. First, USB peripherals in standby will no longer be drained of their power while periodically checking in with your PC. That means less battery drain for laptop users, and to make things even better, this more efficient communication strategy will be backward compatible to USB 2.0 devices as well.
The other major power upgrade is that there’s a whole lot more running through the wire. The spec has been bumped from carrying 100 miliamps to 900 milliamps, meaning that we can expect faster charge times on USB devices along with less worrying about how many power-needy devices are plugged into our hubs.
For more of the nitty gritty on USB 3.0, hit up Maximum PC’s excellent rundown on the new tech.
It seems that you have so many devices on your computer table and you're not able to find space for you newly brought scanner then go for this keyboard which is integrated with a scanner in it. The keyboard is a USB keyboard. But one problem with this is that when you need a book to be scanned it doesn't serve your purpose, it is just a sheet scanner. Scanning is as simple as slotting the paper in through the slot at the top, and the paper will exit at the bottom. The Keyscan currently supports Windows XP and Vista, and costs $160, which isn’t the cheapest scanner around, but that’s the price of convenience, isn’t it?
Have u ever seen a gadget with more than three functionalities, here's one such. This mouse pad not only provide you with the mere smooth and clean surface for you to slide your peripheral across effortlessly but also has other features like
- Four port USB 2.0 hub
- Integrated stereo speakers
- Built-in microphone
- Built-in audio in and out ports
The mouse pad along with all these extra features is just for $ 19.99
Boy that Michael Phelps is fast. No one can argue it, he can dominate in almost any style of swim and possesses one of the best dolphin kicks in the world. That is, one of the best kicks aside from some random guy using the Lunocet monofin. Because while Phelps is able to swim at an inhuman 5 miles per hour, the average swimmer using the carbon fiber Lunocet will routinely hit about 8mph. Is it too late for us to book our tickets to Beijing?
The Lunocet weighs about 2.5lbs out of the water, but in the water it’s positively buoyant. Constructed from silicon wrapped in carbon fiber with a titanium footplate, the system gives you the same power on a downstroke as an upstroke. Coupled with a pair of strong legs the monofin could theoretically generate enough power to drive a human completely out of the water—yes, real life dolphin acrobatics at last.
So is the Lunocet worth its $1250 to $1800 pricetag? We don’t know, but it sure sounds a whole lot better than actually training. And we doubt that we’ll be getting access toDARPA's swimming tech anytime soon.
