Here u can post all hi-tech and game news, which u think r interestin & important (=

Mmm.. I start with New Opera 9.5

Within the first 5 days of this new version available, Opera 9.5 has received more than 4.7 million downloads. Pretty impressive I would say, but it’s just about half of the download total Firefox 3 received in 1 single day! The total download for Firefox is now surpassing 11 millions downloads worldwide.

Anyway, let’s glance through what new features we can get in Opera 9.5 :-
Sharp, new look and feel
Quick Find - Feature similar to Firefox3’s Smart Location Bar
Speed Dial - 9 visual bookmarks to your most used Web sites
Opera Link - synchronized between any Opera 9.5 desktop browser and Opera Mini
Fraud Protection
Anti-Malware

I love Opera too and usually I will switch in between Firefox and Opera while surfing. Both web browsers are great, no doubt about it.

32GB USB Flash Drive On Sale!

This morning, I was browsing through some sales of computer peripherals at Amazon and was a little shock to see such huge capacity USB flash drive is on sale!

Corsair Flash Voyager is the latest product manufactured by Corsair and it’s the largest capacity USB 2.0 flash drive to date with a massive 32GB of storage. While Moore’s law is suggesting memory capacity would double its size approximately every 2 years, I think this 32GB flash drive is a bit beyond the projection, don’t you think so?

Anyway, obviously this USB flash drive is not a prototype but an end product selling on the shelves in many online computer stores right now, below are some sales I found :-
US$154.99 at Amazon - Best value!
US$159.99 at Newegg
US$157.50 at MWave

Corsair is well known of its high quality and performance computer main memory (RAM), therefore they are confident with Corsair Flash Voyager by offering a 10 years limited warranty. Even though the durable rubber casing doesn’t make it one stylish flash drive, I suppose the capacity, reliability and its warranty are enough win our hearts.

Anyway, with such a huge capacity, you can practically store the entire Windows Vista operating system, all application programs, and a couples of DVD into it! Moving huge files from one PC to another PC outside a network and harddisk backup would never been easier using it too.

Das Keyboard - UberGeeks Only

Das Keyboard - A keyboard with no inscription on the keys. In other words, you won’t see any words printed on those keys on the board.

One of the benefits from using this keyboard is to type to 100% faster in a few weeks! LoL…

Since there is no key to look at when typing, your brain will quickly adapt and memorize the key positions and you will find yourself typing a lot faster with more accuracy in no time. It is amazing how slow typers almost double their speed and quick typers become blazing fast!

Das Keyboard is built from premium keyswitch technology that rivals or surpasses the best available keyboard today. The keys are factory tested to withstand over 30 million keystrokes, providing the ultimate in comfort and durability. The keyboard also features three Windows application keys.

The selling price for Das Keyboard is USD$75.95.

Man Sent 182,689 SMS In One Month !!

An Indian man, named Deepak Sharma, from Ludhiana, sent out 182,689 SMS messages in a month !!

So, this insane record has been recorded in the Guinness Book for having sent the most SMS messages in a single month.

If you have a calculator with you, thatâ€™s about 6,100 messages a day, 253 an hour, 4.2 a minute, or a new one every 14 seconds or so !!

You know what’s his return for doing that? It’s a 1,411 page long bill sent by his moile service provider, Airtel. I wonder is this a new Guinness world record or not? :p

By the way, this guy has an unlimited SMS plan. You know, people tend to be greedy when the thing is free, that’s why he fully utilized the unlimited SMS plan.
