Technology fever! What is it?

Today, in my blog, i shall not discuss technology stuff but rather the word "TECHNOLOGY" !


So what is technology? I think this word rather goes into a lot of depth so just keep it simple,,,, technology is anything related to something new to the humans and today, technology is based on IT And its fruits are in front of us!!!!! The iPhone , galaxy siii seen on the hands of the casual citizens who neither are billionaires nor landlords! Every one can be seen now to have some kind of technological stuff! Every one here has a phone right now! I'm sure about that!

Even phones go basic, people are now connected with the technology in every fields of life! Every one uses fridges, microwaves , freezers etc , even these things are technology! Just don't want to make the blog sophisticated, so m just going simpler as this topic is rather controversial from social and religious point of views!!!!

So made these things! Like The computers , silicon chip, it's rectifiers and the things goes even micro sophisticated ! It's the humans , it's us! We ate the ones who take intrest in technology !!! We are the ones who don't know we are suffering from technology fever! Many companies have already received the accolades of the society for bringing such stuff!

We all as a society, are very voracious about technological stuff! Especially in the Cyber field! So what should we do? Bring a new era,,, revolutionize our selves or change our angle to 180 degrees making our approach in the opposite direction? Some people may answer theres nothing to do as it is enough what we are blessed but keep in mind,,,, we don't revolutionize ourselves of our own,, its the time that revolutionizes dealing with the time is abysmal because there's no solution to stop it and we are part of the time! 2012 will be different and 2050 will be different ! e.g no one will be using windows 8 around 2050 or there may be no system of windows,,,,, something more advanced we don't know!
So I would predict and 100 % sure that one time, before the end of the world,, the computers will be so strong that we couldn't be living 1/100th part of a moment without them!

And According to me ,,, Xbox live is the best platform for online entertainment!

At their  presentation on June , 2010, Microsoft announced a redesigned Xbox 360 that  shipped on the same day. The redesigned console is slimmer than the previous Xbox 360 model and features integrated 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, optical audio output, five USB 2.0 ports (compared to the three from older versions) and a special AUX port. Older models of the Xbox 360 have since been discontinued. The first new console of slim version released features a 250 GB hard drive, while a later, less expensive, features 4 GB internal storage(My owned one).As an Owner of the Xbox 360 Slim 4GB model, I shall talk with the reference of the 4GB model!

With the announcement of the Xbox 360 Slim version on 2005 november, Microsoft has said : "We believe that the console is only mid-way through its life-cycle and will continue through 2015".

Memory depends on the version of your Xbox! Is it 4GB, 250 GB , 120 GB (THE ELITE MODEL) or you add more memory by External HDD!

But if You want to play in HD Mode by installing HD PACK of Graphics,    you need and HDD!

Developed under the codename "C1”, it is in many ways related to the R520 architecture and therefore very similar to an ATI Radeon X1800 series of PC graphics cards as far as features and performance are concerned. However, the Xenos introduced new design ideas that were later adopted in the R600 series, such as the unified shader architecture. The package contains two separate silicon dies, the GPU and an eDRAM, featuring a total of 337 million transistors.( don’t know the exact But its b/w 330/340)

XBOX LIVE:

Well, living in Pakistan is not suitable for Xbox live as Modchips are used and thus when u login to XBOX live ,, ure XBOX gets banned!But Xbox live is considered as the most valuable features of XBOX 360 by microsoft! You can Play multiplayer versionsm online of the games LIKE Battlefield 3 and many others! You can Download free demos !!! and many other advantages of Xbox live!

The Xbox 360 original GUI is the Xbox 360 Dashboard.The Dashboard can be launched automatically when the tray was ejected or the console started without disc , , but the user had  option to select what the console to do  if a CD was inside the tray!
 The Dashboard's simplified version is also accessible any timethrough Xbox guide Button on Game_PAD! This simplified version showed the user's gamercard , friend list & XBOX LIVE MESSAGES!. .

On the Occasion of Mid month of november , 2008,(IF IM NOT WRONG)The dashboard was changed from BLADE interface to a dashboard on the WMC(WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER) &ZUNE, known as the "new _xbox_experience" or "NXE"

These updates have Include many  a new features , Maximizing Ultimately the Xbox Live function principals capabilities of MEDIA PLAYBACK , + the addition of compatibility for new accessories, and Fixed some bugs in the software.

Apple launches iPod touch, nano updates!

 Apple launches iPod touch,nano updates

iPhones and iPads may get the attention these days, but Apple isn't ready to abandon its iconic music players just yet. The company announced two new iPods at its Wednesday media event—updated versions of the iPod touch and the iPod nano.

iPod touch

The new 5 GEN (fifth generation)iPod touch is thinner than its predecessor (6.1mm) last one was(7.2mm) and much  lighter (88.0 grams) against the last one (101.1 grams).The itouch’s  comes in many  colors (silver ,red , blue ,Black , yellow). There’s a new iPod touch addon in it! ,you can now  attach a wrist strap on the itouch 5GEN! The new touch’s screen is not only bigger,, 4 inches screen instead of  3.5 before,but it also  has a sharper Retina display. (Last one is less sharper but Aslo RETINA display) .It has the same screen as on the iPhone 5.So screenwise, The ipod touch 5gen is the same as the iphone 5
Performance wise,  the 5-GEN itouch has a dual-core A5 processor that  is   twice as powerful as the previous model’s CPU (2X). Theres' also addition to graphics...They are much better and enchanced!
The new touch has a much improved camera(FRONT AND REAR). It has a 5-megapixel sensor and has 1080p HD video recording. It has autofocus and LED flash.Now that's a big Change! 
 Apple inc. claims that the camera is much improved. Like the iPhone 5, lens cover , panorama feature, , is also  added in the ipod touch 5GEN camera!

Apple said that the new itouch battery will last for 40+ hours of music playback & upto to 8 hours of video playback,,,,,,not much difference from the previous gen(4th gen)or no difference!.  The wireless functions improved too,as with support for Bluetooth 4.0 and dual-band 802.11n networking. Like the iPhone 5, the itouch 5GEN comes with the whole new connector, as well as the new Apple EarPods!! (THATS LIKE IT!).
 The new touch will run iOS 6, so we'll get Facebook integration, twitter integration ect!! And the touch now supports Siri!!!!

iPod nano

The new nano is A blast !!! So much improved but one would buy an itouch because  the price differences aren't  much!
That display is a 2.5-inch, the largest display ever of a nano, it supports widescreen video. It adds many navigational buttons: There is a home button now for getting back to home screen! And it has volume control buttons and buttons like play pause etc!

Like the itouch 5gen , the new nano is thinner than its predecessor (5.4mm vs 8.78 mm). It also comes in a range of colors
Apple claims battery life is better on the nano, than the previous!Up to 30 hours of music playback!! And the nano also now supports Bluetooth! for wireless audio!

Pricing and availability

Apple will start taking pre-orders for the new iPod touch at the Apple Store (www.apple.com) Starting on mid September 20012; the touch will start shipping in October. The 32GB model will have a suggested price of $299, the 64GB model will run $399(bit of expensive in Pakistani rupees)
The previous 4GEN  iPod touch will still be available, as well, for $199 (16GB) and $249 (32GB). Owners of the fourth-generation touch will be able to install iOS 6 when its released on Sept. 19, though they may not be able to take advantage of all of its features.
The iPod nano will also be available in October, with suggested pricing of $149 for a 16GB model.(bit an expensive oNe!)
SUMMARY:

At the end, I would like to say that Apple has taken a good step to improve the iPod touch which is not only a music player and an entertainer but a complete package of what you get in  an iPhone  and its iPod nano which may be only a music player but never the less, as its the best music player , we have ever seen!!!
