Nokia E6 QWERTY Smarthpone Hands-on Video

Posted on Wednesday, 27 April 2011 by Vito Zgonik

The last time a Nokia got top marks for a smartphone was probably for the Nokia E72 and E71 QWERTY smartphones. So it is good to see that Nokia will refresh the lineup with a Nokia E6 which is essentially all the we loved about the E71 and E72 plus the capacitive multi-touch screen. The 2.46 inch screen might sound small but with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels it is an absolute delight to use. Yes, Symbian isn’t perfect but since this isn’t a full-on large touchscreen smartphone that is not much of an issue. If you are after a great QWERTY smartphone and BlackBerry just doesn’t do it for you that the Nokia E6 is definitely the one to watch.

Posted on Saturday, 23 April 2011 by Vito Zgonik

We love stats especially when they OS related as they show us what people are using out there. It’s hard to believe that Windows XP after 9 years of release is still seating on top of the charts but that is all looking to change in the US with Windows 7 steadily climbing each month while Windows XP and Windows Vista (that FYI has never overtaken XP) are steadily loosing their share. StatCounter projected that by the end of April Windows 7 will become most used operating system in the US. Check the stats charts after the break. Continue reading >

Alienware M14x 14 inch Notebook Specifications Leak

Posted on Monday, 18 April 2011 by Vito Zgonik

Alienware M18x to big and heavy for you but the Alienware M11x R3 not powerful enough? No problem. Alienware got you covered with Alienware M14x. As the name suggest it is a 14 inch gaming notebook and thanks to leaked manuals we were able to get a hold of the specifications for this semi-portable beast. The screen will come in either 1366 x 768 px or 1600 x 900 px which might disappoint some wanting a full HD (1920 x 1080 px) screen but we think that for a 14 inch screen the 1600 x 900 px is perfectly adequate.
