SimpleTech Signature Mini Drive Review

SimpleTech Black Cherry HDD Review

A few months ago, we tested the SimpleDrive from SimpleTech, this time we had the opportunity to lay our hands on the new SimpleTech series, the Signature Mini Drive. Our test unit is a Signature Mini Black Cherry 320GB. The packaging could be confused with a chocolate box. Just like the previous version, we are still in awe with the slick design of the enclosure. It is very portable, weighs less than half a pound, measures around 3 in. by 5 in. and does not require any bulky external power supply, just a two-headed UBS connection cable. Windows XP and Vista detected the device within seconds and it was ready to go. Mac users would want to reformat to MacOS Extended before they can write onto the disk. As we pointed out in our review of the SimpleDrive, if the unit needs to be compatible with both Windows and Mac, format the drive in FAT.

Skype Mouse Phone

Skype Mouse Phone

The Skype Mouse Phone proudly touts itself to be the first sliding cover USB VoIP mouse in the world, featuring an integrated microphone and speakers that won't be picking up accolades anytime soon. Sure, they might be adequate for YouTube clips, but anything more than that will betray the lack of quality within. Other features include an LCD display and a keypad so that you will be able to call your family and friends via Skype by dialing the number directly.

Huawei E180 HSPA USB Modem

Huawei E180 HSPA USB Modem

Huawei lays claim to the world's slimmest HSPA USB stick modem - the e180. This diminutive device measures a mere 10mm thin, and is capable of supporting both HSPA/UMTS and GSM/GPRS/EDGE network technologies. This translates to superior uplink speed rates of up to 5.76Mbps and a downlink of up to 7.2 Mbps. Features include a rotatable USB connector, making it the perfect plug-and-play device for mobile broadband users. Since the USB connector can be turned around, you don't have to worry about losing a cover while keeping the connector protected. Interestingly enough, the E180 is also equipped with a microSD memory card slot that can support up to 8GB of additional memory, turning this into an impromptu USB flash drive.

Prezenter PSR Dual-Display Tablet PC

Prezenter PSR Dual-Display Tablet PC

Salesmen making their pitch with the traditional pen-and-paper method are outdated - in this digital age, business deals are sealed over a satisfying computer presentation. The Prezenter PSR dual-display tablet PC brings the best of both worlds, with a device that has the larger display facing your audience while you get the smaller 7" touch screen that folds down on the other side. In that limited space, you get to doodle and circle your main points, and those will appear for the audience to see, creating a much more interactive sales pitch. Other features include :-

  • AMD Geode LX800 processor
  • 512MB RAM
  • 80GB hard drive
  • 1.3 megapixel webcam
  • Wi-Fi connectivity
The Prezenter PSR will retail for a rather steep $1,800 - I don't see this getting too popular anytime soon.
