For those that use a Smartphone and store important data for their work, Kasperski Mobile Security is a great protection layer, especially the version 7 that was just announced by the company.

It is developed for the Symbian and Windows Mobile-based handhelds, coming with new functions in charge with protecting the information stored on the mobile device, in case it is lost or stolen.
It ensures that no intruder will crack it allowing its owner to lock it completely and even automatically delete the entire content from the memory.

Also, if the Smartphone is stolen the data access can be locked from the moment it detects a different SIM than the original one.
The connections are filtered in real-time as well as the incoming files, as Kasperski Mobile Security 7 scans all the data in the handheld at pre-set hours.



You can set it to filter according to keywords or specific phone numbers based on the personalized black lists.
The updating process is made via WAP/HTTP or during PC synchronization.

The trial version can be obtained from Kasperski’ s web site while the license for a whole year has a price of $29.95.

During CeBIT 2008 at Hall 7 you will be able to see the new Casio electronic devices including its latest EXILIM Card EX-S10 digital camera which is the world’s slimmest 10.1MP with 3x optical zoom, measuring 13.8 mm thickness, 94.2 x 54.6 mm height x weight, at 113 grams.



It has a 2.7-inch Wide TFT Super Clear LCD display type with 230K pixels resolution, 1000:1 contrast ratio, and up to 1000 cd/m2 adjustable brightness, on which you can watch high quality videos recorded in H.264 format optimized for YouTube via YouTube Capture Mode.

Using the Wide Movie mode you can record 16:9 videos and watch them on your plasma or on LCD TVs in wide format with no distortion and without unclear sequences, thanks to the movie stabilization function.
Also, while filming you capture pictures because the new advanced digital camera from Casio supports this function.



The model works with the ELIXIM Engine 2.0 that lets you perform so many tasks while saving energy in the same time.
If you need to extend the internal memory of 11.8MB which is kinda little you can easily use a SD-/SDHC-Card / MMC / MMCplus memory card type.



The specifications include 1.2 seconds for the operating speed, 0.008 seconds for the shutter time lag, 1.9 seconds shot to shot time, Rapid Flash feature for instant shooting, 1/2 - 1/2.000 seconds shutter speed, maximum ISO 1600 sensitivity, Face Detection, Face Recognition, voice recording, red-eye reduction, on-image time stamp with world time, city name, date, time, plus USB 2.0 connectivity, AV interface, and a Li-Ion battery for up to 280 still images, two hours of video recording or six hours and 40 minutes of audio recording.

The new IBM Green Optical Link energy efficient prototype unveiled this week involves sending high definition data using light instead of standard wires and is capable of transmitting 8 million bps equaling 5,000 HD video streams and this is done using one 100 Watt light bulb.

Those that would benefit from this innovation are users that share HD videos and doctors that need to send HD medical videos to specialists in order to receive diagnoses.
It is an optical technology based on optical chips and optical data buses in a single unit with traditional components, that would save enormous amounts of power in supercomputers as for a standard 100 meter link the optical transfers consume 100 times less power saving 10 times over current commercial optical modules.

"Last year we unveiled an optical transceiver chip-set that could transmit a high-definition movie in under a second using highly customized optical components and processes" declared IBM Researcher Clint Schow, part of the team that built the prototype. "Just a year later, we’ve now connected those high speed chips through printed circuit boards with dense integrated optical ’wiring.’ Now we have built an even faster transceiver and have moved the optical components away from custom devices to more standard parts procured from a volume manufacturer, taking an important step toward commercializing the technology."

Vernam 8 Inch is not an ordinary digital photo frame but one with touch-sensitivity technology integrated into the front panel, allowing the user to play with the several functions the frame provides, without to leave fingerprints on the main display of 8 inches with 250 cd/m2 brightness and 300:1 contrast ratio.
Also, Vernam 8 comes with a remote control in case you prefer not to walk to it and do the settings from distance.

The frame is powered by a built-in rechargeable battery that lasts up to 1.5 hours, or via mains power adapter, and features an LCD display with 800 x 480 pixels resolution and a wide viewing angle - 65 degrees from bottom, 130 degrees from left to right, 45 degrees from top - MP3 player to have a surround music while watching the slideshow with your favorite moments, bult-in stereo speakers and memory, Calendar/Alarm functions, USB ports for PC connectivity, adjustable brightness depending on the light in your room, preset On/Off times, support for JPEG images and for the following video files: AVI, DivX, MPEG1/MPEG4, and Xvid.
