Comparison: Download Managers

Comparison: Download Managers

Most Internet traffic is the videos and songs are circulating out there, either via streaming, P2P or direct download.

The latter concept, direct download, has gained popularity in recent years. It is no longer downloading anything directly from an FTP address. Now you can share files of all types and sizes using sites like Rapidshare, Megaupload or Mediafire.

The main problem of direct discharge is you have to wait a few seconds to download the file in question and can only download one file at a time, unless you want to pay a premium account. This is where programs such as those analyzed below.

jDownloader, Universal Share Downloader, Tucan, RDesc, Mipony and other download managers like are specialized for direct download. Its aim is to download files from Rapidshare and the like automatically, doing the dirty work for you without recourse to anything.

In the variety is the spice

The free hosting sites abound on the Internet. There is something for all tastes and varied capabilities and limitations. This forces many times to split a file into several parts to be able to upload.

Of the programs analyzed, the clear winner in terms of supported sites is Universal Share Downloader, with more than 300 addresses around the world. The rest will continue to serve to the best known, but maybe I'll stop lying if the link is more special.

CTRL + C, CTRL + V

If you download files from Rapidshare or Megaupload often no problem to copy the link (CTRL + C) and paste it into your download program (CTRL + V).

But if you work with a large volume of links, things change. Fortunately, these programs monitor the clipboard or the Web browser and automatically add links to your main window and check if the link is working or has been removed, no matter you add one or twenty.

In particular, Mipony wins, as well as integrating with Internet Explorer and Firefox and monitor the clipboard, has its own Web browser. Universal Share Downloader jDownloader and also monitor clipboard and integrate with Web browsers. For its part, RDesc only monitors the clipboard and Tucan need to add the links manually.

Failed links

One of the main problems of the links Rapidshare, Megaupload or Mediafire is its short duration. Thus it is worth your download manager check if these links work or not.

jDownloader, Universal Share Downloader and Mipony automatically detect failed links, while RDesc and Tucan need to push a button to perform the check.

Captchas and waiting times

There is no point having a direct download manager if you do not get along with captchas, security measure used by major links to make sure that whoever performs the download is a human and not a bot or a program.

While the five programs analyzed recognize captchas, none of them can overcome the waiting time and skip the limitation of a puff at a time with the same IP.

Updates

In connection with the captchas and other protections from Rapidshare, Megaupload and others, managers are required to download updated from time to time to get down files, so that periodic updates are essential.

jDownloader is a clear winner in this area, updated every plugin separately. Second, there are Universal Share Downloader and RDesc, also updated its components but in a more tight for the user.

In the case of Tucan, the update is manual, having to mark the plugins to update.

Conclusions

Broadly, the five tested download managers work very well. Proof of this is the good score they have achieved in Softonic and the number of downloads that have their backs.

Choose one or the other depends on our use of direct download links. jDownloader is properly configured by default, is updated continuously and capture or copy any link you click on your browser.

Universal Share Downloader also gives good results, but its interface is improved.

For its part, Tucan RDesc and are focused completely control the links, deciding which to download and what not, without depending on the program's capture clipboard or not.

Finally, Mipony shares jDownloader ease of use and also has its own integrated Web browser.

Tools for Internet job search

Tools for Internet job search

Find a Job is paradoxically a common occupation thankless and at times very satisfactory. I say this because the performance of the effort is not guaranteed and will know when the fruit. However, ordinary mortals have to go through this process.

Once minded, must be put on the table the tools. When you have a highly specialized professional profile is likely that word of mouth and social relations are most effective. The rest should be marked clear objectives, that is, decide what you want and under what conditions, and with these parameters to start looking.

The mentality that a profile is to a broken and disjointed is not recommended, because if you are suitable for many fields can not be excellent at none. Excellence is always singular.

Once the sector, activity, location, the range of pay and conditions, you can start the search. This has been done traditionally in employment offices, through advertisements in newspapers and agencies. Today, except in cases of advice, it makes sense to find deals on these sites, taking into account that the agencies, newspapers and employment agencies publish them online.

In Spain we have several websites specializing in employment:Infojobs, Laboris, Oficinaempleo, Monster, Infoempleo, Trabajar.com, expansionyempleo, Etc. There are also some regional public employment offices that do not work at all bad. Here you can find a more complete list job portals in Spain. They are not all alike because they have the same sources when publishing deals.

Should take a look at each one and register in those kind of deals that fit what you are looking for. The registration process is long and tedious because you have to create a resume fill in all fields of data. Not worth cutting and pasting. You have to tailor information to what is asked. The good part is you only have to do this once.

In some sites like Monster can create multiple profiles for different field CV which you want to find work. You can also disable a profile for someone else to find businesses.

All are adding tools such as recommendations, language assessments, etc. But in general, can be considered an addition. If a company wants to know the language skills of a candidate will undergo a specific test.

For the job search portals, there are the social networks of professionals. The best known are Linkedin and Xing. The objectives of these networks are more extensive than those of the search portals. Trying to get in touch professionals to create collaborative teams, discussion groups, ask for advice, also seek employment, etc.

In both of them in others is essential to create a well structured CV, putting in place who is going to read. Surely someone from Human Resources who may know very little of the work of the professionals it hires.

Should take full advantage of the tools within each page: tracking offers, visibility of the curriculum, sample letters of introduction, curriculum update alerts, etc.

Your computer can help here, what else is a matter of perseverance. Suerte!

Increases the duration of your laptop battery B

Windows minimize consumption

In addition to using a few programs, the operating system itself spends a good amount of energy. Your primary mission as saving energy is to allow devices to rest when not in use. The heavyweights are the screen, DVD, hard drive and processor.

Bajar the brightness level is essential. You can usually get through the key Function (Fn) and sliders. Can not you see anything? In this case, use BattCursor to lower the brightness automatically after a certain period of inactivity. A curious as you can perform is to put a dark wallpaper.

More complicated is to rest the hard drive, generally what we need. If you have enough RAM, try to disable virtual memory from Control Panel> System> Advanced> Performance. This will prevent Windows makes use of the hard drive when you can use the RAM. Defragment drives is another good idea, it will make disk access faster and more efficient.

Minimize the CPU usage goes to follow the recommendations of the previous sections. That is, use simple alternatives, not having many programs open and close everything that is not strictly necessary.

The hardware also has

Of course, the hardware plays an important role in energy consumption, and we must control its use. As already mentioned, DVD drive consumes a large amount of energy, So it is not advisable to abuse it. Leave a DVD inserted in the reader is a lousy measure. Windows has the annoying habit of reading the content as you open a File Explorer.

Some laptops have the option to remove the disk drive, literally. Is obtained at the same time a reduction in equipment weight and lower power consumption. It is a measure somewhat radical, but quite efficient and simple, if not regularly use the reader.

Any component that does not require to be disconnectedIncluding PCMCIA cards (even if disabled), USB devices like mice and keyboards and, of course, MP3 players connected via USB to recharge your battery.

Probably your computer has Bluetooth, WiFi or other capabilities (compatibility with e-SATA drives, integrated audio card ...) that can be disabled or from the system BIOS or from Windows. If you're not using, turn it off.

Hibernate instead of suspending

Suspend the system is very convenient because you can return to previous state immediately. However, in this way the computer never shuts off completely, So it continues to consume certain energy. If you're not using your computer for a while hibernate instead of suspend.

For short breaks is better SleepBecause enough energy is spent reading the data written to disk.

Adjusts the power plan

Adjust the power plan is a critical step. While you'll generally predefined power plans quite adequate, there will always be the most optimal. How to adjust them in Windows Vista going to go to Control Panel > Power Options. In this section you can change a few aspects of the conduct of the cover or how long it takes Windows to turn off the screen.

If you want to create a new plan (something recommended, rather than modify existing ones) click on Create a power plan. Once it is created, we recommend that pressures Change Plan Settings and then you click Change advanced power settings. In this section you can configure all the features of the plan from a single window instead of in three or four separate sections, as was achieved under the "non-advanced."

Some programs such as Vista Battery Saver and BattCursor can automate the exchange energy plan as if it is using the battery or not.

Moreover, Powerslave change the energy plan by time of day.

Nvidia promises 200 notebook models with Sandy Bridge and its graphics

Nvidia promises 200 notebook models with Sandy Bridge and its graphics

Nvidia announces Press Release to that in the first half of 2011 a record 200 models with Intel's new CPU platform "Sandy Bridgecome "and a GeForce GPU on the market. Some of the manufacturers Acer, Alienware, Asus, Dell, Fujitsu, HP, Lenovo, Samsung, Sony and Toshiba.

Most of the models should have between 6 and 9 January will be announced if, in the U.S. Computer CES takes place. However, it is considered bad time for notebook manufacturers - new models in January complicate the sale of the Christmas season assembled remnants. Intel is therefore the launch of the dual-core version of Sandy Bridge postponed to February have. Only then should the manufacturers introduce models with this processor in the market.

The announcement suggests that the PC maker with the power of the improved integrated Intel graphics not quite satisfied. Especially for users interested in games it is unlikely to little. With Optimus Nvidia is ready for a technology that allows users to between integrated Intel graphics and more efficient to change Nvidia GPU.

For AMD and its ATI graphics chip division is the large number of Intel-based notebook models with Nvidia graphics not good news. The collaboration between Intel and Nvidia more difficult for the processor and its competitors Radeon Series competition. In second quarter of 2010 had AMD in the graphics market for discrete solutions still can position before Nvidia. This comfortable position, it threatens to lose.

For Nvidia, the market for Windows notebooks is more important than Apple Reportedly think about it, to give in cheaper Macbooks with Sandy Bridge to a Nvidia chip. It is said that Apple consider the improved Intel graphics in this segment are sufficient.

BAK and Car battery

BAK and Car battery

$ 300,000,000 bet car battery BAK: results in 3,5 years

Neighbors and BYD Battery Co., Ltd. Shenzhen BAK (CBAK.Nasdaq), new energy vehicles in the table, who spent 300 million U.S. dollars in chips. The mobile phone, laptop battery based industry companies, but also put into the development of battery vehicles, electric vehicles in the future hope to grab a slice of the feast.

"Companies are prepared, this investment at least 3-5 years to see results." BAK Battery, vice president of marketing, said Cui Ke.

In the IT, communications to the development of small profit margins today, seeking growth next important issue is the battery manufacturers. For BAK Battery, this point is not only a good prospect, but not every competitor can follow up.

Thousands of units per year car sales in the world, as long as one tenth of the vehicle battery, is a huge market. Cui Ke dreaming, where he went to the BAK Battery is also good prospects. Although their current business Liucheng from cell phone batteries, three come from HP, Dell laptop battery OEM.

BAK said it would take 300 million U.S. dollars budget to build new plant in Tianjin, the production of power batteries. At present, the initial investment over the plant, are a number of pilot light electric vehicle batteries.

"End of the year to pilot car battery." Cui Ke said. But when it can achieve returns, Cui Ke estimate, "at least another 3-5 years." Currently, they focus on supply of electric bicycles. Capacity of the National LEV, Tianjin has one third of the world, this is a new plant site BAK Battery, Tianjin, an important reason.

Mozambique's strategy is: start doing light electric vehicle batteries began the transition to a car battery. This allows a gradual transition in technology, you will not be up to several years of investment of the collapse.

From single cells, to a dozen batteries, to the hundreds of battery packs, it seems that only numbers. But how to ensure the consistency of the battery, and supporting the corresponding cell control system, as a constraint to technological bottlenecks in the industry. Who can overcome technical bottlenecks, whoever will be the biggest beneficiaries of new energy vehicles. Of course, people who can keep up with changes, but also share the feast.

Risk is, who is also not allowed after 3-5 years in the end security can not be profitable, and pre-investment is real money. Cui Ke said, although there are 863 projects funded, and local government in terms of investment and financing some of the green light to open, the pressure is still very large funds.

Opportunities?

A few years ago, a Nokia cell phone battery asking price 200 yuan, and now can be purchased for tens of dollars for cell phone manufacturers do everywhere. "You can not always be a mobile phone battery, the secondary market price war is too cruel," Zhongguancun (3.93, -0.32, -7.53%), a communications equipment sales sigh, as far as he knew, and even some hand-made battery workshop .

Price war with notebook manufacturers and the rise of the Internet, the cost of laptop batteries sharp compression. In response to the recovery of Korean battery manufacturer, BAK Battery, recently added two production lines in order to return with the cost advantages of scale.

Behind these self-help measures, China battery manufacturers generally helpless. Electric vehicles are being introduced the New Deal, it seems to provide them with an opportunity. It is understood that, in addition to BAK outside the few big battery manufacturers have begun to varying degrees, R & D of electric vehicle batteries.

"For many battery manufacturers, this is indeed good news." Changshu, Jiangsu Province by the Triangle Institute of Technology, Changsha, environmentally friendly energy Yongkang said. He said that the country vigorously promote the policy of new energy vehicles will certainly promote the development of related products market.

But he also believes that the field of automotive batteries if you want to Denver, companies must have a considerable accumulation, "Not every company can do" because it eventually hundreds of millions of investment.

This input becomes most uncertain future is the direction of electric vehicle development problems. Detection of related technologies, standards are not clear, hybrid transition period, recovery of raw materials costs and difficult environmental problems caused by, battery manufacturers have increased the risk of betting.

According to market analysis, refer to BYD's stock price, and now the concept of new energy vehicles difficult to have confidence in the stock market a substantial boost. Meanwhile, the uncertain prospects of the technology and policy, but also the most industry funds do not want to touch the risk.

"BYD's warehouse, but also piled ten million battery scrap the experiment." Difficulty of the experiment, Cui Ke company has prepared, but he said the company had not expected to lose money in the end the number of early.

Sand Yongkang prediction: "Finally, only a few can be successful."

Fuel cell products made in China exported bulk

Fuel cell products made in China exported bulk

January 5 reports: Along with the "Water and Sustainable Development" as the theme of the 2008 World Expo closing of Spain, the Chinese fuel cell products in the international arena, the successful debut also drew the curtain.

Impression in people's past, the fuel cell is more of a veiled high-tech products, very green, very advanced, but still far from practical. A company called climbing the emergence of hydrogen energy industry to change this situation. Has now developed a series of fuel cell products, and has applied to the tour buses, bicycles, portable power and other occasions.

Bottlenecks due to technical restrictions, the domestic fuel cell in the past mostly as a demonstration purpose. Even if only as an occasional sample sales, and not a batch. The climbing equipment, the fuel cell industry, 21 electric bicycle export to Spain. Fuel cells and fuel cell products, though the sample is only one word, but the meaning is very different. As the product not only satisfied with the work to stabilize, and must have the durability, practicality, cost, appearance and other aspects as well as considerations. In addition for different markets, the relevant certification was necessary.

The export volume fuel cell products is another important significance lies in its purely domestic! This not only refers to the bicycle body also includes a key raw material in fuel cells: catalyst, membrane, carbon paper and the localization of bipolar plates. In which the catalyst and membrane by climbing industry independent research and development and production. Long been neglected domestic raw materials in the practical proof of its outstanding performance in par with international similar products. At the same time the localization of key materials, so often been criticized for the cost of fuel cells can be effectively controlled. Since most of the past, the key raw material to be imported, which makes the cost of the fuel cell control was clutched in the hands of foreign companies, the stakes just look at China's IT industry will be able to get some idea. As foreign enterprises to master the most upstream CPU technology, most IT enterprises has become an overseas Chinese enterprises assembly plant and the client, the price level determined entirely by the upstream firm.

Because these products excellent performance in Spain, climbing industry, the company's Spanish and Italian partner is actively planning for vehicles driven on public roads in the matter, in 2009 there will be more Chinese-made fuel cell products in Europe.

Power Lithium Battery Product Analysis

Power Lithium Battery Product Analysis

Has the "ultimate energy" and "green energy," said the lithium-ion batteries, since the 90s of last century since the advent of electronic products from the button batteries, cell phone, DC digital products in the lithium battery, the electric vehicle in the battery power, is increasingly widely used in people's production and life. Compared with other batteries, lithium-ion batteries on whether it is from the volume, weight, or from the performance, have a great advantage.

To use in a reasonable range of voltage within the capacity of lithium batteries, one-sided pursuit of large capacity, high voltage is wrong. First, any thing to go through a simple to complex, from hard to easy the process is also flammable like gas, effectively guarantee the safety of lighters is relatively easy, to effectively guarantee the safety of fuel tanks would much more difficult, crash is still not fully resolved the situation when the car caught fire and exploded. A limited volume in the more energy the more the accumulation of bad management, is currently the largest in Suzhou Star 48V10Ah constant can only guarantee the safety of the battery combination. Second, the higher the voltage, the greater the capacity, protection circuit and a balanced circuit the greater the difficulty and failure rate, so do not advocate Suzhou Star constant and does not support beyond 48V10Ah battery combination.

Depends on the safety of lithium battery testing and certification

A, UL certified

Today, most countries and regions in the world involving security, health, environmental protection projects such as product requirements must be obtained before entering the market, the safety certification. UL mark has become world famous one of the safety certification mark.

30min cooled to within 20 ± 3 °C, heat 2h.

30min the temperature to 40 ± 3 °C, heat 4h.

30min cooled to within 20 ± 3 °C.

Repeat the above cycle 9.

10 cycles, the battery put 7 days for inspection. Samples should be no fire, no explosion, no leakage.

(7) altitude simulation: the sample cell at an absolute pressure of 11.6Kpa (1.68psi), 20 ± 3 °C (68 ± 5 ° F) conditions, stored for 6 hours. Sample cell is not an explosion or fire, can not have holes or leaks.

6, charge and discharge test

(1) charge and discharge cycles: test temperature 25 °C, according to the manufacturer's batteries to charge and discharge cycles required, the initial nominal capacity of recycling to 25% capacity or 90 days after the termination of a continuous loop. Samples should not be any security incidents.

(2) short-circuit test: less than 0.1Ω resistance of copper wire on the positive and negative for short-circuit the battery, the battery discharge until the fire or explosion, or until the battery is fully discharged, the temperature back to room temperature to stop the shell (test at room temperature for 60 ± 2 °C circumstances.) Samples should be no fire, no explosion, the shell or the battery case temperature does not exceed 150 °C.

(3) non-normal charge test: normal discharged to 3 times the normal charge current of the current charge. No fire, no explosion.

(4) forced discharge test: fully discharged batteries at room temperature, and a number of new batteries of the same model in series, the formation of the battery pack short circuit test. Samples should be no fire, no explosion.

(5) over charge: the battery in fully charged condition to 3C, 10V constant current, constant voltage to charge the battery, when the current reaches 100mA, the converted constant voltage for 48 hours.

7, identifies

The battery manufacturer should identify the name, trade name or trademark, style setting. The battery identification Warning, and a corresponding description.

Second, ExtraEnergy standards

ExtraEnergy certification is a non-profit organization based in Germany, Tanzania Na, the main work is to focus on the global neutrality of light electric vehicles of information, and provide value-added services, including testing related to the safety of lithium batteries is very strict, rigorous, get most European customers.

Testing standards are listed below.

Test methods test the safety standards before the state test method

Men want technology

Women take note: your men also want to have again this year in particular PCs, flat screen TV, computer games and software. Every second man, a technical device is high on the list.

Significantly reserved here are the women: Only one Third dreams of a new technology toy. The results of a representative survey of the electronics association Bitkom lobby under 1000 inhabitants in Germany over 14 years, which conducted the market research institute Forsa.

"The Christmas shoppers benefit from that pricing for high-tech devices this year have fallen once again strong," said Bitkom president August-Wilhelm Scheer. Sun digital cameras are now have around 100 and for the new mini-notebook for less than 400.

Most significantly the discount was once more in the flat-screen TVs: The average prices for the devices within a year have fallen by almost ten percent to 880 - and rising. Industry experts anticipate that many families are losing because of recession but now on a new TV. Because the producers did, however, set to a humming Christmas season, it will now come to an oversupply.

Good conditions for bargain hunters: The market researcher iSuppli expect the manufacturer with a fierce price war will deliver to the customers. Price reductions of up to 50 percent could be the result. According to the Forsa plan nine percent of Germans to buy a new TV.

At the top of the wish list this year is, however, game software. According to the survey want to buy 11 percent of all Germans over 14 years of new games for the computer or game console. This corresponds to around 8 million customers. is in second place with a share of 10 percent of computer accessories, such as a new printer, an external hard drive or upgrading to wireless Internet via Wi-Fi Modem. 8 per cent want a digital camera and each 6 percent, a new cell phone or an MP3 player.

The cosmetics manufacturer Beiersdorf and the steel producer Salzgitter gets two new additions to the German stock index DAX. This requires the tire maker Continental and the real estate financier Hypo Real Estate vacate their seats.

The first stock exchange league enough future to Hamburg first time in the 20-year history of the German Dax stock index moves up with the Nivea manufacturer Beiersdorf Group from Germany's second largest city in the leading index.

As the German stock exchange yesterday evening announced after the market closes, will also be added to the Lower steel tube manufacturer and Salzgitter in the Dax. This requires the tire manufacturer Continental (Hanover) and the real estate financier Hypo Real Estate evacuate (HRE / Munich) their places. HRE and Conti will continue in the MDAX of medium-sized listed values. The changes are effective as at 22 December. Last of the Kassel K + S fertilizer companies for tourism and shipping group Tui was moved up in the Dax.

"We are very pleased to now be among the top 30 listed companies in Germany" are one, "said the CEO of Beiersdorf AG, Thomas-B. Quaas. "We Nivea have done in recent years in the market for skin and beauty care for the world number one. And we are confident that we will continue to develop better than the market. "

Salzgitter sees in the Dax-rise and a confirmation of its successful growth strategy. "We are very pleased about this rise, but remain with both feet on the ground. Exaggerated expectations of the change we cherish not, "said company spokesman Bernd Gersdorff. However, it is desirable, medium and long term to remain in the segment.

A Continental spokesman said in Hanover: "We are still of the opinion that Continental is in the Dax and also in the sense of the index continuity to remain in the Dax pleads." Even in the course of the takeover offer by Schaeffler Group shares offered are not freely tradable on the stock exchange. In addition, Conti expect that even after a takeover still enough shares will be freely tradable, to meet the criteria of the German stock exchange.

A HRE spokesman in Munich did not comment on the Dax-down of real estate financier. Hypo Real Estate in the wake of the financial crisis had happened on the verge of collapse. The market value of the group broke a dramatically this year: The market capitalization of tradable shares (free float) fell since the beginning of 7.6 billion euros to 623 million euros.

After the Frankfurt market operator as a result of the turbulence at the carmaker VW papers had amended its rules index is a proportion of freely tradable shares of at least ten (previously five) percent requirement for all in the German indices noted values.

The M-Dax value AMB Generali has to leave because of his insufficient free float share all indices. According to the decision of the Working Group equity indices of Deutsche Borse for the shares of the specialty packaging manufacturer Gerresheimer in the index of the medium value is taken.

The technology index Tec-Dax lost - partly because of the new free float system - the telecom company Versatel and electronics specialist Epcos their places at Smartrac and Jenoptik. In the S-Dax vacant space of the M-Dax-climber Gerresheimer and the S-Dax-places of SME Bank and IKB HCI Capital are held by Klockner-Werke, Loewe and Delticom.

The old equipment

The old equipment

Cordless phones really make life easier. But beware: Some very old equipment to radio waves, which are banned from next year. Anyone who buys a new phone, you can expect heavy fines of up to 2,000.

The difference is in some obscure abbreviations. Are prohibited from January devices to cordless CT1 + standard analog transmission, the CT and get second These devices are likely only in very few households, as was already foreseen in 1998 that these standards are eventually eliminated.

The problem: These phones use certain wavelengths that are reserved in 2009 for phone calls. From then on E-Plus and O2 customers will be calling on these frequencies or surf the mobile Internet. On the freedom when cordless phone must therefore not be waived, but a few for my current device.

For current cordless phones use the so-called DECT StandardDECT stands for "Digital European cordless telecommunications" and introduced in 1992 called the European standard for digital radio transmission. It connects with cordless phones, the mobile handset with the base station. Advantages of DECT is the high voice quality and privacy, the identification of the handset and base station and subscriber identification. With DECT, up to twelve handsets to be connected to the base. That is secure, and guarantee better quality. Do not panic: In most households, these machines are in use for years. According to Manfred Breul, head of the telecommunications industry association Bitkom, have responded to large manufacturers many years ago and stopped production of the old equipment.

From the Far East were in the aftermath, however, still get a lot of cheap imports into Germany. "It may be true that have been sold this year even the analog standard equipment," he warns. Therefore it is difficult to estimate how many such phones are currently in use.

But how can you find out whether one uses one of the banned phones soon? Here the view helps in the manual. "Should not be available, you can also enter the type name of the phone into an Internet search engine and you'll have the necessary information," advises the expert. These data are usually found on the underside of the base station. If both methods do not lead to a result that also helps a simple test.

Therefore you must be on the phone from the base station to leave. In the disputed equipment breaks the connection does not suddenly, but is overlaid by a higher noise. A modern DECT phone You can tell that it comes at too great a distance to sudden interruptions, the connection quality has previously not abated.

Those who still remains one of the prohibited uses as of January phones must face heavy penalties. To track down the old equipment, drive test car of the Federal Network Agency, through residential areas or go to Display. "The effort to identify the source of interference may be 1000-2000, and is the user of the phone by the Federal Network Agency is charged." Addition could also be imposed a fine. Mild to the user is likely not to share. "There are already ten years a transition period. At some final time must also be "stressed the expert.

Cordless phones have become anything but expensive in the supermarket or wholesale electronics there are simple devices from 20. Even those who prefer a neat device with voice and sound equipment like something, it must not spend so much more: The testers Connect the journal have been tested at the end of time, some devices out there for under 100.

For the winner was crowned with the narrow lead Sinus A 501 of the Deutsche Telekom. The telecom markets the devices under its own name, they are manufactured by Siemens. In addition to the convenient phone number management praised the magazine the integrated answering machine. Only the power system, it was easy deductions have here the testers wanted a little more frugal. In Internteshops the devices are to have from 70 plus shipping.

Hardly a bad cut from the Panasonic KX-TG8321. Here are enchanted by the elegant design, but also on the equipment, processing, and gave the readings it nothing to criticize. No wonder the Japanese manufacturers can point to many years of experience in the development of cordless phones. Of course the Panasonic device has an integrated answering machine the same. Only when there is power for improvement, according to Connect, the testers wanted a modern switching power supply. The price on the internet search revealed to the KX-TG8321 at a price of 65 plus shipping.

For the price of the magazine has named Tip the Swiss Avena 758th Ironically, the device now costs more than the competitor to Panasonic and is on par with the telecom model. Such price hikes are not uncommon after testing devices have cut heavily. Advantage of the Swiss model is its economy, it must be an owner to live with a smaller screen than the first and second place. Currently, online retailers require from 70 for the Avena 758, then to get the shipping costs.

With the online purchase can save a lot of money, in part, the potential savings is 30 percent or more compared to the retail price. However, there are hunting for bargains a few things to note, as the news.de-shopping guide explains.

Environmental badge does not stop Stinker

Environmental badge does not stop Stinker

Are the current test methods of emissions inspection still time? Especially with diesel experts doubt the validity of the measurement method. The requirements for the diesel study are from the 80s.

The establishment of environmental zones has kicked up some dust. They are supposed to reduce pollution of the inner cities by dangerous particles. Therefore, older diesel vehicles that emit very much soot, were banned from smoking.

Into it since they can only if they are retrofitted with a particulate filter and provided as evidence of the cleaned exhaust gases with an environmental badge. New diesel models have the filter as standard now on board. What is the technological effort, however, brings to the residents, no one can say. For whether the required emission levels are met, not controlled.

The legislature is currently writing, for routine emission test (AU) for diesel vehicles, only one function test and an inspection before the so-called opacity of exhaust gases, said Bert corporal by TUV Nord. The examiner looks in determining whether the exhaust system is technically in order. For cars with on-board diagnostic (OBD) is also controls whether the electronic displays an error.

The measurement of smoke opacity of the exhaust is loud corporal with the so-called Opacimeter: This is the revving of the engine blown gas flow through a meter. This one light beam is sent through a tube filled with the exhaust gas and measuring the light fraction that is swallowed by the waste gases ". The absorption must not exceed specified limits.

A more detailed analysis of the emission behavior is by this method, which was introduced in the 80 years to get the biggest stinker diesel from the road, not possible. It can not determine the amount of corporal, according to the emitted soot particles. However, this is crucial, among other things, whether the car gets an environmental badge - and if so, which.

The experts therefore had to consider within the AU is no possibility that a diesel vehicle bears the red, yellow or green sticker on environmental law, recognizes a corporal. Also says nothing about the measurement of whether a retrofit soot filters to function properly and the car still allowed to drive in the LEZ. "The AU we would not notice."

The testing organizations can not be blamed. You must abide by the legally established procedures. "Not" The measurement methods conform to the current state of technology, said Hans-Juergen Maeurer, head of development for testing the expert organization Dekra. The AU-measurement lags behind kind of engine development.

From the consumer perspective is not the current situation unacceptable, says Gerd Lottsiepen of Transport Club Germany (VCD), "Today, customers pay for something that does not work. It would have to come urgently a new trial. "Acknowledges that not a meaningful emissions inspection for customers will be more expensive. It must however be at least ensures that key technical systems work well in the car.

"If you make an environmental test, the test also measure it, is to measure what he" says Lottsiepen. After all, he has not given up hope that the legislature in the future but still grinds to a better measurement methods. Thus, there exists at least a first reflection, the framework of the AU to adapt accordingly.

For the exhaust emission test (AU) for passenger cars are basically the same terms as for the main study (HU). For new cars, according to the ADAC, the first test date after 36 months is due. All the following tests are then at the 24-month rhythm. Freed from the AU principle gasoline remain first registered before 1 July 1969 and diesel first registered before 1 January 1977. Even vehicles with red plates or temporary plates and of agricultural and forestry tractors, self-propelled machinery and trucks are excluded from the investigation.

The Porsche in the ear doctor

The Porsche in the ear doctor

In the automobile will actually leave nothing to chance. True to the motto: "Who wants to feel, must be able to hear," drive the manufacturer great expense to the sound of their vehicles right to vote. Then come even speakers in the exhaust is used.

"The sound of a car is part of the charm of driving," says Rainer Schmidetzki. This has the developers at Volkswagen in Wolfsburg, no doubt. For vehicles for a broad customer base, although one eighth of a possible subtle and balanced engine sound. Not for nothing is about the new Golf the quietest Golf of all time. "But the sport, a model is positioned to sound more meaty and powerful must be the engine."

"The sound there is not an engine," says Bernhard Pfafflin from the Porsche Development Centre in Weissach near Stuttgart. "What we hear from the drive is always a combination of the intake noise, mechanics in the motor and the mouth of the exhaust sound." And the art is to compose these three votes a good sound.

"We have set screws while many", says VW developers Schmidetzki and exhaust system, the engine and the switching logic counts on the transmission. There are also numerous active systems to the speaker in the exhaust system, with which the developer can vary the pitch of a car.

"But the margin is narrow, because the legislature makes us harsh." While only the volume and the tone was not prescribed, but the quieter one car is, the harder you can hear nuances. For high-volume models, the developers strive to beat these limits to partially clear: For quiet sounds noble and puts even a small car in the direction of subjective upper class. "But with cars like a GTI, or even an R-model, we irritate the limits full» says Schmidetzki.

can make only the volume but not of it, however, restricts Pfafflin: "According to everyone, nice contrast, not all sounds." Setting the tone were ignited in the first place, the engine and exhaust system itself: After how many injections as a diesel, how much fuel / air mixture is blown into the combustion chambers of a V6 and the pistons have to travel that way - all that determines the timbre as well as length and diameter of the exhaust system and their pots. The so often quoted tailpipe but has nothing to do Schmidetzki says: "There can let off steam only designers."

In addition to these so-called passive variables, there are a range of active measures for sound tuning, ranging from valves in the air flow to pneumatic valves in the exhaust system, as they are about in the silencers of the Maserati Gran Turismo S used.

What influence can have the electronics, shown by the example of the Mercedes SLK, which has received a facelift in 2008 with the so-called sports engine. The six-cylinder sporty looks but not only because of the higher performance, but also by "a deliberately powerful sports engine acoustics" with strikingly emotional sound design decelerates, says Mercedes. In plain language: The six sounds tough and a little louder than before. And on top of the engine blows when switching back additional fuel into the cylinder, because this blipping sounds a little race track.

Sounds like a car from the outside, but only one side of the coin, restricts VW Schmidetzki developer: "Just as important is the sound in the interior." Where the legislature does not prescribe them, the engineers have a larger playing field - and benefit from them. It is conceivable, for example, the so-called fire wall, so the dividing wall between the engine and interior, electronic stimulating as the membrane of a loudspeaker. "In principle, one could also even" import songs, says Schmidetzki. But instead Madonna roars on this channel, only the engine.

Even with the attention of the Porsche sound developers is at least partially on the interior. must feel, "The driver not only acceleration, but can also hear, that he experienced as pleasure," says developer Pfafflin. No wonder the intake system of the Boxster directly behind the driver's door or the air filter of the Carrera was open to the interior out. "The driver has the engine literally better in the ear."

The fact that the sound designer for the car manufacturers with the advent of electric cars could be inactive, is hardly to be feared. Although electric motors run really silent, and for many customers makes that what the appeal of these cars. But his job at Porsche developers Pfafflin therefore afraid not, "These are new challenges and technologies on which we make our already mind. One thing is certain: even an electric Porsche we would give his own unique sound. "

The fighter jet of the little man

The fighter jet of the little man

Since 1973, there is him. And so far, the Lancer was a very brave and boring sedan with a notchback. But now, the Mitsubishi is combative: The new Lancer is served as "Jetfighter".

For example, while the martial Audi front grill of his current car fleet rather innocuous "single-frame has dubbed" the Japanese say the Mitsubishi Lancer from a "Jetfighter" front-view review.

The fighters from Nippon to make, especially in the lower middle class booty. When will "wolf in wolf's clothing, Mitsubishi's European chief Daniel Nacar said at the presentation, it is expected that a" capture rate "of 50 percent - every second Lancer buyers so you get hold of the competition.

According to Mitsubishi's dynamic martial and designers from the hotel's European Design Centre near Frankfurt in Trebur the new generation of models have marked the five-seat "sports sedan".

One of the most distinctive features include the Japanese, because even "the Jetfighter-front" with obliquely tapered nose sharks and large, trapezoidal grille. There are also muscular flanks and pinched-looking front headlights.

Incorrigible whiners will form in the folding of the bonnet hints at the formal language of Volvo. And feel through the narrow, horizontal taillights reminiscent of the Alfa 159th At Mitsubishi we speak rather of the "wedge-shaped waistline," "short body overhangs" and "a powerful short tail." Unity should prevail in all, at least in the conclusion that the new Mitsubishi Lancer is the sportiest and most striking of the produced series for 35 years.

And the most comfortable. With a length of 4.57 meters, it is almost up to the scale of resources such as the Toyota Avensis graders. The 2.64-meter wheelbase not only provide short overhangs of the body but also for a decent space inside.

Even the back is still enough room for adult Central Europeans - even with front seats pushed back. The offer, moreover, a decent side support. Only the 400-liter trunk is for the vehicle category was somewhat more concise.

The interior itself appears quite high quality - but seems a bit cautious because of the instrumentation a little bad modest. One can also see the positive: The Lancer is easy to use and intuitive. The necessary switches and displays are all available - and where they belong. A functional cockpit without unnecessary frills.

And as usual for Mitsubishi, well processed. A few more trays you would probably want more. And just as easily as the rest-to-use navigation system. Just the search for the demolition button for guidance is the lively guessing game.

Initially, the new Lancer is available in Germany with two units to choose from: a 1.8-liter gasoline engine and a 2.0-liter diesel. Is from the VW and despite the harsh, especially in cold run something and dusty total pump-injector technology but certainly the better choice. He will, of which one is convinced at Mitsubishi in Europe of the volume engine until it is expected to be replaced in 2009 own a Mitsubishi diesel with common rail technology.

With its 140 bhp, the ignition is not a race engine drives, the 1.5-ton Lancer but moving quite fast - even at low engine speeds. It also has the beefy torque of 310 Newton meters of its share, which lies at 1750 revolutions per minute.

The sprint from standstill to 100 km creates the diesel Lancer in 9.6 seconds - only a split more than a comparable BMW 318d strong and heavy. The top speed is achieved at 207 mph.

The consumption is officially at 6.1 liters per 100 km. This is not just a little comparison in the class - the corresponding motorized VW Golf TDI is officially at 5.4 liters of diesel, the 318d even with 4.7 liters. A particulate filter is standard equipment.

Specific value have put the Japanese on the European coordination of the suspension - and with success. It's comfortable enough cushion on one side to make the Lancer a long-distance touring car. But ever so tightly that the sporty driving potential fulfilled the promises of external appearance.

He is consistently good-natured even when it comes to something snappier curves - only with a lot of tuition forces to the rear of a light fawn and the tires to an indignant squeak. To great exuberance sets the electronic down early. The precise steering also helps with there. The six-speed manual transmission is well matched to the engine and can be accurately, quickly and switch to a sedan quite crisp.

The diesel (140 hp) at a price of € 21 490 up available, the gasoline engine with 143 horsepower from 19 250 €. That is quite cheap - especially since even in the basic facilities, "Invite" neatly with what has been hineingepackt.

The competitors are usually more expensive way. The VW Jetta costs about the same practical diesel at least € 25 550, and even the Golf 2.0 TDI is still a few hundred euros more expensive. Already in the pipeline is a sedan version of the Lancer, which will follow in the autumn of next year.

Cebit 2000: The Chancellor gets SMS

What is now the iPad was "skeye.pad at Cebit ten years ago:" But the so-called flopped Research Panel inspiron 1521 battery. A similar fate befell other alleged innovation.

iPad The computer screen will enforce the electronics giant Apple in the coming months a new device category in the market. But the idea of a "tablet computer" without a hardware keyboard is not really new. Ten years on the computer fair Cebit 2000, the company presented Hoeft & Wessel from Hanover, a "Research Panel", which came very close to the concept of the iPad. should "skeye.pad with the" you can use a wireless connection or the wireless standard DECT wireless surf the internet.

The "Research Panel" from Hanover, but then received a Best of CeBIT Award of the journal chip. In line for the mass market the device, however, was never built. The developers at Hoeft & Wessel built the prototypes later, various special rugged mobile devices, which are today such as the Yellow inspiron 1720 battery Angels of the ADAC in use or transport companies in the logistics management of their truck to help. The screens of the ticket machines in the DB eventually go back to the Research Panel Development in Hanover.

Because of the then forthcoming World Expo 2000, CeBIT was a decade ago not to the traditional part-time instead, but already in February. The industry had just successfully completed the Year 2000 problem and mastered before bursting confidence. The feared chaos to the critical date change did not materialize. Trade and Industry looked optimistically forward. This was then reflected in the fair: More than 750,000 visitors came despite the lousy weather to Cebit 2000th Many of the 7800 exhibitors came from that time with full order books and sales projections best from Hannover.

The then Chancellor Gerhard Schröder (SPD) promised to open the high-tech show, modeled after the United States a sort of "Green Card introduce." This should programmers, database specialists and other computer experts from countries outside the European Union and to get a temporary work permit in Germany. About the "crash program to meet the need for IT specialists" came in the years to 20,000 IT professionals in Germany. The scheme ran from late 2004 and was replaced by a new immigration law, are also preferred by IT professionals at the residence in relation to other migrant workers from outside Europe.

Schröder had at that time the economic importance of the skills shortages identified. In contrast to his successor at the Federal Chancellery Schröder had privately so his troubles with communication technology. At Cebit 2000, left the Chancellor by the then head of AOL Europe, Andreas Schmidt shows how to send a short message with the phone. The Chancellor is here! I like dell laptops with dell battery and adapter. He gets just said SMS, but knows the not yet anyway, "said one observer of the scene at that time.

The AOL online service provided on the Cebit 2000 with Deutsche Telekom in a race to bring the German schools to the Internet. Ten years later, AOL has withdrawn after a series of failures from the German market.

At that time, but also looked for AOL’s future still bright. A year before the bursting of the Internet bubble were touted at the Cebit 2000 nor as visionary technology, which today are more smiles. One could admire in the halls a "computer to put on," at the micro-computer and put batteries barely visible in the pockets of a thick, shiny silver vest. This device should be used as a mobile translator for city tours.

Strange fantasies also included a Bluetooth wireless technology, which today is lenovo battery used mainly in mobile phones and wireless headphones. Jörg Gleisner from the telecom company Ericsson praised at the time the benefits of information technology in this way: "You can regulate the cell phone from the kitchen the Volume on the TV or from work the washing machine on." The mobile phone as a remote control for delicate fabrics, but then he on the market is not really taken off.

Cisco brings home router series "valet" in the "flip" style

First, there are two models with different wireless coverage for 100 or 150 dollars. A USB stick for PCs will copy the settings from the router. The concept comes from Pure-Digital-Team.

Minimalist wireless router Valet (Image: Cisco)

Cisco has transferred the principle of his camera "flip" on Wi-Fi router. The result is a new series called "Valet" with a simple design and simple operation. First, there is two models that differ by the velocity of the cable network ports and range: Valet (four Fast Ethernet ports), and Valet Plus (four gigabit Ethernet ports, range amplifier).

The simplification means that there is little choice – for example between WLAN standards. Cisco relies on IEEE 802.11n, which is backward compatible with 11b and 11g. The administration will have a dashboard on which the network devices to add sony vgp-bps9 battery. There are also a simple control system that: a blacklist of prohibited sites, and a time-dependent block for specific hosts.

To set up a valet model, only three steps are necessary. Cisco also offers a wireless stick, which is known as the Valet Connector. If you close it via USB to the router, it will copy the network settings to access from a PC.

The Flip camera has a record button and a USB port, but not much more. The user can edit his video and just upload it to Youtube. When they appeared before three years they had placed the U.S. market for video cameras on the head. Cisco bought in the wake of the Pure Digital camera lenovo thinkpad x41 battery manufacturers for $ 590,000,000. The Valet routers are the first product that the team from Pure Digital, under the umbrella of Cisco developed.

The Valet will cost about $ 100, plus the $ 150 model. For USB WLAN-Stick Connector, you pay $ 80. Plans for the German market, Cisco has not yet announced.

The analysts at DisplaySearch expect higher 2010 sales and revenues. The conversion to digital TV boosts demand. LED backlight and 3D TV to give additional impetus.

DisplaySearch analysts see a recovery in the market for LCD TVs. In 2010 not only the number of TVs sold in 2009 to climb dell inspiron 15 battery, and revenue there will be growth. The experts predict Quarterly Global TV Shipment and Forecast report.

Already in the third quarter of 2009 increased the sales of LCD televisions – for the first time in a year. Because of this upward movement, the analysts suggest that sales in the first quarter of 2010 could be better than in the first quarter of 2009. That would be the first increase in six quarters.

The sales of TV sets is expected to rise, according to DisplaySearch 2010 by six percent to 218 million units. 2009 there were 205 million. But 170 million LCD TVs next year would go over the counter, compared 140.5 million this year.

Study: LCD TVs will overcome the crisis in 2010 B

The increased sales thanks to the producers in particular the paragraph North America, Japan and Western Europe. But also in new markets, there is demand for flat-screen devices.
