Nexus Takes The “Click” Out Of The Computer Mouse

The clicking sound we hear when we press a mouse button is part of the device’s switching mechanism, that has also become a kind of audible comfort cushion for computer users. However, Dutch component manufacturer Nexus believes that in these days of notebook trackpads and tablet touchscreens, we no longer need the audible confirmation that a requested action has been performed – we can see it onscreen. The company has now discovered some silent switching technology and installed into a couple of its input peripherals, so that they operate without so much as a squeak.

First to receive the patented technology was a two-button (plus a scroll wheel) notebook mouse named the sm7000. Available in rubberized black or glossy white, the 3.85 x 2.75 x 1.45-inch (9.8 x 7.0 x 3.7-cm) optical device benefits from a switch for swapping between 1000 and 1600 dpi resolution, an auto-power-save mode, and a compartment inside the mouse to store a nano receiver when in transit. The device uses 2.4GHz wireless technology to pair with the receiver when it’s plugged into a USB port on a laptop or computer.

The sm7000 is available now for a suggested retail of US$29.95.

Nexus has now announced that a bigger brother is to join the silent team, named the sm8000. It operates using the same wireless technology, but sports five buttons – all kept quiet by the same silent switching technology as the notebook mouse. This 4.6 x 2.99 x 1.65-inch (11.7 x 7.6 x 4.2-cm) model runs on a couple of AAA batteries. Nexus has told us that it will be available in the U.S. in the next couple of weeks, with pricing yet to be announced

Name That Movie

“Hey, I started out mopping the floor just like you guys. But now… now I’m washing lettuce. Soon I’ll be on fries; then the grill. And pretty soon, I’ll make assistant manager, and that’s when the big bucks start rolling in.”

Find Q3030 with yours today!  A very popular feature of Google TV to use your phone as a remote control. They released the Android version of the Google TV Remote app in December and the app is now available for iPhones, iPads, and iPods running iOS 3 or higher. So, why would you want to use your phone as a remote control?

*Your phone improves standard TV remote activities like changing channels or accessing your DVR. I love using it at night, because the back light means I can see all the buttons in the dark and the buttons are easy to find. Watch

*You can also interact with your TV in ways you never have before. For instance, try using the voice search to find your favorite shows and movies just by speaking into your phone. There should be less fighting over the remote, too, since multiple phones can work as remotes at the same time—you just need to agree on what to watch!

The Transparent CPT002 Aston Martin Concept Phone from Mobiado

British car maker Aston Martin is looking to leverage its luxury brand into the world of consumer electronics by teaming up with Canadian mobile phone manufacturer Mobiado to produce a line of high-end handsets to be launched in May of this year. Until then, the company has provided a tantalizing peek at possible future designs with the CPT002 Aston Martin Concept Phone that takes the ‘slab of glass’ design of many current smartphones to the next level. With a solid sapphire crystal capacitive touchscreen, the CPT002 is completely transparent.

To allow the screen of the CPT002 to be transparent, Mobiado has incorporated the battery, electronics and SIM card into the sides of the device, which are crafted from platinum. The only things blocking the view when looking through the phone when it’s in standby are the Aston Martin and Mobiado logos, what appear to be battery and signal strength indicators along the top and a series of dots along the bottom that appear similar to the dots on the iPhone that let you know which screen you’re on – although it’s not ‘clear’ whether that’s actually what they are.

A transparent touchscreen has already popped up on LG’s GD900 mobile phone, but only in the form of a touchpad that displays the phone’s number pad. Unfortunately, we’re going to have to wait a bit longer for a phone with a transparent full touchscreen display with Mobiado’s upcoming range not sporting a phone with such a design. However, other features of the CPT002 Concept Phone that are designed to integrate with an Aston Martin vehicle are more of a possibility.
