uSolo FX Media player review
This is a picture of a digital media player. It doesn't look quite like an iPod, though, does it? No hint of Zune here either, we don't think. In fact, it looks a lot like a CDJ unit, and that's for a reason: it acts just like a physical media-loving digital disc jockey's unit, but without the 5-inch slot at the front. Instead, it's got USB and SD ports up top. If you're a DJ, you might be familiar with the rest: navigate your folders to find a song, cue it up with the jog wheel, and mix it up. DJ Tech, which started operations in the US just last year, has the uSolo FX as its flagship unit -- does it compare to its competition from giants like Pioneer and Numark? Read on to find out!

We can't say we're pleased that camera makers still haven't called an armistice in their megapixel war, but a race for the speediest memory card is one battle we can get behind. Delkin says its 32GB Elite 633 SDHC is the fastest in the world, with 80MBps and 95MBps write and read speeds, respectively, handily trumping Sony's new Memory Sticks that so recently impressed us. This card's ideal for people who shoot gobs of 1080p video, 3D movies, and high-resolution shots coupled with RAW files, but with a price of $440, it's only worth it for pros. And debutants.

A report commissioned by the World Bank's infoDev unit has cast fresh light on one of the more fascinating aspects of our brave new interconnected world: the virtual economy. The "third-party gaming services industry" -- where wealthy but impatient players have someone else grind away at online games for them in exchange for monetary reward -- is one of the focal points of the study, chiefly owing to it having generated revenues in the region of $3 billion in 2009 and now serving as the primary source of income for an estimated 100,000 young folks, primarily in countries like China and Vietnam. What's encouraging about these findings is that most of the revenue from such transactions ends up in the country where the virtual value is produced, which contrasts starkly with some of the more traditional international markets, such as that for coffee beans, where the study estimates only $5.5 billion of the $70 billion annual market value ever makes it back to the producing country. The research also takes an intriguing look at the emerging phenomenon of microwork, which consists of having unskilled workers doing the web's version of menial work -- checking images, transcribing bits of text, bumping up Facebook Likes (naughty!), etc. -- and could also lead to more employment opportunities for people in poorer nations. To get better acquainted with the details, check the links below or click past the break.

With over 300,000 devices activated per day, Android's clearly firing on all cylinders from a consumer standpoint, but much like the famed Cheez-It wheel, some would argue that the OS isn't quite mature enough for unabashed enterprise use. Being a corporation itself, El Goog's obviously been toiling around the clock to change that, and it's taking three major strides today. An updated version of its Google Apps Device Policy enables employees to secure a lost or stolen Android 2.2+ device by locating it on a map, ringing the device, and resetting the device PIN or password remotely via the new My Devices website. Furthermore, Apps admins now have an option in the control panel to "Encrypt Data on Device," which will now include requiring encrypted storage on Android 3.0 tablets. Finally, Google Apps Lookup is acting as a type of internal blackbook, allowing users to easily sift through colleagues and contact them through one form or another. So... hired?

Google Registers A Bunch Of Music And Cloud Related Domain Names
Earlier this week, Google registered a slew of .com domain names related to music and clouds.
A tipster points out that the Internet company registered names like GoogleBass.com, GoogleAlto.com, GoogleSoprano and GoogleTenor.com along with GoogleNebula.com, GoogleThunder.com and GoogleLightning.com.
None of them resolve to an actual website (at least not yet), but WHOIS searches reveal they were all registered by Google last Wednesday.
Alto, bass, soprano and tenor are of course well-known human singing voice types (although, technically, alto is not a voice type but in fact a “designated vocal line in choral music based on vocal range”), and lightning, thunder and nebula all have something to do with clouds (nebula is Latin for ‘cloud’).’).
This doesn’t mean anything, but I thought it’d be fun noting the domain name registrations because of Google’s imminent introduction of a cloud-based music service, ya know.
A TechCrunch t-shirt if you can find more domain names Google registered on April 6.

The ultimate sin would be if a Canon-user bought the oldest-surviving Nikon camera (from 1948) at auction. As bidding starts at 70,000 Euros (around $100,000), you'd have to really want that slice of photography history. [Nikon-Rumors via PetaPixel] More »

It would be overwhelming to pick for the finest printer for your business. With so many brands and features of the commercial printers that are offered in the market nowadays, purchasing a printer cab be a challenging mission. To screen the numerous options, let me hand you some factors to analyze before you procure your office's commercial printer. But let me first hand you a background on what printers are.
There are basically two kinds of printers: The impact and the non-impact. The former works by literally banging its metal pins to the ink ribbon to make an output. Non-impact printers on the other hand, only send out an ink to print which is soundless. Nowadays, people use the non-impact printers or in its popular type, the laser and the ink jet printers .
Cost
Now that you the types of printer, let's move to the issue of cost.
Laser printers are more high-priced than ink jets. Approximately, color inkjet printers cost $35 to $3,000 while color laser printers are estimated at $350 to $6,000 dollars. Laser printers, as built for bigger work volumes, cost steep in terms of toner replacement. A normal laser toner can print thousands more pages compared to inkjet cartridges. Although inkjet cartridges cost lesser than laser toners, the latter have a lower price per page value which cost around three to four times cheaper than inkjet prints per page.
Printing Speed
Efficient office work requires speed. Laser printers produces output with a relatively higher speed than the ink jet as they are designed to work on huge volume of printing loads. Their place is in the business and office condition's. Laser printers are known to be the fastest printers available in the market today. They can print about 200 pages with monochromic or single-colored ink per minute . Ink jet printers on the other hand are slower at speed.
You also have to study network features and its printing speed. Some printers can be shared on a network so that more than one user can print at the same time. High-end laser printers ordinarily have this feature and they cost more, but is practical for you.
Output Quality
Aside from PPM, check also on the DPI or the dots per inch capacity of the printer. It determines the value of printing, so the higher the DPI, the clearer an output is produced.
Despite the numerous advantages of laser printers than ink jet, the latter produces more quality output in terms of the details of the print . They can print sharper texts for they have no blurry edges. They also do well in colored images and large graphics, finer than laser. However ink jets only allows water-sensitive ink. There is a high risk that the output will be destroyed when water drops on it.
Further, laser printers don't require special kind of papers when printing not like ink jet.. Ink jet printers's ink cannot be absorbed easily by other papers so if you try putting incompatible papers, you will just damage the printing.
Single Function or Multifunction
Determine also if your office needs other equipment like scanner, fax or copier because there are printers now who can include all these functions into one called multi-function machines. Majority businesses nowadays preferred multi-function printers for the reason that they save on capital and office space. Seemingly, single-function printers become almost obsolete in the business scene.
Typically multifunction printers are preferred by those people who have small businesses. This is because of the savings they can get from not buying other devices such as fax and scanner. However, there is a chance that if one of the other functions break down, the entire device cannot be used.
Now that you have gone through the four consideration, you are now ready to accept the task of choosing your finest business printer. Having considered these factors, the former hard task will come simple and easy.
