Toshiba's ApriPoko Robot

Toshiba's new robot pal is simply a voice-operated universal infrared remote control, heavy on Cuteness.

He then waves his arm and infrared transmitter bing, goes on the TV screen. He even equipped with a camera to identify users, presumably to learn their habits. For now, only on R & D demonstration device, and is limited to simple commands. We hope that we have a right to expect in this technology to its consumer gadgets on the way soon.

nVidia GeForce 9700M, 9800M Details Surface

It is only to be expected that, having launched the GeForce 260 GTX and GeForce 280 GTX nVidia that will no longer to update their mobile GPUs. Especially taking into account the many previous-generation chips are quite susceptible to damage. If Notebook Italia sources are correct (in our experience thay usually are), these details are already out.

Five new graphics chips look set to roll, and it appears that is not a replacement for each card currently on offer 8000M-series with the free quickly.

The cards line up with specs as follows:

9700M GT
32 shaders
625MHz core clock
1,550MHz shader clock
128-bit Memory interface
800MHz memory clock

9700M GTS
48shaders
530MHz core clock
1,325MHz shader clock
256-bit Memory interface
800MHz memory clock

9800M GTS
64 shaders
600MHz core clock
1,500MHz shader clock
256-bit Memory interface
800MHz memory clock

9800M GT
96 shaders
500MHz core clock
1,250MHz shader clock
256-bit Memory interface
800MHz memory clock

9800M GTX
112 shaders
500MHz core clock
1,250MHz shader clock
256-bit Memory interface
800MHz memory clock

Going only on paper, look for a new range of set the trend to close the gap between desktop and mobile performance. In the 9800M GTX is a very 8800 GT on spec-spec comparison, although undoubtedly thermal restrictions on the notebook model, without doubt, are much lower.

nVidia will almost certainly as soon as possible GPUs official, and usually suspected of containing them will announce in due time.

Navigon 2100 Sat-Nav

Always glad when Underdog wins. This is the beauty of watching sports, especially football in the FA Cup - occasionally, just occasionally, a team of part timers come a long nose and bloodies one of the Premiership big boys. Take Liverpool last year, when v Havant & Waterlooville, everyone said "Havant who?" and expected the Reds to run out of easy winners. They did not, in the end, but not before the fright of their lives. Havant took the lead twice in the first half, will be 1-0 by Richard Pacquette header pegged back before, and then edging to the front again thanks to Alfie Potter before eventually losing 5-2. What did recently with Navigon 2110 Max. With excellent mapping engine, just a wonderful tool to assist belt and all-round excellence, bloodied nose with TomTom's So-navs to the extent that we felt it deserved Recommended award. Is it cheaper to do the same 2100?

In 2100 is mainly in the lower part of the Navigon. Maps are regional - only the United Kingdom and Ireland included, instead of Europe as a whole from 2110 Max - and the screen is much smaller compared to 3.5in Max 4.3in, 2110. The main thing missing from the cheaper units, however, is a great Lane Assistant Pro. This means that no small lane road aid, which is a shame, but it's still standard belt aid, which works well, with an indication of which should be taken lanes on motorways and main roads.

Address entry is too fiddlier. Amazingly, when entering addresses, the keyboard takes only half the small screen, with different elements you have to fill in the address displayed on the left side. It is rather inefficient use of screen real estate and makes entering addresses to be much more difficult than it should. In 2110 Max had a full-screen, keyboard and 2100 will still benefit from the same approach.

It is immediately clear, then, that the Navigon 2100 is not quite accomplished in the sat-nav that in 2110 Max. But start using it and you will discover there is more than one might have expected. It looks as good as its bigger brother, but all clad in shiny black plastic and slips into your pocket much easier for the smaller screen. A Navigon 2100 retains Navigon's trademark Reality View, which displays static "realistic" image of the main motorway junctions before the arrival on them. I earlier this off, though, as you know what it looks vaguely crossing highways.
