Some things
What a week. First, the training center. I found that the Ncomputing machines were not a good fit. Most of the training we have is on DVD and with the nComputing setup, only one machine has a DVD drive. So we replaced that table with the machines sent from Whitewolf. Unfortunately, we blew three of the [...]

Ask Engadget: Best accessories management solution for cluttered desks?
We know you've got questions, and if you're brave enough to ask the world for answers, here's the outlet to do so. This week's Ask Engadget question is coming to us from Steven, who needs to hit a Spring Cleaning streak in the worst possible way. If you're looking to send in an inquiry of your own, drop us a line at ask [at] engadget [dawt] com.Anyone got a great mechanism for keeping these adapters and cables in some sort of order? We're certain the neat-freaks in attendance would love to hear your input in comments below."I am overwhelmed by power cords and travel chargers and am looking for a good way to organize them until I need them. The top drawer of my desk is no longer cutting it. I've got too many power cables and AC adapters to count. I can't be the only one with this problem. Is there a solution? Thanks in advance!"

Seven45 Studios talks Power Gig details, we go hands-on with its six string guitar peripheral

We had a sit down with the team today at GDC, and besides coming away impressed with the alpha build of the game and the prototype axes we saw, we also learned quite a bit more about their plans than what was revealed in this morning's press release. Just to be exceptionally clear, Seven45 Studios will not only sell their upcoming title as a standalone product, but it will sell a "band bundle" that includes the game, a guitar (plus a strap, picks and an extra set of strings), a drum set and a microphone, the latter two of which are still very early in production and weren't available for us to test. The beat matching setup that gamers have grown used to in Rock Band and Guitar Hero is still there, but most everything else is new; a "chording" addition will allow users to strum actual power chords that match the chords used in the song, giving newbies the ability to actually learn songs as they play the game if they want to. In other words, if users strum the same chords required to succeed in the game but through an amp, they'll be playing the actual song; if you'd rather not learn, you need not have any clue how to play a guitar to enjoy the game. Speaking of which, the bundled guitar (along with extra guitars that are still being sorted in terms of size, material and color) doubles as a legitimate six string by simply depressing the dampening pad beneath the neck, and while it won't match the crisp tone emitted from your Les Paul Custom, the prototype we heard here in San Francisco sounded just fine for a beginner's instrument. We also learned that existing Rock Band and Guitar Hero guitars will work with the Power Gig titles, and Seven45's guitars will work with existing music band games -- not bad!

Wireless power takes another baby step at CES 2010 with Qi standard

Still, the big challenge for Fulton and the WPC is going to be actually shipping a bunch of these products this year -- standards are nice, but without gear in hand they're meaningless, and the rival PowerMat crew has been making a pretty big push of its own. We'll see what happens in the next few months -- and how much has changed at CES 2011. Check a couple videos after the break!

Power Tools By Hitachi – 12 Volt Peak Lithium Tool Series
Hitachi have introduced a new series of a href=http://www.toolsrhere.com target=_blankHitachi 12v/a to their range. The addition of the DS10DFL, a Lithium Ion Driver Drill, an Ion Impact Driver model WH10DFL and a combination kit of the two model KC10DFL. The micro-build of this range of cordless power tools is the main advantage, as they are able to work in to locations where standard power tools will not fit. For such a small package this Hitachi 12 volt Peak range has astonishing power and performance. br /
br /
Hitachis research and development people have thought of the environment by using Lithium Ion 1.5Ah HXP batteries. With standard batteries there is a constant power loss as soon as the power tool is started, however with the Lithium Ion batteries a constant and stable power delivery is available from each charge cycle. The battery charger boasts a patented electronic design that will stop overheating and loss of power, this not only lengthens the life if the Lithium Ion battery but also saves the operator from having to purchase expensive replacement batteries.br /
br /
The trigger on both of these power tools is both responsive and variable ensuring perfect power and speed control throughout its application. Underneath the chuck are light emitting diodes or LEDs, these provide back-up illumination of the work area during use. The LEDs are activated by slight pressure on the trigger before the chuck starts to rotate, this is a great feature for when aligning the power tool to the work surface. Both 12V Peak models are designed in such a way that they will stand on the battery base unlike in other designs when the tool has to be placed on its side which can be very inconvenient.br /
br /
The WH10DFL 12V Lithium Ion Mini- Impact Driver is imposingly lightweight at 2.2 lbs and compact at lower than 6” in length. With 840 inch/pounds of converting torque (much more than any cordless driver drill) and having a fast change 1/4 inch hex chuck that provides childlike bit replacements, its the ideal impact driver for when the job gets rough, such that driving self-tapping masonry anchors into solid brick or block, or large fastening application with lag bolts. Because the impedance of the load increases, the impact execution is engaged to greatly increase torque to power through and through the most difficult tasks.br /
br /
The KC10DFL 12V, 2-Piece Mini- Combination Kit puts the DS10DFL 12V Peak Lithium Ion Micro Driver Drill and the WH10DFL 12V Peak Lithium Ion Micro Impact Driver described above for a complete 12V Peak cordless solution handily boxed together.br /
br /
Finally a href=http://www.toolsrhere.com target=_blankHitachi 12 volt Peak cordless micro-size power tool/a ten year warranty covers the tool and the Lithium Ion battery is covered by their two year warranty. So this makes for one special tool.br /
