Android operating system started a whole new market of smart phones, earlier people who bought smart phones had limited choices of sets because those phones had operating system owned by a single brand and only that brand can use that OS, for example Blackberry and Nokia used their own OS and would never allow any other cell phone maker to use their OS. With the release of Android which is an open source operating system allowed any cell phone manufacturer to use the OS and develop smart phone. Result is now we see so many smart phones in market but since hardware requirement of this OS is quite demanding, these smart phones are priced quite high. Email marketing by online shopping stores tempt us to buy these devices by sending mouth watering images of these gadgets but sure with a price tag that will make most of us budget go for a toss.

Hummin HTPC

Hummin 3.03′s is one hot new HTPC in the market launched recently at BERLIN, Germany. Most unique characteristic is in the Finger VU 1016W wireless monitor. FingerView 1016W monitor ables users to control PC with wireless mouse as if one were really using the keyboard and mouse in one’s own living room, through Wireless USB technology based on Ultra Wide Band technology. The new wireless monitor and its functions are appealing in that it solved the 2 problems of the prior HTPC. The first problem was that you had to turn on the TV to choose music when using a media player PC, Dybex progaram, etc, and the second problem was that you had to use a keyboard and mouse to perfectly monitor the PC in the living room.

Soundgraph has been providing remote controls for controlling the PC used in the living room, but you still had to use the keyboard and mouse for web searching or downloading media files, etc.
