Email Anywhere Without Booting
Have you ever imagined yourself checking your latest email while in a car, a meeting, in elevators or anywhere else? If yes, then let it be….
A laptop from ASUSTek Computer Inc. has a 2.5-inch secondary liquid crystal display that allows people to check recent e-mails, photos, videos and calendar items using the “SideShow” feature of Microsoft Corp.’s latest operating system, Windows Vista.
The display module can be programmed to sync up with selected data on the computer regularly. Information is viewable even when the computer is off.
With an external display of 1 gigabyte flash memory while using little power, this one lasts 50 hours before you’ll need that charger again.
This will cost around $1799 up to $1899 and will be released in the market right after vista’s consumer launch on the end of the month.
