“The new Toughpower Grand power supply series from Thermaltake has 80 Plus Gold certification, modular cabling system, and single +12 V rail. So far only two models have been released, 650 W and 750 W. Let’s see if the 750 W model is a good buy.”

Flip UltraHD (Third Generation) Review
September 29, 2010 by t-break News
Filed under Web News
“As with all pocket camcorders, Flip video quality suffers when compared to full-sized models, a result mostly of lower-cost image processing chips, cheap lenses and footage that shakes like a bridegroom hearing the wedding march – the result of ineffective image stabilization. Flip has tried to address both the quality and jitter problems with its latest UltraHD, the UltraHD 3, but has both succeeded and failed in improving the world’s bestselling camcorder.”

Antec LanBoy Air Case Review
September 29, 2010 by t-break News
Filed under Web News
“The LanBoy Air is without a doubt one of the most unique case we’ve ever seen, being completely meshed to improve air flow and highly customizable. This is not the first time Antec is trying to improve airflow: two years ago they released a completely open case, the Skeleton. On the Skeleton, however, as you computer components are completely exposed, you may damage your components by accident. Is the LanBoy Air the solution all hard-core enthusiasts were looking for? Let’s see. The LanBoy Air is currently available in two colors, blue or yellow. We reviewed the blue version.”

USB Portable Media Player w/Card Reader

” Today for review I’ve got another product from our friends at Geeks.com. It’s a portable media player that can use either SD cards or USB storage devices like flash drives or hard drives. It’s generic or no-name basically and it’s very inexpensive coming in at about $25, but it works, and I guess that’s what counts right?”

OCZ Ibis High Speed Data Link (HSDL) 240GB SSD Review
September 29, 2010 by t-break News
Filed under Web News
Quote: “This extension passes via the HSDL cable to the device – in
this case the OCZ Ibis we are looking at today. Previous RAID enabled
SSD’s had to pass through RAID chips via SATA, while the Ibis is able
to contain a bona-fide PCIe RAID solution. This is significant as
solutions for the former always hit a brick wall on ultimate IOPS
performance, as they do not support passing on Comamnd Queueing -
vital to high IO’s in a RAID configuration. Another point of interest
is that the above configuration is the simplest possible with HSDL, as
it’s meant to scale much further.”

“On TestFreaks we’ve reviewed a few different Cirago media players and they’ve been fairly decent products. Today I’ve got their latest one called the CiragoTV Platinum CMC3000 which is the culmination of their work on media centers basically. It combines the best of the others they’ve produced into one excellent product. The interface has been redesigned and it’s much easier to use allowing for a media player that anyone can understand and utilize to it’s fullest. It has features like the ability to record, play from USB devices or even memory cards and there’s even a built-in torrent client. ”

SimpliSafe Security System Review
September 29, 2010 by t-break News
Filed under Web News
” Today for review I’ve got a great product to help protect you and yours from a company called SimpliSafe. It’s an alarm system yes, but it’s unique in that it doesn’t use phone lines but cellular signals, so someone can’t cut the line when it tries to call for help. The system is made to be portable and you own it, you don’t rent it like you do with some other security companies. One of the best features about this system is the price, actually two prices. You’ll pay for the system, it’s relatively inexpensive and you own it forever, but if you want police dispatch you’ll need to pay as monthly fee as well that’s only $14.99. That price is well below what other companies charge on a monthly basis. SimpliSiafe sent me over what they call their Apartment Security System, but it of course can be used for your home as well, so let’s get into this already…”

iPhone 4 completely sold out from carriers
September 28, 2010 by Mufaddal Fakhruddin
Filed under Apple, News
Aha, wait – before you pack your wallet, keys, and other assortment of things that can get you faster to your nearest Etisalat or du booth to get yourself an iPhone 4 – wait. They have been completely sold out.
du has already closed subscriptions on their site, and now we have learnt that Etisalat is out of Apple’s shiny device as well. Our editor-in-chief Abbas Ali visited and called the booths at Mall of the Emirates, Ibn Batutta and others, and was turned away with the unfortunate news. However, Etisalat said it will be restocking units over the weekend.
As we see it, the only way to secure an iPhone 4 is to hound the carriers every hour on Friday and Saturday. Only the fittest shall survive.

The DataTraveler Ultimate 3.0 has read speeds of 80MB/sec and 60MB/sec for writes when using USB 3.0 and 30MB/sec for both read and write operating on a USB 2.0 connection.
