kindle fire

Amazon is working hard to create the next generation of Kindle Fire, or the Kindle Fire in the event of confirmation of what we saw yesterday. Apparently rumors that when the successor of Fire hits the market, the original model will be low in cost that will make even cheaper than the Nexus 7 from Google . In this form, Amazon would be following in the footsteps of Apple when the company lowered the price of its iPhone and the iPad 2 after the start of the new models.
Kindle is expected to pass Fire cost $ 170 U.S. dollars, becoming one of the tablets cheaper and more popular in the world. This in part will help to give more competition to the Nexus 7, which costs $ 200.
We have to wait a couple of months to see what happens.

Galaxy Orange Samsung S3 with all options prices from zero euro

 http://i.imgur.com/4oJUT.jpg

Looking at different options pages to buy a Samsung Galaxy S3 (16 GB) free has become clear that for less than 590 euros is hard to find. You'll probably find discounts and who does the FNAC if purchased by Internet or applying Movistar accumulated points but the only option to get it for little or no money is to hire a data plan like those offered by Orange .

If you go to the page web of Orange and pick the Galaxy Samsung S3 with portability from contract, the terminal you can go between 199 and 479 euros . The first price is achieved if the rate contracts Dolphin 79, 59 or 40, and the second price if you decide on the Squirrel 15. In any case, portability is always cheaper than free, unless you have accumulated many points Movistar or Vodafone. We'll give an example with Movistar . The non-discounted price for the Galaxy S III through this operator is of 637 euros . As you accumulate points and using them to purchase, you are discounting euros. Well, to get it for free would have to raise a whopping 300,000 points.
Free Option: Orange with The Phone House
These alternatives may have told you are not flashy enough so we've gone to The Phone House (TPH), which has its own deals with operators such as Orange. For example, we mentioned that the Squirrel 15, the price of S III contracted directly with Orange is 479 euros and yet stays in TPH 439 euros. This happens with all fees provided that the operator's hire orange through this distributor.

In addition, The Phone House offers an opportunity to acquire the free S3 Galaxy : hiring rate Dolphin 59 and Dolphin 79 (only portability from contract to contract and stay with the operator of 24 months and 18 at the rate selected). Why is this so? Simply because we are hiring rates for more expensive talk and surf Orange. The Dolphin 59 has a monthly fee of 69.62 euros, VAT included, and the Dolphin 79 to 93.22 euros. The first gives you 1,000 minutes per month and 750 MB free for navigation, and the second, 2,000 minutes with 1 GB to browse and 500 free SMS per month.http://i.imgur.com/rRwIB.jpg

So much so that, once again, have revived rumors of an iPhone mini-screen ... between 7 "or 8" would face directly to the new Nexus 7.

Anyway, the Google Nexus 7 has been reduced to its essential components and has obtained a note of reparability of 7 out of 10, better than the Apple iPad but worse than the Amazon Kindle Fire. Of course a $ 200 computer is not as critical as one of almost $ 500.

A mixture of Wii and Kinect want to change the man-machine interaction

 
Another thing is that it succeeds. Because if something we have been taught that betting systems to revolutionize the interaction systems is that their results are not always as good as expected. In this case, the initiative is called Leap Motion and consists of a device that sits in front of a monitor and is able to recognize the hand movements of users to be reflected in the computer without any contact.
Motion Leap can be considered as a remix of that seen in Wii and Kinect. The philosophy is the same as in the other two systems, converting the user's own command and control. The idea is to apply the Motion Leap philosophy navigation on a PC, allowing interaction with its various elements without actually touching the screen or mouse and keyboard.
The device, with a rectangular shape, is situated at the bottom of the screen and the user must place his hands in an elevated position on Leap Motion. According to the creators of the system, have developed a 3D recognition technology with specific software, allowing users a completely new interaction.
Its creators say Leap Motion "is more accurate than a mouse, as reliable as a more sensitive keyboard and a touch screen." In addition, they promise that the system is "200 times more accurate than anything else on the market", which promises much considering the advances in the field of motion recognition from Microsoft has been achieved with Xbox .
The device is about the size of an iPod and connects to the computer through a USB key. From their website they promise that the system is very easy to install, noting that its release is as important "as the first day of the mouse", but simpler because users do not need to learn to use it.
In his video presentation, you can see that Leap Motion to get around various activities and services of a PC in the style of Minority Report. Motion Leap makes virtually simulate the interaction that achieved with touch screens, but without touching.
As for the functions that can be performed, the test shows that Motion Leap shares and as such established pinch the screen to zoom or scroll to make a simple gesture are possible. The system promises high accuracy and can be applied to design programs, video games of all types and billing and office applications or browsing.
This is an innovative, useful for certain activities but perhaps completely for others. Its design and apparent ease of use are its great strengths. The device and can be booked and costs $ 70 (56.3 euros).
