Ever wish your computer was just a bit more epic, or that that it would show a bit more camaraderie? After all, the two of you spend hours upon hours together surfing JAMM.mobi and yet when you walk away it’s as if your computer doesn’t even notice you’re gone. There are already products out there that can remotely switch your screen or computer off based on your proximity, but none of them have a name as cool as “Phoenix Freeze”.

New Zune For June???

Well, there has just been a flurry of rumors pertaining to the new Zune becoming available in June.  Before I get to the news, I think MS should release all Zune products in June.  Zune in June….easy to remember and catchy.  Anyway, onto the speculation.  Originally, it was reported that someone from the Office 2010 team indicated on Twitter that “June 2009 will be an important month for Zune lovers”, and for people to avoid buying a Palm Pre or iPhone. Hearing that statement immediately makes me think of the much wanted, but much denied Zune Phone.  What else can one assume from that information? Well, MS spokesperson Brian Seitz said that the Twitter account was not an official MS Office 2010 account, and to not put much stock in the rumors.  Engadget Mobile did confirm that the account was indeed fake. However, when it comes right down to it, what do you really believe?  The guy who twittered admitted it was a hoax, but was it really just a cover-up by MS.  We DO KNOW that there will be new Zune hardware released sometime in 2009.  The rumored specs for the new Zune HD include: AMOLED touchscreen, HDMI output and either 16GB/32GB of storage.  I hope those specs are true with the 32GB of storage.  I guess for the time being it will just be wait and see.  Until the next rumor…maybe tomorrow???

Della, Dells Female Initiative ???

dellaDell, in it’s all encompassing wisdom has decided to market NetBooks in a new fashion, directly at women. Apparently the female of the species is only now becoming aware of devices such as the NetBook, and Dell wants to  take advantage of that new found fact! Hence their new website, Della…

My first impression, was Dell are marketing fashion devices, accessories, that are visually pleasing, and compliment personal style. Most of us personalise our devices, in many ways, cases, covers screen protectors, software etc; and I have to say delving into the site I did like a lot of the graphical customisation for devices.  Fashion is  important to all, effective mobile computing is also as important. Is it though, demeaning to market the same devices, differently to women, than you do to men?
