I cannot wait until I get my new lightspeed zulu headset. I ordered it on line a few days ago and am waiting for it to arrive today. I have been promising myself a new one for ages and at last I have managed to get hold of one. It is so exciting! I suppose my original headset is fine really but I have heard so many good things about lightspeed aviation lately, that I decided it was about time I tried one out for myself. I have also been able to put my old one by as a spare. I often read about the lightspeed zulu products and they always seem to get really good reviews and so I think it is about time I found out whether the reviewers were right or not. I have not really been able to justify buying one before because my current headset still works, but I was really lucky and won a small amount of money on the lotto and decided that it was a sign that I should indulge and so I have done! I just wish that it would hurry up and be delivered so that I can have a go with it and find out what it is really like.

I have been responsible for looking after the computers in the office for a while now and have decided that rather than just repairing them when faults occur, that I should run some PC diagnostics on them every so often, just to make sure that everything is okay. I have been trying to get the funding for this for a while now, the company is only small and so it is not easy for them to finance anything really.

With the economic situation, we, as employees, are trying not to push things either as we realise that if they spend money unnecessarily then we may end up causing the company to fall into trouble and if they go under we will all lose our jobs. I have looked into protech diagnostics as well and I have decided that it is probably better money wise, at this stage at least, to continue with what we are doing. I might try to do some checks on the computers myself if I get a chance but that will be about it now. When there is more money available, I will look into it again and hopefully find a good solution for us.

I am all for doing self-paced IT training courses and having done one at home, for myself, in order to improve myself, I am thinking of recommending that my company start to do them as well. I loved the fact that I could work through the course material whenever I wanted to and at the speed that I needed. I could very briefly look at the material that I already knew or that I found easy and spend time working through the new material that perhaps was more difficult.

I used the IT training videos a lot and watched them several times and the replayed the parts which I needed to remember. I found it great and completed the course pretty quickly because it was set up in such a way that it made me look forward to the next time I had the opportunity to study some more. I am sure this would be a great way that my company could address the training needs of the staff without breaking the bank. I know that many peoples skills need updating but most departments cannot justify the cost of sending team members away on training courses and so these could be the answer.

My friend has been going on about this new computer training online project that she is trying to get involved with at work. She said that some of the employees are testing the on line courses rather than going away on training courses. My friend is always being sent away on courses but she wants to stay in the office as much as she can because she can get back home to her young family more easily.

She is keen to try these on line courses and work on them at home once the children are in bed or during office time when she can. The course they are trailing at the moment is Excel 2007 training online and unfortunately she has already been trained to an advanced level in this area so she will not get to be part of the try out team. She was really hoping that she would be so that she could make sure that she put forward as many positives about it as she could. I am sure that she will get a chance as I expect that they will be doing more Microsoft online training and she will be bound to do some more of those courses soon as she seems to be doing them all of the time at the moment!

The Eee Phone, a smartphone that takes its name from popular computer products by Asustek Computer (Asus) including the Eee PC netbook line, will be among the early handsets released by the new Garmin-Asus mobile phone business the two companies announced last week.

GPS (global positioning system) device maker Garmin and Asus said the first Garmin-Asus handset will be revealed in Barcelona at the Mobile World Congress next week.

But it will not be the Eee Phone.

The Eee Phone will be a low-cost smartphone and will be announced later this year, an Asustek representative said Thursday.

Several news reports have speculated that the Eee Phone will be the first Asustek offering to use Google’s Android software, but Asus has not confirmed anything yet.

When the new Garmin-Asus name was announced last week, the heads of the two companies said their handsets will use a variety of operating systems, including Microsoft Windows Mobile, Linux and Android.

The first handset they plan to deliver under the Garmin-Asus name is the Garmin-Asus Nuvifone G60, which will be a refresh of the original Nuvifone G60 that Garmin commissioned Asustek to build last year.

Another Garmin-Asus mobile handset will be announced at the Mobile World Congress as well, but will likely launch in 2010, Asustek executives have said.

It’s no secret that I’ve been a convert to the Amazon Kindle for more than a year now. And now that Amazon has announced its second generation of the Kindle, I’m even more impressed with the device than I was before. But some misguided souls, like my colleague Rick Broida, are throwing down the gauntlet on my favorite eBook reader, saying it’s no match for that little all-in-one wonder from Apple, the iPhone. Here’s why they’re wrong.

1. It’s easy on the eyes. And no, I’m not talking about the design. The Kindle’s 6-inch E-Ink display sports a crisp 600×800 resolution that closely rivals the look of a real printed page. And because it’s as wide as a typical trade paperback, there’s plenty of space on the page to increase the font size to a large, comfortable level while still fitting more than 5 words on the screen.

Rick points out that the Kindle lacks a backlight, but he’s missing the point: E-Ink’s lack of backlighting is a critical factor that makes it so easy to read on. The iPhone’s bright backlit screen may be fine for the kind of infantile picture books Rick likes to “read,” but for those of us who really like to spend a day immersed in a great novel, the iPhone is practically blinding. Sure, I wish the Kindle had some kind of built-in light that would allow me to read in the dark without clipping an external book light to its cover, but backlighting is not the best solution.

2. One-handed control. When I first picked up my Kindle, I wasn’t sure I’d like the layout of its buttons. But by the time I had finished thumbing my way through my first downloaded title, I was sold. The Kindle’s controls make it easy to hold the device in one hand and advance to the next page with a light flick of a thumb or finger, no matter which hand you choose to hold it in. This is one case in which the Kindle trumps both the iPhone and old-school paper books.

3. Low cost of ownership. Yes, the Kindle itself costs $359 out the door, but once you plunk down that cash, you’re done paying for the device. Plus, the books themselves are dirt cheap. New titles typically cost $9.99, even when their dead-tree versions are only available in $30 hard covers. And many titles cost much less, including a huge selection of classics for as little as 99 cents.

4. Free 3G Internet. In addition to being a phenomenal way to carry and read hundreds of books, the Kindle comes with free Internet access for the life of the device. That means you can access just about any information on the Net without spending an additional dime. How much does Rick spend on his iPhone’s wireless service? $70 bucks a month? Win for Kindle.

5. Crazy long battery life. The Kindle’s E-Ink display sips power so efficiently that it can go days at a time without a recharge, so it’s perfect for taking on long trips where you won’t have ready access to a power outlet. And while the iPhone actually gets pretty impressive battery life for a phone, it’s not even in the same sport–let alone the same league–as the Kindle. Considering that the iPhone will inevitably spend most of its day serving as a phone, there’s little guarantee that it’ll have much juice left when book time rolls around.

Ultimately, the iPhone is a great all-around smart phone, and I’m not trying to knock it for that. But compared with a dedicated eBook reader like the Kindle, it’s just another mobile device with a color display. Rick points out that the iPhone will someday support Kindle books, and I’m glad for that. The more devices support Amazon’s format, the better it will be for everyone who loves eBooks. And if Rick wants to read his books on an inferior device, that’s his choice.
