Asus 1018p review

The Asus Eee 1018p is a netbook that packs every single feature that one would want in a netbook. It looks impressive and expensive. It has gorgeous exterior, aluminum enclosure, magnetic latch and many more exiting features and it does not compromise on performance too!

Sony Vaio M Review

Sony Vaio M Review

Sony is the maker of famous ultraportables or shall we say expensive ultraportables. But, with its Vaio M netbook, for the first time, we are looking at Sony showing peculiar affection towards the budget netbook market. The Vaio M is a brave attempt by Sony to eat a small piece of the already over-saturated 10-inch netbook form factor.

Asus Eee 1201NL review

Asus Eee 1201NL review

Asus has already churned out several variations for their 12-inch netbooks. We have seen 1201n, 1201ha, 1201t, 1201nl, 1201x, 1201k and so on. Few weeks back, we posted the review of the Asus Eee 1201T and we were pretty impressed with the performance. We also have the Asus eee 1201N which is very powerful for a netbook, but does not yield satisfactory battery runtimes. For those yearning for better runtime, Asus rolled-out another 12-incher called 1201NL. This one has Atom N270 processor and Nvidia ION LE combo. So, does it gets a thumbs-up from our side?

Asus 1008P review – KR

Asus 1008P is the successor of the suave Asus 1008HA which brings the newest Intel Atom N450 processor. On paper, the Eee 1008P appears to be a typical netbook, but it offers some very interesting features which I will discuss in the review.

Asus 1201T review

Asus Eee 1201T is a decent netbook that is powered by the AMD-powered processor instead of the Atom processor that one commonly finds in a netbook. Its immediate cousin – the Asus eee 1201N is outfitted with Intel Atom N330 dual-core processor that is more commonly found in nettops.

ASUS EEE 1101HA review

The ASUS EEE 1101HA is the epitomization of good looks combined with great battery life. It carries the same Seashell design like its 10-inch brother, EEE 1008HA. But, the ASUS has entering a bit late into the 11.6-inch netbook market, but that does not make it an unattractive deal by any chance. It is a great netbook.

Android OS now running on HTC Diamond: Cute little MID?

HTC Diamond is a great phone. Now, thanks to great folks at xda-devs, running Android OS on it has now become a reality. HTC Diamond runs Windows Mobile 6.1, but now it can Android OS too and you do not have to remove Windows Mobile from your device too.

Calls and SMS, both work without a problem. Here are the steps on getting Android on your Diamond:

1. Go to Connect-UTB Diamond download page
2. Download Android for HTC Diamond (70 MB)
3. Unizp it
4. Paste it on your internal card root
5. Hit the exe. First Android boot will take time
6. Have Fun
7. Restart your phone for coming back to Windows

Due to this hack, I can again start using my device as a MID. Internet Explorer Mobile 6 that comes with the Windows Mobile is downright pathetic when it comes to Web-browsing. The Android’s browser is based on web-kit, so the browsing experience must be much better than Windows Mobile.

I also own a HTC Diamond and looks like it is time to experiment Android on it. I am using Android 1.6 on my ASUS EEE 701 and it is running great.

    It also runs fine on Raphael models (Diamond + slide keyboard)

    It still not runs data service required programs but you can try Android’s expirience without lost Windows Phone OS, just a soft reset.

    XDA-Devs provides a great upgrade to Windows 6.5.3 (TAEL’s ROM), I had installed an I have not problems of any kind with it. It includes Opera 10 Beta that really improves the previous versions of the OS

    PS: sorry my bad English

    Hello!
    I’ve tryed this one, launches without any problem, but stops on screen, writing SIM card is locked. After entering PIN writes: Incorrect PIN Code. Tried different simple codes, like 0000, or 1234 – no result, as well, as with a correct PIN. Now trying on another sim, without PIN Code, everything works.
