The entire process that brings Internet censorship in China is filled with bureaucracy. We all know that and we also know of reports that say around 30 to 40 thousand web sites have been censored and the number is constantly rising. This definitely means that there are different individuals behind this. Well, it seems that some information was leaked concerning this topic. I was surprised to find out that there are different agencies responsible for different types of censorship. In total we have 3 agencies responsible for this: the Internet Propaganda Administrative Bureau, the Bureau of Information and Public Opinion and the Internet Bureau. We also have the Beijing Internet Information Administrative Bureau that strictly handles Internet firms in the city. It is actually very interesting to see how Internet Censorship works in China.

Three years ago scientists managed to successfully teleport a quantum state of an atom. This was done after understanding quantum entanglement happened around 6 years ago. So we need to think if we are anywhere nearer teleportation than three years ago. Well, scientists have been focusing on trying to teleport the atomic state of the atom in a different location but it seems that the destruction of the original atom does not create the copy we want. Charles Bennett, IBM Research stated:

 ”….the teleported person would end up slightly different, but not in a biologically important way.”

We must realize that teleportation is still a long way from happeneing as the human body is made out of around 10²⁸ atoms and we can not even think about the possibility of such large scale destruction and reproduction. It does look like we will not see teleportation in real life, in this lifetime.

The Toughbook-30 and Toughbook-19 convertible tables by Panasonic are now linked with the 3G AT&T BroadbandConnect data network. We can witness an alliance between AT&T and Panasonic that announces the full certification and availability of the two models on UMTS/HSDPA-based 3G. To make things even better, the announcement also comes with an offer aimed at making it more convenient for users to buy Panasonic ToughBook mobile computers and AT&T services through sales relationship and combined marketing towards different applications and industries. We are talking about public safety, transporting, utilities and more.These two companies have offered combined 3G wireless solutions ever since 2005 so it is no surprise that this close collaboration leads to high performance data solutions for many costumers that might need it. With the new combination, Toughbook notebooks come with mobile broadband access in 165 major metropolitan locations in the USA and global wireless data capability is available through HSDPA-UMTS, together with EDGE or GPRS services in around 135 countries thanks to international data plans by AT&T. All this sums up to 3G BroadbandConnect and EDGE networks access for Toughbook notebooks in around 13,000 cities.

So, we have an interesting solution at hand. We still do not know the official prices but the Toughbook notebook and built in AT&T 3G BroadbandConnect services will sell for around $3,800 for the Toughbook 19 and $3,900 for the Toughbook 30.

Motorola just announced the launch of their U9 mobile phone. This is basically an extension of the PEBL, much like V8 is to the original RAZR. We have here an interesting cell phone that comes with the lovely CrystalTalk noise reduction technology, a 2 megapixel camera and the possibility of including a microSD memory card. It is interesting to see that we have support for Windows Media Player 11 in combination with MP3, WMA, AAC, AAC+ and we can also notice stereo Bluetooth support. We are also hit with touch sensitive controls that are quite nice and the Motorola U9 is scheduled to appear in Asia, Europe and Latin America in the last quarter of the year. As you might have already figured out, there is no talk of a North America release plan.

Have you ever had a problem with your remote control? Did you need to have as many buttons on it as TV Channels? I never did but just in case you did, here we have the new Pultius, a 20 inch long remote control. OK, it does seem strange but it is strangely making me want to test one.
