Crowdleaks Windows Marketplace for Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1 After last week’s news, I’m pleased to tell you that Windows Marketplace for Mobile has today reached another major milestone by adding support for Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1 devices. This is an especially proud day for Microsoft because it marks our fulfillment of the Marketplace vision that we put forth only 9 months ago at Mobile World Congress. Last week we expanded the Marketplace experience to the PC and updated the developer portal to include stronger anti-piracy protection features for developers. Now available for phones with Windows Mobile 6.0 and 6.1 Initially, Marketplace was available for the new Windows phones with Windows Mobile 6.5. Updated application catalog and software vendors The activity we’re seeing on Marketplace continues to give us confidence that we’re delivering the right value to the right market. Microsoft was among the first to make transparency a core tenet of our relationship with developers and we’re pleased to see others in the industry follow suit.

Asus Eee Reader DR900 - First impression, photos and video - EeePC.it *UPDATE* The ASUS DR900 is one of the first e-reader provided with a touchscreen capacitive screen. I have heard about the product more than one year ago, in August 2009, so there are lots of expectations on the product. The device is a 9” screen electronic reader, endowed with a Wifi (there is also a version with 3G but it is not available now in the market). Nota: la recensione è disponibile anche in italiano. Video Review Description The box includes a black plastic cover to protect the reader: of course it is not as elegant as Kindle’s leather covers, but it is for free. Well, in the e-ink technology the fluid that lies inside the big balls is transparent whereas in the SiPix technology the fluid is black, so by definition the screens endowed with the SiPix technology should look darker than the others. The version in my hands has a Wi-fi, so you can get a connection at home or if you find a hotspot. Performance The menu has several issues, the most important ones are: Overall Conclusion
Amazon Kindle DX official images & specifications The official images of the Amazon Kindle DX are out, and as you might expect it looks like an overgrown version of the Kindle 2. The specifications tell the full dimension story, though: the Kindle DX measures 10.4 x 7.2 x 0.38 inches, versus the Kindle 2 which measures 8 x 5.3 x 0.36 inches. Kindle DX hardware specs after the cut That makes the Kindle DX as thin as most magazines, and only very slightly thicker than the Kindle 2. It weighs 18.9oz and you can read on a single charge for four days with the wireless switched on, or up to two weeks with it turned off. The Amazon Kindle DX will launch over the summer; the package includes the power adapter, USB 2.0 cable and battery, but not the leather book cover.
