"Instead [of] going to the doctor who says, ‘Let me draw blood and in three days I’ll call you if there’s anything wrong,’ the doctor can look and say, ‘Oh, I just checked all your blood over this last year, and it looks like your kidneys are good, your liver is good, I don’t see any indication of oncologic cells, pretty good, thanks.’ … We want to have a Tricorder where Dr. McCoy will wave this thing and say, ‘Oh, you’re suffering from Valerian death fever.’ And he’d then give some shot in a person’s neck and they’d immediately get better. We won’t do the shots — our partners will do the shots. But we’re hoping to build the Tricorder," he told Medium at the time.
Unihertz didn’t settle for the basics, it even threw in elements we never expected to see in a minimalist phone like this one. These include the fingerprint sensor, a 3.5mm headset jack, and even an additional button dedicated to PTT communications.
The plastic front was melted, but the hardware itself was undamaged. In fact, it still works to this day. Nintendo has the Gulf War Game Boy on display at their store in New York City, playing a Tetris demo.
Lenovo and HP are the only two other companies to ship Windows on ARM computers so far, but the Lenovo Miix 630 and HP Envy x2 are both tablets with detachable keyboards. The Asus NovaGo keyboard is built into the computer, which mean that this machine is a notebook first and a tablet second.
The iQ is also the first universal ultrasound device that can image an entire body. Crystals in ultrasound devices resonate at one narrow frequency tailored to individual areas. A user will need one probe to capture, say, a patient’s veins and another to image the heart or kidney. “These pieces have narrow bandwidths tailored to each application,” Sanchez says. “But our device has a very broad bandwidth that can essentially become any other probe at any time.”
Google Glass teased an interesting future, but failed to deliver on its promise. Today, Toshiba picks up where Glass left off, with a pair of Augmented Reality (AR) glasses powered by a mini Windows 10 PC.
“This is the big coup,” Stubbs says. “Going forward, there will be a lot of autonomy in decision making, especially when running highly complex operations where by the time a person could make a decision you’ve already gone past the time of it being effective. That’s where people can start monetizing data, since you’re using it to avoid costs and move closer to perfection.”
I’m glad they’re trying new things too but it’s still way overpriced and setup to fail almost intentionally. Not even Microsoft is truly committed to Windows On ARM. Their Surface Go is further evidence of their lack of commitment to WoA. As Brad mentioned, you can get a comparably priced Surface device that has more features across the board including LTE support in some models and battery life that’s close enough to these devices. That’s just the more premium Surface devices, I’m sure there are OEM devices that also offer everything this has to offer but cheaper. Also there will be an LTE version of the Surface Go soon too. LTE and roughly 20% battery for $200 levels of performance is not going to get people to buy this device. It has to be priced competitively. The Xbox One had a slow start because it was priced $100 more than… Read more »

King noted the city of Bexley in Franklin County, which passed a similar law in recent years, has signage he described as a potential model for Granville.
No Hyper-V. This was a gray area previously—I’ve heard the phrase “it’s just Windows 10, so it will work” several times—but now it’s real: Hyper-V is not supported in Windows 10 on ARM.
IBM intros a wireless sales terminal WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.-International Business Machines Corp. introduced a handheld wireless system for retailers to use as a portable or docked point-of-sale workstation, as an inventory management device and a connection to networks including the Internet. The IBM 4612 Sure Point Mobile Computer is a pen-based system that allows retail employees access to information anywhere in the store. IBM said the system also can act as a sales assistant, providing information such as inventory status, product details, escorted shopping, suggested selling, special orders, delivery scheduling, stock inquiries, gift registry and clienteling. “We have taken the function and the power of a desktop computer and packed it into a small, rugged, hand-held terminal, designed to support the evolving needs of retailers,” said Ron O’Connor, vice president of retail and distribution solutions, IBM Distribution Industry. … Read more
