Tired of running out of memory space on your portables? Carrying 2-3 digicam memory cards for a family vacation? Hoping that you had all your data with you whereever and whenever you travel? Well here is a good news for you – The SD Association has revealed plans for SDXC cards that are as small as your SD or SDHC memory cards but can hold up to 2 Terabytes if data, YES!

Asus should probably change its name to AsEE. The tag EEE seems to be a real winner for them. From the many geek toys that Asus displayed at CES, the Asus EEE Keyboard and AIRO concept (Fold/Unfold) impressed us the most.

The Asus EEE Keyboard is a PC that fits into a metal keyboard with a small touchscreen display on the right corner. Powered by the Intel Atom processor the EEE keyboard can also be plugged to a PC. It features Apple style individual inset keys and a wireless HDMI allowing TV connectivity.

After the big Netbook market share that Asus managed to capture over the EEE PC brand, it now plans to bring to the mobile arena a Android powered EE Phone. ASUSTek’s CEO Jonney Shih gave info on the device while speaking to the media during the ongoing CES.
While Asus already manufacturers Windows Mobile based smartphones, now the ‘E’ factor shall step in. Android we feel shall be a good option for Asus to diversify. Earlier reports had suggested that a Android powered Asus might launch in March 09. Lets see…

The triple fold and sexy ice phone we saw earlier has made an appearance at the ongoing CES aswell. According to the comments made about the device, it is good to handle and the triple flip looks like a hit!
Hope to see this Windows Mobile powered concept phone on time (i.e. April @ $1000).

From the ashes, here it rises again – Palm Treo + Competition + Criticism + Downfall + Dedication + Palm DNA + Revolutionary New OS + Our Prayers = the PALM PRE
The newness at Palm is now revealed officially. As expected the new Palm OS powered device is fully Touch with iPhone like gestures (in Palm style) and bundles in a sliding QWERTY. I am certain its a winner for PALM. Palm PRE as it is named runs on Palm webOS and delivers more than what we expected.

Atlast we have some concrete picture of the super Netbook from Sony. The Vaio Pocket or Vaio P whtever it is called. The picture is taken from a display screen and not hands-on, but we are hoping for more soon! The FCC previously leaked the dimensions at 9.5 x 4.5-inches and the other specs might well be as seen in the image before. Also clearly visible is a webcam (Motion Eye) next to the display. This one is surely power packed.

Update:
So Sony has made the Vaio P official atlast. Amazingly small and loaded with features. And just one major side-effect – THE PRICE. Just as we suspected early on Sony can’t keep the $$ under control. This one costing $900!

CES is around and I have a feeling that I am gonna dump both the E61i and the iPhone that I currently use. Here is a mock up of what the new Palm devices running Nova would look like. A iPhone like big touchscreen with a slide out QWERTY. AWESOME!

HP Mini MI (Mobile Internet edition) 1000 is expected to be unveiled at CES 2009 in just a couple of days. While the exact config is not clear this one is real cheap starting at $379.99 and is expected to run Linux OS. The image above also shows a XP edition of the same. While the earlier Netbook from HP Mini Note wasn’t a real competition for the EEE and the others this one seems to be something concrete.

I remember using a cheap wrist watch with calculator sometime in school (maybe 10yrs back); but then the whole world on wrist concept is some illusion that people are yet to get over. We are yet to see a good successful wrist phone and the ones that I personally saw were disastrous (Anyone remembers that Reliance Mobile?).
Here is another added to the list, The LG GD910 – Just another gadget we would see at CES 09.
