Samsung introduces new Galaxy and Duos with Dual SIM
Samsung has just introduced two new handsets that bind to another Star range, entry phones that are focused on social networks. This is the Samsung Star 3 Star 3 and DUOS, the latter model, as discussed below, is also known for being dual sim. In fact, this last feature is the only difference between them. Keep in mind that are not phones with the latest technology, but a very interesting option for those looking for an economic model.
The touch screens of Star 3 Star 3 DUOS and are 3 inches, a figure far removed from what we are accustomed. Nor highlights its resolution is QVGA. All other features are also pretty basic, but sufficient for the type of user you are directed: WiFi, Bluetooth 3.0 and a single camera only 3.2 megapixels. It also has FM radio with RDS. Accepts cards up to 16GB via microSD slot included. 1.000mAh battery gives considerable autonomy.
Both phones have full integration with leading social networks, and Chaton, instant messaging software developed by Samsung itself, with the lure of working with other platforms. TouchWiz Lite is the name they use and attractive interface that is based on more advanced smartphones from the Korean manufacturer.
As mentioned at the beginning, Star 3 DUOS model so named because it is a DUAL SIM model, ie, allowing us to use two cards in the same phone, an ideal choice for users who want to separate the professional from the personal, with the convenience of access both from the same device. Although we must remember that it is the same model with these features, as were recently presented and also the Samsung Galaxy and Galaxy DUOS AND DUOS Pro.
The design is quite compact and has significantly smaller dimensions (58 x 102 x 11.5 mm) standard which is being already in the top models, and weighs only 95 grams. The Samsung Star 3 go on sale first in Russia later this month to go in stages later in other markets, but with prices and specific dates yet to be determined.

Today I want to tell you something that will make sure to jump off the couch, bed, desk or wherever they are. The truth is that I will present such a gadget with which many dreams, which comes with the latest technology and also leaves very baratita.
In short, all those B we always seek in the products: good, nice and cheap. Vivitar DVR 790HD is called, and although it has not come on the market, it is very likely to find on the market before Christmas, what could become the perfect gift for anyone, especially because its price below 80 euros.
But let’s call everything by its name, and we will see what is hidden behind the Vivitar DVR 790HD camcorder that makes it so special, or if that price is not a bargain but not too much quality. Even if it did would probably not have come to our blog.
In any case, for the most incredulous, here are all the new camera CHARACTERISTICS OF Vivitar DVR 790HD, to be enjoyed and the point in the list of the Magi:
* Trigger 5.1 megapixel fixed focus
* 4x digital zoom
* USB 2.0 and HDMI
* SD memory card support up to 32GB
* 2.7 LCD screen capable of displaying 3D images and videos
* 3D video recording at 720p (1280 x 720 pixels)
It seems that we still have to wait a few months to learn all the news come in the next round of technology, the CES 2012, but some of them have already leaked, and while we know that there are few data that exist in the sector computers can give them an exclusive can they enjoy it or anything.
And before you start, do ultrabook seem useful? If the answer is yes, then they will be able to say that CES 2012 will be yours, if not, get ready for some sessions of boredom because the technology fair is to reach more of this kind, is now a total of 60, a figure that begins to approach that was in 2011 the gadget of the year: the tablets.
And although I believe that everything is for your use, as some do not think that they will ultrabooks unseat tablets, or vice versa. An ultrabook is a movable billboard, a full-fledged computer that we can take it anywhere and to work with will be much easier. However, the stablets are perfect for fun. Choose one, one or both will be only a question of to what going to use.
I know what it actually says is that the XBox 720, which was supposed to be the successor to the current XBox 360, which is not that we know the name, but we’ve taken of the many speculations, it is will arrive in 2014, but now it looks like things, and in one stroke have changed, and it could be that Microsoft’s console received its new successor next year.
However, not sure, because the sources that we draw are software vendors, which mean that even if reliable, it is not so much the time will come. And that is my point of view, the XBox 360 will not even touch the substitution, as much restyling, and even less with the success on the internet.
What if I think that if competition is going to take a step, then they will be ready to jump and not miss a single customer in this market have taken so long to conquer. So I think that only if Wii or Playstation out to revenge, then they will next year to see an XBox 720 or whatever you call it, if you do not see it quite difficult.
Gizmotika Today I bring you good news if you are of those who have a smartphone manufacturer HTC. And is that the brand seems to be convinced that its fans and loyal customers have to have something extra, something to reward their loyalty.
So no matter if they have a new HTC smartphone out of the market, or in your case is an older phone, all they will have 3GB of free storage in the cloud with Dropbox service. And considering that this service already offers 2GB to all users without costing them a single euro, 5G have in total without paying anything.
Therefore, with all services available storage in the cloud, it is hard to choose, but with these promotions will be difficult to say no to the HTC Do not you think?
Anyway, for those who have a HTC terminal tell them they just download the Dropbox app on your smartphone and open your account, or create a new one, in case you do not have to see how your space in the cloud increases in a VIP for choosing the manufacturer.
And do not know how they would pay to reach this agreement, the HTC but I know that with fashion store in the cloud, the promotion makes sure that the brand increases its reputation.

As you know, in terms of computer accessories is little written in the sense that almost anything goes. Today I want to present you one of those, who despite not offering technical features that go far beyond what is usual in the design and the trademark in question are those that make the difference. And this is the case with the LaCie USB Galet.
Evidently, technical characteristics, has much to envy of any other model of a trademark, however LaCie Galet deserves a space in our blog about something else, and as you can see in the picture, the gadget is more than luxury .
