The Sony Walkman A845, the gadget giant’s skinny OLED Walkman with an epic battery life, has finally been penciled in for a UK launch, five months after lucky iPod haters in Japan got their mitts on the device.

The Sony Walkman A845 isn’t the first music player from Sony (That honour goes to the tasty X Series), but it’s a big step in bringing the beautiful display tech down market, along with the flagship Walkman’s digital noise canceling too. Despite a big 2.8-inch OLED panel, the Sony Walkman A845 weighs in at just 62g, and is only 7.2mm thick so it’ll slip into any pocket.

A845 comes with high-quality 13.5mm EX vertical in-ear headphones which as well as being impressive with regards to sound quality also feature Digital Noise Cancelling which promises to remove a very specific 98% of ambient noise, and whilst the efficiency of noise cancelling can vary one can imagine that these would again match the rest of the player.

Finally there’s the battery life which should last for up to 29 hours for music, and 9 for video, which is more than necessary for even the longest of journeys. Overall the Sony Walkman A845 is quite impressive, and Sony have managed not just to push forward world beating design with regards to how thin it is, but also backed it up with the usual good quality. The only obvious drawback will probably be the price but we’ll have to wait till February to find out!

Someone said that technology is a gift of God and after the gift of life it is perhaps the greatest gifts and I suppose that’s unquestionably. No doubt technology has transformed the world cardinally. The world has changed much faster than many of us could imagine, and it continues to. Nowhere can the effect of technological change be seen any clearer than in the elaboration of information and communication, I mean, computing and mobile phone technologies.

You can have brilliant ideas, but if you can’t get them across, your ideas won’t get you anywhere, right? New technology has turned conference calls into one of the most important part of American and International business. Today using a conference call service you get a full range of conferencing solutions including audio and web conferencing, online meetings, and teleconferencing allowing you to be connected any time you need with anyone you need though it were your business members or clients.

As a matter of fact conferencing services have never been such high quality and beneficial. This type of calling communicates more than 2 people and gives each of them possibility physically see who is in attendance as well as physically look at any papers and materials. So if we are communicated we are not separated. With the technology our greatest hopes could become reality in the future. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking.

The news is Australian senate committee has released a scathing report on the Federal Government’s National Broadband Network, saying the pilot project in Tasmania is ‘flying’ blind. The report says that apart from naming which towns will be connected to the $43 billion fibre-optic cable first, the State and Federal Governments have not provided an implementation plan. Committee chair Senator Mary-Jo Fisher says the key Tasmanian stakeholders, NBN Tasmania Company, Aurora Energy, the Tasmanian Government, and the Tasmanian Skills Institute declined invitations to appear. “It was really disappointing that when we came to Tasmania we couldn’t hear from those ‘doing the do’.”

A space elevator made of a carbon nanotubes composite ribbon anchored to an offshore sea platform would stretch to a small counterweight approximately 62,000 miles (100,000 km) into space. Mechanical lifters attached to the ribbon would then climb the ribbon, carrying cargo and humans into space, at a price of only about $100 to $400 per pound ($220 to $880 per kg).
