Sony To Launch Internet-enabled Blu-ray Disc Player..by Entrepreneur.Ravinder Singh

Corp. marches on with the launching of its first Internet-enabled Blu-ray disc player this summer. This will be the first disk player from the manufacturing giant since its victory over Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD format war recently.
Toshiba Corp. announced last week that the company will stop making disc players for the HD-DVD when Warner Bros. Entertainment moved over to solely support Sony’s Blu-ray.
Sony plans to introduce this coming summer the BDP-S350 player for an approximate price of about $400 for the first
version. This will be the company’s first to feature an Ethernet port that allows it to connect to a home broadband connection so you can now download your favorite games and movie trailers.
Apart from the PlayStation 3 game console, the player will also be the first Sony Blu-ray player to show picture-in-picture content; “Bonus View” that can be used to show director or actor commentary in a small window while the movie plays.
While Panasonic has already in the market Internet-enabled players that adopted Bonus View concept two years ago, Sony is definitely playing catch-up now; making yet another breakthrough in its own technology.

How To Prevent Swine Flu? by Entrepreneur.Ravinder Singh

Step1

How To Prevent Swine Flu Infection

Always cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing; ideally use something disposable like a tissue. Avoid touching your face, nose or mouth too frequently with your hands since swine flu appears to be transmitted through respiratory droplets in the same fashion as the common cold.

Step2

How To Prevent Swine Flu Infection

Wash your hands frequently with soap and water since swine flu like other viruses can be contracted by touching objects contaminated by the virus. It's unsure how long the swine flu virus can survive on surrounding surfaces.

Step3

How To Prevent Swine Flu Infection

Though alcohol based hand sanitizers don't routinely kill viruses they probably do offer some limited protection in preventing swine flu infections.

Step 4
If swine flu infections have been medically confirmed in your area consider avoiding large public gatherings. Individuals can be contagious with the swine flu virus for several day before demonstrating any signs or symptoms of infection. Be particularly careful about indoor gatherings where air circulates poorly.

Step 5

How To Prevent Swine Flu Infection

If you're really paranoid and don't mind looking odd then consider wearing a respiratory mask. This barrier method does offer some basic protection against infection though not all masks are created equally. Higher quality masks capable of filtering out some respiratory infections are more expensive.

Step 6

How To Prevent Swine Flu Infection

If you start feeling ill with cold or flu-like symptoms do not go to work. Stay home and begin the usual home remedies for colds and flu. Contact your health care provider, local health department or hospital emergency room if your symptoms worsen or fail to improve for information about where to go to be screened for possible swine flu infection.

Phone With Fold-Away Screen, Anyone?...by Entrepreneur.Ravinder Singh

Polymer Vision has squeezed a display the size of two business cards and turned it into the world�s first phone that has a fold-away screen that fold ups like paper when not in use. The Dutch company introduced the 5-inch Readius� as an e-phone that can fit perfectly in a pocket when folded and when folded out, users can use it to read e-news, blogs and email.



Readius� has a large screen for e-reading purposes, superb battery life and high-end connectivity. It is no bigger than a normal mobile phone and weigh the same if not lighter. The fold-able phone has an electronic �paper� screen that allows it to bend and it displays black-and-white text and images as the it is printed on a piece of paper.




Besides the conventional use of making and answering calls, the device is perfect for e-reading; simply connects it to the Internet using the third-generation mobile phone networks with high speed data and users will be able to access to their email accounts, news source, podcast, audio books and blog feed that transferred from their home computer to the device when it is updated.

Polymer vision is not disclosing how much Readius� would cost but commented that it would be sold at a comparable price to a high-end mobile.
