Hasta La Gadget!

Our friend Mr. Blurrycam has come through once again, this time with a handful of Helio Ocean 2 snapshots. Aside from a blurry close-up of the on-screen calendar, there isn’t much here that we haven’t already seen in finer detail from the FCC. It’s apparently got a 3 megapixel camera, which is what we reported initially but not what was listed in the FCC-submitted user manual. Our tipster says it’s expected to launch early or mid-February for release, which jives with other rumors we’ve heard. Hit up the gallery for more pics.

Well, well, lookie here… HTC’s G2 followup to the original Android phone getting a good man-handling in the wild. Expected in May, the images were leaked without specs or any real details. Still, it’s clearly the G2 / Sapphire 2.0 handset with 3.2 megapixel camera leaked just a few weeks back along-side the rest of HTC’s 2009 models. Hey, you didn’t need that physical keyboard anyway, right?

I know that we have a bunch of geeks who read our site, and they probably enjoy knowing every little thing that their computer is doing. The Windows Task Manager is a great way to do that, but sometimes you want to take it to the next level. That’s where AnVir Task Manager comes into play.

AnVir Task Manager is the ultimate tool for keeping track of what’s going on behind the scenes on your computer. You can view advanced information for each process that’s running, receive a threat assessment as to how dangerous something might be, view what files and/or drivers a process is using, and much more. On top of that, you can control which services are running, what items startup with your PC, and more.

If you find something that is suspicious, there are a few different actions you can take in AnVir to ensure the security of your machine. This includes performing a Google search or even uploading the file in question to the VirusTotal site, where it will then be scanned by dozens of different antivirus applications. All it takes is a few clicks.

Here are some of the features you’ll enjoy with AnVir Task Manager:

• Full information about processes including command line, DLLs that the program uses, inbound and outbound traffic, disk load, tray icon, performance graph, internet connections, Windows, threads, open files, etc.
• Information about startup programs and services. Integrated database with Descriptions for 70 000+ startup programs, Internet Explorer toolbars and services
• Information about drivers, Internet (TCP/UPD) connections
• Icons in the system tray that indicate: CPU usage, hard drive temperature and disks activity (with per-application info), network inbound and outbound traffic, memory, and more
• Get a security risk rating that indicates the likelihood of a program being potential virus, spyware, malware or a trojan. The rating is based on behavior, code analysis, and integrated database
• Get a notification when any program tries to add itself to the startup
• and much more!

It was just yesterday that Reuters predicted Nokia’s Comes With Music service was headed for something of a pilgrimage through the wilds of Europe, and now we have the official confirmation of this “pan European” expansion. The company has secured partnerships with music licensing and publishing big-wigs in Spain, France, Italy, Sweden, Finland, and Norway, and is indicating that Singapore and Australia are next on its to-do list. Alas there was no mention of other nations getting any sort of attention, meaning Nokia handsets in the New World are unlikely to come with anything but guilt for the forseeable future.

Qualcomm announced that it has bought AMD’s handheld graphics unit for $65 million in cash. As part of the deal, Qualcomm has acquired graphics and multimedia technology assets, intellectual property and resources that were formerly the basis of AMD’s handheld business.

Qualcomm said in a statement that it has offered jobs to current AMD handheld graphics design and development employees; currently they’re working on mobile 2D and 3D graphics, audio/video, display, and architecture design. Both companies have already received regulatory approval for the deal.

Back at CTIA 2007, AMD showed off its then-new Imageon line of mobile graphics chips; the company since had trouble finding a handset maker willing to incorporate them. Last year, AMD first announced that it was considering selling off its handheld graphics unit.
