Hasta La Gadget!

Let us all warmly greet the Core i5-2300, the i5-2400, and the Core i7-2600, three desktop-bound members of Intel’s upcoming Sandy Bridge CPU brigade. You’ll note that all three are fully dressed in their retail attire in an image coming from Malaysian electronics store Compuzone, which also has a full pricing and speed breakdown for these central processing units. The 3.4GHz Core i7 part costs 939RM ($301), followed by 609RM ($195) for the 3.1GHz 2400, and 585RM ($188) for the 2.8GHz 2300. It seems like Intel’s up to its old tricks again, letting some stock roll out early in distant Asian locales. At least this should mean there’ll be plenty to go around once the CES 2011 launch of these chips is out of the way. Hit the source for more details and to scope out pricing for the new LGA1155 motherboards.

The collaborative technology news site Digg, will no longer just be technology news! Digg is a news site that allows people to submit stories for others to vote on. The stories that get the most votes are then moved to the front page. Up until now, Digg has been a place where tehcnology geeks went to find their news. Digg has announced that they will be adding other news from entertainment and world news to politics and much more.

Some reader’s of Digg have voiced some concern over the new change. Some have said they are hoping that they will be able to choose the categories for the content that interests them most because anything other than technology news would not interest them. Others welcome the change and would enjoy some new content to read. Digg readers, what do you think about this?

Radio Shack’s $149 price for the 16GB iPhone 4 just got undercut by a whole two bucks. We’ve been tipped off to Sam’s Club now offering the AT&T-locked device for a $147 fee, subject to the usual two-year agreement. This offer will run all the way until Christmas day, so if you have to have the cheapest possible fourth-gen iPhone, this’ll probably be it. The 3GS is also up for grabs at a thrifty $47, emulating its younger sibling’s $52 price cut. Is there anyone left who isn’t discounting smartphones this month?

Hard to say if you’re aware, but Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (best known ’round these parts at CSIRO) was the first to develop the WiFi transmission technologies that are widely used on Planet Earth today, and they’ve got stacks of infringement lawsuits to prove it. Now, the organization is testing out a radical new approach to solve the rural broadband problem, and rather than relying on newly opened spectrum or other forms of black magic, they’re simply tasking existing analog TV antennas to work a little overtime. Put simply, Ngara uses the broadcast towers that already exist in rural towns that receive television signals, and then with a new set-top box and a modified TV antenna, it’s able to funnel broadband internet into faraway homes. Recent tests in Tasmania — sections with higher populations of Devils than Earthlings — have shown the uplink working just fine, but they’re still a good ways out from getting data to download. Project manager David Robertson surmises that it’ll be around four years before the technology is ready for the commercial market, and you can bet your bottom (Australian) dollar that we’ll be counting down the days. And so will everyone else stuck in the Big Apple wondering why Jimmy McMillan didn’t get elected for mayor.
