Which netbook accessories you would like to see tested?


Continue reading..

I'm getting some goodies for testing from Ultimate Netbook Accessories, but before they are sending them, I'd like to ask what you would like to see?

No.1 on my list is the external battery pack which I will take with me to Computex ( YEAH! Going there! ) They also have new solar charged pack, but I don't think I will have too much time in the sun there...

So.. What should I test?

External battery pack looks like a good test. Have my eye on this for quite a while. Would love to see how it works.

I would like to see "C" drive cloning to an external HDD explained in detail and at a n00b level. Compare different software solutions also.

Thanks

Ultimate netbook accessories doesnt have it but i would love to see the performance of the evga UV Plus+ reviewed.. I've seen alot of reviews but none of them using little GMA graphics chips. Mostly what I am interested in is video performance, I dont care about 3d output or high performance stuff. Does it have noticeable lag on say 720 p output, does it sync up to the video?

Davet said...

Correction I wanted to know weather there was noticable lag between the audio and video.

I would like to know which car chargers are able to keep supplying 12V reliably to an Eee PC when their supply voltage from the cigarette lighter plug dips below 12V. I've got one that appears to be unreliable.

I'd like to see you take a 1008HA and swap the HDD for a SSD, including a summary of the cloning steps. Also compare the performance (boot-up, close-down, app start, etc) before and after. Would be really useful.

Portable Dual Drive RAID enclosure accomodates up to two 2.5" SATA hard drives into a small package that fits easily in your hand. To enhance portability, the entire storage unit is designed to be powered by most USB ports*

* Note - that Addonics ot the above web site states that they have successfully tested this drive enclosure with two 80G 2.5" SATA hard drives using direct power from USB ports on various brands of Notebook and Desktop computers. However, Addonics does not guarantee that this enclosure can be powered by all systems this way as the power from the USB port varies from different system manufacturers.

Forgot to mention the test of the above addonics portable dual drive RAID... instead of hard drives, the unit with another addonics device, could maybe use up to 4 SSD drives where you could build a high capacity external SSD enclosure with multiple drives using either RAID 0 or RAID 1...

Or just test it with various portable devices that have USB with a hard drive as advertised... - however, the SSD external option might be better for power use and might then make this drive nice for those who want to have a pocketable UMPC or MID device, and still have in the other pocket a lot of data or songs or photos etc that can be moved quickly between devices YET still be in a pocketable size device.

For those asking for the Pico Projector! I just received my Samsung MBP200 and all I can say it is Amazing and quality is great but once it comes to connecting to a laptop it is a pain as still I am not able to get good resolution.

Tried it also with my new Viliv S5 but also no luck I think it is becaue of the very high resolution that the Viliv has.

JKK you need to get you hand on one of these Gadgets :) if you can make it work with the Viliv S5 would be a GREAT Mobile combintion.
