Gateway NV59c Review!!!!!!!!!!

Review: The Gateway NV59c makes a stylish pop-up entertainment center for around the house, but won’t be quite as home on the road.

Whether you’re folded into a hostel bunk beside a bunch of snoring Germans, holed up in a concrete box of a dorm room, or just too cheap for a TV, a laptop can be as much an entertainment center as a tool for communication, study and productivity. Gateway’s NV59c shoulders the burden of keeping users grinning with a 15.6-inch screen, integrated Blu-ray player, and even built-in WiMax for keeping the Hulu, YouTube and Netflix videos rolling, even when you’re away from home. While it’s far from the ideal travel notebook, its affordable prices and comfortable controls make the NV59c a decent value for the right type of user. Continue on to our full review below for our in-depth look at the Gateway NV59c.

Features

Gateway stuffs the NV59c with processors as fast as the Core i5 460M and options like ATI Radeon HD 5470 or Nvidia GeForce 320M graphics, but our NV59c66u came with a Core i3 370M (clocked at 2.4GHz) and vanilla Intel HD graphics. It also sports a 500GB hard drive, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, and a Blu-ray drive.

At a portly 5.72 pounds and 1.34 inches thick, the NV59 certainly feels happiest on a desktop, but it’s actually reasonably competitive — A similarly equipped Dell Inspiron 15 packs a little more meat on the bones while HP’s G62 cuts a bit away, leaving the NV59 about average.

CEA kicks off process to standardize active 3D glasses

This one's still in the earliest stages, but it looks like the Consumer Electronics Association (a.k.a. theCEA) is doing its part to add a bit of order to the wild world of active 3D glasses. To that end, it's just put out a request for proposals on a standard IR sync interface for active 3D glasses, and it's encouraging companies that wish to participate to join the 3D Technologies Working Group -- they'll have to work fairly fast, though, as proposals are due in by March 31st. The ultimate goal, of course, is to ensure that 3D glasses sold by one manufacturer are compatible with 3D TVs made by another manufacturer, although there's no word on any companies that have actually signed on to the plan just yet.

TRACK YOUR CHAILD WITH A PHONE!!!!!!!!!!

Your child's security is of prime importance for every parent and keeping this in mind, Japan’s Softbank and ZTE has introduced a new mobile which acts more of a security device than a communicating device. The phone doubles as a one-button panic alarm that’s wired into a cell phone, designed specifically for preschoolers and seniors. This one-button smartphone will call parents or other emergency contacts when the caller needs immediate help. Once the call is completed, the device sends an automated email with GPS data pinpointing the caller’s location. The phone also comes with an alarm that will allow parents to find a child when it is lost.
