Marshal, an electronics manufacturer in Japan, has released a new “smart” hard drive case with many interesting functionalities. The MAL2635S is a 3.5 inches SATA / SATA II external HDD case, with LED indicators to let the user know at a glance how much unused space remains on the drive: 90%, 70%, 50% or 30%. The case is geared towards energy savings: its aluminum body prevents it from overheating, and there’s a power saving mode that activates automatically after the drive has been idle for 10 minutes. It can be used as an external hard drive (USB 3.0/2.0), but also as an additional storage drive for the PS3, with Toshiba Regza, or as a storage drive for TV recording.

Toshiba is set to become the first PC maker to put a 3D-capable Blu-ray Disc laptop on sale, it said Monday.

The company's Dynabook TX/98MBL will hit Japan in July and is based around a 3D system from graphics-chip maker NVidia.

NVidia's "3D Vision" system combines one of its GeForce graphics cards with a pair of active-shutter glasses, a plug-in transmitter to send sync signals to the glasses and software.

Active-shutter glasses flicker on and off 60 times per second in sync with the image being displayed on the screen. The screen shows 120 images per second with alternate frames for the right and left eye and the glasses help separate these and direct the relevant image to the correct eye. In this way the view gets an illusion of depth in the image.

Toshiba's laptop has a 15.6-inch display and a Blu-ray Disc drive with support for 3D movies. The laptop is based around an Intel Core i7-740QM processor and the GeForce chip in use is the GTS 365M, said Toshiba.

It will go on sale in July in Japan for about ¥250,000 (US$2,745). Toshiba plans to put it on sale overseas but isn't ready to announce launch plans.

Toshiba announced the addition of a new HD camera to its Camileo Series, the Toshiba Camileo H10. Our new camera records video in 720p, features a 10 Mpix sensor, 5x optical zoom, 2.7″ LCD screen, 64MB of memory, SD/SDHC slot (up to 8GB of memory), motion detection, night mode, and image stabilization.

This new camcorder will be available at the end of this month for 230€.

Apple is readying another tablet similar to the iPad but with a 7-inch touchscreen for launch as early as the end of this year, according to a major Taiwanese newspaper.

This is the second report of an iPad 2 sighting in Taiwan, and it comes from the island's Chinese-language Economic Daily News financial newspaper, which was among the first to correctly report that Apple was making a tablet when other news sources said it would be a netbook. The launch of the original iPad proved the paper correct.

Taiwan's Digitimes newspaper last week reported that Taiwanese companies were starting to assemble a 7-inch iPad for Apple.

The Economic Daily reports that Taiwanese companies have won a number of component contracts for the iPad 2. Chimei Innolux will supply 7-inch LCD screens, which use the same IPS (in-plane switching) technology found in the original iPad, which improves viewing angles and color on LCD screens. Touchscreen technology for the screens will come from Cando Corporation, the report says.

Apple has also tapped Compal Electronics, one of the world's largest contract laptop computer makers, to assemble the new iPad, the report says.

The companies named in the Economic Daily report declined to comment. Contract manufacturers and component makers normally do not reveal what products they're working on because failure to maintain secrecy can cause them to miss out on future contracts.

SAP AG (Sap, SAP.XE), which is preparing for a November intellectual-property trial against Oracle Corp. (ORCL), has asked the court for a gag order in the case.

Late on Friday, SAP filed an administrative motion for an order regarding counsels' extrajudicial communications, asking the court to prohibit the involved attorneys from making statements about the trial outside of court.

"Oracle's attorney first raised concerns about the issue of the lawyers involvement in publicity on the case at the end of the September 30th pretrial conference," said SAP spokesman Saswato Das. "We agreed with the position taken by their attorney and have documented our agreement with the filing of the motion."

Oracle declined to comment.

Oracle and SAP, rivals in the business-software market, have been involved in a legal battle since 2007, when Oracle alleged in a lawsuit that now-defunct SAP subsidiary, called TomorrowNow Inc., infringed on Oracle's intellectual property. The trial is scheduled to begin in federal court in Oakland, Calif., on Nov. 1.

SAP said in an August legal filing it would accept responsibility for the copyright infringement and pay restitution to Oracle, of Redwood Shores, Calif. But Walldorf, Germany-based SAP refutes Oracle's claim that Oracle likely suffered more than $1 billion in damages.

SAP's motion concerning extrajudicial communications in large part springs from a recent incident involving the New York Times in which Times reporter Joe Nocera sharply criticized Leo Apotheker, who was named CEO at PC maker Hewlett-Packard Co. (HPQ) on Sept. 30. Nocera implied that Apotheker, a longtime SAP executive who was briefly the German company's chief executive, would have known about TomorrowNow's copyright infringement while he was at SAP. It suggested that the Palo Alto, Calif.-based H-P should not be so critical of Mark Hurd --its former CEO--given the circumstances outlined in the lawsuit.

After the Times article ran, H-P's incoming chairman, Ray Lane, defended Apotheker in a widely circulate letter to the Times. Then it emerged that Nocera's fiance is the communications director at Boies, Schiller & Flexner, a law firm representing Oracle in the lawsuit.

"The episode involving the New York Times article--coupled with Oracle's counsel's refusal to eschew publicity efforts during trial despite recognizing that jurors may not heed a court instruction not to read press coverage--leads to this motion," SAP's motion says.

The circumstances call attention to a case of musical chairs among top executives at Oracle, H-P and SAP. Apotheker, who now runs H-P, used to run SAP. Lane used to be Oracle's president and chief operating officer, but now is on H-P's board. Last month, Oracle Chief Executive Larry Ellison hired Hurd, H-P's former CEO, to be a co-president at Oracle.

The filing also comes amid deterioration in the decades-old partnership between Oracle and H-P, two Silicon Valley powerhouses. Signs of strain first appeared last year when Oracle announced its acquisition of Sun Microsystems Inc., a maker of computer servers that compete with products from H-P.

But the trouble accelerated rapidly as Hurd left H-P amid questions over his personal conduct in August. At the time, Ellison said H-P had made "the worst personnel decision since the idiots on the Apple board fired Steve Jobs many years ago."

Ellison further antagonized H-P when he hired Hurd, prompting a lawsuit from H-P the following day. The suit has since settled.

Then when H-P hired Apotheker, Ellison wrote in an email to the Wall Street Journal that "HP had several good internal candidates... but instead they pick a guy who was recently fired because he did such a bad job of running SAP."

At that time, an H-P spokeswoman said Ellison's comments don't "deserve the dignity of a response."

On Friday, SAP shares closed up 1.2% to $53.15. Oracle closed up 0.6% to $28.99, while H-P was up 1.1% to $42.87.

No, you’re not dreaming: after months of speculations, rumors and leaks, HP has finally announced the Slate 500 — with a twist: it’s meant for business, not for consumers (though anyone can buy one if they’re willing to fork over 800 bucks). In that sense, I don’t think it can be thought as competition for the iPad, but if designed correctly, it might be way more useful in a professional settings (say, a hospital) than the iPad.

The HP Slate 500 packs a 1.86GHz Intel Atom Z540 processor, 2GB of RAM, and a 64GB SSD under its 8.9-inch touchscreen, as well as 2 cameras and a special stylus, since yes, you can take notes with the Slate! Its Wacom active digitizer lets you use your stylus to do pretty much anything you want, if you don’t like handling touchscreens with your fingers. That, among others, definitely sets the Slate apart from most other tablets out there.

Adobe Systems is targeting mobiles, TVs, and app-stores with new editions of various Flash-centric tools and its Rich Internet Application (RIA) framework.

The company has unveiled preview editions of the next Flex Framework, its Flash Builder design and development environment, the Flash Catalyst design tool, and version 2.5 of its Adobe Integrated Runtime (AIR). Previews are due at Adobe's annual MAX conference in Los Angeles, California, with final code promised for sometime in 2011.

The software isn't yet working on Microsoft's Windows Phone 7 because Adobe missed a cut-off date for the release of Microsoft's latest mobile operating system, launched this month. Adobe is still working with Microsoft to deliver AIR on Windows Phone 7, Adobe toldThe Reg.

Flex Framework and Flash Builder will be updated to work on Apple's tablet-tastic iOS in an unspecified follow-on release, but Flex Catalyst won't be making the move.

Adobe said it picked the Blackberry tablet because RIM is being very aggressive and "really wants to get into the game."

Adobe and prime tablet provider Apple have had a major falling out during 2010, as Steve Jobs lambasted Flash, championed HTML5 as the Flash alternative, and went to extraordinary lengths to confuse developers and exclude Flash from the iPad.

As it now stands, Flash can cross compile on iOS, but Adobe must use native code for the runtime on Apple. On non-Apple devices, AIR is the runtime.

Some of us get our best ideas in the weirdest of places. Whether it's on a train heading into town or while we're on the run (literally), many of these ideas quickly slip away before we have a chance to grab a pen and paper.

Evernote, thankfully, turned your phone into a nearly perfect thought-recording device. Whether you prefer typing notes, taking pictures, or recording audio, Evernote makes it super-easy to capture any idea in real time, and then sync it with your computer (Mac/PC), iPhone or Android.

However, it's not perfect. The app lacks any kind of sorting or organization tool for your notes. Plus, the app is useless without an always-on Internet connection and an Evernote account.

Finally, older notes sometimes have the nagging habit of being unavailable.The folks at Evernote Corp. have pledged gobs of cash to upgrade and extend the capabilities of this popular application, however, so we'll probably see all of these issues resolved in the coming months.

For now, it's worth your time to install and get comfortable with the app. After all, when pen and paper are unavailable, we all need to record those million-dollar ideas somehow. And your trusty Droid is always with you, ready to serve.
