  • Ford adds GPS-enhanced 911 location awareness to its Sync system

    Posted on June 3, 2010 | No Comments
    Ford's Sync system is a fantastic application suite capable of a seemingly endless amount of functions. The system currently provides navigation, traffic info, voice commands, Internet radio, and a 911 Assist mode that automatically dials 911 in case of an accident and provides emergency dispatchers with an approximate location from the connected phone's GPS or through signal triangulation. That's the old 911 Assist, though. Most of the 2011 Ford and Lincoln models take safety up level. The new and improved 911 Assist mode improves the accuracy thanks to a dedicated onboard GPS module. Even with the new capabilities, the whole Sync system remains subscription free. You just need to provide the Bluetooth cell phone.

That being the multi-touch support.

    Take-down notices going after Microsoft Cofee

    You'll recall that CrunchGear broke the news regarding the leak of Microsoft Cofee, a suite of applications used by law enforcement officials for their own devices. The leak came from a popular BitTorrent site, and then spread to The Pirate Bay and all over the Internet. Needless to say, it's “out there.” So good luck to Microsoft in trying to stop its spread.

    This is the BrailleNote Apex. It's a device that the blind/visually impaired (I'm not sure which term is the more acceptable one) can use to, as the name and photo implies, take notes. It runs Windows CE 6, which this type of device usually runs, and, is aimed at students and the like.
