"SmartBand Talk is a powerful lifelogger, built for users who live life to the fullest". Thats how the maker captioned the device on their official blog. Indeed it is one of the very decent wearable we have personally seen in the recent times, which brings in the smaller 1.4-inches e-paper display, which is a low-power consuming but highly visible and clear panel, that will screen the user with every details of activity from the aforementioned Lifelog application, as well as show you with relevant notifications from other apps, synced with the handset. The unit also features call functionality and a number of fitness tracking capabilities. As said above, the SmartBand Talk attributes Sonys fresh HD Voice and integrated Voice Control technology, with built-in microphone and speaker for great and clear conversation over the phone calls.

The incorporated accelerometer and altimeter sensor in the new Sony SmartBand Talk, will provide its users with a complete track record of accurate overview about your daily fitness activities, including walking, running and even climbing. The SmartBand brings you all the collected data information pulled from your smartphone to its e-paper display screen, when you feel to review your fitness over times.

Speed Up Your Internet By 20

Hai man here is an amazing way to speed up your slow internet connection to some extend by follow a simple procedure as mentioned below,

Microsoft reserves 20% of your available bandwidth for their own purposes like Windows Updates and interrogating your PC etc.

You can get it back:

Click Start then Run and type "gpedit.msc" without quotes. This opens the group policy editor.Then go to:
  • Local Computer Policy
  • Computer Configuration
  • Administrative Templates
  • Network
  • QOS Packet Scheduler
  • Limit Reservable Bandwidth.
Double click on Limit Reservable bandwidth.

It will say it is not configured, but the truth is under the Explain tab i.e." By default, the Packet Scheduler limits the system to 20 percent of the bandwidth of a connection, but you can use this setting to override the default."

So the trick is to ENABLE reservable bandwidth, then set it to ZERO. This will allow the system to reserve nothing, rather than the default 20%.It works on Win 2000 as well.
