Mobile professionals no longer have to worry about obstructed USB ports or toting numerous USB cables with IOGEAR's new 3-Port USB 2.0 Mobile Hub with Built-in Mini-USB Cable (GUH276). The product comes with an integrated mini-USB cord and three evenly-spaced, upward-facing USB ports that prevent blockage to other outlets when a user connects a large dongle or flash drive to another port.
For students on-the-go on campus or traveling professionals, the product has a built-in mini-USB cable to charge and transfer content from their cell phones, MP3 players and other USB devices without needing an extra cord. This eliminates the need for users to take several cables wherever they go. The cord easily tucks away in a ridge along the side of the device for convenience.
Road warriors who don't have enough USB ports on their laptops can benefit from the 3-Port USB 2.0 Mobile Hub with Built-in Mini-USB Cable's convenient design that aligns three high-speed USB 2.0 ports along the top of the product with ample space between to ensure clear entry to every port. It integrates a regular USB cord that also easily clips along the edge of the device.
Thomson announced today that it has established the first Blu-ray Disc Association approved Blu-ray Disc Testing Center in the United States. Located in Burbank, CA, the test center has been categorized as a ‘content verifier’ and has been given the task of testing commercial content for the BDA.
Thomson (Paris:18453) (NYSE:TMS) – the worldwide leader in video solutions for the Communication, Media & Entertainment (CME) industries – through its Technicolor Business Group, today announced it has established the first Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA)-approved Blu-ray Disc Testing Center in the United States at its Burbank location.
Because Blu-ray Discs feature cutting edge video, audio, and interactive features (BD-Jive and BD-Live), a sophisticated level of testing is required to ensure compatibility and flawless operation of all players available on the market before the discs are publicly released. Technicolor’s test center is categorized as a ‘content verifier’ testing facility, approved by the BDA and tasked with testing commercial audiovisual (AV) content for the Association.
Technicolor, as an expert in Blu-ray Disc production, recognizes the need for improved quality control and format verification for Blu-ray Discs to ensure better compatibility and performance. The creation of a testing center directly addresses the demand by studios and content producers to create a knowledge center for improving disc compatibility and performance, and accelerate the release of Blu-ray Disc titles into the market.
