The Sony Ericsson T303 is a move away from Sony Ericssons recent releases that offer the latest in mobile technology but is sure to be a hit with those people who are after a distinctive handset with great aesthetics that will not cost the earth.

Initially released on pay monthly and pay as you go deals in the UK the Sony Ericsson T303 pink edition has plenty of packages available including a range of free gifts and some money saving line rental discounts.

The Pink Sony T303 is a phone for those on a budget but do not want to skip on style, its small dimensions and pink finish make it an ideal present for young women out on the town as well as ladies that lunch in two for a fiver venues.

One of the most critical factors for any successful uninterruptible power supply installation is how it is project managed; transported to site and installed. The technology could be the best in the world but if logistics and installation are left to chance, disaster may strike.

Not many businesses today can ride through unplanned downtime. Chances are, that’s what would happen if project and installation are mismanaged. UPS power protection loads will need to be powered down for as long as it takes to reconnect them to the output supply of the newly commissioned system and this will vary depending upon the complexity of the project, type, size and number of loads. Disruption to business can be minimised with sound planning and good management.

The Importance of Site Surveys. Installing UPS without a site survey is like running blindfold along a busy street. With little idea as to obstructions, direction or potential hazards, it is only a matter of moments before disaster strikes.

A UPS site survey consists of a set of fairly standard questions to establish specific information and areas for further investigation. It is typically a non-charged-for service provided by a qualified and experienced UPS supplier who will investigate logistical, environmental and electrical issues.

Logistics. Logistical issues centre on how the UPS and all associated equipment will be transported and delivered to site, positioned, unpacked and the suitability of its final location. It will consider restrictions or obstacles inside and outside of the building (whether it is a basement or upper floor location where stairs may be involved, for example), whether local authority parking permissions or Police attendance are needed for off-loading and what security and health and safety issues (as in the case of a chemical plant) need to be complied with.

UPS suppliers offer two categories of delivery: kerbside only and delivery, siting and positioning. Kerbside delivery is for smaller UPS (up to 40kg) that can be dropped of by the supplier to a central point within a site to be positioned thereafter by site staff or commissioning engineers.

Delivery, siting and positioning is a specialised service whereby the delivery company employs vehicles with tail-lifts and carries equipment such as trolleys and stair climbers. Larger UPS systems – including battery packs (pre-assembled or in kit form) will be supplied on pallets and require an on-site forklift.

Environment and Location. Environmental issues concern the specific location of the UPS and its associated system parts. This includes factors affecting its performance and operation; physical space, floor loading, ambient temperature, noise attenuation, vibration, dust and humidity, lighting levels and so forth.

Unless physical space is assessed, and the needs of the UPS in terms of air flow considered, the result may be a lack of space that may result in inadequate heat dissipation. Provision also has to be made for easy access for maintenance and inspection and connection and removal of loads and monitoring cables.

Floor loading can be an issue, particularly in computing environments, as many computer rooms employ false floors to allow air ducts for air-conditioning. In terms of UPS and associated battery strings, this may require the use of extendible false legs, placement on raised floor pedestals or a spreader plate to even out weight distribution.

Remote or split locations must be planned for in terms of how the UPS will be monitored. Uninterruptible power supplies generate a range of alarm conditions indicating an immediate or potential failure. Split locations may require additional cabling, monitoring and access. The same would apply if switchgear is to be housed in another area of the site or building.

Electrical Installation. Investigations into electrical installation are primarily concerned with suitability, protection, discrimination and compliance to regulations – both upstream of the UPS and downstream load connections.

The electrical supplies within a UPS system must integrate seamlessly with those already on site and not interfere with other equipment. The site survey will identify the scope of any electrical work, which must be carried out by certified and registered electrical engineers in accordance with local, national and organisation-specific guidelines.

In addition, whether the installation is low or high power rated, it is mandatory that live conductors must be protected from overloads, short-circuits and earth faults.

Testing and Certification. The installation of a hardwired UPS, regardless of whether changes have been made to upstream or downstream circuits, requires the issuing of an Electrical Installations Certificate by a certified electrical contractor. Testing regimes vary, depending upon the UPS size and accessories installed alongside, but include earth fault loop impedance testing.

A UPS cannot provide the same quantity of energy, which is readily available from a normal mains power supply. The value returned from an earth loop impedance test will reflect the impedance of the UPS inverter. The two normal operation states of the UPS (mains present and mains power supply) must be taken into account when using earth fault loop impedance testing to determine fault currents and protective device discrimination.

It is true to say that innovative and sophisticated UPS technology is advantageous but without correct, appropriate and diligent project management, logistics and installation processes, it could be rendered useless. It is worth taking the time and necessary steps at the outset of any uninterruptible power supply project to determine what needs to be done to bring it to a successful completion.

With all the technology available to us, there’s no excuse for getting the family lost in an unfamiliar place or stuck in hours of traffic on holidays. GPS is a great devise for in-car use and it’s just as useful when on foot plus it’s a great way to get around a foreign city too. With GPS Rental services this device became even more available and useful. Drivers can find their way through city streets; long reserve trekkers and hikers use the technology to navigate unfamiliar terrain. GPS devices are even more helpful for planning a trip, whether it’s a cross-country trek or a hopscotch tour of your routine stops.

But GPS not only gets you from point A to point B with minimum hassle, it also makes your holiday come alive; with ways to plan your itinerary, track down the best restaurants, and make your holiday more enjoyable.

Here’s a few handy GPS travel tips to help you get the most out of the holiday and avoid the travel woes.

GPS TIPS

1. If you intend to rely on your GPS unit, take time to learn it before needing it. Get the manual out, work with setting waypoints and determining position. This will save you time on the road and prevent you from loading incorrect information or deleting valuable information by mistake.

2. Ensure that you install the maps prior to travel. This will enable you to browse and test the maps prior to embarking on your trip. Make sure you are familiar with the route calculation settings of your device.

3. Power is an issue. All GPS models will need to be recharged. Make sure you have enough batteries for the trip or pack a universal adapter in your luggage. Battery life of GPS devices vary, so it is important to have a cigarette lighter charger as you do not want to run out of juice when you are on the road.

4. Avoid leaving GPS device mounted on the windshield in a hot car for long periods of time. It is also a good way to prevent the device from being stolen, since even leaving the window screen mount in view is an advertisement that a GPS device may be in the car.

5. Most car navigation systems include an extensive POI database including restaurants along the interstate. Choose the cuisine you want and your GPS will display a list of results by proximity. Filter out only those along your route and your forward seeking food radar will update faster.

6. Some GPS devices also contain useful travel advice which can be very helpful if you are unfamiliar with road rules in other countries. For example, some device menus contain guides for multiple countries and cover local road rules, public holidays, accommodation advice and more.

7. When navigating to a place, it may be easier to search for a place by name rather than address. For example if you wish to visit the British Museum in London you can find it listed under museums as a point of interest and be able to navigate there without knowing the exact address.

8. And most importantly, make sure you dust off your GPS-knowledge and get the upper hand on your pending trip before you embark. Just be smart and make good use of your GPS.

Uninterruptible power supply batteries play a central role in a power continuity plan providing a dc supply of electricity to the UPS inverter when mains power supply fails. UPS batteries utilise a chemical process to produce and store energy. When they age or become damaged they can corrode and leak potentially harmful toxins into their environment. Over time their efficiency also deteriorates. For these reasons UPS batteries must be stored and disposed of in compliance with a number of UK and European directives, most particularly in the UK the Environmental Protection Act 1990. Hazardous Waste Regulations 2005 also apply.

A battery block is a self-contained, electro-chemical device that stores electrical energy for later use. The outer case is usually constructed of polypropylene PVC (which may be flame retardant) and has two protruding terminals (positive and negative). Inside, positive and negative plates are immersed in an electrolyte, typically Sulphuric Acid, to form cells with electrical potential. This is where a voltage is created and then stored when a charging current is applied.

The most common type of battery used in uninterruptible power supplies is Sealed Lead-Acid but there are others: Nickel-Cadmium, for example, or Lithium Ion and Silver Alkaline.

UPS Battery Storage: a battery will age and discharge even when not in use. The typical storage life of a battery is six to 12 months and this very much depends upon the environment in which it is stored, particularly ambient temperature. A battery’s internal discharge rate will also affect its aging process. Without charge over longer periods, battery performance will reduce.

The most important factor for preserving the life of UPS batteries is temperature; the ideal is a constant 20-25 °C (UPS battery life is halved for every five degrees above or below this level). To maintain temperature, a UPS and UPS battery set (particularly those running in crowded data centres) require an effective cooling system, which is a factor to be considered during uninterruptible power supply specification.

For uninterruptible power supply distributors care must be taken to monitor the actual time the UPS and batteries are left without charge as this can lead to deep discharge and potentially result in the need for a full battery set replacement.

UK and European Directives for Controlling Storage and Disposal of UPS Batteries

- Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive 2002/96/EC

EU End-of-Life (ELV’s) Directive (September 2000)

- EU Batteries Directive (May 2006)

Batteries are classed as hazardous waste due to their toxic components. In essence batteries cannot simply be ‘thrown away’ or entered into landfill. They must be disposed of in a manner that is protective of the environment and to comply with the law in most countries this should be carried out by companies licensed to perform such tasks on behalf of manufacturers (who bear the ultimate responsibility). Riello UPS is one such uninterruptible supply manufacturer that is also licensed to dispose of UPS batteries. Working with a UPS provider with ISO 14001 provides peace of mind especially if they are licensed to carry waste. They will in turn work alongside a licensed disposal company and thus ensure that they growing requirement for uninterruptible power supplies does not harm the environment.

Ever since the Nintendo Wii video game console was introduced in the global market it has taken the world by storm. In the beginning Microsoft Xbox 360 managed to sell more units than Nintendo Wii in the month of September, Nintendo Wii soon overtook Microsoft to reach the top spot for the number of units sold.

Nintendo overtook Microsoft in October when 519,000 units of the game console were sold while Microsoft managed to sell only 366,000 units.

However in terms of revenue Microsoft has overtaken Nintendo Wii. Microsoft earned $354 million in revenue from sales of its video game console while Nintendo managed to earn $246 million for its Wii model and $116 million for its PS3 model.

The third major competitor Sony has also done exceptionally well for itself as it launched newer models. On the other hand the Nintendo Wii has done exceptionally well as it faces supply problems from different quarters of the world.

Though the company should be proud that demand is more than supply it is trying to close the gap by finding out more ways than one to increase considerable from their current capacity of manufacturing 1.8 million units per month.

The Nintendo Wii is becoming a real competitor to the seventh generation gaming systems like Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Sony’s PlayStation 3. The Nintendo Wii was introduced as the successor of Nintendo GameCube. The game console has some great features which has helped it reach the number one spot.

The console has a wireless controller (which is powerful) as well as Wii remote that can be held in the hand and used as a pointing device. This device can detect acceleration in three dimensions making your gaming experience as realistic as possible. Through the WiiConnect24 you are able to receive updates over the internet when the console is in standby mode.

The Nintendo Wii won a lot of accolades and awards at the E3 press conference in 2006. The console was launched in four key markets by December 2006. And in September 2007 the Financial Times declared the Nintendo Wii as the market leader in its category. Today the monthly sales of the console remain better than all its competitors.

In fact reports show that the console has managed to sell more units in USA than Microsoft and Sony combined in the first half of 2007. Nintendo Wii also leads in Japan where it outsells both the consoles of its competitors at a ratio of 3:1 to 6:1 respectively every week.

Even in Australia the Nintendo Wii replaced Microsoft Xbox 360 from the top slot with record sales. Hence today the console has become the leader in all the markets it has established its presence. In fact reports suggest that Nintendo has warned that units will be in short supply throughout 2007.

Microsoft and Sony have known to suffer losses from selling their consoles and have high hopes that software sales will turn the tide n their favor. However Nintendo claims to have optimized production costs as a result of which it is earning good margin on every console sold to the customer.
