It was a smooth ride switching to a dedicated server. It’s all live now. Ping us if you see anything broken.


The Stanza app is a program for the iPhone which is an eBook reader. It is slick software, easy to use, and allows you to load books via USB cable. Well, it did.
The latest update from iTunes for the Stanza app indicates the USB connectivity feature will be removed from the application. So if you want it, don’t update it.
The Washington Post called the maker, Lexcycle, and asked about the details and their spokes person said, “[Lexcycle is] forbidden from discussing the specifics of the conversations with Apple on this matter.”
It’s fair to say that Apple is keeping complete control of the device so that additional storage [non iTunes content] cannot be loaded along with reducing any virus possibilities hitch-hiking in via removable storage.

USB Voltage: – Supplied voltage by a host or a powered hub ports is between 4.75 V and 5.25 V. – Maximum voltage drop for bus-powered hubs is 0.35 V from it’s host or hub to the hubs output port. – All hubs and functions must be able to send configuration data at 4.4 V, but only low-power functions need to be working at this voltage. – Normal operational voltage for functions is minimum 4.75 V. Power usage: -Bus-powered hubs: Draw Max 100 mA at power up and 500 mA normally. -Self-powered hubs: Draw Max 100 mA, must supply 500 mA to each port. -Low power, bus-powered functions: Draw Max 100 mA. -High power, bus-powered functions: Self-powered hubs: Draw Max 100 mA, must supply 500 mA to each port. -Self-powered functions: Draw Max 100 mA.I believe something more happened and the parent is trying to cover something up. A better explanation is the laptop was plugged into the wall and the child pulled the power cord out of the laptop and put it into her mouth, meanwhile the mother was far away doing something else [say cooking dinner].

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Jungo Ltd., a leading provider of connectivity systems and driver development tools, today announced the release of its ZeroDriver software, which enhances the user experience by enabling seamless connectivity between USB data cards (both 3G and 4G) and any laptop or PC, without the need to install drivers or applications on the host PC.
“We are pleased Jungo supports USB technology, by extending the simplicity and broad capabilities of USB to its customers.â€
ZeroDriver supports all data card features that in the past have required drivers or additional applications, including dial-up and high speed browsing, voice calls, SMS, diagnostics, network statistics and more.
Equipping a data card with ZeroDriver is a highly cost-effective and user-friendly solution, for example, it reduces installation support calls to a minimum, maximizing user satisfaction and in turn, increasing ARPU. With support for HSPA+ bandwidth standards, ZeroDriver is fast and extremely flexible – it is easily ported to a variety of hardware mobile platforms.
ZeroDriver is currently available for Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 and is compatible with a wide range of PC applications, including Internet Explorer, Firefox, MS Office, Thunderbird and more. Future versions will support Mac and Linux. ZeroDriver is also available in “installation mode” for operators who want to offer enhanced system support.
“Due to its ease of use and global availability, USB has become the standard interface between mobile broadband modems and PCs,” said Jeff Ravencraft, president and chairman, USB Implementers Forum. “We are pleased Jungo supports USB technology, by extending the simplicity and broad capabilities of USB to its customers.”

At first glance we became very excited about this 80 port USB board, we thought it was a huge USB hub. Then we read the details and realized it’s just an 80 port USB power source. And we say “just” with all the enthusiasm that word can carry. Wicked awesome from our point of view.

We’ve done the math and have still come up short on the exact NEED for the 80 port USB power board, but never-the-less, it makes you smile. Kinda like the iPad [even without USB support].
Our calculations seem to bring us back to quality control, that is the only legitimate reason why this board would be of “true” value.
Thanko is offering the USB power board for $165.

I have two questions, please answer on Facebook: 1) do you need this? 2) what is a legit use for this other than QC testing for some USB gadget?

Nexcopy’s CF duplication systems boast unique features designed to streamline data loading tasks. For instance, users can easily assign unique files to each CF card using the Unique Data Copy function. Additionally, bootable Compact Flash cards can be copied effortlessly using the bit-for-bit Short Image copy function. This function ensures that only the data clusters used on the CF card are copied to the target devices, rather than the entire contents.
Moreover, Nexcopy offers a Full Image copy function for scenarios where it is required. This feature proves beneficial for Ext2 or Ext3 Linux formats, where files could potentially reside in any sector of the CF media.
Nexcopy Inc.’s CF Duplicator line begins with the CF150PC model priced at $1,200, with an upgrade path available to the 30-port and 45-port systems. Thus, the CF Duplicator boasts a modular design.
Nexcopy also highlights the flexibility to mix and match duplicator boxes. This enables users to copy to SD media, CF media, and USB sticks simultaneously through a single software interface, providing convenience and efficiency.
The Drive Manager software offers six copy modes to cater to various user needs. These modes include:

CompactFlash (CF) cards serve various purposes, primarily for storing digital data in a myriad of devices requiring high-capacity and high-performance storage solutions. Although their popularity has somewhat diminished with the rise of other storage formats like SD cards and SSDs, CF cards find utility in diverse applications, including:
Digital Cameras: CF cards have long been the choice of professional photographers and enthusiasts, used in digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras and high-end digital cameras. Their ample storage capacities and rapid read/write speeds make them suitable for capturing high-resolution images and recording high-definition video.
Video Cameras and Camcorders: CF cards are commonplace in professional video cameras and camcorders, facilitating the recording of high-quality video footage. Their swift data transfer rates and reliability make them perfect for capturing high-definition video in demanding production environments.
Embedded Systems and Industrial Applications: CF cards find frequent use in embedded systems, industrial computers, and electronic devices necessitating robust and dependable storage solutions. Their resilience, generous storage capacities, and resistance to shock, vibration, and extreme temperatures render them fitting for use in harsh operating conditions.
Data Storage and Transfer: CF cards are employed for general-purpose data storage and transfer across various devices, including computers, laptops, digital audio recorders, and handheld devices. They can store documents, music, videos, software, and other digital files.
Gaming Consoles and Arcade Machines: CF cards have been integrated into certain gaming consoles, arcade machines, and gaming peripherals for storing game data, firmware updates, and other content. While not as prevalent as SD cards or internal storage, CF cards have carved out niche applications in select gaming systems.
Medical Devices and Equipment: CF cards find utility in medical devices and equipment, such as medical imaging devices, patient monitoring systems, and diagnostic equipment. Their reliability, compatibility, and storage capacity render them suitable for storing medical data and images.
