Brady, a leading manufacturer and marketer of label printing systems and materials, has introduced its newest stand alone portable label printer: the BMP51 Label Maker. This printer features a large backlit display screen, easy-to-use label design applications, a QWERTY keyboard and connectivity options for wireless printing.

“The BMP51 Label Maker is the perfect printer for customers who need to make labels on the go,” said Annie Ropella, product specialist for Brady’s portable printers. “It’s packed with features that help customers save time and make their labels faster and easier.”

According to Ropella, the BMP51 Label Maker features material recognition and automatic label formatting, which eliminates the need to calibrate the printer at start up. Other time-saving features include automatic font sizing, high speed print (one inch per second), and USB PC connectivity for advanced label design with Brady’s LabelMark™ Software. Customers can choose from three different power supply options: AA batteries, AC power supply, or a rechargeable lithium-ion battery.

Another exciting feature is the printer’s easy-to-load cartridges: they are top-loading cartridges and they contain both the label material and ribbon. The cover also protects the print head from dust and debris, prolonging the life of the product. Overall, this innovative design expedites the process for installing or removing supplies, and ensures that customers always have the correct ribbon for their selected label material.

The BMP51 Label Maker also offers a variety of material options: it has over 190 different label cartridges to choose from, and prints on label materials up to 1.5 inches wide.

These connectivity options, combined with Brady’s new Mobile Apps, give customers the ability to design and print labels wirelessly using their Android smart phones.

W3 Mobile has just finished development of the Live Gooroo App, and it’s good news for users with PC troubles. Users don’t have to be a tech savvy “Gooroo” either. The app has a very user-friendly interface and provides helpful FAQs and support resources to assist users. It has multiple programs for diagnosing and repairing computers and includes anti-virus and anti-spyware utilities.

With Live Gooroo™, users can save time, cut costs and fix issues themselves through an automated computer repair process. Live Gooroo provides a simple menu for users to fix problems and optimize performance on their computers with just the tap of a button. This new Mobile App is the first of its kind and has some very useful repair utilities for PCs.

Automation is the key. The simple button commands in the app do all the work for users without the usual point, click, open and download. More importantly, the mobile device is running on a separate OS protected from viruses, problems and inconsistencies of desktop troubleshooting and has a knowledge base of resources at your fingertips.

An important component of this technology relies on the targeted toolset of repair routines. We developed a set of routines to handle most of the day to day issues that affect computers. This includes performance, Windows errors, memory, storage problems, security, software, hardware, viruses and spyware.

appMobi (www.appmobi.com) today announced public beta availability of playMobi™, a cross-platform HTML5-based game development, deployment, and monetization SDK. playMobi gives HTML5 game developers an elegant JavaScript API solution to the many issues they face, including user authentication, in-game payments, social player engagement, scoring and leaderboard management. The core technology of playMobi is based on TapJs, which pioneered the social network category for HTML5 games and was acquired by appMobi in 2011. Developers can apply to join the playMobi beta program at www.appmobi.com/playmobi.

“With a single JavaScript API, playMobi gives HTML5 game developers all the tools they need to create interesting and socially engaging games that run on iOS, Android and Facebook platforms,” said Sam Abadir, CTO of appMobi. “playMobi includes slick in-app purchasing capabilities based on appMobi’s patent-pending ‘1Touch’ technology, making the experience very simple and highly secure. playMobi leverages the rapidly expanding HTML5 platform, offering game developers the unique ability to ‘write it once’ and deploy the same code to iOS, Android, Facebook, and the open Web — fully compliant with each platform’s terms of service.”

Scirra is the developer of “Construct 2,” a leading HTML5 game development environment. Director Ashley Gullen said, “Like appMobi, Scirra believes HTML5 is the gaming platform of the future. We’re excited by the potential of cross-platform IAP, leaderboards and achievements. We look forward to making playMobi really easy to use in games made with Construct 2.”

One interface enables In-App Purchases for all platforms
In an industry “first,” playMobi enables cross-platform in-app purchasing with its 1Touch in-app payment system. When a player makes a purchase, playMobi automatically completes the transaction using the correct in-app-purchase backend system, based on the device in use. When running on iOS, playMobi uses iTunes; on Android, Google Payments; on Facebook, Facebook Credits; and on the Open Web, PayPal. By providing a simple JavaScript programming interface that seamlessly supports e-commerce on the four most popular mobile gaming platforms, playMobi eliminates a huge headache for game developers who want to make money with their games.

Built-in Social Player Engagement Features – Interactive Leaderboards & Badges
playMobi includes social gaming tools that game developers can use to increase the “stickiness” of their games. User login is simple and easy using Facebook Connect. Tools are also provided to create and manage leaderboards, game achievements, player analytics, and cloud-based storage of game status and inventory.

Game Levels, Scores and Inventories Saved across Multiple Devices, even Across Platforms
Because today’s casual gamers increasingly play on multiple devices (both mobile and desktop), playMobi enables multi-device and even multi-platform social game play, supporting HTML5 Web-based games, Facebook games, and iOS and Android hybrid games created with PhoneGap or appMobi. For example, with playMobi, the achievement level and high score from a player’s lunchtime session on his iOS iPhone game will be in place when he plays the Facebook version of the game later on his home laptop. playMobi’s cross device/cross platform social gaming capability is another industry “first.”

Game Analytics Let Developers “Look Over Players’ Shoulders” to Improve Gameplay
playMobi gives HTML5 game developers important new insight into how their games are actually being played. Detailed analytics can be captured as the game is played, isolating trouble spots or levels that are too easy. Because high-score cheating is an issue on the open Web, playMobi allows developers to create rules-based checks on posted scores, eliminating most score hacks and protecting leaderboard validity. Integrating playMobi analytics into a game is simply a matter of adding the playMobi JavaScript library and a few lines of JavaScript code.

playMobi complements appMobi’s existing HTML5 gaming technology, which includes directCanvas, multiSound, and directBox2D, forming an integrated, high performance platform that creates games that perform well as native iOS and Android app store games on Facebook and on the open mobile Web. playMobi is being offered free of charge to a limited number of developers during a short testing phase. Interested developers can sign up for the beta program at www.appmobi.com/playmobi.

Canon today unveils its new SELPHY compact photo printer, the SELPHY CP810, designed to make photo-lab quality printing on the move, or at home, quick and easy. Replacing the SELPHY CP800, the new model offers a number of improvements, boasting a slimmer, compact and more portable design, expanded creative features and improved usability.

The SELPHY CP810 is ideal for those looking for a convenient printer that delivers high quality prints in less than a minute¹. The lightweight, portable design also provides a suitable option for business users who want to offer on-the-spot ID Photos or instant photo printing services.

Photos can be printed directly from a range of compatible memory cards, or from any PictBridge-compatible device, such as a camera or camcorder. The SELPHY CP810 can also print from USB flash memory sticks or from mobile phones via the integrated USB port, enabling instant output without the need for a computer.

Easy operation
For enhanced viewing and operation, a tilting 6.8 cm (2.7”) colour LCD screen features at the heart of the SELPHY CP810 operation. With support for 13 languages, images can be viewed easily and printed with a simple press of a button.

Lab-quality prints, wherever you are
To produce the best prints, the improved Auto Image Optimizer function increases the quality of the print output compared to the quality of the original digital image, recognising scenes and improving the subject by making specific adjustments – for example controlling the brightness or contrast. In addition, a selectable Smooth Skin effect evens out skin blemishes for more flattering portraits, and manual brightness adjustment can be applied to fine-tune the prints produced.

By using dye sublimation technology, the SELPHY CP810 gives images superb depth and gradation of colour, providing a similar look and feel to traditional photo lab prints without the wait. Prints are dry and ready for handling the second they leave the printer, resistant to scratches, spills and fading. The SELPHY CP810 is capable of producing postcard (148 x 100mm), L (119 x 89mm), and credit card (86 x 54mm) sized prints in super-quick time, on a range of Canon photographic media. The SELPHY CP810 also offers a range of image layout options, including the ID Photo layout which enables users to print a range of standard or custom-sized ID Photo images on a single sheet of paper.

The SELPHY CP810 offers portable printing and has an optional NB-CP2L battery pack, giving the ability to print instantly whilst on the move. Ensuring that the printer is only portable when needed, a security cable, such as a Kensington lock, can also be attached to the added security slot on the printer body, while an optional Dust Protection Cover protects the printer and consumables when operating in dusty environments.

Join the CANON iMAGE GATEWAY community
Owners of the new Canon SELPHY CP810 can also join the newly updated CANON iMAGE GATEWAY, an online facility for sharing photos and video, now providing up to 10 GB of personal storage capacity, perfect for storing many photos, even in full resolution.

The path to finding funding for a high tech start-up is well charted. Find a venture capitalist or an angel investor who likes your idea, your website or new high tech gadget, and you’re in the chips. But where do mid-tech companies go for funding?

Entrepreneurs’ Nonso Ejidike and Hugh Leh need $17,000 by February 24th to fund the final development of their product the CueTabTM (CueTab.com) a multi-function, state-of-the-art carrying and shock case for the iPad2.

Ejidike found the answer to their funding quest, “let’s ask for funding on Kickstarter.com”

Kickstarter.com is a new form of financing called Crowdfunding – the collective cooperation, attention and trust by people who network and pool their money together, usually via the Internet, in order to finance products created by others.

Leh and Ejidike think Kickstarter.com is just right for the CueTabTM.

“CueTabTM is light weight, with a sleek design and handle options that prevent iPads from slipping out of your hands and dropping. The built in stand also gives the user multiple adjustable viewing angles,” said Ejidike. It’s green, it’s colorful, it’s made in America, it’s priced right and it’s packaged in America with environmentally friendly and safe materials.

“We invested our money to research and design the product, manufacture several test CueTabsTM and create a great website to sell our cases. We have a few additions we want to make to increase the functionality of the cases and we need to make the final dies for manufacture, but we are out of money. Please go to Kickstarter.com and help us raise the money we need to make CueTabsTM in America,” said Leh.

The CueTabTM creators met at Cal State Dominguez Hills in Carson, California where Ejidike is working on a master’s degree in Environmental Studies. They got to talking about technology and designing and manufacturing products in America and came up with the CueTabTM.

Those ready to help young businessmen launch new made in a America products can go to the CueTab.com website and click on the “Pre-order now only on KickStarter.com until Feb 24th. Click here.” flashing button. Or go to Kickstarter.com and put CueTab in the search box. Supporters of $30 or more will be the first to receive one or more CueTabsTM.
