Techno-splendor is made in Taiwan (specifically by the computer geeks at National Taiwan University). Awesome, geek-tastic news. Details:
National Taiwan University announced their latest invention System on a Chip (SOC) . . . the smallest such product at the lowest cost and consuming the least electricity. The NTU research team claims that the transmission speed of the chip is 100 times as fast as WiFi and 350 times as fast as a 3.5G cell phone.
Jri Lee, professor of the NTU Graduate Institute of Electronics Engineering . . . indicated that the chip size has been reduced to 0.5 millimeter, one-tenth of that of existing chips, and the cost is less than one-tenth of the traditional communication module and could be further lowered to only US$1. When used in portable communications products the chip should have a huge market.
. . . According to Lee, the new chip can download a 4G DVD film to a computer in ten seconds, whereas it took ADSL 1.5 hours, WiFi 2 hours and Bluetooth 4.5 hours to complete the task. IBM Corporation and U.C. Berkeley have been conducting similar research, but the SOC the NTU research team invented has the highest speed to date.
Oh, man. TECH LUST!
