By again using the best free video conversion software and the right settings, you’ll have the best movies and videos for your Sony Ericsson P1i.
The Sony Ericsson P1i is another mobile phone which can be used to watch videos and movies because of its large screen. It has a resolution of 320×240 – 320 being its height and 240 its width. However, when you watch videos / movies using the P1i in full screen, the orientation would become landscape and the width now becomes 320 and the height becomes 240.
That’s why we’ll also be using the conversion settings of the E71 / E61i / E61 in the previous article I have written. Let’s do a quick recap:
Super Video Converter
Download first the SUPER converter from their website Erightsoft. If you’re having trouble finding the download link, you may download it at the Softpedia website. Be sure to download it from the RO location and not US.

With the extreme portability the Netbook like the EEE PC has given, is this portable DVD writer which runs only through USB connection (no AC adaptor required) worth our look?
External DVD and CD writers have been here quite a while now. However, I haven’t really been taking notice of them as I saw no reason why to get them. Although some of them were quite small already (most of them were big), they really weren’t portable as you had to lug around an AC adaptor which was sometimes, heavier than the gadget itself.
The only time I took notice, was when I saw the LG GP08-LU10 Slim External Super Multi DVD Rewriter. It attracted my attention as it claimed to be AC Adapter-less. It can run by just using the USB cable!
Let’s take a look first at its specs.

Here’s a crude guide to help you put a password to your Wireless or Wi-Fi router to prevent unauthorized access to your Internet connection.
I have a wireless router at home so that everybody can use the internet wherever they are in the house. I can still remember when I still didn’t have one and my desktop PC was the only one who had access to the Internet. All of them used my PC whenever they needed to get something done using the Internet. It was really difficult as one of us had to put off his/her work for the other one.
Once I had a wireless or Wi-Fi router, everybody now can use the internet. My brothers, sister, parents, and neighbors…
Yes… even our neighbors.
If you setup your wireless router for the Internet to be accessed by the computers or laptops of your family members, it’s more than likely that you just thought of your family members. You could’ve overlooked the possibility that your neighbors could easily access your router and your Internet connection as well.
Why is it Important to Password Protect your Wireless or Wi-Fi router?
Why? Because as you are paying for your Internet connection, and if a few of your neighbors decide to surf the net as well, the bandwidth or speed of your Internet is split or slows down. You however, notice the significant decrease of speed of your Internet connection, and blame your service provider. And the story goes on…
How to Password Protect your Wireless or Wi-Fi router in Three Steps?

Reminisce and enjoy playing once again classic Nintendo games using your Nokia or Symbian OS powered phone.
As I was waiting for my girl during her visit to the dentist, I was left with no choice but to read magazines which I had little interest of. I then saw a picture of Mario in his old form. This is not the cute big nosed cartoon like Mario we have been accustomed to nowadays, but it is the small, pixelized version of the guy. It’s the Mario which still hasn’t grabbed a mushroom to get bigger. The Mario you get at level 1-1.
It’s always nice to play old school games. They’re pretty simple but they rock! What they lack in graphics, they certainly make up with the other aspects of the game.
What you can play using the Nintendo Entertainment Sytem (NES) console 10 to 15 years ago, can now be played using only your Nokia mobile phone using the vNES emulator!
The Nintendo Entertainment System also known as…
The Family Computer

With the K-Lite Codec Pack, you can almost play any video file using only your Windows Media Player Classic.
With the several video file types existing today, it’s very hard to install just one player. What’s worse is multiple files with the same file type are sometimes encoded differently – which would then require different codecs for it to play in your media or video player.
I use the K-Lite Video Codec Pack in two of my Windows based machines and it hasn’t failed me since. It installs various codecs and uses by default the lightweight Windows application Media Player Classic in playing video files.

The “Avira Antivir Personal Edition” is an antivirus software which offers one of the best protections for viruses and Trojans – all for free.
A standard computer’s main programs include an operating system or OS (Windows, Mac, or Linux), an Office suite (Microsoft Office or Open Office), an internet browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Safari), and an Antivirus software.
When it comes to choosing the first three main programs, it’s usually easy as we just use with what we are already comfortable with or used to. But when it comes to deciding which antivirus program to install in our computers, most of us don’t know what to really use.
