"The Emulex XE201 enables unique quad-port, multi-fabric configurations for enterprise data centers leveraging the Huawei Tecal E9000 converged infrastructure blade servers," said Shaun Walsh, senior vice president of marketing and corporate development, Emulex. "For the first time, customers have the ability to select a multitude of high performance combinations, on the same PCI Express (PCIe) card, delivering the flexibility needed for next generation, dynamic data center environments."
The Huawei MZ910 adapter delivers four ports of either 8GFC, 10GbE, Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) or iSCSI connectivity, enabling unique I/O density and high-availability configurations and provides the following key benefits:
-- Flexible, High Performance, SAN and LAN Connectivity: The Huawei MZ910
Adapter is a multi-fabric adapter with selectable 8GFC and 10GbE-based
capabilities, allowing one adapter to do the work of a discrete Fibre
Channel HBA or an Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC), with support
and offload for Fibre Channel and FCoE storage protocols, resulting in
fewer cables, fewer switches, better power efficiency, reduced cooling,
and easier local area network (LAN) and storage area network (SAN)
management.
-- PCIe 3.0 support and 6x more IOPS In 8GFC mode: The Huawei MZ910
Adapters support up to 1.2 million I/O operations per second (IOPS)( 1);
which is 6x more than other 8GFC adapters. These adapters also support
PCIe 3.0, which provides a faster I/O bus, more PCIe lanes and increased
I/O bandwidth, enabling these adapters to match the performance
capabilities of server platforms based on the new Intel® Xeon®
processor E5-2600 product family.
-- Increased Virtual Machine (VM) Densities: The Emulex XE201 leverages
Emulex vScale(TM) for superior scalability, supporting up to 255 virtual
functions (VFs), 1024 Message Signal Interrupts Extended (MSI-X), and
8192 concurrent logins and open exchanges, enabling support for more VMs
per server.
-- Efficient I/O Management: The Huawei MZ910 Adapter running in FC or
10GbE mode uses a single driver, and can be controlled, configured and
managed from a single console using Emulex OneCommand® Manager,
enabling enterprise scalability with time-saving features that provide
more than twice the management functionality and take half the time to
install and manage compared to other I/O solutions(2). Emulex
OneCommand® Manager plug-in for VMware vCenter(TM) Server allows users
to manage Emulex adapters across hundreds of servers, natively from the
VMware vCenter Server console.
"The Huawei E9000 is a new-generation blade server that integrates computing, storage, switching, and management subsystems to form a powerful converged infrastructure platform," said Yao Yimin, server system architect, Huawei. "Emulex industry-leading converged networking technology significantly improves the competitiveness of the E9000 with its flexible I/O capabilities, converged architecture, storage expansion compute node capabilities, low network latency, and acceleration functions."

"Safe Harbor" Statement
"Safe Harbor'' Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: With the exception of historical information, the statements set forth above, contain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or changes to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances. We wish to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include the possibility that we may not realize the anticipated benefits from the acquisition of Endace on a timely basis or at all, and may be unable to integrate the technology, operations and personnel of Endace into our existing operations in a timely and efficient manner. In addition, intellectual property claims, with or without merit, that could result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays, require us to indemnify customers, or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, which may or may not be available. Furthermore, we have in the past obtained, and may be required in the future to obtain, licenses of technology owned by other parties. We cannot be certain that the necessary licenses will be available or that they can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we were to fail to obtain such royalty or licensing agreements in a timely manner and on reasonable terms, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Ongoing lawsuits, such as the action brought by Broadcom Corporation (Broadcom), present inherent risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. Such potential risks include continuing expenses of litigation, loss of patent rights, monetary damages, injunctions against the sale of products incorporating the technology in question, counterclaims, attorneys' fees, incremental costs associated with product or component redesigns, liabilities to customers under reimbursement agreements or contractual indemnification provisions, and diversion of management's attention from other business matters. With respect to the continuing Broadcom litigation, such potential risks also include the adequacy of any sunset period to make design changes, the ability to implement any design changes, the availability of customer resources to complete any re-qualification or re-testing that may be needed, the ability to maintain favorable working relationships with Emulex suppliers of serializer/deserializer (SerDes) modules, and the ability to obtain a settlement which does not put us at a competitive disadvantage. In addition, the fact that the economy generally, and the technology and storage market segments specifically, have been in a state of uncertainty makes it difficult to determine if past experience is a good guide to the future and makes it impossible to determine if markets will grow or shrink in the short term. Continued weakness in domestic and worldwide macro-economic conditions, related disruptions in world credit and equity markets, and the resulting economic uncertainty for our customers, as well as the storage and converged networking market as a whole, has and could continue to adversely affect our revenues and results of operations. As a result of these uncertainties, we are unable to predict our future results with any accuracy. Other factors affecting these forward-looking statements include but are not limited to the following: faster than anticipated declines in the storage networking market, slower than expected growth of the converged networking market or the failure of our Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to successfully incorporate our products into their systems; our dependence on a limited number of customers and the effects of the loss of, decrease in or delays of orders by any such customers, or the failure of such customers to make timely payments; the emergence of new or stronger competitors as a result of consolidation movements in the market; the timing and market acceptance of our products or our OEM customers' new or enhanced products; costs associated with entry into new areas of the network, server and storage technology markets; the variability in the level of our backlog and the variable and seasonal procurement patterns of our customers; any inadequacy of our intellectual property protection and the costs of actual or potential third-party claims of infringement and any related indemnity obligations or adverse judgments; the effect of any actual or potential unsolicited offers to acquire us; proxy contests or the activities of activist investors; impairment charges, including but not limited to goodwill and intangible assets; changes in tax rates or legislation; the effects of acquisitions; the effects of terrorist activities, natural disasters, and any resulting disruption in our supply chain or customer purchasing patterns or any other resulting economic or political instability; the highly competitive nature of the markets for our products as well as pricing pressures that may result from such competitive conditions; the effects of changes in our business model to separately charge for software; the effect of rapid migration of customers towards newer, lower cost product platforms; transitions from board or box level to application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) solutions for selected applications; a shift in unit product mix from higher-end to lower-end or mezzanine card products; a faster than anticipated decrease in the average unit selling prices or an increase in the manufactured cost of our products; delays in product development; our reliance on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for components and assembly; our ability to attract and retain key technical personnel; our ability to benefit from our research and development activities; our dependence on international sales and internationally produced products; changes in accounting standards; and any resulting regulatory changes on our business. These and other factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements and are discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our recent filings on Forms 10-K and 10-Q, under the caption "Risk Factors."

High-Quality Photos and Videos Get Mobile and Social with Eye-Fi's New Mobi Card
Instant, Wireless Transfer from Digital Camera to Smartphones and Tablets
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., June 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Eye-Fi (http://www.eye.fi), the global leader in wireless memory cards, today launches Eye-Fi Mobi - the first card designed for the modern photo enthusiast to deliver high-quality digital photography combined with the convenience and connectivity of mobile devices. Mobi users can now share smarter, easier and faster, as their best photos and videos, from their favorite digital cameras, are instantly available on their smartphones or tablets.
"People like smartphones for taking pictures, mostly because of accessibility and instant sharing. Unfortunately, smartphones fall short for life's many moments that require zooming, high-speed shooting, low light and other features that make digital cameras superior," said Matt DiMaria, CEO of Eye-Fi. "Mobi is our simplest card yet, designed to provide photo lovers a no-compromises solution: the great quality pictures and videos of a digital camera and instant access on the smartphone to enjoy and share."
Mobi removes the hassle of transferring images so today's photographer can freely focus on taking beautiful, memorable photos. No more juggling devices, using a camera to capture quality images and then separately, taking similar, but inferior shots from a smartphone just to share. Simply replace any camera's standard SD card with Mobi, and just two quick steps later, the camera's photos instantly appear on the selected iOS or Android(TM) smartphone or tablet.
"Our research shows that the capabilities of Eye-Fi's Mobi cards are bridging a market gap: a majority of digital camera users are expressing interest in wireless transfer to mobile devices," commented Alan Bullock, associate director of InfoTrends. "Even more compelling is the data that many consumers say they would likely use their digital camera more if it had such a feature."
Editing and sharing photos are just as easy, because the higher quality images become part of the camera roll on the phone - ready for any favorite apps like Facebook, Instagram, Snapseed, Pixlr, and even a quick text or email. Any sharing, editing or display options people love about their phones and tablets are now easily used and enjoyed with their best photos and videos.
"Until now, sharing high-quality camera pictures while traveling meant waiting until the end of the day, or worse, waiting until the end of the trip to get images off my camera," says Francesco Rovetta, an avid Eye-Fi user and founder of Summit Stories, a philanthropic mountaineering project that helps disadvantaged children. "But with the Mobi card, I can take great pictures from places as remote as Mount Kilimanjaro, while still getting the real-time editing, sharing and backup of my phone. This new card connects my phone and camera so I can share my passion for photography in a way that's convenient and fun again."
Most notably, the new Eye-Fi Mobi lets photographers:
-- Set up simply and instantly: The Mobi has the simplest Eye-Fi card setup
yet - no computer, no account and no cloud. Just download the free
Eye-Fi app for iOS or Android, enter the Mobi card's unique 10-digit
code, and the mobile device is paired. Use the same code to pair as many
mobile devices as needed.
-- Share in real-time: High-resolution photos and videos instantly transfer
from camera to a device's photo roll/gallery. From there, edit and share
with any favorite apps.
-- Transfer anywhere: Built-in WiFi means no WiFi network, hotspot or
internet connection needed for pairing or transfer; Mobi literally
captures photos and then copies them from camera to device anywhere,
whenever new content is detected.
-- Works with the devices users already own (and love): As with other
Eye-Fi cards, Mobi works with thousands of cameras, including hundreds
of Eye-Fi Connected cameras that have integrated Eye-Fi technology for
improved usability. And, the Eye-Fi app can be downloaded for iOS and
Android smartphones and tablets, including the Kindle Fire.
-- Back up automatically: Photos and videos transfer as they're taken, so
if anything happens to the camera, content is already safe on the mobile
device.
-- Exceptional quality and speed: Mobi reinforces Eye-Fi's commitment to
provide state-of-the-art performance in SD memory. HD video, low light
and fast action shots are easily captured with this Class 10,
high-capacity card.
Eye-Fi will continue to provide wireless solutions for professional and amateur photographers with the Eye-Fi Pro X2 16GB card, which has feature-rich capabilities like RAW upload support, wireless transfer to PC/Mac and optional integrated backup in the cloud.
The Mobi card will retail for $49.99 for the 8GB card and $79.99 for the 16GB card and is available now on through http://www.eye.fi, Amazon and in Best Buy stores nationwide. For more information about the Mobi card or Eye-Fi products and services, please visit http://www.eye.fi.

WD® Delivers World's Thinnest 1 TB Hard Drive
New, 7 mm Slim 2.5-inch Hard Drive Delivers Industry's Highest Capacity Storage Giving Customers a High Capacity Option for Thin and Light Mobile Devices
IRVINE, Calif. and TAIPEI, Taiwan, June 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- WD(®), a Western Digital (NASDAQ: WDC) company, today announced COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2013 (booth L0810) it is shipping the world's thinnest 1 TB hard drive with its new 2.5-inch WD Blue(TM) 7 mm hard drive. Offering OEMs, channel integrators and consumers a unique storage solution for thin and light systems, slimmer notebooks, as well as compatibility with the industry-standard 9.5 mm drive slots of mainstream notebooks, the WD Blue hard drive family, in capacities from 320 GB to 1 TB in the 7 mm height, now provides a singular option of thin design and high capacity storage.
"Users with large portfolios of content no longer need an Ultrabook or upgrading to a thin and light notebook," said Matt Rutledge, Vice President and General Manager for client storage products at WD. "This most compact 1TB hard drive to-date offers manufacturers of systems an upsell path for their customers who will now be able to choose systems offering both sleek design and high capacity.
"Intel is introducing its fourth-generation Intel Core processor family (codenamed Haswell) to deliver faster and more efficient performance to both desktop and notebook platforms, with significant gains benefitting portable systems" said Roger Bradford, Capabilities Marketing Manager at Intel. "The release of the WD Blue 7 mm hard drives offers a new level of storage capacity that further enriches the computing experience for users of Ultrabooks, All-in-Ones and other thin and light PCs."
"With the release of WD's 1 TB capacity in a 7 mm drive height, Acer customers now have the best of both options and no longer have to choose between the lightness of thin, sleekly designed systems or those with high capacity storage," said Tiffany Huang, BG President, PC Global Operations at Acer Incorporated.
"As ASUS develops new super-slim solutions, reliable storage options such as the WD Blue 7 mm 1 TB hard drive provide us with an ideal capacity to offer our customers," said S.Y. Shian, Corporate Vice President and General Manager of NB Business Unit at Asus. "WD has eliminated the capacity limits heretofore endured by thin and light personal computers while keeping the reliability and data-protection of a traditional hard drive."
Features of the WD Blue 7 mm hard drives include:
-- Shock Tolerance - WD's ShockGuard(TM) technology protects the drive
mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks.
-- Cool and quiet - WD's exclusive WhisperDrive(TM) technology enables
quiet performance.
-- StableTrac(TM) - The motor shaft is secured at both ends to compensate
for system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate
tracking during read and write operations which enables consistently
higher performance.
-- Dual Stage Actuators - Leveraged from enterprise-class drives, dual
stage actuators utilize two actuators to improve positional accuracy
over the data track(s). The primary actuator provides coarse
displacement using conventional electromagnetic actuator principles. The
secondary actuator uses piezoelectric motion to fine tune the head
positioning to a higher degree of accuracy.
-- Reliable - WD's SecurePark(TM) parks the recording heads off the disk
surface during spin up, spin down, and when the drive is off. This
ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in
improved long term reliability due to less head wear, and improved
non-operational shock tolerance.
-- Compatibility Tested - WD performs tests on hundreds of systems and a
multitude of platforms in its FIT Lab(TM) and Mobile Compatibility Lab
to give customers confidence that drives will work in specific systems.
Price and Availability
Shipping now through select distributors and resellers, the new 1 TB WD Blue 7 mm 2.5-inch mobile hard drive is covered by a two-year limited warranty. MSRP for the 1 TB, model#: (WD10SPCXX) is $139.00 USD.

New, 7 mm Slim 2.5-inch Hard Drive Delivers Industry's Highest Capacity Storage Giving Customers a High Capacity Option for Thin and Light Mobile Devices
IRVINE, Calif. and TAIPEI, Taiwan, June 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- WD(®), a Western Digital (NASDAQ: WDC) company, today announced COMPUTEX TAIPEI 2013 (booth L0810) it is shipping the world's thinnest 1 TB hard drive with its new 2.5-inch WD Blue(TM) 7 mm hard drive. Offering OEMs, channel integrators and consumers a unique storage solution for thin and light systems, slimmer notebooks, as well as compatibility with the industry-standard 9.5 mm drive slots of mainstream notebooks, the WD Blue hard drive family, in capacities from 320 GB to 1 TB in the 7 mm height, now provides a singular option of thin design and high capacity storage.
"Users with large portfolios of content no longer need an Ultrabook or upgrading to a thin and light notebook," said Matt Rutledge, Vice President and General Manager for client storage products at WD. "This most compact 1TB hard drive to-date offers manufacturers of systems an upsell path for their customers who will now be able to choose systems offering both sleek design and high capacity.
"Intel is introducing its fourth-generation Intel Core processor family (codenamed Haswell) to deliver faster and more efficient performance to both desktop and notebook platforms, with significant gains benefitting portable systems" said Roger Bradford, Capabilities Marketing Manager at Intel. "The release of the WD Blue 7 mm hard drives offers a new level of storage capacity that further enriches the computing experience for users of Ultrabooks, All-in-Ones and other thin and light PCs."
"With the release of WD's 1 TB capacity in a 7 mm drive height, Acer customers now have the best of both options and no longer have to choose between the lightness of thin, sleekly designed systems or those with high capacity storage," said Tiffany Huang, BG President, PC Global Operations at Acer Incorporated.
"As ASUS develops new super-slim solutions, reliable storage options such as the WD Blue 7 mm 1 TB hard drive provide us with an ideal capacity to offer our customers," said S.Y. Shian, Corporate Vice President and General Manager of NB Business Unit at Asus. "WD has eliminated the capacity limits heretofore endured by thin and light personal computers while keeping the reliability and data-protection of a traditional hard drive."
Features of the WD Blue 7 mm hard drives include:
-- Shock Tolerance - WD's ShockGuard(TM) technology protects the drive
mechanics and platter surfaces from shocks.
-- Cool and quiet - WD's exclusive WhisperDrive(TM) technology enables
quiet performance.
-- StableTrac(TM) - The motor shaft is secured at both ends to compensate
for system-induced vibration and stabilize platters for accurate
tracking during read and write operations which enables consistently
higher performance.
-- Dual Stage Actuators - Leveraged from enterprise-class drives, dual
stage actuators utilize two actuators to improve positional accuracy
over the data track(s). The primary actuator provides coarse
displacement using conventional electromagnetic actuator principles. The
secondary actuator uses piezoelectric motion to fine tune the head
positioning to a higher degree of accuracy.
-- Reliable - WD's SecurePark(TM) parks the recording heads off the disk
surface during spin up, spin down, and when the drive is off. This
ensures the recording head never touches the disk surface resulting in
improved long term reliability due to less head wear, and improved
non-operational shock tolerance.
-- Compatibility Tested - WD performs tests on hundreds of systems and a
multitude of platforms in its FIT Lab(TM) and Mobile Compatibility Lab
to give customers confidence that drives will work in specific systems.
Price and Availability
Shipping now through select distributors and resellers, the new 1 TB WD Blue 7 mm 2.5-inch mobile hard drive is covered by a two-year limited warranty. MSRP for the 1 TB, model#: (WD10SPCXX) is $139.00 USD. Additional information about WD Blue mobile hard drives and limited warranty terms may be found on the company website at http://www.wd.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=800.

Guess & Know Update Improves Gameplay and Networking
OLYMPIA, Wash., June 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- OlyInnovations(TM) announces the release of version 1.2 of both "Guess & Know" - its category trivia game engine for iPad® - and "Guess & Know Companion" - the electronic buzzer counterpart for iPad, iPod touch® and iPhone®. These releases incorporate requests from corporate meeting planners for enhanced networking options and from students for some fun game play additions.
"I was visiting a school where fourth graders were using 'Guess & Know' as an interactive way to share what they had been working on," said Jim Tobin, founder of OlyInnovations. "When asked what they liked about the app one boy said he liked everything but wished it had sad faces and sounds when a question is answered incorrectly. So we had a little fun and built a facial expression generator to take the sting out of getting a question wrong."
"We heard from corporate meeting planners that they wanted more options for Companion users to find the game host, especially in hotels that have unpredictable WiFi," said Tobin. "Game discovery over Bluetooth allows everyone in the room to find the game host, even though game play is over WiFi."
"Guess & Know" is a category trivia game engine for iPad that lets users create their own game around the content they want to review. Games can have up to three rounds, each having up to six categories of up to five questions. Questions can include pictures, and be given bonus designation so the player overrides the point value. The app was designed from the ground up to work best with, but not require, connection to a television set or projector for group play, either wired directly or via Apple TV®.
"Guess & Know Companion" is the electronic buzz-in app for iPad, iPod touch and iPhone that makes facilitating the game easier and makes game play more fun, with constant score updates, instant indication of winning the buzz-in and other features.
Both apps are available on the App Store? at appstore.com/olyinnovations.

wide variety of needs related to designing, building, operating and improving broadband
networks and their services
Teleste, a leading provider of video and broadband technologies and related services,
today announces several new products to complement its extensive product and solution
portfolio. Teleste invites you to visit us at stand E19 and explore the possibilities that
the Teleste Toolkit might offer to network operators.
A well-managed and operating network will deliver better uptime and increase
cost-effectiveness by cutting down on maintenance costs and unnecessary investments in
overlapping features and equipment. It will also offer successful user experience for
network subscribers, creating strong customer relationships that are grounds for new
business opportunities for operators.

providers a flexible andlow-cost access to high transmission capacity and will support
the forthcoming DOCSIS 3.1 standard. The ACE8 features unique wireless, touch-free
control via Bluetooth(R).
- DOCSIS Access Hub (DAH) for distributed CMTS architecture. Based on Data over
Coax technologies, the DAH enables operators to utilize existing coaxial cabling
inside apartment buildings to bring fibre-level connections to their customers,
offering them a cost-effective and economically viable choice to upgrade their network
capacity to guarantee sufficient speeds for all video streaming.
At the ANGA COM 2013 Congress, Teleste's SVP, Hanno Narjus, will speak about Data over
Coax as the best last mile access technology before FttH. The presentation will be part of

INOVA's Clarity Broadband Solution(TM) Provides E&P Operators with a Comprehensive Broadband Acquisition Toolkit

Posted on June 2, 2013 at 11:07:01 PM
INOVA's Clarity Broadband Solution(TM) Provides E&P Operators with a Comprehensive Broadband Acquisition Toolkit
HOUSTON, June 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- INOVA Geophysical will introduce their new Clarity Broadband Solution(TM) at the European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers (EAGE) conference in London, June 10-13. The solution includes a full portfolio of broadband technologies capable of generating and recording the wide bandwidth data oil and gas companies are now demanding.
INOVA's Clarity Broadband Solution clearly addresses an industry need for geophysical contractors to deliver higher data quality to their oil and gas customers so they can maximize their large investments with a deeper understanding of complex formations and richer characterization of the earth's subsurface. While technologies that produce a full-spectrum of broadband capabilities are required to support these efforts, delivering broadband data from a seismic survey requires that all technology components, such as the source, recording system and sensors, work together with the same end goal.
INOVA offers operators a 'one-stop shop' for flexible, reliable and rugged broadband technologies including:
-- Vibrator and Controller Technologies
-- Flexible Cabled and Cableless Recording Technologies
-- Digital Sensor Technologies
"While low frequencies are key for imaging deeper structures and improving the inversion process, high frequencies are also beneficial for enhancing vertical resolution", said Andy Bull, INOVA's Vice President of Emerging Technologies. "Broadband data substantially improves processing and interpretation techniques to ultimately deliver the highest quality results needed by oil companies. We are happy to be able to offer our customers a complete Broadband solution. Our proven source generation products, digital sensors and recording systems have successfully helped operators worldwide get the best results possible from their acquisition programs."
Zhouhong "John" Wei, INOVA's Principal Scientist and Broadband expert, along with Andy Bull will host an archived joint webinar with Hart's E&P on June 5(th) to discuss What Broadband Land Seismic Technology Means to Your Project's Success. They will also be presenting on this topic in INOVA's booth, number 920 at the EAGE conference.
About INOVA Geophysical Equipment Limited
INOVA Geophysical Equipment Limited is a leading provider of land geophysical technology, including source and source control systems, cabled and cableless land acquisition systems, and advanced seismic digital sensors. Managed as an independent company, INOVA is a joint venture owned 51% by BGP (a wholly-owned subsidiary of China National Petroleum Corporation) and 49% by ION Geophysical Corporation (NYSE: IO).

VEENTOOK OSINO Series Lens Brings Flexibility to Mobile Cameras

VEENTOOK OSINO Series Lens Brings Flexibility to Mobile Cameras
SHENZHEN, China, May 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Photographers who sometimes wish their cell phone cameras were a bit more flexible may find a solution in the VEENTOOK OSINO series lens. Detachable macro, wide-angle, and fisheye lenses usually are mounted directly on a DSLR, but not everyone has a pro-level kit isn't always an option. But the age of lugging around a pricey DSLR kit just to capture casual fisheye, wide-angle and macro photos may be nearing its end -- for some, at least.
The VEENTOOK OSINO series lens, designed in China, was not only successfully funded but also has become very popular in many countries. Applehour.com, a site dedicated to Apple accessories, is the exclusive agency for the VEENTOOK OSINO lens, which is now available at http://www.Applehour.com
The VEENTOOK OSINO series lens brings the functionality of all lenses to mobile phones, and it does so well that it is enough to warrant leaving your pro kit at home on occasion -- assuming, of course, that your photographs aren't responsible for putting food on the table.
While a bargain compared to its professional equivalents, $3-$20 is a cheap price for any iPhone accessory, so the VEENTOOK OSINO series lens' price tag sits well with almost all users. As there are no designs limitations, the lens can be used with most devices, and compatibility with future mobile phones from such as iPhone, Samsung, Blackberry, Nokia, HTC, and any other devices are guaranteed as well.
The VEENTOOK OSINO series adds some flexibility to one's mobile phone camera, complimenting the built-in lens with an optic device that clips onto the phone and can be stored in your bag or pocket when not in use. The series includes four kinds of lenses: fish eye lens, macro lens, wide angle lens, and telephoto. Users are able to use different lenses to achieve their desired effect.
The VEENTOOK OSINO lens will always be near and dear to our hearts. You can get all of them at applehour.com.

Samplify's APAX Technology Cuts Memory Power Consumption by 59% During Video Playback on Mobile Devices
APAX Extends Mobile Device Battery Life by 15% to 25% for All Multimedia Data Types
CAMPBELL, Calif., May 31, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Samplify, the leading intellectual property company for accelerating memory, storage, and I/O bottlenecks in mobile devices, consumer electronics, and computing, announces that it has completed testing of its APAX technology with an H.264 decoder to reduce the power consumption of the memory subsystem of mobile devices during video playback. Testing results prove a 59% reduction in power consumption for memory during video playback on mobile devices and an extension of mobile battery life by 15% to 25% for all multimedia data types. The company will showcase these dramatic results next week at the Design Automation Conference (DAC) in Austin, Texas, June 2-6.
This milestone marks the completion of all multimedia use cases within mobile processors including:
-- Image sensor acquisition in Bayer Matrix format
-- Image processing and color space conversion (RGB 4:4:4, YUV 4:4:4)
-- Motion estimation (ME) during video encoding (YUV 4:2:2/4:2:0)
-- Motion compensation (MC) during video decoding (YUV 4:2:2/4:2:0)
-- On-screen display and 3D graphics (RGB 4:4:4, RGBA 4:4:4:4, triangle
vertices, meshes)
-- Transparent software processing of APAX-encoded image data, flexibly
accessed either as macroblocks or as rasters.
"Reducing memory bandwidth on mobile devices during H.264 decoding is the key to reducing power consumption and extending battery life during video playback," says Al Wegener, CTO and Founder of Samplify. "We have proven not only that APAX encoding and decoding can be applied to reference frames as they are written to, and read from, external DDR memory, but that we can control the drift between the encoder and decoder with negligible impact to image quality."
Samplify at DAC
Samplify will be exhibiting at the ARM Connected Community® Pavilion in Booth 921, Pod 1B, at DAC. The company will also detail its testing results in the ARM Connected Community® Theatre on Tuesday, June 4, at 2:15 PM in a presentation entitled, "Reducing Memory Bandwidth and Power in Mobile Devices through Numerical Encoding for Multimedia."
About APAX
Samplify APAX technology is a universal numerical encoder that operates on any multimedia or numerical datatype. APAX achieves typical encoding rates of 3:1 to 8:1 without affecting the quality of results. The APAX Verilog IP core for SoCs and ASICs synthesizes to 0.08 mm² in TSMC 28nm HPM, while consuming one-tenth the power of a LP-DDR3 interface.
About Samplify:
Samplify is a Silicon Valley startup providing the only software and hardware numerical and multimedia encoder that reduces memory, I/O, and storage bottlenecks in mobile, consumer electronic, and computing devices. Samplify is a privately-held company based in Silicon Valley, with funding from Charles River Ventures and Formative Ventures and strategic investors Schlumberger, Mamiya, and IDT.

The company will showcase these dramatic results next week at the Design Automation Conference (DAC) in Austin, Texas, June 2-6.
This milestone marks the completion of all multimedia use cases within mobile processors including:
-- Image sensor acquisition in Bayer Matrix format
-- Image processing and color space conversion (RGB 4:4:4, YUV 4:4:4)
-- Motion estimation (ME) during video encoding (YUV 4:2:2/4:2:0)
-- Motion compensation (MC) during video decoding (YUV 4:2:2/4:2:0)
-- On-screen display and 3D graphics (RGB 4:4:4, RGBA 4:4:4:4, triangle
vertices, meshes)
-- Transparent software processing of APAX-encoded image data, flexibly
accessed either as macroblocks or as rasters.
"Reducing memory bandwidth on mobile devices during H.264 decoding is the key to reducing power consumption and extending battery life during video playback," says Al Wegener, CTO and Founder of Samplify. "We have proven not only that APAX encoding and decoding can be applied to reference frames as they are written to, and read from, external DDR memory, but that we can control the drift between the encoder and decoder with negligible impact to image quality."
Samplify at DAC
Samplify will be exhibiting at the ARM Connected Community® Pavilion in Booth 921, Pod 1B, at DAC. The company will also detail its testing results in the ARM Connected Community® Theatre on Tuesday, June 4, at 2:15 PM in a presentation entitled, "Reducing Memory Bandwidth and Power in Mobile Devices through Numerical Encoding for Multimedia."
About APAX
Samplify APAX technology is a universal numerical encoder that operates on any multimedia or numerical datatype. APAX achieves typical encoding rates of 3:1 to 8:1 without affecting the quality of results. The APAX Verilog IP core for SoCs and ASICs synthesizes to 0.08 mm² in TSMC 28nm HPM, while consuming one-tenth the power of a LP-DDR3 interface.
About Samplify:
Samplify is a Silicon Valley startup providing the only software and hardware numerical and multimedia encoder that reduces memory, I/O, and storage bottlenecks in mobile, consumer electronic, and computing devices. Samplify is a privately-held company based in Silicon Valley, with funding from Charles River Ventures and Formative Ventures and strategic investors Schlumberger, Mamiya, and IDT.

"Utilizing a future 4th gen Intel Core processor, the Razer Blade Pro delivers top-class gaming and professional performance in a very portable form factor."
"The Razer Blade Pro packs extreme performance in an ultra-portable form factor," says Rene Haas, vice president and general manager of notebook GPUs at NVIDIA. "Thanks in part to the performance-per-watt efficiency of the new NVIDIA GeForce GTX GPUs, the new Razer Blade Pro is incredibly thin for a 17-inch gaming laptop."
At the heart of the Blade Pro is a full-HD 17-inch LED display linked in combination with the Switchblade User Interface (SBUI), allowing users to take advantage of tools and creative possibilities at their fingertips. Driven by 10 dynamic adaptive tactile keys, a revolutionary LCD track pad and professional-grade and game apps, users can work harder and play harder. Razer's SBUI now includes several new, professional-grade apps and a wide array of new tools available at no charge, including programs like Adobe Photoshop® and Adobe Premiere® Pro, Maya®, GIMP and more.
The Razer Blade Pro also features 8 GB of fast 1600 MHz DDR3L memory and now comes standard with 128 GB of total solid-stage storage, with optional 256 GB and 512 GB SSDs. With solid-state storage technology, gamers will now experience up to four-times the performance of a traditional 5400-rpm notebook hard drive.

Dragon's Prophet Enters Open Beta In North America
Free-to-Play Fantasy MMO Challenges Gamers to Capture, Train, Ride, and Fight Hundreds of Dragons
SAN DIEGO, May 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The time to CAPTURE, TRAIN, RIDE and FIGHT hundreds of unique dragons has arrived! Sony Online Entertainment LLC (SOE) announced that Dragon's Prophet is scheduled to enter its Open Beta period in North America later today. Players journey through the beautiful, vast realm of Auratia to see if they have what it takes to become the next Dragon's Prophet in the free-to-play, massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG).
"Whether they are terrorizing towns, serving as mighty companions, or swooping in to save the day, dragons unfailingly fascinate us, and pop culture's interest in these mystical beasts has become insatiable," said Todd Carson, Senior Producer of Dragon's Prophet. "Dragon's Prophet answers this community call for more dragons and is an extraordinary addition to the MMO fantasy genre, granting players access to hundreds of different types of dragons and offering a captivating combat system with high levels of customization - for characters and dragons alike!"
In Dragon's Prophet players must choose from four distinct player classes - ranger, sorcerer, guardian or oracle - and band together to battle a variety of legendary creatures as they work to restore order to the land from the evil Black Dragon that has escaped his eternal prison, and is more dangerous than ever. Featuring an action-based combat system, Dragon's Prophet gives players visceral battle action gameplay, with a higher degree of control and wider range of tactical options than traditional MMOs.
Developed by Runewaker Entertainment, creators of Runes of Magic, Dragon's Prophet will begin Open Beta in North America later today and be available as a "Free-To-Play. Your Way.(TM)" title with optional content available for purchase to customize characters and weapons, and enhance gameplay experience on PC systems. Players will be able to continue with the character and in-game items earned through the commercial launch later this year.

ifocus Joins Forces with National PTA to Support Child Success

ifocus Joins Forces with National PTA to Support Child Success
ifocus, National PTA's newest Member Benefits Provider, is committed to helping all children reach their full potential
LOS ANGELES, May 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- With a commitment to developing programs and partnerships that benefit children and bring valuable resources to parents and members, Focus Education, makers of ifocus, announced today that the company is now an official National PTA Member Benefits Provider (MBP). ifocus is a unique attention-training system for children ages 6 to 12 that significantly improves attention, focus, and memory through a fun computer game called "Jungle Rangers."
This alliance supports the mission of both the National PTA and Focus Education to help every child reach their full potential--an undertaking that is becoming more and more challenging in a world that presents a myriad new distractions to kids every day. Computers, television, video games and other screen media were once considered to be some of these "distractions" that interfere with a student's attention in the classroom and at home. However, new research is determining that children who are born in a digital world are inherent digital learners.
"National PTA encourages the success of all children. We applaud the Focus team for their commitment to helping children improve their attention and are pleased that Focus has chosen to support the millions of PTA members with unique opportunities and benefits available exclusively through this relationship," said National PTA President, Betsy Landers.
"68% of children over two years old use some sort of screen-media for more than two hours a day, and 70% of four to six year olds in the US have used a computer; it's no secret that our kids are spending an increased amount of time with digital media," Michael Apstein, CEO and Co-Founder of Focus Education describes. "ifocus was developed with a proactive approach to these recent trends--if children are born with a desire to consume screen media, why not make it beneficial to their success?"
This philosophy of "guilt-free gaming" guided a leaders-in-their-field team to create not only a state-of-the-art computer game, but also a holistic support program incorporating behavior, food and fitness: the ifocus system. Twenty years of extensive cognitive-training research and the proven science of working memory provided a foundation for development and assessment of Jungle Rangers--the core of ifocus. Award-winning game designers transformed these typically boring attention-training "tasks" into exciting and challenging cognitive-training games. The result?--A comprehensive, laboratory-tested program proven to increase attention, focus and memory in elementary school age children.
Through the ifocus alliance with National PTA as a Member Benefits Provider, PTA members and schools will reap the benefits of an exclusive fundraising opportunity, "The Jungle Rangers Challenge," and special pricing on the ifocus system, with a significant percentage of each unit purchase donated to their participating local PTA. The alliance between ifocus and National PTA is kicking-off at the National PTA Convention June 20-23 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Attendees will have the chance to experience ifocus and play The Jungle Rangers Challenge hands-on at the ifocus exhibit.
"We created ifocus because it appealed to us as dads--a real way to help children succeed, by building a very basic skill--attention--which every child, every adult, everyone needs to perform at their best," Apstein continued. "To have the National PTA welcome ifocus into their small, select group of Member Benefits Providers is a great opportunity. We want parents, like us, to feel great about choosing ifocus when they know other parents and teachers have said it works!"
About Focus Education
Focus Education is a collaboration of scientists, researchers and doctors who share a common vision: to use the best science and technology to help children achieve their greatest potential. The company was founded by Michael Apstein and John Able, two business professionals and dads who are committed to bringing the most up-to-date tools and resources to other parents to help children succeed.

Cimatron Limited [http://www.cimatron.com ] (NASDAQ: CIMT) today announced that its
integrated CAD/CAM software, CimatronE, will be powering the Mitsubishi Machine Tools'
live milling demonstration at the Feimafe trade show in Sao Paulo, Brazil, June 3-8, 2013.
"Cimatron is investing more than ever before in the Brazilian manufacturing field,
assisting local mold and die makers in significantly boosting their productivity," said
Alexandre Censi, Cimatron's country manager for Brazil.
"The five local resellers of our integrated CAD/CAM solution, CimatronE, offer an
exceptionally high level of localized support to ensure that Brazilian mold and die shops
benefit from the full range of CimatronE's dedicated mold and die design and NC
programming capabilities. With offices across the main industrial regions, our resellers
provide tailored training and technical support in line with shops' specific needs."
The live milling demonstration at Feimafe powered by CimatronE will be held at the
booth of Mitsubishi Machine Tools (#J14). The parts to be milled with the DEV1000 and TV
500 machines include a blow mold for the base of a plastic soda bottle, employing a range
of capabilities that enable the creation of an accurate, smooth toolpath, mirror-finish
part quality, and the use of short tools for safe tooling with minimal vibration.
CimatronE functionality will also be showcased at Feimafe at the Cimatron booth
(#P71). Representatives from Brazilian resellers Autoflow, Cimacad, Delcon and Fitso will
be on hand to demonstrate the new and enhanced CAD and CAM modules in the latest version
of the software, CimatronE 11.
