The HTC Legend hides a pretty pokey 600MHz computer processor under the hood
The new HTC Legend is probably the best built mobile phone on the market; the full alloy uni-body design compliments the beautiful 3.2inch AMOLED touch screen perfectly, and the slight curve of the chassis adds comfort to the reliable, robust feel of the device. The Legend is loaded with smartphone features which cover everything from social networking to gaming, the Android 2.1 platform supports the Legend with a series of Google applications and the HTC Sense user interface saturates the screen with colour, sophistication and professional functionality.
HTC have designed the Legend to be super slim and sturdy while trying to keep it as lightweight as possible, it boasts super model dimensions at 112 x 56.3 x 11.5mm and 126grams is very light considering it is made entirely from metal. The QVGA display utilises capacitive technology which enables multi touch control, so you will find yourself swiping and tapping through screens at quite a speed. The Legend hides a pretty pokey 600MHz computer processor under the hood; it offers a real turbo boost to the phones online capabilities and cuts video loading times to the bare minimum.
HTC's Sense overlay has a host of cool features; one of these glorious goodies is the People widget; it enables you to create groups of friends by association from your contacts so they can be accessed easier and quicker. FriendStream is a new feature and allows you to manage your Flickr, Facebook and Twitter accounts from one application; it also steams all of your friends status updates and tweets into one full overview. The handiest of all the features though is HTC Leap; by simply pinching one of the seven available home screens you get an overview of them all.
The WebKit web browser is much the same as it is found on other good Android devices, the only real difference is that web pages are displayed whole so there is no need to zoom out, the zooming controls are easy and the capacitive touch screen technology proves its worth here. The Legend supports both 3G network coverage and Wi Fi technology, the 3G connection is very reliable and benefits the SNS features of the phone, while the Wi Fi connection supplies fast download speeds and a dependable connection providing you are near a local WLAN hotspot.
HTC have enabled you to communicate via a number of messaging resources; SMS, MMS, Exchange mail, e-mail and of course your social networks. Setting up your e-mail accounts is really easy, you simply enter an e-mail address and password and your account can then be managed direct from your Legend. Account providers like Hotmail and Gmail are available and Exchange ActiveSynch has been installed so you can manage your calendar and business accounts and maintain an organised business schedule.
The Legend houses a pretty sweet 5 mega pixel camera; it has as a LED flash and sports a nice auto focus feature. There are tons of editing tools to play with and perfect the picture your taking. The video recorder rocks too, it shoots high quality VGA recordings at 30 frames per second. Your music is handled by the in-house player and the phones memory can be upgraded via the microSD slot with a maximum of 32GB accepted.
The HTC Legend is definitely worth a look; it boasts some top class build quality and intuitive design, it is packed full of technology and the HTC Sense overlay delivers a superb user friendly experience. The phones cost reflects its performance but what a performance you get; the web browser is brilliant and the messaging and SNS support rivals any phone it the Legends class.

CMOS Processors and Memories $129 "CMOS Processors and Memories" addresses the-state-of-the-art in integrated circuit design in the context of emerging computing systems. New design opportunities in memories and processor are discussed. Emerging materials that can take system performance beyond standard CMOS, like carbon nanotubes, graphene, ferroelectrics and tunnel junctions are explored. "CMOS Processors and Memories" is divided into two parts: processors and memories. In the first part we start with high performance, low power processor design, followed by a chapter on multi-core processing. They both represent state-of-the-art concepts in current computing industry. The third chapter deals with asynchronous design that still carries lots of promise for future computing needs. At the end we present a 'hardware design space exploration' methodology for implementing and analyzing the hardware for the Bayesian inference framework. This particular methodology involves: analyzing the computational cost and exploring candidate hardware components, proposing various custom architectures using both traditional CMOS and hybrid nanotechnology CMOL. The first part concludes with hybrid CMOS-Nano architectures.The second, memory part covers state-of-the-art SRAM, DRAM, and flash memories as well as emerging device concepts. Semiconductor memory is a good example of the full custom design that applies various analog and logic circuits to utilize the memory cell's device physics. Critical physical effects that include tunneling, hot electron injection, charge trapping (Flash memory) are discussed in detail. Emerging memories like FRAM, PRAM and ReRAM that depend on magnetization, electron spin alignment, ferroelectric effect, built-in potential well, quantum effects, and thermal melting are also described. "CMOS Processors and Memories" is a must for anyone serious about circuit design for future computing technologies. The book is written by top notch international experts in industry and academia.

Computer Architecture $89.95 The era of seemingly unlimited growth in processor performance is over: single chip architectures can no longer overcome the performance limitations imposed by the power they consume and the heat they generate. Today, Intel and other semiconductor firms are abandoning the single fast processor model in favor of multi-core microprocessors--chips that combine two or more processors in a single package. In the fourth edition of Computer Architecture , the authors focus on this historic shift, increasing their coverage of multiprocessors and exploring the most effective ways of achieving parallelism as the key to unlocking the power of multiple processor architectures. Additionally, the new edition has expanded and updated coverage of design topics beyond processor performance, including power, reliability, availability, and dependability.
