ffxos3.pngThe mobile operating system market is getting even more interesting as Mozilla (makers of Firefox) enter the space as announced back in July.

What is different about this operating system is that it is entirely browser based using Mozilla's "boot to Gecko" technology. Aimed at lower end lower cost smartphones the project is gaining international support and will offer an entirely HTML5 based mobile ecosystem giving HTML5 applications access to the hardware fuctionality of the device, currently only possible with native Apps. The Firefox O/S will alos be entirely open source and standards based.

Interesting.

Review: Netgear ReadyNAS NV+ V2

readynasv2.jpgThe Netgear ReadyNAS NV+ V2 is one of a family of NAS (Networked attached storage) products from Netgear. NAS units are designed to add disc storage to a network in place of, or in addition to, a traditional file server. Units of this type are however becoming more and more capable and rival the traditional file server in functionality.

Like most units of this type the Netgear ReadyNAS is Linux based. If you are not familiar with Linux that shouldn't be a concern as the operating system is hidden (too well hidden as it turns out) from the user behind a graphically intensive but quite pretty java based user interface.
