Samsung's DDR4 RAM has 140% efficiency of DDR3

Samsung has developed some new DDR4 memory, using significantly less power - a slated 40% less - during read and write operations than our current DDR3 stuff.

Windows Phone 7 launch

There are three device manufacturers supporting Microsoft with it's new mobile OS - Windows Phone 7 - at launch, HTC, Samsung, and LG.


HTC is bringing the HD7 to the party, an HD2 style device, but running WP7. They've also cooked up the 7 Mozart, and 7 Trophy (Think original Desire).


Samsung brings us the Omnia 7, while LG brings the Optimus 7 to the table.


Using "7" to distinguish WP7 devices is certainly a recurring theme... I struggle, however, to see it continuing, or if it does to be a success and confusion free.


All the aforementioned launch devices are capacitive touch screen, slate, slab, call them what you will devices - with no variation on form factor just yet, other than the US' HTC Surround, which has a slide-out speaker, no keyboard, just a slide-out speaker... I can't see that form factor sticking.


If WP7 is what you've been waiting for, head on past the break for some pics of these badboy devices.
