The membership organization CompactFlash Association, which is in charge of handling the standardized field of the CompactFlash (CF) mass storage devices, has brought in public and update with the 5.0 specification for this type of products with a clear upgrading: A bigger memory capacity that in real time could reach up to 144 petabytes. Although it will be very complicated, we consider CF cards with this capacity, the brand-new range of 48-bit addresses will let surmounting the limitations of the last specifications.

Shigeto Kanda, Canon spokesperson and CompactFlash Association president of the board, pointed out that “the greater capacity and loftier performance of CF cards enabled by the 48-bit addressing feature in the CF5.0 specification will further raise the economic value of DSLR cameras. The Video Performance Guarantee feature of the CF5.0 specification will help CF cards to enlarge into new markets such as high-speed film equipment like professional video camcorders.”

As was pointed out in the official announcement, the new benefits of the 5.0 specification are especially supported by the new range of 48-bit addresses, which lets surmounting the last limitation that brought about a maximal memory capacity of 137 Gigabytes for a CompactFlash card. Once again, it will be very complicated the production of 144-petabyte cards in the short term, but of course, the brand-new feature adds a margin of development to the industry.

In addition to the theoretical increase of the capacity, extra improvements for the ATA standard have been added together, as well as a better execution control and the so-called “Video Performance Guarantee Profiles”, which is a field where CompactFlash cards had lost ground with a different formats such as SDHC that is recently more best-selling among the DSLR (Digital-SLR) and digital video camera makers. It is a great deal to buy this new CF.

Here comes the release of Apple’s brand-new tablet product, the iPad. Appearing similar to the iPod Touch / iPhones, it just differs in its size. Most apparently is its home button below, its touch screen display. This very significant button appears on the iPod Touch, iPhone 2G, 3G and 3GS and now the iPad.

Weight and size (in diameter) : 1.5 pounds and 0.5 inch thin.
Connectivity features : Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3G.
Battery Power : 10 Hours.

Sure, the new processor by Apple, the Apple A4, powers it.

Push aside all the other gadgets – phones, Smartphones, MP3 Players, PCs and digital cameras, here comes the modern age of Tablet PCs. No, they aren’t phones, but there aren’t any keyboards, touch screens instead. It is provided with processors as highly efficient as our normal PCs, yet even more movable than laptops or Netbooks.

Separate from its tech specs and sleek design, it has its effect on the economy too. For a single month’s income for Apple, $250 million was collected from sales, 70% of which is from the app developers – mostly private freelancers. Surprising? This shows a successful market and a new industry for freelance programmers to work on. Will it be like the revolutionary iPhone app store? Obviously.

Schedule M

Admin    News    

There are two tax credits available for 2009, which may decrease your tax liability or increase your tax refund. You must state both of these credits on a Schedule M. The credits are the Government Retiree Credit and the Make Work Pay Credit. The Make Work Pay credit will need to be reported on your 2009 income tax return, although it was given to most employees through a reduction of their withholding in 2009.

The Make Work Pay Credit amounts a maximum of $800 for married couples and $400 for those registering as single. The Make Work Pay Credit is 6.2% of made income up to the maximum. Any married couple whose joint income totaled $12, 903 or more during 2009 qualified for a withholding decrease of $800. Any single filer whose income totaled $6,451 or more during 2009 qualified for a withholding deduction of $400.

Freelance persons must calculate the credit using their net profit or loss from their business. Some taxpayers will need to make extra calculations if they have wages from work performed as a prison inmate, wages earned as foreign income or a net loss on their business. Instructions for such calculations are available from the IRS and on Schedule M, itself.

You did not qualify for the Make Work Pay Credit if you are a single filer whose modified adjusted gross income was $95,000 or more, joint filers whose modified adjusted gross income was $190,000 or more, anyone who may be claimed as a dependent on someone’s tax return, taxpayers without a valid Social Security number and non-resident aliens.

The Government Retiree Credit is organized to offer a tool of economic relief to those government retirees who did not qualify for the 2009 economic recovery payment. Retired claim, local, or federal employees who received pensions in 2009 based on work not covered by Social Security are qualified for the Government Retiree Credit. This is $250 for single filers and $500 for joint filers. You cannot state the Government Retiree Credit if you got an economic recovery payment.
