The dig of the Canal will start near the Dubai Marina area smooth inland around the massive area for planned Jebel Ali International Airport and wind its way to enter the sea once again at the outer end of Palm Jebel Ali. Dubai Waterfront forms the first phase of the larger Arabian Canal effort.The Arabian Canal will give rise to some truthfully astonishing developments even by Dubai property standards. The delta forms the base from which Dubai Waterfront will extend several kilometres out into the sea, far away from Palm Jebel Ali. The Palm Jebel Ali will form about a fifth of the enormous reclaimed component of the project. The Dubai Waterfront took two years to plan and is bigger than Manhattan and Beirut in size. The first phase of the project will concentrate on building Madinat Al Arab, a downtown type metropolis.

MacBook Air

This incredible slimness of MacBook Air is the result of numerous size- and weight-shaving innovations. From a slimmer hard drive to strategically hidden I/O ports to a lower-profile battery, everything has been considered and reconsidered with thinness in mind.

MacBook Air includes an oversize trackpad with multi-touch technology. You can pinch, swipe, or rotate to zoom in on text, advance through a photo album, or adjust an image. This gesture-based input so successful on iPhone and iPod touch now comes to MacBook.

The backlit LED display allows for an even thinner build. It provides instant full-screen brightness the moment you open MacBook Air. The mercury- and arsenic-free display is also more power efficient, which translates to longer battery life.

It performance is as impressive as its form, thanks to its 1.6GHz or 1.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. This chip was custom-built to fit within the compact dimensions of MacBook Air.

Unlike most other ultraportable notebooks, MacBook Air includes a built-in iSight camera. It’s so smartly integrated, you hardly notice it’s there. The iSight camera and iChat software make video chatting easy anywhere there’s a wireless network.2

The battery is slimmer but the performance isn’t, the MacBook Air battery is the thinnest ever, yet it doesn’t compromise power. You can access the web wirelessly for five full hours.

River trip....

Here’s a view that we don’t see every day. A view from the river, and in this case it’s the Douro River at north of Portugal. On board off a small boat I crossed under 5 of the 6 bridges, Arrábida bridge that was build in 1963 by Edgar Cardoso and was considered at the time the largest concrete span of any bridge in the world. D. Luiz I Bridge made by Teófilo Seyrig in 1886 with an arch bridge that spans Douro River between cities of OPorto and Vila Nova de Gaia. Then comes Infante D. Henrique Bridge build in 2003 by Adão da Fonseca. At the horizon I see D. Maria Pia Bridge raised 1877 under Gustavo Eiffel instructions, and then finishing the river trip under the S. João Bridge borne once again by the hands of Edgar Cardoso in 1991.

Ndrive, a Portuguese company, announced a new gps device. This device is quite different from the others gps’s, because it shows air images instead of represented map. At this moment this is only available for about 20 Portuguese cities.
The G800 came with a 6Gb data card, most of the card space is used by the image maps, It has also pictures of point of interests and monuments.
If you look the picture carefully, you can see that the brand name impressed is iJoy. This company already bought licences for commercialize the new NDrive GPS with it’s registered name.
In the future it’s possible the other brands will fallow the iJoy idea.
