DRAM Loses Out in Smartphone Market Growth
According to IHS, DRAM made up only 6.3 percent of the total BOM of a smartphone in Q1 2012, which is down 7.1 points from 13.4 percent during Q1 2011. Phone manufacturers spent an average of $11.81 for DRAM in the first quarter of this year, compared to $19.48 last year. IHS examined 19 different smartphone models for its report.
"Larger demands are being placed on the processing power of smartphones, in the process blurring the line between a phone and a computing device," said Dee Nguyen, memory analyst for IHS. "As this has happened, DRAM has become an increasingly crucial component of the handset supply chain. The growing importance of DRAM, however, appears not to be correspondingly reflected in the total BOM cost of a smartphone given the memory's declining share."
Interestingly, memory makers are supplying significantly more memory for fewer dollars. IHS said that the average memory amount was 256 MB in Q1 2010, while the average in Q1 2012 was 800 MB. Average selling prices for low-power DDR2 (LPDDR2) DRAM retreated by 48 percent from $2.59 to $1.34 during 2011.
"Because of the extensive application processing requirements of the modern smartphone, handset manufacturers can throttle DRAM loading by only so much before risking lower performance," Nguyen said. "As a result, handset manufacturers will have little choice but to continue moving up the DRAM technology and density curve, which could then enable the memory to take a greater share of total smartphone BOM costs."

2A Bad Day , June 12, 2012 7:16 PMojasSo now phones will come with 2GB min?
I doubt it. There will always be products that have cheaped-out components that barely meet minimal requirements.
0eddieroolz , June 12, 2012 8:32 PMConsidering the average phone has somewhere between 512 and 1GB of RAM, the 800MB average sounds right.
1jimmysmitty , June 13, 2012 3:31 AMA Bad DayI doubt it. There will always be products that have cheaped-out components that barely meet minimal requirements.
The US Galaxy SIII will have a dual core Snapdragon CPU and 2GB instead of the quad core and 1GB LPDDR2.
I would probably assume that by next year we will see more phones on the high end with 2GB and low end will push to around 1GB.
It took less than 2 years for PCs to come standard with 4GB of DDR3 since its price just dropped crazy fast.
0tomfreak , June 13, 2012 8:40 AMDo we actually need 2GB of RAM on phones NOW? lol
We barely able to fill the 4GB on desktoplet alone phones. I would much prefer them to hit lower minimum price for DRAM save some buck, and drop the phone price further.
0alxianthelast , June 13, 2012 11:04 AMTo a lesser extend, consoles are doing the same thing. Taking marketshare from PCs which without a clear justification for upgrades like VR games, aren't getting at least a standard of 16 gigs.
I thought by now we'd be up to 32-64 gigs system in something like gigabytes RAM drive, not just super expensive for not as much performance SSDs, and using PCIe 3.0, with 8gigs or more for a discrete GPU.

Only because moron Windows, Application developers and game developers STILL continue to piss on x64 programming for windows.
Some games do exceed 32bit memory address and crass because they are so poorly coded. Hopefully more developers like DICE come out an publicly commit to x64 by saying All or some of their dx11 titles will be x64 native.
Going along with your comment though.. it will be interesting to see if any 2D apps on a phone will push the need for phone any phone OS to jump to x64 and then have 4+ gigs of RAM. Will people still be wondering why they need a PC with x64 and 4 gigs if even the phone makers can push those boundaries?
0alxianthelast , June 13, 2012 11:11 AMhttp://www.technoend.com/arm-64-bit-processors-for-smartphones-servers/
Only a matter of time.. and apps that justify it.
0GreaseMonkey_62 , June 13, 2012 5:47 PMQuote:So now phones will come with 2GB min?
It would certainly be nice, if at least high end smartphones came with that much RAM. Once Windows RT hit's tablet't they'll need 2GB if not more to run decently.

0Jessica Thomas , June 19, 2013 5:10 AMI'm overwhelmed with your post.Declining in the cost of DRAM in Smartphone indicates that the manufactures are spending only little money on memory. But at the same time since DRAM has become an important element of handset, as stated here I too think that the manufactures have got no other choice other than moving up with the DRAM technology.Thanks.www.onetechcomputers.com

Fairdale Bikes has proposed a solution to those of us who like to cycle to the skate spot, but don't want to rock a board bag or carry your deck in-hand like a real man. "Simply mount this pannier on to most existing rear carrier racks and throw your board on for the ride. A cushioned rubber coating keeps your board from rattling around and holds your board securely. The rack positions the board behind the rear axle to keep your heels from hitting it, and keeps the center of gravity low." In stock now at Fairdale.

American Federation For Children Applauds Senator Rubio For Proposing Federal Tax Credit Scholarship Program
Florida Senator's bill will help thousands of low-income families access a quality education
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The American Federation for Children, the nation's voice for educational choice, today praised Florida Senator Marco Rubio for introducing federal legislation that will help thousands of children from low-income families access a quality education.
The bill, a federal tax credit scholarship program, is modeled after similar programs currently operating in 11 states and serving nearly 150,000 children. The bill is well designed, specifically written to help those most in need, and includes strong financial and academic accountability provisions. Families with household incomes equaling 250 percent of poverty ( $57,625 for a family of four) would be eligible; scholarships would be portable; participating Scholarship Granting Organizations would be subject to annual financial audits; and participating students would be annually assessed using a nationally recognized norm-referenced or state test used by the school, with results reported to the U.S. Department of Education.
Currently, the highly successful Washington, D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program (OSP) is the only federally funded scholarship program in the country. According to the last federal study of the OSP, children who used their scholarships had a 91 percent graduation rate - 21 percent higher than those who sought, but did not receive a scholarship, and more than 30 percent higher than D.C. public schools. Similar studies in Wisconsin and Florida have shown increases in student achievement and attainment. Students participating in the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program boast a graduation rate 7.2 points higher than students in Milwaukee Public Schools. Students participating in the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship, who tended to be the lowest-performing students at low-performing public schools, achieved gains in reading and math on par with all students nationally, not just students from low-income families.Senator Rubio has been a longtime advocate and champion for expanded parental options, dating to his time in the Florida legislature where he was a leader in advancing parental choice. The Florida Tax Credit Scholarship program, today, is model for the nation. The program serves nearly 51,000 children from low-income families and enjoys strong bipartisan support. According to a recent study released by the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, the Florida program is the most accountable tax credit scholarship program in the country. "We are grateful that Senator Rubio has introduced a bill to help children access a great education, regardless of their zip code," said former D.C. City Councilman and Federation Executive Counsel Kevin P. Chavous. "At a time when our nation continues to have a tragically high dropout rate and millions of kids remain trapped in traditional schools that do not work for them, we must have the courage to put all options on the table – options we know work for disadvantaged kids. Senator Rubio understands that every child matters and we applaud his leadership and commitment to helping these kids." There are currently 32 publicly-funded private school programs operating in 16 states, plus Washington, DC. More than 245,000 are enrolled for the 2012-2013 school year.

If you're looking to make it a fun birthday celebration, make sure that your party theme matches your party invitations. Themed party invitations are easier than ever to create online! Customize your invitation with party details and choose from an array of beautiful colors and unique graphics. Before you can begin customizing your party invitation online, you must have a theme already selected. Here is a list of the top 3 themes to match your party invitations.
1. Outdoors: If you're celebrating a party outdoors in your backyard or at the local park, make sure your party invitations contain images that reflect nature and the outdoors. From card designs that include clouds, birds, lady bugs, dogs and more, there are so many creative images to choose.
2. Cartoons: Cartoon party invitations are a wonderful choice if you plan to throw a princess theme for your daughter or a super hero theme for your son. Pick your child's favorite character and find out if there are any card designs from that cartoon. If you're out of luck, you can still decorate the party with other items that contain images of the cartoon character and just use matching colors on the party invitations.
3. Food and Desserts: Pick card designs with images of popcorn, pizza, candy, or ice cream if you're having some sort of a pizza party or ice cream party for your child. There's nothing else better than to pass out invites with the same type of food or dessert you plan to serve at the birthday celebration!
"The card stock was thick, cute size, and nice design. I love Tiny prints, they have great options for all budgets. Shipping was at great timing, faster than expected. The design theme for the party was inspired by card."
"These invitations surpassed my expectations. Customization was easy. I made them into picnic invitations. The ink is consistent and the design is printed well. The card stock is nice and heavy. I am placing another order today for a different party!"
"As always, prompt service, beautiful cards and a happy customer. This one is particular is super cute and am so happy with the quality. Thanks Tiny Prints!"
"Absolutely love this invitation. I purchased it for my sons school bday party. Love the quality and the card stock. Well done !!"
"I ordered this card for my daughter's 3rd birthday and they were absolutely gorgeous. I was very satisfied with the quality although it was not one of the most expensice cards. Delivery was on time and customer service was great. I didnt realize I had used two different fonts. I called and they were able to assist me without any problem. I totally recommend this product as well as Tinyprints."

Downey Profile Analysis: Sham Stakes an Odd Mix
By Dick Downey
What an odd grade III race the Sham is. There's a maiden coming in off a 13-day break, a horse that broke its maiden in its second and most recent start, a $7,000 horse with enough earnings already to assure it of a berth in the Kentucky Derby, a turf runner switching to the dirt, and an invader from New Mexico. Let's try to figure out what is and isn't a sham here. More...

His focus returned to the task at hand as the target satellite cleared the horizon and Satcom began receiving it's data. His hands quickly and deliberately danced over the keyboard, checking and verifying the Kepler data set. If all checked out the deorbit commands would be sent. He would then have another 12 hours to pick up souvenirs for the Mrs. Before catching his flight stateside. As he reached for his fresh cup of coffee, he notice a red light blinking. The perimeter sensors indicated intrusion. "Stupid Jaguars" he thought, "constantly going after the birds on the fence" A few keystrokes brought up the surveillance cameras looking for the elusive black cat of the rain forest. He stiffened...Contras! The unmistakable red arm band of a contra soldier setting a pair of bolt cutters down. More than a dozen came pouring through the new hole he had made.
The Dr panicked for only a moment then shifted into survival mode. "AIDE" he kept muttering to himself ... Alert Inform Destroy Evade he repeated.
He quickly typed his message
Alert!- Contras have penetrated Hill 4787 security
Inform- Satellite adjustments aborted! >15 Contras noted.
Unable to destroy all documents.
Beginning evasion procedures immediately.
The "send" Icon was linked to a secure channel on the Iridium constellation of satellites. The Dr grabbed his weapon, a small attache' case, and quietly left the control shed. He quickly made his way to the drainage ditch on the side opposite the Contra's new entrance. Once he penetrated the edge of the jungle he changed direction hoping to make as much distance as possible before the contras became aware of is presence.
The Contra General nodded in approval. The squad had penetrated the station and secured it without so much as one squeak from the perimeter warning system. Lazy Americans he half thought half muttered aloud. They install such advanced systems then ignore them. They don't even post a simple guard, now the station was free for the taking.
His investment in sending a member of Las Sambras to an American Tech school was paying off. The student graduated the electronics program with honors and returned as a tech officer. Such a simple investment and they were waging electronic warfare. Competing factions were conceding to their technological superiority and joining with the Contra movement. The corrupt government was faltering and on the verge of collapse. Now all they needed was a few pieces of communications and surveillance equipment to begin the next phase of their revolution.
"General!" a soldier called out "in here!" Something in the junior Contra's voice broke the General's normal swagger into a trot. The "hard life" had kept him in shape not to mention endeared him to his men. He was not some fat corrupt bureaucrat looking to create his own country, he was here for his men, for their families, for the movement. Upon entering the primary building. He immediately noted the coffee.
"Is the tech officer already setting up house?" He joked. The Sambra shook his head nervously, "No General it was here when we arrived..." The general's countenance darkened. He carefully visualized the cup as if it were a scorpion behind glass. "No lipstick," he mused. He then cradled the cup in his hands. "Its still warm in a building that's air conditioned for electronics". "Find him" he ordered "Get the tracking team on his trail. I want him alive" . Then he hissed at himself, "Who is calling who lazy".
The General collapsed in his bed. His body moaned almost audibly. As JSOC field commander he enjoyed being in the field with the troops but age was beginning to curse his body. This last field training exercise was 4 days. Of those 96 hours he got less than 3 hours of sleep at any one time and one shower. The crew, as he liked, to call them, would always say "If the old man can do it so can we" The General cut everyone slack for what they said provided it was respectful and didn't tear down morale. He had started his military career right out of high school. Once in the army he realized how much he liked his new "outdoor" job. After his first tour he went to college choosing a degree that would further his military career. Over the years he met and married. His wife was incredibly understanding. As she walked into their bed room she quipped "hey! get get your maneuvers off my sheets. I just washed them" "How do you know I wasn't at the club on the east side of town?" He retorted. "Men can only handle one wife and one mistress." she needled "I'm your wife and the military is your mistress." He responded with a wry smile " Wouldn't want to over extend myself".
As relaxing as the shower was, the pager cut it short. The numeric code indicated the secure line. "Dear! Fair warning!!" he shouted down the stairs. The last uniform was pulled from the closet as the rest were still in the wash cycle. Striding through the kitchen his wife pouted "I have my limits!" Wearily he shot back "So do I. If this is a joke I promise I'll pin the responsible party to the kitchen table and you can beat them with the skillet!" He quickly twirled the floor safe knob and opened the hatch. It looked like any other cell phone except three wrong unlock codes fired a small thermite charge. The subsequent fire would melt the unit into an irrecoverable mass of silicone and plastic. The speed dial memory was replaced by the latest encryption hardware. Once the authentication was complete, HQ confirmed the page. "It's not a joke nor is it a drill. It's real Dear." Nothing further needed to be said. The uniforms in the laundry gave him enough time to say hello and good by to his wife.
As he walked down the halls of the non-descript building that was JSOC, he was still cleaning his gear. "You're not ready General" a non-uniform pentagon official sneered. The General enthusiastically corrected,"Sure I'm ready. My men and I are always ready to do violence to any one, foreign or domestic, that would threaten life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. Which are you?" The official gave him a puzzled look. "Are you a foreign or domestic threat to my families pursuit of happiness?" A familiar voice snapped everyone to task, "Easy General. I'm sure he doesn't want his arm force fed to him and I'm certain I don't want to be a witness at a court martial." The Chief of Staff gestured toward the door. "No excuses. Sorry for the attitude Chief. I'll check it" the General stated. "Sorry for the quick turnaround" the Chief lamented.
The meeting got underway quickly. "There is a potential incident down south. 2 hours ago Contras left their Area of Operations and took over a hill with one of our listening posts. Marine Recon was initially dispatched but NSA requested full JSOC deployment. This now known as 'Operation Eminent Storm' Under "need to know" the NSA has divulged that a solo operative was performing special satellite maintenance at the time of the take over. We do not know the condition of the operative or the listening post designated Hill 4787. JSOC is to pacify the area and provide a complete damage assessment to the NSA. The NSA is only authorized to divulge that the scientist and any documents containing the words "Fire Fall" get top priority.. Gentleman your respective units have already been alerted. Your command staff has one hour to get airborne. We need to have boots on the ground in 8 hours. All available intelligence is being transferred to your mobile command units as we speak. Stay sharp!" Once the generals cleared the room, the Chief of Staff turned on the NSA liaison, he intentionally violated his personal space to show his displeasure"Why are we going in blind!? What is so important about Fire Fall that we commit a full command to this?" The liaison nervously took a step back.

Demanding action on gun control, activists and elected officials took to the Brooklyn Bridge Sunday to make their voices heard.
They called for an all-out ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, along with a national gun registry, which they say would help curb trafficking.
Protestors said gun control legislation needs to be passed both in Washington and in New York.
"We have to end this sick fascination with guns, and it must be done," said State Senator Eric Adams. "And we're talking about responsible gun ownership, not only for Washington D.C. but here in New York."
"Anyone who makes the argument that we're trampling on the Second Amendment, tell them they don't know what they're talking about," said Norman Siegel, a civil rights attorney.
The demonstrators also called for a focus on mental health care and emergency preparedness plans for public buildings, including schools.
Protestors at a counter-demonstration argued an armed guard would have prevented the school shooting in Connecticut.

Windows 8 Beats Ubuntu Linux For Intel "Haswell" OpenGL

Errazuriz Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc (half-bottle) 1999
Errazuriz Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc (half-bottle) 1999
search item no.
Winemaker's Notes:
The Late Harvest Sauvignon Blanc is extraordinarily fruity. The concentrated Sauvignon Blanc aromas and flavors combine ripe melon, peach and apricot jam with background herbal notes. A hint of lemon zest brightens the bouquet, and luxurious honey suckle contributes to the rich, complex perfume. Good acidity balances the velvety sweetness on the palate and provides a clean, bright finish. The fresh, lively fruit characteristics of this wine should develop into exquisite candied fruit flavors with several years in the bottle.
Alcohol: 11.1% by volume
My Notes:
Additional wines from Errazuriz:
2010 Max Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon

2011 Max Reserva Chardonnay

About Errazuriz:
Don Maximiano Errazuriz founded Viña Errazuriz in 1870 in the Aconcagua Valley, north of Santiago. This valley has cool, rainy winters, hot, dry summers and moist Pacific Ocean breezes--ideal for growing grapes. Don Maximiano sent for the finest clones from France and with tenacity and perseverance transformed this barren land into a world-class vineyard. Today, the tradition of quality lives on with Don Maximiano's descendant, Eduardo Chadwick--the fifth generation of his family to be involved in the wine business. Eduardo has overseen the modernization of the winemaking technology at this historic estate while maintaining a distinct identity for its wines, dedicated to producing estate grown wines of superior quality.

Sick! I see the new Roval Traverse SL Fatties going on there sooner or later. I know Enve is the cool wheel at the trailhead, but the Fatties are cheaper and lighter; those are the objective measurements. I don't know about strength yet, although some yahoo will soon chime in with subjective strength measurements based on two rides down his suburban street. If you're gonna claim strength, I'll need to see numbers. "It just felt stronger" does not cut it, Mr. Armchair Mechanical Engineer.

You do realize that Specialized makes bikes for regions other than the USA, right? And you do realize that Germans love neon and other ridiculously ugly colors, and the UK loves reserved, monochromatic colors, right? Spesh sells more bikes outside the USA than it does within, so do the math. As wethepeople says below, you should get into color forecasting; do you doubt for one second that Spesh doesn't get feedback from its market leaders as to what will and won't sell in their country? C'mon, dude...

Well, that's the sample size I need: one. The conundrum these "let's support the small guys" companies are in is that once their hand-made batch of 10 forks become popular, due to their quality and performance, they have to scale up and start sending stuff to Bangladesh and Nigeria to get manufactured.
Fox is a good example: Ever since they moved their manufacturing to Taiwan, their products and CS has gone to the dumps. They're barely riding their good name right now. Product managers prefer Rockshox, yet customers still expect Fox on the high end bikes.
Let's see what happens when DVO gets spec on the big bikes and have to produce more than 10 forks per year.

Thank god. They don't need to get into the me-too game. They're big enough that they can wait, research, develop, then surpass the competition. Their first 29ers sucked because they were hesitant about the market. Now their 29ers are the best. (Only one to win a WC.)

Yikes. Amazing what a signature does to something's perceived worth. If your unemployed neighbor's 12-year-old son came over with this thing, you'd throw him out and report him to the cops. Amazingly, they scribble the words "Troy Lee Designs" in there somewhere and it's suddenly "awesome?" If Jackson Pollock paintings were signed "Joe Blow," people would still be pissing on them.

Great to see "regular" guys riding trails in a professional-looking video. You could tell by the speed and technical abilities that these are "normal" dudes, not sponsored singletrack slayers skidding, flipping, and flying all over the place.
The "regular" guys are usually relegated to Motorola RAZR-level videos with iMovie titles and a Lenny Kravitz "Fly Away" soundtrack.

Strays is a joint webcomic project by Samantha Whitten and Stacey Pefferkorn, who both share responsibilities in writing and drawing the comic. Meela is a young, orphaned lupian (a race of people with wolf-like features) who is struggling to survive on her own. A chance encounter on less than pleasant terms teams her up with Feral, another lupian who happens to be a mute as well as one of the best mercenaries in the land, and who is not quite so welcoming of her forced company as she would like to believe.Starts here

The president made the admission during a news conference, during which he uttered perhaps the most tone-deaf and asinine remark of his presidency: "Nobody likes war. It creates a sense of uncertainty in the country."
Washington Post:
President Bush acknowledged yesterday that the war in Iraq is dominating nearly every aspect of his presidency, and he served notice for the first time that he expects the decision on when all U.S. troops come home to fall on his successors.
In an hour-long news conference, Bush said the "trauma" of war has left the public and even some lawmakers in his own party understandably shaken and skeptical of his vow that the United States will prevail.
"Nobody likes war," Bush said. "It creates a sense of uncertainty in the country."

Going on a spree of man dates.
Oops. Sorry. It turns out that "man date" is just a homophone for what I really mean: mandates. Even though I despise the concept of a "man date" – that two males are so inept at making friends that they must be forced to go out as though they were attempting to court each other, leading to the inevitable awkward conversation about nothing – | Read More »


text: It's been an up and down week. Over-all I've done well. I've cheated several tims, but have always figured in the calories. I've gone to the y twice. The car is in the shop so it's been harder this week. I blew it last night with a poptart, carmel corn and ritz/cheese spread. But today did well. I'm feeling good and have had more energy than previously. I know it's from the healthier eating (for the most part!)

Fresh Kills on Staten Island, once the world's largest landfill, is now well on its way to becoming one of the city's largest parks, and thanks to an agreement announced Monday by Mayor Michael Bloomberg, it's also becoming the city's largest source of clean energy. NY1's Bobby Cuza filed the following report.
Once a garbage dump, Fresh Kills is going green in more ways than one. Not only is the site being converted to parkland, it'll soon harvest the sun's energy, as land here is transformed into the city's largest solar power installation.
"It's fitting that this site, long associated with the most stubborn challenges of urban development, will now be a shining example of cutting-edge solutions," said Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
On Monday, Bloomberg announced that a private company called SunEdison had been selected to build solar panels on 47 acres. The facility will be able to generate up to 10 megawatts of electricity, enough to power about 2,000 homes, which will feed into the Con Ed system and double the city's solar energy production.
"It's clean energy, and it's just a start. It's just a start," said Staten Island Borough President James Molinaro. "I am certain that eventually, we'll have some windmills up here."
The project will come at no cost to the city. In fact, SunEdison will pay for use of the parkland under a 20-year lease.
"We have a design where we are blending in the generation capacity with the amenities that the park has to offer. So we'll have long walkways, and alongside the walkways, we will have the solar panels," said Attila Toth, general manager of SunEdison. "We are working very close with the city, making sure that's it's going to be an architecturally pleasing experience."
Next month, the city Department of Parks and Recreation will formally apply to re-map about 1,500 acres of the site as parkland, a critical step in the decades-long conversion process.
"First step is mapping it, but then, after that, what exactly the community wants to see on all parts of it," said Parks Commissioner Veronica White. "We have a few things that we've done already, like we bring people in for kayaking, as you may know, and there's been a road race here a couple of weeks ago. So it's, we're gradually opening it to the public."
The solar panel facility still has a lengthy environmental permitting process to undergo. If all goes as planned, officials hope to break ground in late 2015 and complete the project in 2016.
