A leaked picture of what is apparently Nikon's upcoming Coolpix P7000 camera has surfaced, and if it's legitimate, it’ll look very similar to Canon's G11 camera, which means that they'll probably be going head to head with each other. Details on the P7000 weren't mentioned, but it's expected to sport a larger-than-usual image sensor and 720p video recording. Aside from the P7000, pictures of the S8100 and S80 were also leaked, giving us an idea of what to expect further down the food chain. The S8100 is expected to offer a 10x zoom lens and is capable of 1080p video recording. Full details are expected to arrive sometime soon.

Although Microsoft is invested in HTML5 technologies and is building its desktop browsers on HTML5, the company is saying that its multimedia-rch Silverlight plugin can take the web into deeper places than HTML5. Silverlight technology, like Flash, has not received a lot of attention lately with the rising impetus behind HTML5, but for Microsoft, Silverlight still is able to extend the web far beyond what HTML5 is capable of. According to Brad Becker of Microsoft, "On the Web, the purpose of Silverlight has never been to replace HTML; it's to do the things that HTML (and other technologies) couldn't in a way that was easy for developers to tap into. Microsoft remains committed to using Silverlight to extend the Web by enabling scenarios that HTML doesn't cover."

Wanting to commit identity fraud? Of course you don't, dear UberGizmo readers, as there is talks of a new law that can send Internet impersonators to prison if signed by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. And we're not talking just criminals, but pranksters, activists, and satirists could be affected. If and when the law is signed, California e-personators may face up to a year in jail and fines up to $1,000 if they are found to impersonate another person on the Internet with malicious intent. Additionally, victims can also file civil suits against their Internet impersonators, bringing the monetary higher if found guilty.

MIT energy researchers are at it again, and this time they're introducing self-healing solar cells that would make it easier to go green without any loss of power over time. The biggest constraint with solar technology is that the sun's rays could damage the materials used to harness the energy that solar rays provide. Sunlight will, over time, degrade many systems designed to harness the power of the sun, but plants have been efficient at utilizing solar power without any degradation, and MIT scientists are now mimicking plants in their new invention of self-healing solar cells. Essentially, plants address degradation issues by having their molecules break down and re-assemble from scratch. MIT professor Michael Strano and his team of student researchers have developed self-assembling molecules that can harvest solar power and be repeatedly broken down and reassembled with the addition or removal of a solution. Their work was published in Nature Chemistry. For full details of the process and Professor Strano's research, you can visit the MIT webpage to learn more.

Although HP has big plans for webOS on printers following its Palm acquisition, the company isn't shy to show off an Android model of the integrated Zeus/Zeen Photosmart printer, which essentially is a printer with a dock for a tablet to provide ease of printing capabilities. The good news is that Android seems to be on-board on this model, providing more options and choices for users besides webOS and shows that HP is still committed to a diversified product portfolio. HP has also built on a UI layer to make it easy to use, and will provide a touchscreen UI for docked mode. Now, time for the bad news. The eStation C510 lacks a Gmail app and does not appear to have access to Android Market for apps. However, to mitigate this, HP is providing some custom apps for printing Facebook, Flickr, and Snapfish photos. There's also deep integration for Barnes & Noble ereader app, the nook. We're wondering if Barnes & Noble, digital publishers, and HP got together to enable you to convert your digital books made in bits to physical books composed of atoms!

We are taught to create the strongest passwords that we can think of--no sequential letters or characters with at least six to eight characters in length, and that password must be changed every so often, perhaps every couple of months. However, according to the latest security research, this myth may in fact be making users more vulnerable to attacks since it disregards more important and serious vulnerabilities on the Internet, including the spread of malware. Researchers are saying that the idea of a strong password is giving us a false sense of security against more potent threats, including malwares such as keyloggers, which can essentially log your keystrokes and send your password out to unauthorized websites. And these keyloggers have nothing to do with a strong or weak password--once the virus or malware gains access to your computer, weak and strong passwords are equally targeted.

According to National Security Agency (NSA) Director Gen. Keith Alexander, the United States federal government has the overarching duty and responsibility in securing the Internet to safeguard against cyber-criminal activities. Top military officials concurred with Alexander, but the government still has yet to provide details of how it intends to tackle Internet security issues. According to site Threat Post, Alexander "expressed confidence that the country's information security apparatus was up to the task, but acknowledged the difficulty of securing the Internet, a network that many security experts see as hopelessly broken and flawed by design."

Remember the Samsung Gem that was listed in the Best Buy buyers guide a few days back? It was originally listed as "coming soon", giving us some hope that we'd be able to check out the phone soon. Now Best Buy has issued a little statement, claiming that it made a mistake and that there is no official launch date for the Samsung Gem just yet.

Do you dislike remote controls that cram all the buttons on one side, including the QWERTY keyboard? Aside from looking cluttered, it often makes it hard to find the right button that you're been looking for. Philips might have a solution for you, as the Philips Home Control DUAL has buttons on both sides of the control, with one side using the standard remote control buttons, and the other side sporting the QWERTY keyboard that you sometimes need. A touchpad is apparently also included in this remote, allowing users to control the cursor easily.
