Intel Core i3 vs Intel Core 2 Duo Comparison- The Difference
This post explains the Difference Between the Intel Core i3 and Core 2 Duo processors.
Just like the Intel Core i7, the Core i3 is based on a new architecture – Clarkdale which is based on the new Westmere microarchitecture. The Intel Core i3 range offers only dual core processors unlike the Core i5 and i7 which offer Quad cores as well.

Pay for Android and iPhone Apps via Paypal in the iPhone Appstore and Android Market
Great news for all Android lovers. With Android hitting 50,000 apps, news has leaked out that Paypal is going to integrate Paypal payments in the Android Market. This is an exciting development, as the only option to pay for Android apps earlier was Google Checkout, which in addition to not being available in most countries, pretty much sucks.
The addition of Paypal as a payment option should drive many more sales as almost everyone has a Paypal account (You can set one up with a credit card in a couple of minutes). This should make Android application development a viable proposition for most developers, atleast comparable to the Apple Appstore.
Paypal has announced that it will enable both application payment options as well as in-App purchases in both the iPhone Appstore and the Android Market.
Thanks, iPhoneclub.

Infibeam (Amazon’s Indian clone) has just started accepting pre-orders for its new eBook reader - Pi (which unironically seems to be a Kindle clone sans the keyboard).
It is priced at Rs. 9999. The hardware specs seem to be almost similar to the Kindle except that it does not have a physical keyboard. The display is exactly the same as the Kindle’s – a 6″ E Ink. The battery is just a 1000 mAh Li-Poly battery though, compared to the Kindle’s 1530 mAh. It is just as compact as the Kindle 2 and much lighter.
It is powered by a Samsung S3C2440 processor and has 64MB of RAM.
It has 512 MB internal memory which can be expanded using a 4 GB MicroSD card. It supports the following file formats – PDF, EPUB, HTML, TXT, MOBI, DOC, JPG, BMP, PNG and MP3.
Shipping starts from 22nd February 2010.
Detailed specs after the break.
