VoWLAN, Wi-Fi, Hybrid and Skype Phones
So you can have VoWLAN on any internet accessible device, including a laptop, PDA or a cell phone. A cell phone that supports VoWLAN can be called a hybrid or a Wi-Fi phone. VoWLAN and 3G have similarities, but VoWLAN uses a wireless internet network (typically 802.11) rather than a cell phone network. Why is VoWLAN good? Wi-Fi-enabled cell phones bring together cellular and landline phone systems and allows consumers to take advantage of the best each has to offer. For instance ...

The Hybrid Car
A hybrid car has a small engine
that is fuel efficient, which is combined with an electric motor
that aids the engine when additional power is needed during
acceleration. The electric motor gets its power from battery banks
which continuously charge while you are driving.
Energy is conserved when you stop because the engine is shut off
automatically. Then, when you apply gas, it automatically restarts.
The hybrid car also uses a more advanced aerodynamic lightweight
body, and combines it with low roll resistant tires that are stiffer
and narrower to help reduce drag.
In 2004, out of the 17 million vehicles sold there were around
80,000 hybrid vehicles sold. By 2005 that number had increased by
1.2% to 200,000, and it's estimated that by 2007 more than 400,000
hybrids will be sold.
There are several hybrids currently available in North America. They
include the Honda Civic, Honda Accord, Honda Insight, Toyota Prius,
and the Mercury Mariner. There are also Hybrid SUVs available - the
Ford Escape, the Lexus 400H and the Toyota Highlander, and many new
models are on the way.
The Toyota Prius holds 52% of the hybrid market with just under
108,000 vehicles. The Honda Civic is the next most popular with
25,000 vehicles.
Now that consumer support for the hybrids has arrived, auto
manufacturers are increasing the pace at which they introduce hybrid
models. Just starting to come out are the Honda CR V SUV, Saturn Vue,
Hyundai Accent, and Kia Rio are being introduced as hybrid models.
In 2007 we will see the Toyota Camry, Honda Fit, Mazda Tribute,
Chevrolet Malibu, and Nissan Altima; and 2008 will see the Ford
Fusion and Mercury Millan available as hybrids.
And as an added bonus in the United States, consumers that purchase
a hybrid will get a tax break. Those purchasing fuel-cell vehicles
will get up to $8000 in tax breaks, and those purchasing alternative
fuel vehicles that weigh less than 8,500 pounds get a $2500 tax
break. It's a nice pleasant surprise!

Article of the
Day:
42 Volt Electrical Systems Conserve Fuel; Will They Need Maintenance?
Where are all those hybrid cars, which were going to change the industry forever? So you ask where are all those hybrid cars? You have no doubt seen the Toyota Pirius and all the media hoopla about Car of The Year and you probably said well great but it looks like a dog. Well in 2002 you are right the total sum of all hybrids sold in the US was less than 30,000. In 2003 Toyota sold less than 100,000 total hybrids. But we are in luck because the hybrids had DC motors in them too and need 0W-30 to lubricate and keep cool. M ...

Toyota's New Camry Hybrid to Get Four-Banger
Toyota won't be baited by Honda's V6-powered Hybrid Accord's horsepower challenge, at least as its 2006 Camry hybrid is concerned. The company is aiming to retain its fuel-conservation credibility (as dubious as it may be) -- while keeping down the hybrid price premimum -- by fitting its 2006 Camry hybrid with the same, 1.5-liter e-four as in the Prius. Its decision not to build a hotrodded hybrid, like the 255hp Accord, pleases our friends at Treehugger, who not surprisingly look askance (through wheatgrass-tinted lenses, o'course) at muscular hybrids that use their electric motors to add horsepower, not merely conserve fuel. One TH reader asks, "Why do people in the US need such powerful engines? Are you all carrying gold bullion under your seats?" Yes, Nigel, yes we are. And aren't you a dear for asking?
