KUALA LUMPUR – October 17, 2007 – SonicWALL, Inc. (NASDAQ: SNWL), a leading secure network infrastructure company, today launched a new initiative intended to accelerate SonicWALL’s ongoing move into the enterprise market. The broad-based global initiative is based around SonicWALL’s E-Class solution set, a premium-performance line of secure networking, email security and remote network access offerings engineered to drive down the cost and complexity of deploying a secure infrastructure. Igniting this initiative, SonicWALL today launches a new family of multi-core processor firewalls that combine enterprise-class protection and performance in a single appliance: the NSA E7500, the NSA E6500 and the NSA E5500.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen something from Palm; but it seems that they haven’t been sitting idle. They’re about to release Palm Centro, at a sub US$100 price! Let’s hope that it’ll be priced similarly when it reaches Malaysian shores.

From the looks of it, the Centro seems much more livelier than the Treos. It runs on Palm OS 5.4.9 and comes with a built-in 1.3MP camera. The Centro also has 64MB of built-in memory. You can add up to 4GB more with a MicroSD card.

Connectivity does not seem to be a core strength of the Centro. It only has Bluetooth 1.2 connectivity and it’s not WiFi-enabled.

I think that the Centro could be a pretty decent first smartphone for non-techies.

One of the reasons I resigned from an earlier job I had in Singapore was because of the unbearable queuing time I had to endure after the September 11 and SARS outbreak double-whammy.
