Will this also mean we can copy JAWS in a PC into any digital
memory device and use it later in another?

Now, software to squeeze PC onto iPod

NEW DELHI: Mobile computing just got more portable. Making even the
latest
pocketbook-sized ultra-mobile personal computers look more like
lumbering
giants,

RingCube Technologies Inc has unveiled a software that can virtually
squeeze
a PC onto an iPod, USB keychain drive, cell phone or any gizmo with
digital

storage space.

 

 

RingCube's MojoPac software mirrors a computer's personal settings,
programs
and data on a storage device. Then, when it's connected to any computer
running

Microsoft Corp.'s Windows XP operating system, the virtual desktop will
run
in a window of the underlying PC.

 

"You're taking your digital soul with you on any portable storage
device,"
said Shan Appajodu, chief executive and co-founder of RingCube.

 

A user could toggle between the two computing environments. The company
contends that everything you do with your MojoPac PC will remain
private:
the underlying

host PC won't retain any of the files or cache copies of what you did on
MojoPac, the company said.

 

The software can be downloaded and tested at no cost for 30 days. If
bought
within a month of the product's release, it will cost $29.99 with up to
three

additional licenses for $14.99 each. After the introductory period, the
price will jump to $49.99, with up to three extra licenses costing
$24.99
each.

 

MojoPac will be shown off at the DEMOfall 2006 conference, an elite
showcase
of emerging technologies being held this week in San Diego.

 

"I lug my laptop around with me everywhere and the idea that I could
bring
my work environment around with me on a USB key is really attractive,"
said
DEMO

producer Chris Shipley.

 

The software works by creating a virtual operating system that runs the
programs users load onto the storage device. RingCube says MojoPac
supports
any

off-the-shelf applications, including PC video games and applications
such
as Adobe Photoshop or Microsoft Office.

 

The idea is to transform any computer found at Internet cafes, dorm
rooms,
libraries or business offices into your personal computer, said
Appajodu,
who

started developing the product more than two years ago.

 

Mountain View-based RingCube also hopes to introduce a prepackaged
version
of MojoPac such as on a keychain drive as a low cost computing
alternative
in

developing nations, where many can't afford their own computers. Many
people
in those areas can't afford personal computers but have access to
Internet

kiosks.

 

MojoPac is available as a software download for $49.99 at
