The PlayBook tablet has a similar design as Kindle Fire, but it does not have the content to help offset any losses on the hardware.

Companies will begin to leverage this fire hose of data to design products that will better match customer needs which will provide an exponentially more valuable customer experience.

The product people behind the application say they re-tooled the design to match the Fire's 7-inch, 1, 024 x 600 screen (and also, the tablet's heavily skinned UI, based on Android).
For these jobs, Mr Adair used support-and-rescue ships and semi-submersible fire-boats all of his own design.
What our man Pascal Brisset did is design a Linux system around a Gumstix Overo Fire computer-on-module, a Vuzix VR920 head-mounted stereoscopic 640 x 480 display (complete with 3D tilt sensor and 3D magnetic compass), WiFi, and Bluetooth modules -- the whole shebang resides in (and on) the eyewear, just the thing for secure telepresence and augmented reality applications (or just extra-private web browsing).

If it all becomes too much to bear, the design will even fuse on the inside to prevent fire burning the card from within.

He's attacking rocketry the way he would assemble software: design, build, test and repeat in rapid-fire succession to quickly determine what works and what doesn't.
But he said a fire was unusual, and that much would depend on whether the Boeing fire was a "one off" or was due to some design weakness.
Many revolvers have a design flaw known about since the 19th century: they can fire inadvertently if the hammer rests against a loaded chamber.
Which seems to me to be a design flaw on par with Klingon and Romulan ships not being able to fire their weapons while cloaked.
Because there is no need to design around the human form there are no ramps, no elevators and no fire escape staircases.
In the end, he commissioned a group of researchers at Ludwig-Maximilians University in Germany to design an instrument which produces light with a wavelength of 1, 300 nanometres and has the ability to fire 440, 000 pulses a second.
