Juniper Networks and OnLive has announced that the companies will form a strategic partnership. Through this partnership, Juniper Networks will become the exclusive network provider for Onlive’s infrastructure. Also the companies plan to develop a cloud-based service that will deliver an interactive media experience to mobile, desktop and presentation devices, instantly and from any location. OnLive’s cloud-based video compression technology has introduced a new way to play video games. OnLive moves the computing function to the network so that the user computer or device becomes a display device instead. With this technology media rich content and application can be transmitted instantly and securely to desktops and mobile devices through the cloud. Wit

More than simple IT news!
Micron and Intel have jointly announced a new 3-bit-per-cell NAND device that Micron will begin producing in the fourth quarter of 2009.
The new chip will be manufactured in 32-gigabit densities, at the 34-nm manufacturing node. The technology was developed by IM Flash Technologies, the joint venture between the two companies.
Like the name suggests, the 3bpc technology stores three bits per cell. So-called SLC flash memory stores a single bit per cell, while the more common MLC technology usually stores two bits per cell. Storing more bits per cell allows a chip manufacturer to produce flash memory with a higher bit density, allowing a chip maker to essentially shrink the die size.
