Good thing can come in a small and cute package.

D-Link showed off today at CES 2012 a tiny mobile router that appeals to frequent travelers with tablets and mobile devices, the All-in-One Mobile Companion (mobile DIR-505).

Coming with two prongs to snap in any power outlet, the DIR-505 is about a the size of a small power adapter a regular router. It, however, offers more than just an instant wireless network. The router features a USB port that enables users to share videos, music and photos from an external hard drive or thumb drive to any iPad, iPhone or Android device.

The router comes with one Ethernet port to connect to an Internet source, such as a broadband modem or a network port of a hotel. As a wireless router, it features single stream wireless N standard (capping at 150Mbps), a Wi-Fi Protected Setup button for fast network setup and SharePort Cloud for sharing data via the Internet. When not used with an external hard drive, its USB port can also be used to charge a mobile device, such as an iPhone or iPad.

Considering its tiny size and the high level of ease on the eyes, the DIR-505 makes a good device that you want to stick somewhere inside your backpack or a car's globe compartment for use when needed. It definitely doesn't take much space at all.

D-Link says the new All-in-One Mobile Companion DIR-505 will be available in April for around $75.

Now Microsoft has been  granted a patent  that is designed to make its maps more pedestrian-friendly. Somehow, this patent has immediately been dubbed the  "avoid ghetto" feature . Someone seems to have already attempted a ghetto-related mapping exercise, in Ohio. (Credit:  CC JimBobThe Boss/Flickr ) The gist of it seems to be that Microsoft's GPS--which will  reportedly be inserted  into Windows Phones in the future--will use input from more varied and up-to-date sources in order to create suggested routes. Among these sources are crime statistics. Which has led  some to the thought  that this will somehow be an insult to poor neighborhoods. What is unclear, at least from my reading of the patent--which isn't written by anything resembling a human hand or mind--is what kind of crime statistics the...
