Indianapolis, Indiana (PRWEB) January 17, 2012
A bill being considered by Indiana lawmakers that would require insurers to notify state transportation officials when they cancel private auto policies could make it more difficult for residents to skirt the state?s mandatory coverage requirements, according to Online Auto Insurance (OAI).
The proposed legislation should be of interest to Hoosier State residents who are having difficulty keeping up with payments on their policies or are planning on buying a no down payment auto insurance policy in order to register a vehicle and then canceling it once registration is in place.
Like most states, Indiana requires that motorists purchase a minimum amount of liability insurance to pay for any damages they may cause behind the wheel. State law mandates that drivers carry enough coverage to pay for up to $ 25,000 in bodily injury to one person, as much as $ 50,000 per accident and up to $ 10,000 in property damage.
Source: http://www.in.gov/idoi/2579.htm#6
A bill currently before a state Senate committee would require that insurers send cancellation notices within 10 business days to policyholders whose coverage is being cut off and to the state Bureau of Motor Vehicles.
The recipients of these notices would then have 20 days to inform the bureau of how they intend to satisfy the state?s financial responsibility requirements going forward.
State officials would be allowed to suspend the vehicle registrations of drivers who get such notices and do not respond to the bureau within 20 days.
With the economy still sluggish, many people have had a hard time keeping up with monthly premiums. But OAI points out that, while payments can be expensive, the cost of flouting state coverage requirements can be far greater.
OAI advises consumers in Indiana and other states to make sure they have coverage in place before they get behind the wheel.

2012 International CES, Las Vegas, NV, USA (PRWEB) January 16, 2012
CSR plc today announced that NAD Electronics has implemented CSR aptX audio compression technology to deliver enhanced audio in the new NAD? VISO 1 Wireless Digital Music System. aptX digital signal processing software not only enables VISO 1? users to enjoy their music via any Bluetooth? device, but it also integrates wirelessly with aptX enabled source devices including the Samsung Galaxy? Tab 7.0 Plus, Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7, Motorola Razr? and the Sharp AQUOS PHONE SH-01D?. When used in conjunction with aptX enabled source devices, it ensures that users have the best Bluetooth stereo listening experience possible.
?We?ve gone to great lengths to make certain that the NAD VISO 1 Wireless Digital Music System has the highest quality audio on the market,? said Greg Stidsen, Director of Technology and Product Planning for NAD Electronics. ?aptX audio compression technology met every one of our criteria for delivering the best possible audio experience for our customers ? aptX was really the only choice.? The VISO 1 has been awarded a CES Innovations 2012 Design and Engineering Award.
The continual convergence of personal portable electronic devices means that more and more people store music on the same device they use for phone calls, text messaging, web surfing, photography, navigation, shopping, banking and more. aptX audio technology has now made it possible for NAD to create an outstanding wireless music system that leverages Bluetooth to deliver CD-quality sound, without requiring that users relinquish their favourite device simply because of a limitation within their music system.
?We?ve been very impressed with the NAD VISO 1 at every step ? from concept through design and production,? said Noel McKenna, Senior Director of aptX for CSR. ?We?re pleased that aptX has enabled NAD Electronics to combine full-featured wireless music capability with the CD-quality audio experience the market now demands.?

(PRWEB) January 10, 2012
Dallas, TX ? January 09, 2012 ? RedBumper, (http://redbumper.com/) a new breed automotive inventory management company, today announced that it will unveil the first true mobile inventory management system at the 2012 NADA & ATD Convention and Expo in Las Vegas, NV, February 3-6. The new system is entirely Smartphone-centric and enables auto dealers to achieve faster turns, higher profits and volume sales, all at around 1/3 the cost of current products on the market. It also enables dealers to capture any and all inventory opportunities including existing service customers, trade-ins, auctions, and private consumer listings. Workshops will be held throughout the convention to unveil the new system. To register for a workshop visit: http://redbumper.com/nada.aspx
RedBumper was founded by Bruce Thompson, former CEO and founder of American Auto Exchange (AAX). Thompson is credited for creating and pioneering the modern day inventory tools that are broadly used in dealerships across the United States. When AAX was acquired by JM Family Solutions in 2005 it was the management tool of choice for 4 out of the top 5 largest dealer groups in the country. Thompson is once again introducing revolutionary tools to the industry with the launch of RedBumper, which offers tools and efficiencies that are far beyond anything available on the market today. The tools are in high demand; RedBumper is currently installing at the rate of 100 dealerships per month.
?Auto dealer inventory management systems have not kept up with the advances in Internet and mobile technology over the last decade. Sure, there are stocking tools with graphs and charts; pricing tools that show us how our competitors are pricing cars on AutoTrader and Cars.com, but where?s the real innovation? In my NADA workshops I?ll reveal the first real mobile inventory management system that is not only intuitive, but also the most powerful on the market. RedBumper?s mobile platform enables auto dealers to capture EVERY imaginable source of inventory, and it?s completely mobile. It?s like taking current inventory management systems and putting them on steroids,? Thompson said.
RedBumper?s new product suite to be unveiled at NADA includes:
SmartLot: SmartLot works in real-time on a Smartphone mobile platform, providing the ultimate in flexibility; an inventory management tool in the palm of the hand. SmartLot is the first inventory analytic tool to blend historical performance with local market data and provides the optimal inventory stocking recommendations. As dealers acquire and liquidate vehicles, the tool seamlessly analyzes the performance of each and compares the dealership?s needs to the hottest current market performers, maintaining a continual pulse on market supply and demand. Recommendations are provided in 3-5 seconds and, unlike other tools, it does not require that users search through charts and graphs. SmartLot is also the only tool that has a built in Service Drive Harvester, a dynamic tool that helps dealers acquire inventory from their own customers on the service drive.
Service Drive Harvester: Built into SmartLot, Service Drive Harvester helps turn the service drive into an auction lane. It Searches through a dealer?s DMS and finds vehicles on the buy list which are in a positive equity position. The service advisor simply scans the VIN and if vehicle is on buy list, the appraisal comes right across.
Consumer Lane: Also built into SmartLot, this tool is perhaps best described as; ?a used car superstore in a box?. The dealership simply enters specific used vehicles it needs and Consumer Lane automatically queries from its internet partners. It quickly delivers used vehicles listed for sale by consumers in the past 24 hours. 60-70% of consumers selling a used vehicle are in the market for a replacement, so Consumerlane provides both used car inventory and in market car buyers.
SmartApp:????The first mobile app on the market to include both a built in VIN scanner and QR code scanner. This dynamic tool enables dealerships to be at the forefront when consumers are shopping for a vehicle. When the consumer downloads the app, visits any dealer?s lot and scans a vehicle, this data is immediately provided to the dealership that sponsors the app. It enables that dealer to offer to beat any dealer?s price, or make the best bid to the consumer. It also provides the dealer with an insight into the consumer?s shopping habits with data on all vehicles the consumer has scanned, providing powerful information to help in the sales process. The app can also send coupons to specific consumers, offering attractive offers to help incentivize them in the buying process.

New York, New York (PRWEB) January 10, 2012
A fitness trainer was injured in an elevator accident in his luxury Midtown West apartment building, according to the New York Post (1/6/2012).
In a lawsuit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, Corey Hill says an elevator he was in went into a free fall before stopping abruptly. Allegedly, Hill suffered neck and back injuries in the New York elevator accident and spent approximately two weeks in the hospital. Now he is ?a virtual shut-in? who needs help to get around, reported the New York Daily News (1/6/2012).
Apparently, Hill did not realize he was seriously hurt until the day after the elevator accident in New York when he had trouble walking. He is suing his landlord and two elevator companies who maintain and inspect the building elevators, said the NYDN.
New York personal injury lawyers at The Perecman Firm understand a delay in reporting elevator accident injuries may affect the outcome of a lawsuit.
?If you are in an elevator accident in New York, contact the police and an experienced New York elevator accident lawyer as soon as possible so relevant evidence at the elevator accident scene can be obtained and preserved. A thorough inspection of the elevator accident scene is very important. Photos will need to be taken of the elevator, all of the components and the elevator?s control room. If severe injury or death has resulted from the New York elevator accident, qualified experts may be required,? explained New York personal injury lawyer Perecman, founder of The Perecman Firm, one of New York?s personal injury law firms.
If you have been injured or lost a loved one in a New York elevator accident or personal injury accident, please contact the experienced personal injury lawyers at The Perecman Firm at http://www.perecman.com.

NYC, NY (PRWEB) January 09, 2012
B&H Photo is excited to share with photo enthusiasts the release of the latest Canon G1X Fixed Lens Camera.
The new Canon G1X replaces the PowerShot G12, and offers improvements and advanced technologies that make this camera behave like it?s much larger than it really is. The compact G1 X is armed with a new 1.5-inch High Sensitivity CMOS sensor, which is larger than a 4/3″ sensor, and nearly as big as the APS-C-sized sensors found in professional DSLRs. This gives one a light-sensitive area which is nearly 6.3 times larger than the last generation of G-Series digital cameras, and delivers a quality level that?s unheard of in a compact, pocket-friendly camera.
The shooting and photo effects in the G1X stretch the photographer’s creativity. A brief sampling of modes includes: Custom, Portrait, Landscape, Sports, Handheld Night Scene, Program (and all his friends: Shutter-Priority, Aperture-Priority, the aforementioned manual, etc.), Super Vivid, Nostalgic, Toy Camera Effect, Monochrome, Poster Effect, and then some.
Another interesting feature is the Movie Digest which allows one to create a video of highlights from a day of shooting. When Movie Digest is on the camera will automatically record a short video clip (up to 4 seconds) every time one shoots a still image. The entire day’s worth of clips will be automatically combined into a single video. Of course, the High Dynamic Range shooting mode takes a number of shots to ensure one will get a photo that works – one underexposed, one overexposed, and one normal. All three are combined for an image that is balanced and evenly detailed with flattering shadows and highlights.
The lens on the G1X was designed to take full-advantage of its oversized 14.3 Megapixel sensor. And a powerful DIGIC 5 Image Processor has been employed to improve noise reduction, allowing this little camera to achieve an ISO up to 12800, ultimately enabling one to photograph in low light with less blur and shorter exposure times. The f/2.8 lens has 4x optical zoom, which utilizes Canon?s UA Lens technology to suppress aberration throughout the zoom range. With a 35mm equivalent focal length of 28-112mm, this lens will capture any scene, from portraiture to landscapes.
Whether one has been photographing for years and desire a compact camera that doesn?t compromise on image quality and features, or a beginner who needs an excellent camera that can be used immediately, the new Canon PowerShot G1 X is a formidable and exciting new option. There?s a lot more to dig into on this camera: full 1080p HD video with a dedicated movie button and stereo sound, an optical viewfinder, a variable-angle 922,000 dot 3-inch LCD screen, 14-bit RAW shooting, HDR, tracking auto focus?and a heck of a lot more.
Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor
The latest-generation Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor brings phenomenal increases in processing speed and power. Improved chip architecture and algorithms deliver greatly expanded functionality with further refinement in image quality. Improved noise reduction produces clearer images when shooting in low light at high ISO speeds. Enhanced i-Contrast performance adjusts differences between light and dark areas to achieve even more natural-looking results. The faster processing speed also results in faster continuous shooting capability. The DIGIC 5 Image Processor also makes possible a highly advanced automatic white balance system. Whereas conventional white balance makes an overall adjustment based on a single type of light source, the Canon Multi-Area White Balance analyzes several areas of the image to determine whether different adjustments are needed, for example, for the main subject and the background.
