udn-yam 宏碁交大 合開數位內容公司
記者林信昌／台北報導 宏碁為發展數位內容產業，決定與交大數位創意產業發展中心合作，成立「電子出版」、「數位音樂」兩家數位內容公司，與各大出版社及五大唱片公司洽談入股合作。
去年底宏碁集團捐助交大1億元，在宏碁渴望園區成立數位創意產業發展中心，宏碁董事長施振榮昨（18）日宣布宏碁基金會為鼓勵中學生發展創意，投入數位創作，將舉辦首屆「宏碁數位創作獎」。
施振榮說，宏碁數位創作獎精神為「搞創意無罪、中學生萬歲」，意在鼓勵中學生擺脫形式的束縛，發揮無限創意，投入數位創作，宏碁每年將贊助獎金300萬 元，其中個人首獎高達30萬元，是首獎獎金最高的中學生競賽。施振榮認為，國內發展資訊電子產業多年，一直以生產資訊硬體為主，軟體產業發展相形失色，未 來台灣發展數位內容產業仍然大有可為，但在知識經濟時代，數位內容產業需要更多人投入，也應該鼓勵產業投入創新，主導全球工業設計的流行。 因此，交大數創中心在交大教授劉育東規劃下，近期將成立電子出版與數位音樂兩家新公司，擬具初期投資與營運方案，積極爭取各界入股。
劉育東透露，電子出版公司已與主要出版業者接觸，希望找到新的營運模式；數位音樂公司也透過宏碁捐贈的數位音樂下載平台及版權管理機制，爭取五大唱片業者入股合作。
交大數創中心為了替國內數位音樂下載市場找到新出路，正與宏碁合作，研擬在半年內推動制定有關數位音樂下載的新法律，希望帶動數位音樂產業發展，規範產業秩序。

udn-yam 蒙古來台招商
記者萬中一／台北報導
蒙古積極對我招商，蒙古投資暨貿易署署長Ganzorig昨（18）日來台舉辦「蒙古投資及貿易說明會」。他指出，蒙古地大物博，適合台灣廠商前往投資輕工業、礦業及通信電子等相關產業。

Ganzorig去年曾經首次來台，今年他更會同石油署、礦務署等相關單位首長一起來台，擴大招商。經濟部投資業務處處長瞿大文、國貿局副局長歐嘉瑞、外貿協會秘書長趙永全等人昨天全程參與，吸引近百家國內廠商參加。

這是我國前年與蒙古互設代表處，該國第一次派出多位經貿高層官員來台。

據了解，截至前年底，在蒙古登記投資的台商有22家，實際營運的有10家，登記資本總額為900萬美元，主要投資項目是紡織業，產品項目以針織毛衣、運動衫，其他投資項目包括：機械、電腦資訊、電信等。

Ganzorig昨天說：「目前台商已增加到34家，實際投資金額達1,000萬美元，主要投資項目包括紡織、電信等。」他指出，這證明蒙古投資環境逐漸獲得台灣企業青睞。

前年6月，外貿協會在蒙古烏蘭巴拉成立台灣貿易中心，加強推動對蒙古的投資拓銷工作。當時貿協特地組團前往蒙古參加開館儀式，並進行考察。貿協指出，首度出擊蒙古商機約300萬美元，顯示蒙古具有開發的潛力。

  Infothela

Infothela is a mobile unit meant for providing and exchanging information through fax, internet, telephony etc. It will serve the purpose of education, entertainment, and provide agriculture based information, weather information, health care information, government information, etc.

The idea of designing an infothela is to provide, exchange information at village level where fruits of modern technology have not reached yet. The factor of mobility is of utmost important here as the thela can move from place to place in a day and one or more cluster of villages which are situated 3-4 kms apart in general and thus the thela can provide its services to all those villagers.

The thela will generate a self-employment avenues (just like PCOs) for urban and village population. It is a self-sustaining project aimed to deliver information and spread knowledge among poor masses.

Infothela

It is basically a pedal driven vehicle just like a common cycle rickshaw and there will be a personal computer on board which will be connected to internet using wireless technology. It is designed keeping in mind the village conditions in the country where electric power is not available all the time. So a pedal generator is designed in such a way that while pedaling, battery will keep on charging for running the on board computers and equipments. The battery power pack for Infothela has been developed.

It is also designed to accommodate diagnostic equipments like blood pressure testing machine, blood sugar testing machine, and some other primary health diagnostic and testing equipments.
