What If The iPad Had Arrived Before The iPhoneYesterday, I was trying to find tech news that didn’t relate in some way to Apple iPad and, to be honest, struggling.  So instead, let’s take a look at an alternative reality.

Let The Next Web take you to a world where we’ve been using iPads for years and now Apple’s just gone and announced a pocket-sized version with a camera and phone built in.

They’ve only gone and called it the iPhone…I began to reflect on the whole build up to last Wednesday’s Apple iPad announcement.

The months of speculation and hype, in amongst the counter-speculation and and counter-hype.  The rumours allegedly seeded by Apple, along with the rock-solid stories, videos and screenshots emerging from bloggers-in-the-know most of which turned out to be fake after all.

Sony blazes the trail with eco-friendly laptopWhile “green” technology has often been used as much as a marketing catchphrase as a legitimate way to save the planet, it’s undoubtedly an increasingly vital part of the focus on consumer electronics in the future.

With the number of products being made every year, and the degree to which so many are considered “disposable,” the sooner products can be both more energy-efficient and made of safer, recycled materials, the better.

A 27 Years Old Apple Tablet Has Been Unveiled

January 25, 2010 |12:19 | General  By : Team X

While everyone these days is wondering what Steve Jobs has up its sleeves to show the world next Wednesday, Frog Design has unearthed some early prototypes from their archives that designers of this company had created for a young Steve Jobs back in the early 80s. It is extremely interesting to compare “Bashful”, the Tablet of yesterdays with the Apple Tablet of Tomorrow.

 

A 27 Years Old Apple Tablet Has Been Unveiled


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

See for yourself whether Steve Jobs mindset has been influenced with the transformation of technology over the last 27 years, or the Tablet still depicts this same old times concept. Everything from attachable keyboard to floppy drive, stylus can be seen except for the capacitive multitouch friendly screen.

27 years is too short a period as far as history is concerned, but in the world technology where rapid and radical changes are taking places over night, this is too long a period. Since 1980, lot of water has passed under the bridge.

So much has changed since then that this gadget almost gives a “feel of an archeological find in comparison to what we perceive and what we” expect to see from the upcoming Tablet. Nonetheless, this prototype Tablet is something that Apple and Steve Jobs must be feeling proud of today.

HTC apes iPhone with big-screen beautyThe iPhone and Google's Android may be sucking up all the oxygen of late, but HTC today placed a big bet on Windows Mobile 6.5 with the launch of its HD2 touchscreen phone.

The most noticable feature of the HD2 is its 4.3-inch, high resolution screen. It's one of the biggest on a smart phone so far.

It's also the first Windows-based phone that features a capacitive touch display, enabling users to zoom and resize websites, files, PDF documents and pictures by "pinching" the screen - just like the iPhone.

Review - Google's new Nexus One is good, but not super'

January 16, 2010 |13:07 | General  By : Team X

Review Googles new Nexus One is good, but not superMany people consider the iPhone the ultimate “smart” phone. Now Google wants you to think of its new Nexus One device as a “super” phone.

The Nexus One offers a sleek handset, the latest version of Google Inc.'s easy-to-use Android operating software and compelling features such as voice recognition technology for speaking e-mails and tweets.

Yet, it's not as super duper as it could be.  Google is selling the Nexus One directly to consumers for $529. The phone's unlocked to support multiple phone networks, but the current version is only compatible with GSM wireless technology. That limits the device in the United States to T-Mobile or AT&T – and only T-Mobile if you want high-speed Web surfing. You can also buy the Nexus One for $179 with a two-year service contract with T-Mobile.

Smaller gadgets are shrinking the handbag

January 15, 2010 |13:48 | General  By : Team X

Smaller gadgets are shrinking the handbagResearch commissioned by UK department store Debenhams shows that the average handbag weight has dropped dramatically from around 3.5kg in 2006/2007 to 1.5kg last year (2009) - this is a shrinkage of 57pc.

Furthermore the researchers assert that rather than modern technology adding to the 'kitchen sink' array of lipgloss, car keys, books, hairspray etc found in depths of the average handbag.

The shrinking size of laptops, mp3 players and powerful smartphones like the Blackberry and iPhone has meant that the busy female can cram more in a smaller bag.

"Two years ago, women were carrying around 7.3lbs - the equivalent of three and a half bags of sugar - everywhere they went,"  said Sue Tebbitts, handbag buyer at Debenhams. "Finally the burden placed upon working women is falling - and it's all thanks to technology."
