Google’s Sky Map Officially Open-Sourced

2012-01-22T04:05:00.001-08:00

One of Google’s more interesting apps is set for a major evolution. The Sky Map application has gone from being a modest app highlighting the Android platform’s capabilities to becoming one of the most popular apps on Android devices, as 20 million Android users use it. As part of the app’s continued growth, Google has decided to “donate the Sky Map to the community”.

Google is tag-teaming with educators and astronomy enthusiasts to bring the future of the Sky Map to the masses. It will collaborate with Carnegie Mellon University which will see further development of the Sky Map through a series of student projects. Moreover, Google has made the app open-sourced, allowing astronomers to “take the code and augment it as they wish”.

If you don’t have the Sky Map on your Droid, why not give it a whirl today? You can find it at the Android Market or using the QR code below.

Nokia Lumia 800 battery fix coming in two weeks

2012-01-19T12:13:00.000-08:00

Nokia’s second patch attempting to amend the battery issues that have stunted the launch of the Nokia Lumia 800 is to land in a matter of weeks, the Finnish phone manufacturer has revealed.

Whilst the former Symbian pioneer acknowledged the issues with its first Windows Phone 7 device shortly after launch users have been left waiting for a fix with the second half of the two stage solution now confirmed to start rolling out during the next two weeks.

With handsets automatically alerting users as to when the update is available the patch will see battery drain problems amended as well as improved Wi-Fi connectivity.

Nokia Lumia 800 Specs

Boasting a 3.7-inch ClearBlack AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass the Nokia Lumia 800 is the leader of the still sparse collection of Windows Phone with a 1.4GHz processor paired with 16GB of internal storage.

An 8-megapixel camera lines up on the rear with an LED flash and Carl Zeiss optics for impressive snaps whilst video recording capabilities taken care of by 720p HD capabilities at 30 frames-per-second.

Apple Sues Samsung !

2012-01-18T12:09:00.000-08:00

It hasn't been too long since Apple sued Samsung over its GALAXY Tab 10.1N. Even before the dust has settled on that incident, the Cupertino-based company has filed a fresh lawsuit targeting ten smartphones of the Korean manufacturer, including the flagship GALAXY S II. As expected, the latest case is also based around the product design, and Apple now wants to ban sales of Samsung's smartphones in Germany.

Those wondering how the hell ten phones managed to infringe Apple's patents should have a look at Samsung's line-up. There's not much of a design difference between many of its entry-level and high-end smartphones. Therefore, according to my theory, any Samsung device that shares its design with the GALAXY S II is automatically targeted by Apple. Honestly, I've started losing track of these patent wars, but I'll keep you updated on this one as soon as the verdict comes out.

According to Oracle, Google is making $10 million in annual revenue per day from Android activations

2012-01-18T12:02:00.000-08:00

Recently Oracle made a surprising move in its Java lawsuit with Google by asking the court for a stay of its patent claims for nine months in favor of a near-term copyright trial. What’s most interesting is Oracle’s analysis on Google and the economic impacts of Android.

If you remember, Andy Rubin reported that Android activations are now at 700,000 per day. Oracle made the following statement about that:

“While this case awaits trial, more than 700,000 Android-based devices are activated every day, all fundamentally built around the copyrighted Java APIs and the enhanced performance enabled by Oracle’s patents. Each day’s worth of activations likely generates approximately $10 million in annual mobile advertising revenue for Google.”

There’s no indication of how Oracle came to this conclusion, but for whatever reason, it appears they’re assuming annual revenues of roughly $14 per Android user.

They also went on to say that Android is also important to Google for the growth of its social network Google+, and Android is not as open as everyone thinks.

One other interesting note is they’re predicting that daily Android activations will hit 2.5 million per day within the next twelve months. It will be interesting to see if that goal is met because that is one huge-ass number.

Microsoft introducing ReFS file system with Windows server 8

2012-01-17T13:21:00.000-08:00

Hungry for a shiny new file system? Windows 8's got your back, or at least, Windows server 8 will. In his latest Building Windows 8 post, Steven Sinofsky introduces the Resilient File System, or ReFS, as a "next generation file system" built on the foundations of the NTFS. By reusing NTFS' API / semantics engine, ReFS hopes to retain a high level of compatibility with NTFS features. Underneath the existing semantics engine, the new file system introduces a new storage engine that hopes to protect against latent disk errors, resist data corruption, uphold metadata integrity, grant large volume, file and directory size -- and well, just build a better storage system in general. It's all quite complicated, but if you feel up to the technical snuff, click through the source link below.

National Security Agency releases SE Android, A security enhanced version of Google’s Android

2012-01-17T13:13:00.001-08:00

The National Security Agency (NSA) just announced their security enhanced version of Android, dubbed SE Android. Stephen Smalley of the NSA recently explained what SE Android does at the 2011 Linux Security Summit. Basically it brings Mandatory Access Control to Android’s Linux kernel and it works to protect against malicious exploits. Every file and folder that Android has access to can be locked down with encryption.

To build SE Android, you need to download and compile the latest code from the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and put SE Android on top of it. It’s intended for emulators and the Nexus S, but there won’t be much support. You need to be familiar with Android from source and Linux/Unix-based systems.

Audi @ CES 2012

2012-01-14T05:33:00.000-08:00

The Audi booth is a Bauhausian wet dream. Stark white floors gazed upon by a grid of fluorescent lighting topped off by a sheet of mirrors. The outside is surrounded by panels spaced just far enough apart to let the light escape onto the show floor. Inside are cars of the present, cars of the future, and interactive driving demos.

It helps that the booth is an oasis amidst a desert of car audio tech—which I’m pretty has been in stasis since the mid-2000s—but you could have put this among the Sony’s and Samsung’s and Microsoft’s and it still would have stood out. Beyond any rationalization I could provide, the booth has a visceral awe factor when you see it in person. Its pull is magnetic. I could care less about anything they had on display (oh wait, take that back, Tron concept car, do want), yet the words “ooh, shiny” literally came out of my mouth

iPad 3 Now In Production, Rumored March Release

2012-01-14T05:13:00.000-08:00

Macotakara reported that iPad 3 production has begun in Foxconn and should be ready for a March release. The most discussed new feature of the device is the display as many rumors hint at a higher resolution retina like display. The company Sharp is rumored to supply the displays as Apple’s relation with Samsung has deteriorated over the last year. Macotakara has been right in the past so hopefully they are correct about this information.

The iPad 3 will most likely have a next generation processor making it not vulnerable to current jailbreaks. With many working on a5 hopefully they will branch out to A6 when the device comes out.

Belkin WeMo Home Automation System

2012-01-11T06:30:00.000-08:00

Home automation is probably what the home of the future may feature. But most people may now be able to have a taste of what this home would be like. And it would not take a home owner to tear down walls and rewiring cables to experience what home automation technology can do for the current home. There are devices like the new Belkin WeMo that may help home owners today have that taste of home automation.

The Belkin WeMo is a simple home automation system that will allow home owners to have control over electronic appliances and devices in the home from virtually anywhere using a smartphone, laptop or tablet PC. Two initial products included in this simple home automation system are the WeMo Home Control Switch and the WeMo Motion Sensor.

The Future of PC Gaming called Project Fiona

2012-01-11T05:45:00.000-08:00

Project Fiona is a proof-of-concept and a prototype in the most serious way. What you're looking at is version 0.2. (Razer's already finished work on five more iterations of Fiona—they're up to version 0.8 at their labs, and expecting to hit 1.0 by the end of the year.) I can tell when I feel the heat coming out of the vents, as the fan spins up to cool the Intel Core i7 breathing fire inside. Or when the right analog stick feels a little sticky.

But when I run my finger along the edges of the brushed aluminum frame that provides Fiona's remarkably rigid structural integrity, or try to make its skeleton flex and creak, it feels more done, more solid than some other very finished tablets I've used. "And frankly, the final product will look much different," says Razer CEO Min-Liang Tan of Fiona. Which is also why I can't tell you battery life, or how much it'll cost, though Tan is aiming for under $1000 for the Windows 8-powered tablet—meaning it'll have full PC powers, though Razer is adding some software of their own on the gaming side, like the interface for browsing games. (Side note: Do you remember OQO, a little company that built little computers that were both radically ahead and behind their time? Appropriately, a lot of their engineers worked on this.)

It's lighter than you'd think, for a tablet that's at least as thick as three iPad 2s—it'll be thinner, promises Tan—and has a pair of sticks bolted onto it. But I rest my elbows on my knees to playWarhammer 40K: Space Marine. And it feels totally natural. If you've ever used an Xbox 360 or PS3 controller, you know how to use Fiona's controls; Razer software takes care of the mapping PC controls to the buttons.

Do you know what the minimum spec requirements are for Space Marine? A 2GHz dual-core CPU, 2GB RAM, 256MB video card. And it ran beautifully on Fiona's glossy 10.1-inch, 1280x800 display. I held PC gaming in my hands, and I killed a bunch of Orcs and it felt fantastic. It sounds stupid that a 10.1-inch screen could be as immersive as a 24-inch display, but when you're able to bring your game up to your face, and it moves with you and your body, it's a different kind of connection. Speaking of moving! It's got an accelerometer and force feedback and a camera, so Razer's already thinking ways PC games could take advantage of gamers having access to traditional controls, touch and movement simultaneously.

The deepest PC gamers might balk at an analog stick and a handful of buttons truly replicating the PC gaming experience on the go—and I agree an RTS seems pretty hard to squeeze into those controls—but the potential of ubiquitous, for-real PC gaming anywhere, as defined by the games, is pretty incredible to consider even for the most hardened of PC gamers. And even if Fiona is not for them, they should still be thrilled to salty, Cheeto-infused tears that this thing (and the Blade) exists. It pushes the boundaries of what PC gaming is. And Razer might just be the only company willing to reinvigorate PC gaming—the exact kind of PC gaming that gamers love, not Zynga Facebook games—by radically re-inventing it at a hardware level.

OLED Screens for Television 4mm thick

2012-01-11T05:29:00.000-08:00

Samsung Electronics Co. and LG Electronics Inc. are showing off 55-inch TV sets that use organic light-emitting diodes, or OLEDs, instead of plasma or liquid crystals.
The TVs were unveiled this week at the International Consumer Electronics Show, an annual showcase in Las Vegas for the latest smartphones, tablet computers and other consumer-electronic devices.
Why it's hot: It's the first time in years we're seeing a new screen technology for TVs. OLED screens can be extremely thin. LG's set is just 4 millimeters thick. That's one-sixth of an inch. The picture quality is stunning too, because OLED TVs can present highly saturated colors and a nearly perfect black.
The upshot: The screen technology is in use in high-end smartphones, but it has been very difficult to make larger screens with consistent results. In 2007, Sony Corp. started selling an 11-inch OLED TV for about $2,500, but it never followed it up with a bigger model. Since then, LG and Samsung have shown prototype OLED TVs at the annual CES show, but hadn't revealed any marketing plans until this week.
The downside: Samsung and LG haven't announced a price, but expect the sets to cost more than $5,000 each. It'll take at least a few years for prices to come down enough for most people.

Twitter DUMPS Google!!

2012-01-10T16:10:00.000-08:00

Twitter is now officially speaking out against Google’s new search featuresthat give prominent placement to content from its own social network, Google+.

In a statement, Twitter complained that “people, publishers, news organizations and Twitter users” would suffer from not being able to quickly see tweets in search results.

“As we’ve seen time and time again, news breaks first on Twitter; as a result, Twitter accounts and Tweets are often the most relevant results,” the company said.

Twitter General Counsel Alex Macgillivray, among other thought leaders who criticized Google’s Google-centric approach, had already personally called today’s launch a “bad day for the Internet.”

Google and Twitter have a history on this topic. Like most public Web sites, Twitter likes to get traffic from Google. Google used to have a paid deal to get real-time access to Twitter’s live “firehose” of tweets. It doesn’t anymore (though Bing does).

That doesn’t mean Google isn’t allowed to show tweets in its search results, or anything like that. Google just has to use its crawlers and other publicly available tools to index public tweets. And almost all tweets — of which there are 250 million per day — are public.

Microsoft's Kinect Headed To Windows This Feb

2012-01-10T13:37:00.000-08:00

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has disclosed that the Kinect is officially headed to Windows this February. This was revealed in Ballmer's keynote speech at the ongoing 2012 Consumer Electronics Show. Released at the end of 2010, the Xbox 360's motion controller was co-opted by the open source community within no time after Adafruit put a bounty on it. On the gaming front, however, the Kinect hasn't been able to pull itself out of the casual gaming rut. The most one can expect out of the controller are superfluous implementations in mainstream X360 games and generic Wii Sportsclones.

While Ballmer hasn't divulged pricing details, Amazon has already listed the Windows version at $250 (Rs 13,250 approx). Although that may be a placeholder price, I sure hope Microsoft isn't planning on selling it at a $100 premium over the console version. That would be daft, considering its target demographic - the DIY enthusiasts - has already found a way to use the console version. Finally, let's not forget the Wavi Xtion, because Prime Sense and ASUS' awkwardly-named love child is also the same thing for all intents and purposes.

Tizen OS exposed, apparently running on an unknown Samsung 'I9500'

2012-01-10T12:20:00.000-08:00

An outfit called Realnorth, which claims to be frustrated by the lack of openness around the Tizen OS, has gotten its hands on the SDK and released some screenshots to prove it. If legit, they reveal a basic UI that seems to be inspired by a range of other OSs -- in addition to Tizen's progenitor, MeeGo -- while also managing to look a bituninspired. It's hard to know whether the absence of frills like widgets is due to this being an early build, or whether it's because Tizen is intended as a lower-end OS, but either way it's too early to make any harsh judgement. Curiously, the user-agent used to grab the screenshots is listed as a "Samsung GT-I9500," which at the very least reminds us that there's a Tizen-running Sammyphone somewhere on the horizon. In fact, this could even become Bada 3.0.

Microvision's PicoMagic apps bring touch interactive, 3D mobile displays to your pico projector

2012-01-10T05:13:00.000-08:00

Microvision unveiled a slew of new tools for pico projector enthusiasts today, with its new PicoMagic platform. Fueled by the company's PicoP Gen 2 HD laser display engine, PicoMagic offers a host of new applications to pico presenters, including two on display at this year's CES -- touch interactive and 3D mobile displays. The former, rather obviously, allows users to manipulate images and icons with their sure-handed fingers on any surface, while the latter, known as PicoP 3D, takes this capability to the third dimension. These PicoMagic apps will be available to Gen 2 HD laser display engine owners by late 2012, but you can find more information right now, in the press release that awaits you after the break.

First Pocket Projector with Integrated Touchpad and Android Operating System

2012-01-10T05:11:00.000-08:00

FAVI Entertainment, a leading provider of digital projection and visual display products, today announced here at CES 2012 the launch of a powerful, industry-first pocket projector. Available now, the FAVI A3-WiFi features an integrated touchpad, Android operating system and WiFi connectivity. Once the A3-WiFi is in range of a signal, users can access the Internet via the Google Chrome browser and project video onto an available wall or screen.

The A3-WiFi is an ideal pocket projector for users who watch videos or photo slideshows from either the unit’s internal memory or online. An available USB port enables users to connect USB-based keyboards and mice for an end-to-end mini-computer experience on a projector. The A3-WiFi, the world’s first pocket projector with integrated touchpad and Android operating system, boasts a native resolution of 800x600 with a contrast ratio of 1000:1. The projector features 2GB of internal storage with expandable memory up to 32GB.

New Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7

2012-01-10T04:46:00.000-08:00

Galaxy Tab 7.7 has a 1.4 GHz dual-core processor hidden beneath a 7.7-inch Super AMOLED Plus display, the true star of the show. It's a 720p HD display at 1280 x 800 resolution, which is sure to knock your socks off. It seems like each iteration of the Galaxy Tab line comes packed with a more gorgeous display, the 7.7 is no exception. It's really, really nice. I'll tell you what else is nice after the break.

The screen is great, but that's where my excitement puttered out. The Galaxy Tab 7.7 ships with Honeycomb 3.2, which unfortunately isn't Ice Cream Sandwich. And it's got the sameTouchWiz that's atop all existing Galaxy Tabs. Call me crazy, but I'm ready for a refresh. It's nice that Samsung keeps experimenting with sizes, but I'm dying to see what's "next" for their tablet line.

Coupled with Verizon's still-unbelievable LTE connectivity, the guts inside manage to propel the Galaxy Tab 7.7 quite nicely. Honeycomb is as smooth as I've seen it, and with that powerful processor, the tablet should be able to handle most of what you throw at it.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 also features a microSD card slot which can take up to 32GB microSD cards, plus 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 3.0, A-GPS and a three megapixel camera on the back with an LED flash and auto-focus, up front there is a 2 megapixel fixed focus camera for video chat.

Legal Siri Port | Status thus far!

2012-01-09T12:02:00.000-08:00

Hi this is Arjun Bhatnagar and I am developer for i4Siri. Everyone has been asking for an update on the i4Siri project and trust me we have been working day and night to provide you with some real updates. There are no ETA’s for the i4Siri release yet, but we are moving along quite quickly.

As you know i4Siri is a Siri port in which Siri connects to Google’s public servers instead of Apple’s. This allows for stability because Apple can block any connection to its servers at any time (which is too risky for a large public server). The connection to Google is only to interpret what you speak. After Google has interpreted your spoken words it is sent to our server. This is where the magic happens.

Currently we have Mark DiFranco working fully on the Google part. He has designed the connection to and from Google and is almost done with our complete break off from Apple’s servers. The past few days he has worked day and night on this and has helped push i4Siri forward. Thanks to his tremendous help we have been able to focus on getting the server ready to make Siri’s functions happen.

To make Siri function properly, we would have to write many “Siri Proxy Plugins”. Each plugin would have to handle weather, phone, notes, reminders, iPod, etc. These plugins are being developed by Alex, Andrew, and I. Development began slowly because the whole concept of Siri Plugins was new to everyone. It took quite awhile for everyone to study and research how the plugins are built. I began and finished Siri’s plugins to understand Web Search, Yelp, and WolframAlpha (the plugin that tells you how many calories in a donut and what 4 times 4 is). When I started work on the phone and calendar plugins I reached a complete stop. There was no method out there on how to connect to these applications. I spent a good day just thinking of how to get these plugins working. After googling around I had an epiphany! I knew how all of Siri’s functions would be programmed and how we could install many custom plugins such as Skype, Facebook, Twitter, etc.

My method to solve the problem was having a Siri website and database. Within our website we have each user who wants to connect to the server register for free and securely store his UDID information. This would first allow us to keep track of who is connected to our server prevent random iDevices fromconnecting. This means that we can start having information on our users that we can fetch. In order to solve our plugins problem I devised a solution in which we use Google calendar and reminders, online addressbook, online weather websites, etc. So if you wanted to make an event we would first ask you to submit information within your secure account on our website which we then use to connect to Google’s online calendar and post your event. That event would then sync to your iDevice through the calendar’s app and show up there. If you wanted to check the weather we would connect to an online weather database with the zip code you securely submitted and return you with data. This type of solution for Siri’s functions can be implemented easily, it will just take some time.

We are working on i4Siri everyday so please bear with us as we finish the product. When we finish, donators will be able to go to the server url and register an account with their PayPal transaction id.

LG & Verizon Set To Release Phones With VMWare

2012-01-09T11:57:00.001-08:00

Verizon again continues to get lucky when it comes to getting the good stuff. It’s no secret thatLG and VMWare have a unique partnership, but now they’ve revealed something that looks to be pretty special. LG showed it had a trick up its sleeve at CES. What would you say if you can use both your “work” phone and your “personal” phone on the same phone? Let me explain– VMWare has officially enabled the ability to run separate virtual Android OS machines on the same device. That means you can use your personal phone one minute, hit a button and then completely move to your work phone managed by your employer. Pretty neat isn’t it?

Verizon isn’t done either. The big news is that Big Red and Telfonica will be a launching a phone with the technology “in the coming months”. All of this means improved productivity for all— and soon.
