Comaprision Chart

The Dust for Nexus One has now settled. Yesterday Google announced their New Super phone category phone "Nexus One". Thought there was nothing new in the Android press meeting apart from New Google Earth App and Voice commands in Mailboxes. As every one already saw the Unboxing video of Nexus One Weeks ago but google just officially launched it.
Its not yet there to beat Apple Iphone (this is what people say), but i personally feel that the craze for Iphone is slowly going down.
If it is not yet beating Apple Iphone, no worries its always getting closer to it.


Thanking Billshrink.com for this amazing comparison between some amazing Phones.
Apart from Market place I dont find Android lacking anywhere, and event like this small of yesterday will definitely encourage more Developers.
 Hope Android is the world we live in. Cheers...

Google Tablet: Google and HTC’s Next Project vs iSlate?

It appears Apple  is not the only company who is mauling their tablet for the people, there’s a rumor that Google and HTC – the tandem that will bring forth the Nexus Strike this Jan, is about to unleash their own tablet as well. The name is not yet disclosed, but whatever it’ll be called (G-tablet, Schmidt’s Pad etc – oups can’t help to give that premonition) alot of speculations are starting to develop with this purported tablet.

iSlate carryout two freshly baked patents that was said to surprise the users; Google Tablet on the other hand will have all the sauce of Chrome OS, Qualcomm processors and a dash of a new software from Adobe. (Mmm, what could that be? Am i sensing a new Air Product?)
According to Smarthouse “HTC, who have been working closely with Google for the past 18 months have several working models of a touch tablet including one model, is based on the new Google Chrome Operating System say sources.”

One is, will BIG G became the Big Jerk for its neighboring companies? – Remember Mototola Droid With just a short span of three months, the nexus one phone will reach its debut and it's ZOMG features is far better than that droid phone with the keyboard. Without a doubt this release  will kill the competition with the moto-droid not to mention the ‘pissed-off’ buyers who happens to be stucked on a 2 year contract with Veriz only to find out that there’s a better phone – Nexus One.
So much for the happy ending, indeed.

A new decade is fast-approaching – Six days from now and the world that we know will have its yet another phase in the course of history, hopefully towards the ‘brighter side’, ideally speaking that’s all what we want, don’t we? Thus, tech enthusiasts are already getting too delirious with what the industry has stored for them (same for the non techsavvy citizens too) Off the record, you can shout the company that you think will start the year with a new gizmo – Did I hear you say the big A as in Apple ? Well if that’s the case then your tech oriented intuitions are correct for Steve Jobs favorite ‘fruit’ will release a gadget on January 26, 2010.

This is not another Jesus Phone (as TC calls it), i mean iphone. Not a new iPod twin type (disappointingly) also this not about contacting an extra terrestrial being from. … bahh, this about a Tablet! Yep, A T-A-B-L-E-T guys. Could somebody call the clowns now, please? I can feel our readers are starting to get bored.

The size of this ‘very soon’ tablet will be 7-inch (100% sure) Although there will be a 10incher follow-up rumored to be release on spring.
The concept of this tablet sounds mediocre: Try to think about the iPhone make it 7-inch and voila we got the new apple tablet.

A tablet with a multi-touch feature: It may sound new to the tablet industry, but for the users? Of course this is expected. It wouldn’t be the image and likeness of the iPhone without a multitouch feat, wouldn’t it? The funny thing though is how appleinsider manage to salvage this comment:apple tablet
One current senior employee at Apple would only say that Jobs is “extremely happy with the new tablet.” Someone else who recently left Apple reportedly said that users will be “surprised how you interact with the new tablet.”
In my opinion, I think users will be extremely happy if they saw the new tablet with ‘minority report like interface’ infused with it.
minority report
And that’s why there’s a buzz that Apple had recently filed for two patents namely, Keystroke Tactility Arrangement on a Smooth Touch Surface: Ability of the system to detect the type of interaction you are playing with it. and Multipoint Touch Surface Controller: A more advance system for detecting multi points on a touch screen.
Did I say it will be unveiled on the 26th of January, 2010?

Now TC is cooking some theories again about the nameless Tablet, they have a strong belief that this one will be named as iSlate. Snap! okay first and foremost, if you’ll say that it sounds turd then worry not, there’s a lot of people who are with the same boat as you are. But for what it’s worth, the term 'slate' has been used in the Tablet industry. Which simply refers to as a tablet pc sans the keyboard and utilizes stylus/fingertips for the interaction.

Apple has acquired the domain name islate.com back in 2007.

Mr Robin of TC manages to play some tech-detective game of who’s the owner, tracing some link of the islate domain to the impending release of the new tablet today. Is it a coincidence? Well, iSay we just wait for 3 weeks to find out, it isn’t that long, is it?
