Apple iPhone 5 Starts New Phone Life

                  
A new source said that iPhone 5 will be launched at Apple headquarters in Cupertino, Calif. on Oct. 4th instead of initial place, the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. However, the reason for the change is unclear. And this may because that iPad and iPad2 were launched at the headquarters, along with all the versions of the iPhone to date.

On Saturday, the International Business Times reported that Verizon was selling the iPhone 4 for $120 through the end of the month, with clearing inventory in preparation for the new phone the likely reason for the sale. Furthermore, PC Magazine points out that Apple has blacked out vacation dates for its employees from Oct. 9-12 and from Oct. 14-15, thus another indication that the iPhone might be hitting stores around that time.

The new phone is expected to include an 8-megapixel camera, an A5 dual-core processor, mobile payment functions and perhaps the Qualcomm mobile phone chip. Furthermore, the phone will have a better display, more memory and a more durable battery life. A longs standby time will make iPhone 5 more popular than its previous versions, I think.
                  
AT&T and Verizon are the two wireless carriers that currently sell the iPhone, although there is a lot of speculation that Sprint will also join the fray this go-around. A recent report by Boy Genius says that Sprint is not allowing vacation time for employees between Sept.30 and Oct. 15 due to the release of the iPhone 5. T-Mobile's Chief Marketing Officer Cole Brodman said that company isn't getting the iPhone anytime this year, PC Magazine reports. Of course, if the AT&T and T-Mobile merger ends up going through, then the iPhone will be sold through the company.

Eye-Catching Concept Gadget Design Electronics

Nowadays our life is filled with various kinds of electronics. From useful household appliances to cells phones in the pocket, we seem unable to live without these gadgets. We are not satisfied with those electronics that exist in real, some innovative concept gadget designs are really cool and mind blowing. Even though we cannot see them in reality within a couple of years, they may finally become reality in the future. Take a look at these mind blowing concept gadget designs now!!!


1. Swatch “Infinity” Concept Watch
This watch is like no other that you have seen before. It is a concept watch design presented by Swatch under the name “Infinity” and features video, mp3 music and photo sharing. The concept is not too idealist considering we have seen the LG Phone Watch already.

2. Nokia Aeon Concept


The Nokia Aeon Concept Design features the full-surface touch technology. Means that the whole phone is just a piece of glass operated by hand gestures and motions. Plus it senses the environment and changes its look accordingly.

3. Napkin PC
This is another one of those concept gadget designs that won’t enter the real world unless some sort of breakthrough or miracle happens. Perhaps in the future computers will be cheaper than napkins and when such a time arrives we will have the napkin PCs.

4. Vista Fridge Magnet Concept


Have you ever used fridget magnets? Of course! they are those little useless piece of magnets used as placeholders for sticky notes and other useless stuff. Well things have changed now with the Vista Fridget Magnet Concept as it will allow you to watch movies, listen to music, keep notes right on your desk fridget-top.

5. Nokia 888 Social Phone Concept

Well, phones are already meant to help you socialize and interact with humans but what if if your phone was flexible enough to be a part of your daily routine and activities? Nokia 888 does the same for you. This bracelet-like concept phone will take any form depending upon your mood and flavor. It will notify you about your dates and important events and will be there for you whenever you want it.

6. iRing

iRing is for the iPod fans and addicts who just can’t do anything without listening to music on their iPod. The ring is just like a normal ring that you can wear on any one of your fingers. Through bluetooth connectivity, the ring will allow you to control music playback and volume on your iPod wirelessly.

7. P-Per Concept Mobile

It is definitely here to beat the iPhone. The P-Per Concept Mobile is idealized on a 4-layer structure where everything is about “touch” and “execute”. Its form factor and style is what blows my mind away. Also, it has support for Wi-Fi and live video feeds.

Creative PC&MIDI Keyboard

With this creative multimedia Creative Prodikeys DM PC keyboard, you can enjoy more interesting internet life. You can easily convert the keyboard into a "Sampler" with the included customizable software. A Sampler is a piece of audio equipment, wherein you can mix multiple sounds together. It is generally used by music directors to make a rough sample of the background score. Samplers are generally very expensive - the good ones cost in lakhs. With its Prodikeys DM, Creative hopes to provide a cheaper alternative for aspiring music directors.

Creative Prodikeys DM is a standard PC keyboard and MIDI keyboard rolled into one device. The MIDI keys are perfectly concealed below the palm rest and only when you remove the palm rest, they become accessible. The keyboard does feel a little bit bulky, but is still compact enough to fit perfectly atop any desktop. You can switch between Standard Keyboard mode and Music Mode by the press of a music button, located on the left side of the keyboard. Just above the music button is a scroll-type volume button. The multimedia keys have been neatly placed above the function keys.

I had my doubts regarding the ergonomics of the keyboard - considering the bulkiness of the product. The Prodikeys DM is ergonomically designed for working comfortably. The palm rest has been designed very nicely. The keys are not so soft, when compared to products from Microsoft and Logitech. Another thing that surprised me is that the keyboard plugs into a PS2 port, and yet supports so many functions. You need to install the drivers and the software bundled along with it, in order to work. Also one has to make sure to remove the driver when you switch to another keyboard, or else the latter will refuse to work. The Creative Prodikeys DM is available in two colors; Black and Biege.

Cool Transparent Computers

If you are tired of common notebook computers, tablet computers or ultra-light weight computers, you can take a transparent computer home now! Is it possible to get a transparent computer? Yes!! Samsung have already launched a cool transparent laptop at 2010 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.

The Samsung Mobile Display’s prototype 14-inch notebook is billed as the world’s first and largest transparent OLED prototype. The screen is 40% transparent, which as the image from Engadget above shows, allows you to see your hand through the screen.


The transparent computer is very cool, but why would anyone want a transparent laptop to begin with? What possible use case is there for a transparent laptop screen? Sure, you might think augmented reality, but this is a laptop, not a mobile phone. You’re hardly going to wander around pointing your laptop at things for some augmented reality goodness, and anything a transparent screen can do could easily be replicated by an outward facing camera on the rear anyway. Comparing with common commuter, a transparent computer will immediately make you the center of focus. It is very impressive, isn’t it?

Check out Your Laptop Battery Capacity

The laptop battery pack is made of outer shell, circuit board and battery cells. Now most of laptop battery cells are lithium-ion cells, and MAH indicates the capacity of laptop battery. The standby time of a laptop battery is mainly decided by MAH. In general case, the higher the number of battery cells, the bigger numerical value of MAH and the longer standby time. The battery life is decided by charge and discharge times. A qualified laptop battery is durable and rechargeable about 500-600 times before needing to be replaced. So a laptop battery normally has a 2-year service life. When the time comes to the replacement, your battery’s standby time will decrease dramatically, and this impacts the portability of your notebook computer.

If you can choose a high-capacity battery for your laptop, then you can always enjoy longer standby time before it needs to be replaced. How to check out the capacity of your laptop battery? Why a 4-cell laptop battery has a different specification of 14.8V/2200mAh or 7.4V/4400mAh? Now you can calculate the ‘real’ capacity of a battery pack with the below way.

Regularly, one laptop battery cell has a voltage of 3.7V and amperage of 2200MA. Physics has a formula, W(The Watt)=V(Voltage)×A(Amperage). MWH means your battery pack’s amount of amperage of output current in an hour. 

So you can calculate one battery cell has a capacity of 3.7V×2200mAh=8.14mWh. 
A 3-cell battery pack has a capacity of 8.14mWh×3=24.42mWh; 
A 4-cell battery pack has a capacity of 8.14mWh×4=32.56mWh; 
A 6-cell battery pack has a capacity of 8.14 mWh×6=48.84mWh; 
A 9-cell battery pack has a capacity of 8.14 mWh×9=73.26mWh. 

MWH can indicate a more accurate battery capacity than MAH. Calculate your desired laptop battery before the purchase.
