Daily Tech: 24 June 2010

I guess everyone is sick of iPhone 4 and iOS 4 stories. Anyway, there are several sources saying that the upcoming Nokia N8 will be the last Nseries phone running Symbian OS. Next Nseries phone will be running MeeGo OS. Symbian lovers can still get their doze of Symbian on the Nokia Xseries phone.

Unless you are from another universe, you should have heard by now that the iPhone 4 is coming. It will be launched in the US on 24 June 2010. Singaporeans need not worry, we are in the 2nd wave of the iPhone 4 release. iPhone 4 is expected to invade the little red dot somewhere in July. We are still not sure if this is going to be exclusive to 1 telco or available to all 3.

By the way, isn’t iPad coming to Singapore in July too? Oh my…. it’s going to be an Apple-ish month.

Apple announced that they have sold 1 million iPads within the first month. That is pretty impressive. And for those who are waiting for iPad to come to Singapore, you will be glad to know that it will be here sometime in July. So start saving.

After weeks of speculations, it is finally announced that HP is acquiring Palm. That came as a huge surprise. Everyone was expecting (and praying) that HTC will be the one who acquire Palm. Or Lenovo, Dell or even Huawei. Nobody expected HP. Personally, I don’t know if Palm is saved now. I hope Palm don’t end up like another Compaq.

On other news, Google is bringing Android free turn by turn navigation to UK. iPhone most likely not getting any free turn by turn. See! That’s what you get for trying to sue Google’s friend.

Daily Tech: 21 Apr 2010

It seems like an Apple employee lost the new, unreleased iPhone in a pub. Someone picked it up and sold it to Gizmodo. There is hardly any doubts that its a fake now as Apple has written to Gizmodo requesting the phone back. But I’m not sure if Gizmodo will still be invited to any Apple event in the future. We’ll see.

Personally, I think it’s the real iPhone. But it is most likely a Prototype with rough edges. I don’t think Apple will ship a device with a seam/gap at the side. They would most likely use a single piece of metal. The hardware would most likely be the same. The look will most likely be improved. We will know the answer on 22 June when Apple is rumored to be releasing the new iPhone.

Oh, and if that iPhone is for real, then I guess all Telcos should start stocking up on MicroSIM card. Else we will all need to cut our existing SIM card down to MicroSIM size. Damn, I hate this MicroSIM thing.

Apple has began selling their iPad Tablet over the weekend in US. And it’s nothing but tablet talk this week in the tech world. Some analyst estimate that Apple sold 600,00 to 700,000 over the weekend, resulting in several news agencies and website to use that figure without verification. Apple later clarify that they sold more than 300,000 iPad on Saturday (including Pre-Orders). Now, that is a more likely figure.

And in case you are interested, The JooJoo had a pre-order of 90 units and 15 cancellation. (Figure correct up to 11 February 2010)

It’s another one of those slow tech news week. In fact, it is so slow that there is only 1 news this week. And it only appears yesterday. Geekdaily reports that there were only 90 preorders for the JooJoo tablets and 15 of them had cancelled the order.

Check out Geekdaily for the latest update regarding the JooJoo sales.

It’s Google.cn no more. Starting 23 March, all traffic to Google.cn has been routed to Google.com.hk. Perhaps a minute of silence?

But Google is still maintaining it’s office in China for other Google products like Android. Gmail is still available in China. (Thankfully) Anyway, I’m sure the geeks knows how to get pass the great firewall of china easily.

It’s Mobile World Congress! Lots of new phones being announced while we are busy celebrating Lunar New Year. Perhaps the biggest announcement is the announcement of Windows Phone 7 Series. Looks pretty promising. Hey! There is no more Start button.

Besides MWC2010, Google launched Google Buzz which is something like Twitter and Facebook Status. Lots of users complaint about privacy issues which prompted Google to apologise and make it easier for users to edit their privacy settings.

Oh, if you are using foursquare with Twitter updates, you might want to think again.

Nokia shocked the tech world by announcing that they will be giving away free turn by turn navigation on all Nokia GPS devices. So far, only 10 devices are supported but Nokia spokesperson said more will come in the next few weeks. I’ve tried it out on a Nokia N97 Mini and it works great.

If you are still holding shares to Garmin or TomTom, this might be a good time to sell them.

On other news, Steve Jobs will be on stage tonight 2am Singapore time. Rumors says a Tablet is on the way.

Everyone is talking about Google pulling out of China. Google claims that it’s infrastructure, together with 20 other companies, were under cyberattack by China. This made them decided to stop censoring search results in China. As a result, China blocked Google website and it is no longer accessible in China.

Somehow I feel that their might be more things happening in the background that we are unaware of. Let’s wait and see.
