Android 3.0 Will Soon be Released

Android 3.0 alias Gingerbread has been the subject of conversation on the internet when Google  released the Android 2.2 Froyo aka middle of this year. The latest news, the latest version of the open source platform for smartphones will be released in the next few weeks before the end of this year.
Gingerbread touted brings new features to support richer services on smartphones . In fact, it could be the first version of the Android platform fully supports the characteristics of tablet computers in addition to the smartphone.

The rumors about Android 3.0 has repeatedly circulated. However, the first information leaked from the source of valid claims released Phandroid technology site. This information may give some idea of the platform. True or not will be evident when the Gingerbread launched later.

According to the report, citing sources within, Android 3.0 will support video chat via the front camera. This feature will compete with the Apple’s iPhone Facetime 4 and web conferencing services are increasingly a necessity in the future.

Android 3.0 is the possibility of using the display more attractive given the former head of design webOS Palm, Martias Duarte, joined the team at Google's Android developer since last May. In fact, chances are Google will ban a user interface designed by the handset vendors such as artificial UI Sense HTC, Raphael made by Sony Ericsson, and Motorola's Motoblur.

In addition, Google is likely to integrate various services in a separate application so that users would find it useful when they are not built in features. Separate applications also reduces operator dependence to always give updates to users.

Like Android 2.2, Gingerbread will use Dalvik JIT compiler to generate a faster processor performance. However, Gingerbread might be wasteful of resources with minimum hardware specification requirements 1 GHz processor, 512 MB RAM memory, and 3.5-inch screen.

Do You Want to Make a Call With Your iPod? Try This Apple Peel

Is it possible to make a call with your iPod? Of course the answer is no. But, look at this Apple Peel invented by Pan Lei and Pan Yong. This Chinese brothers successfully created a device to convert Apple's iPod Touch into an iPhone. They considered to be called as innovators, not copycats.
Their Apple Peel 520 is a case including a circuit board and battery that wraps around the iPod Touch media player. There a software that must be installed to allow the iPod plus Apple Peel 520 make calls. According to Pan Lei, his device, which requires breaking into Apple's operating system, isn't a counterfeit iPhone.
The iPod music player has sold more than 220 million units since it was first released in 2001, according to the company. Apple first released its iPhone in 2007, climbing to 2.7 per cent of the global market by June this year and sparking copycat models from Chinese grey market, or Shanzhai, vendors.
U.S. users can save at least $US770 by using the device to be priced at $US60. Jill Tan, a Hong Kong-based spokeswoman for Apple, said any product that's been tampered with won't receive warranty support. Apple is aware of Apple Peel, she said, declining to comment further.
Apple Peel sells for $US78 on Taobao.com, China's largest online shopping site. Yosion agreed to offer the device in the U.S. with New Orleans-based Go Solar USA, whose website teaches users to “jailbreak” the iPod Touch in preparation for installing Apple Peel software.

“We're also very creative,” Pan Lei said. “Not just getting a Nokia phone and copy, getting Apple and copy, or a Samsung phone to copy as well. It shouldn't be like that.”
