This past week Google’s developer’s conference was one of the first demos of the Android mobile phone operating system.  Announced last year by the Open Handset Alliance, a group of mobile phone manufacturers and software houses who want to have one unilateral platform for all mobile phones to run on Android looks to be one of the most interesting revolutions in the Mobile phones market.

Being developed by Google the phones are highly likely to blend well with other Google-ware like the popular Maps service and Google Mail service.  The stand out feature is that the operating system is being designed to run on a wide range of mobile phones regardless of their feature set.  In a similar way to how PC operating systems are made to work on a wide range of computers with varying specifications Android will take advantage of specific phone features such as built in GPS and touch screen interfaces.

This past week had the operating system running on a touch screen unnamed handset and it was sporting a number of new features since it was last shown off earlier in the year.  One exciting feature was how the handset was unlocked; the user had to draw a specific shape on the touch screen to unlock the keypad.  Another feature took advantage of the GPS function by having an on screen compass which had been tried on other handsets such as the GPS enabled S60 phones offered by Nokia but attendees said the example shown by Google seemed to work much more fluidly than other attempts.

The decision to show off the software at their developers conference was obviously to entice the collective minds into coming up with some ideas for possible applications for their operating system, with it being open-source software, a factor popular with the programming masses, it looks promising that any mobile phones sporting Android’s operating system would have a lot to offer the stale mobile phones market.

Obviously a lot of comparisons were made between the software and Apple’s stand out mobile phone the iPhone, the interface seemed to bear some of the Apple hallmarks such as saving Youtube links as icons on the main screen and a touch based interface.

The Android operating system is currently nearing completion with handset manufacturers Motorola, HTC and Samsung all volunteering to use Android on their forth-coming mobile phones in the next year.

Recently announced, and due to be released in October, the LG KC910 Renoir promises to set the world alight, since… well… the world of camera-equipped mobile phones just got a new messiah!

A rich heritage – the LG Viewty

In 2007, a handset came out that shocked everyone involved with mobile phones. We all kind of knew it would do well, but we didn’t expect it to do as well as it did. That phone was the LG Viewty, and it offered the most amazing camera, and the most wow-factor, of any mobile phones on the market at that time. Everyone predicted people would warm to it, because this beauty from LG was just so… well, different to other mobile phones on the market. A full touchscreen interface, a 5 megapixel camera (a rarity in them days), and masses upon masses of cool stuff. But what really made the public pick it up and run with it was its outright, sheer, unadulterated wow factor. It just OOZED cool, and people went for it in a big way. The thing that surprised (and is still surprising us), is that, believe it or not, if you look at the current list of top-ten mobile phones, the year-old Viewty is still in it!

But it won’t last forever, and it’s time for the LG Viewty to hand on the baton. It needs a special mobile phone to pass it on to, and that’s what it gets in the LG KC910 Renoir.

Shattering the 8 megapixel barrier, with the LG KC910 Renoir.

You can clearly see the ancestry of the Viewty, when you look at the LG KC910 Renoir. The two mobile phones share similar sleek looks, and the Flash-based, touchscreen interface of the LG KC910 Renoir is a direct evolution of the Viewty’s. Both mobile phones have loads of multimedia options, both have a system optimised for touch control, but the newer LG KC910 Renoir takes on a new camera. And, oh dear lord, what a camera it is, weighing in at an unbelievable 8 megapixels! So, it’s going to sharper and crisper than anything you’ve ever see before, but the fun doesn’t end there. As it is easily one of the highest spec mobile phones in the world, the LG KC910 Renoir also has more features than, for example, NASA and more power than a small South American country. Night modes, xenon flash, manual focus, and the piece de resistance, the slow-mo video from the Viewty, and the high-speed, time-lapse video from the LG Secret. The LG KC910 Renoir also has the features that are becoming commonplace among modern mobile phones: WiFi, HSDPA, GPS and so on.

Can the LG KC910 Renoir really live up to the legacy of the Viewty?

It’s a lot to ask of it, really, isn’t it… The Viewty is still a big seller even now, a year after its launch, and it’s easily the most successful mobile phone LG have ever made. So, the LG KC910 Renoir really does have a lot to live up to. The crucial question is, can it do it? Well, it’s certainly got the edge over all the other mobile phones that are due out before Christmas. ok, sure, there are some other 8 megapixel mobile phones due out, but none of them are as slim as the LG KC910 Renoir, and none of the others have a touchscreen. Or slow-motion video. Or those sleek looks. And knowing LG, they’ll probably make sure the price of the LG KC910 Renoir isn’t too over the top, as they did with the Viewty, to make it even more appealing. It remains to be seen whether it can grab the same success, and attract the same love, as that groundbreaker, but one thing’s for sure: the LG KC910 Renoir has got the potential to kick its rivals in the world of mobile phones right out of the park!

It is already known that the Nokia N78 is one high- class multimedia mobile phone. Naturally, it has lots of features in it. Any user would not lack for the diversity this mobile phone can offer. Moreover, consumers would really get a kick out of this year’s line up of cellular phones from Nokia, particularly with the N- series. This is because there are so many new things about the mobile phones plus a lot of features and functions are highly improved. Since the N78 is part of that, it is not surprising that it too offers many wonderful features. It is a mobile phone that allows you to say you are proud of owning it!

One notable feature of many of the N- series mobile phones is the navigation functions. The Nokia N78 has an A- GPS, making things a lot better! A- GPS means Assisted Global Positioning System. Now, you can count on the N78 to give you reliable positions even if signal conditions are poor. Added to that is the free Nokia Maps which are more than enough to fulfill your navigation needs! This handset also has HSPDA 3G high- speed connectivity and WLAN. Not only will you be able to find your way around with the help of the N78, you can even download more info about places and other points of interests!

It even has an integrated FM transmitter plus it supports microSD, which can be up to 8GB! Get a Nokia N78 as soon as it is available, you would not regret it!

Camera phones have been getting steadily more and more powerful, as time has moved on. But which is the best one currently on the market? Let’s find out!

Sony Ericsson Satio

There’s no doubting the sheer power of the Sony Ericsson Satio. First and foremost on its list of awesome features is its key selling point: the Sony Ericsson Satio is the first phone announced for the UK to have a 12 megapixel camera. It also features technology culled from the Cyber-Shot range of phones, so, quite simply, the Sony Ericsson Satio is the single best camera phone in existence. However, it also has true smartphone credentials, as it features the new Symbian S60 Touch OS, giving it a sleek interface, bags of power, and the option to add on loads of third party software. It is, frankly, an astounding phone!

Samsung Pixon 12

Here we have another touchscreen mobile phone, the Samsung Pixon 12, and, to be brutally honest… because it’s not a smartphone, it doesn’t come off as well as the Sony Ericsson Satio. However, it has a huge touchscreen, a brilliant 8 megapixel camera, multimedia player, HSDPA, and GPS. Oh, and since this is one of the biggest buying factors nowadays, the Samsung Pixon 12 is ALSO one of the best looking mobile phones on the market. However, unlike the Satio, the Samsung Pixon 12 very definitely isn’t a smartphone, so the Sony Ericsson Satio wins this fight.

Samsung i8910 HD

The Samsung Pixon 12 is undoubtedly a superb camera phone, but it’s not a smartphone. So, of the first two on this list, the Sony Ericsson Satio takes the crown for being the most powerful. The Samsung i8910 HD, though, has one big advantage over the other two (despite having a less impressive stills camera). Whilst it has an 8 megapixel camera, the Samsung i8910 HD is also the first phone to record true 720p HD video. Never before has a phone been able to capture video at that massive high resolution, and coincidentally (or is it coincidence? Maybe not…), the Samsung i8910 HD captures high-def video at the exact quality that Youtube display high-def videos at. It’s very possible that the Samsung i8910 HD was designed with its main feature being the ability to get yourself on Youtube, in high-definition. Combine that with the sumptuous 3.7 inch screen, and a huge 8Gb of internal memory, and it’s very clear that the Samsung i8910 HD, just like the other two on this list, deserves its place as one of the phones of the year!

Over the past 25 years, we have seen vast improvements in the technology that surrounds us. Many people take what we have available to us for granted, for example when was the last time you got up from your sofa to change the TV channel?

One of the most useful applications of technology is communication, gone are the days of attaching your message to a carrier pigeon. Now we have E-mail, Fax, Instant Messaging, Social networking and of course, the Mobile Phone.

As your reading this it is likely there is at least 1 mobile phone within 10 metres of where you are sitting, you have probably used one today as well. In fact in several countries there are more mobile phones than people including the UK

Today I am going to show you how mobile phones have evolved

The 80s The first generation

Often referred to as the decade of greed reflecting the economic and social climate in the UK and USA. However the 1980s are also considered to be the transition between the industrial and information ages.

Motorola DynaTAC

The first commercially available handheld mobile phone was the Motorola DynaTAC which was approved in 1983.

Weighing in at an outstanding 794 grams and measuring 10 inches tall, the DynaTAC was a true trooper. It had the standard 12 button layout we see on todays mobile phones along with 9 additional keys-

Rcl (Recall), Clr (Clear), Snd (Send), Sto (Store), Fcn (Function), End (End), Pwr (Power), Lock (Lock), Vol (Volume)

Motorola have announced that they will release a 21st anniversary edition of the phone built to the original specification with modern day components.

It did have one advantage though, if someone tried to mug you, you could club them over the head with it and make your get away.

Nokia 100

The first handset from Nokias Original series of handsets was designed especially for the growing consumer market. From the ground up it was designed to be easy to use by mobile phone virgins, a concept that Nokia is renowned for worldwide.

Nokias market research at the time revealed buyers were purchasing handsets for security reasons. Based on this 3 special keys were integrated, the first a red number 9 that was programmed to dial emergency services. The second was represented by an envelope to call voice mail systems and the third could be programmed to user preference.

The handset weighed a mere 340 grams and also included the keyguard system which protected against calls being made accidentally.

The 90s The Second Generation

The 90s marked the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the cold war; it also marked the dot com boom and rise of the internet. Economic growth sat hand in hand with technological development.

Motorola StarTAC

This was the first phone to appear in the flip format. Its generally agreed this was inspired by the original Star Trek communicator; The phone was released in January 1996 and in 2005 PC World Magazine ranked it at number 6 in The 50 Greatest Gadgets Of The Past 50 Years

It was also the first phone to feature the vibrating alert feature dubbed Vibracall, at the time only Motorola handsets could make use of this feature as they held the patent. Back in the day it was also considered the smallest (94 mm x 55 mm x 19 mm) and lightest (94 grams) mobile phone available, it even made cameo appearances in films such as 8mm staring Nicolas Cage.

Nokia 5110

The Nokia 5110 was released to the public in 1998 and very quickly became the most popular mobile phone in the world. It was rugged, had excellent battery life and of course was one of the first phones to feature the game snake.

One of the main features that set the Nokia 5110 apart from the competition was Nokias Express on fascias. For the first time users could customise exactly how their phone looked, people could create custom fascias for their mobile phones allowing them to stand out from the crowd.

Siemens S10

The Siemens S10 was the first to feature a colour screen; it marked a revolution in mobile phone history. It was released to the general public in 1998 and to celebrate/show off their achievement, Siemens included an Easter egg to display a Palm Tree Image.

Although this was the first mobile phone to feature a colour screen, demand for the handset was fairly low. The colours looked washed out and the screens suffered from vertical ghosting. A feature I quite like about the phone, is the ability to assign a colour to a contact in your phonebook, similar to how you can assign colours to files on modern day apple macs.

Nokia 3210

The Nokia 3210 was a massively popular handset, initially launched in 1999. It had a winning combination of cutting edge features. It was the first mobile phone to have an internal antenna and unlike the Nokia 5110, you could replace both the front and back covers of the phone.

For the first time in the mobile phone industry an advertising campaign was launched for the handset aimed predominantly at young people. The inclusion of 3 games, changeable fascias, customisable ringtones and aggressive pricing led to the handsets huge popularity with those aged 15-25.

The 2000s Third Generation

The start of 2000 went down in history with the worlds biggest excuse to get drunk, the new millennium. The 2000s have sparked escalation of social issues from the 90s such as healthcare, human rights, gender equality, homosexuality, body image and terrorism. But what has it done for technology?

Samsung SGH-M100

2000 was the year that re-defined digital convergence, combining multiple devices into one in the name of convenience. Samsung had created an award winning combination of a mobile phone with an integrated MP3 Player.

It had 32MB of integrated memory, and connected to your PC with a parallel interface. Included with the handset was an inline remote allowing complete control of your music, there was also a headset included that doubled up as a personal handsfree.

J-SH04 Sharp

The first commercially available camera phone was released to the Asian market in 2000. The phone boasted a 110,000 pixel camera using an integrated CCD sensor and a glorious 256 colour screen to display your captured moments.

There was also a miniature mobile colour printer available so you could make hard copies of your photos. Its generally thought that the camera phone and mobile printer was inspired by the Purikura photo booths that could be found scattered around Tokyo at the time.

Ericsson T68

Released in time for Christmas 2001, the T68 had the strongest set of features ever seen on a mobile phone and managed to do so in style while remaining lightweight and compact (100 mm x 48 mm x 20 mm 84 grams).

Although not the first phone to feature Bluetooth (this was the Ericsson T36 in 2000) it was the first that penetrated the market and became widespread. It also featured Infrared, GPRS, TriBand, WAP, SMS, Predictive Text, EMS, WAP, Colour screen, Customisable ring tones, Custom wallpapers, Screensavers and a Photo phonebook. This phone set the standards for those to come.

Motorola V3/RAZR

This handset had the power to make the world spin the opposite direction on it axis. It was released into the wild in 2004, and possibly one of the most distinct handsets of all time due to its looks and size. It was initially considered as an exclusive fashion phone.

Like its great granddad the Motorola StarTAC, the V3 managed to make it into PCworlds The 50 Greatest Gadgets Of The Past 50 Years at the number 12 spot.

The handset was just 13mm thick (53 mm x 98 mm x 13 mm) and weighed just 99 grams. In less than a year of its release it was reported that the RAZR V3 was the most popular clamshell handset available, and by July 2006 Motorola had shipped 50 million units.

Nokia N95

The N95 does it all. Gone are the days of carrying a mobile phone, An MP3 Player, A GPS unit in your car, A PDA/Laptop, A video camera or a digital camera. One single device than can do it all was released to the public in March 2007.

The handset packs a 5 megapixel camera with carl zeiss optics, Video recording at 640×480, WiFi, Quad Band, Integrated GPS and an MP3 player. Even though by todays standards it is considered heavy at 120 grams and quite large in size (99×53x20 mm) the handset shot to the number one spot in its first week of release. This was mainly due to the huge amount of anticipation for the handset.

After that, people are left wondering what is next? Is it possible to make a mobile phone any better than this? The answer is yes, and the answer begins with A.

The Future – Fourth Generation

Apple iPhone

Apple are notorious for the way they market their products, they have built up hype over months if not years for this product. They are very secret with what they do, and the public piece patents together to work out Apples new product. In fact, over 200 patents are related to the technology behind the iPhone.

The iPhones features include those of a camera phone, a multimedia player, mobile phone and internet services such as web browsing and E-mail. All of this is controlled by a massive 3.5 inch touchscreen interface. It is available with 8GB or 16GB of storage and apple are trying to capture 1% of the entire mobile phone market within its first year of launch, thats 10 million units.

Already Apple are to release a revised model of the Apple iPhone, the iPhone 3G, currently penned for release mid July. It includes new features such as 3G data transmission and built in GPS allowing you to literally find the nearest hotel, train station, pub no matter where you are.

Mobile manufacturer Nokia have just announced a new addition to their constantly growing range of mobile phones – the ‘new’ 6650. I say ‘new’ because Nokia, for some strange reason seem to be recycling old handset numbers again, there was a Nokia 6650 back in 2003 which was quite frankly a horrible looking phone, but it was Nokia’s first attempt at making a 3G phone. Thankfully this Nokia 6650 is a nice looking flip phone – quite a rarity from Nokia who usually concentrate on standard or slide phones. It does, however, bear more than a passing resemblance to the Motorola range of flip phones, but we will forgive it for this!

The Nokia 6650 does have great features and is sure to be quite a winner in the popularity stakes. It is a 3G mobile with HSDPA – so download speeds of up to 3.6 Mbps are achievable. It also has GPS with added Assisted GPS, and so should suit the drivers among you. You are also looking at a 2 megapixel camera with flash (it would have been nice if it had been at least 3 megapixel really), MP3 player, FM radio Bluetooth and microSD card slot. The Nokia 6650 is also rumoured to run off Symbian OS, S60 3rd edition UI.

The Nokia 6650 is only going to be available on the T-Mobile network so fans on different networks may want to look at switching from their current provider to T-Mobile when the Nokia 6650 is released in June 2008.

Blue Tooth GPS devices are becoming more common these days as many people realize that they are a great technological combination with many practical applications. It is common today to find that almost every mobile phone comes with GPS. Before getting to know how such systems can benefit our lives, we should know more about the device and its benefits.

Blue Tooth was first invented by Ericsson, before it was generally accepted by other companies. It provides a way to connect and exchange information between personal devices such as mobile phones, laptops, PCs and PDAs over a secure, globally unlicensed short-range radio frequency. Even the new Nintendo Wii system also uses the technology.

Generally, it is a standard and communications protocol primarily designed for devices that require low power consumption and short range communication. These features enable Blue Tooth devices to be power efficient. Since it is a wireless technology, it allows devices to exchange information with each other without the need for messy and unwieldy wires.

It works in a way such that it allows other devices to transfer information with each other when they are in a specific range. The receiving power must be high enough in order for the exchange of information to take place. A Blue Tooth device can connect with another device only when it is within a range of 10 meters.

Basically, as long as devices have Blue Tooth technology installed in them, they do not have to be separately made compatible. For example, a Toshiba gadget with Blue Tooth can exchange information with a Sony gadget that has the technology built-in.

Now, GPS can also be integrated with Blue Tooth to create Blue Tooth GPS devices. Blue Tooth GPS allows users to communicate and share the correct information regarding their location of other location-specific information. Users can make use of the tracker systems to find their way should they get lost anywhere. This device is particularly useful for search parties, trekkers, mountaineers or other people who like outdoor activities.

With the combination of Blue Tooth and GPS, this technology is very useful for people who need to find their way, and also can help others if they meet with any unforeseen circumstances.

Blue Tooth GPS Receivers Have Many Applications

Blue Tooth GPS receivers are a by-product of the great combination of two interesting technologies. Devices with such receivers have recently become more popular and newer models are being introduced at a greater pace than before as users become more familiar with them. There are more people who can vouch for the usefulness of such receivers for various types of tasks. For the uninitiated, it might be a little challenging to select a suitable Blue Tooth GPS receiver. Fortunately, a lot of information is available on the Internet. You can do your research and due diligence before you purchase a receiver for yourself. You can either get information regarding specific models or comparisons between various models with information regarding functions, features and prices.

There are many different models of Blue Tooth GPS receivers. Listed below are some of the more popular models.

1) HAiCOM Bluetooth Slipper

This receiver is setup easily with a couple of buttons. This receiver allows you to receive satellite signals and send information to your portable PC devices without any wires. However if you are out hiking, you just have to attach it to your belt loop and if you are in the car, just set the receiver onto the back of the car and you can be assured that you can get good quality signals.

What is good about this receiver is that if there is problem with the power, the solar panel can be activated to provide additional power. The normal running time for this model is about 8 to 14 hours but with the solar panel, you are able to get an extra 12 hours only if you have adequate sunlight shining on it. What’s more, you can get the model for just under $50.

2) AVL Blue Tooth GPS Receiver

This model is very suitable for the urban jungle. It is able to scan 16 GPS channels simultaneously for up to 20 hours of normal use. It also contains a rechargeable battery system.

3) Globalsat BE-328 Blue Tooth GPS Receiver

This receiver is very popular as it has the best value for its price. It is universally compatible with any Bluetooth compliant serial interface and has a long battery life of 16 hours of continuous use. This device works as long it is within the range of 10 meters with another Bluetooth device. However, if it does not detect another Bluetooth device within 10 minutes, it will power down automatically thus saving your battery life. The conserved energy can be used to connect when there is a suitable Blue Tooth device nearby. In addition, you can have all the above functions in a Blue Tooth GPS receiver at an average price of about $100. Now that is great value for mone
