Like Telus November 21st, Motorola Motokey Social set to
Posted by thumpad.com in Mobile phones, Portable device. on December 7, 2011
We've seen the official product page of the Motokey Social, a new Facebook Phone with the special blue button, and we knew it was heading to Telus. All we needed to seal the deal was the date, and now we have it: the Motokey Social and Telus will change their status to “In a Relationship” on November 21st, and you can take part of the festivities. It's no Android, of course, but it offers as 3MP camera, 2.4-inch QVGA (320 x 240) touchscreen display, five home screen panels, social n……

What makes the new NAND unique is its p……

LG Nitro HD review
Posted by thumpad.com in launching, Portable device. on December 7, 2011
And then there were three. AT&T's lonesome LTE duo — the Samsung GS II Skyrocket and HTC Vivid — just gained a new member with the recent launch of LG's Nitro HD. You may recognize this particular handset from its former life as the Optimus LTE, except here the phone's been rebranded with a moniker that more astutely conveys its blazing 4G purpose. There may be tough times ahead for the handset, considering the current crop of high-end devices hogging the spotlight. But if t……

smartphone-only portfolio in 2012 Sony Ericsson Q3 results: 0 profit
Posted by thumpad.com in Mobile phones, Portable device. on October 14, 2011
Sony Ericsson is still walking the line of profitability and has crossed it a few times in the last few quarters. The third quarter of 2011 saw a decrease in most of the major stats year-over-year (YoY), but the company did perform better than it did in Q2.
The most interesting figure of the press release is the net income – 0. Income before taxes was €31 million but none of that made it to the company's coffers. Still, the company seems to be recovering from the Japan earthquake which affected its……
190M Androids activated, Google Q3 profits beat estimates
Posted by thumpad.com in Mobile phones, Portable device. on October 14, 2011
Larry Page, who not so long ago took over as Google's CEO, handed in the company's Q3 financial results with a big smile on his face. Revenues were up 33% Year-on-Year (YoY) to $9.72 billion.
Of that cool 31% transferred into operating income ($3.06 billion) and 24% ($2.21 billion) went to advertisers. The same numbers for last year's Q3 were 35% ($2.55 billion) and 26% ($1.81 billion).
The number of paid clicks on Google's ads increased 28% YoY and 13% compared to the previous q……
to be announced October 19th Samsung Galaxy Nexus
Posted by thumpad.com in Mobile phones, Portable device. on October 14, 2011
We've all been aware of the continued partnership between Samsung and Google with regard to the birth of the third Googlephone, following on from the Samsung Nexus S, for some time now. The Nexus Prime or Galaxy Nexus as it has more recently been known, was set to take center-stage alongside the official launch of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, the latest edition of Google's mobile OS.
Unfortunatley, we encountered a slight snag as the Unpacked event at the CTIA conference in San Diego, intend……

Posted by thumpad.com in Mobile phones, Portable device. on October 14, 2011
T-Mobile USA is readying a replacement for the Samsung Exhibit 4G, which is barely a few months old. It's called the Exhibit II 4G and is a T-Mobile version of the Samsung Galaxy W (which we have previewed).
The Samsung Exhibit II 4G for T-Mobile drops the hardware home button and goes for four capacitive keys, but other than that it should bring the exact same package.
That includes a 3.7″ WVGA screen, 1.4GHz single-core CPU with 512MB RAM, Android 2.3 Gingerbread and a 5MP camera with 720p……

Nike MAG shoe future arrives Top Secret

The future finally arrived – at least for the much talked about Nike sneakers Marty McFly in the cult movie ‘Back to the Future Part II‘ had on his feet.
Since that movie has been released countless innovators and hackers attempted to bring these shoes back from the future.
According to a viral video showing lines after lines of illuminated, Nike Swoosh carrying MAG sneakers in what seems like a testing room at a factory, Nike themselves worked on the future of footwear, bringing the MA……
on the wearable solar power horizon SLIVER cells
Posted by thumpad.com in Fashion Gadgets, Portable device. on September 15, 2011
Researcher at the Australian National University developed what seems a new generation of thin, flexible solar panels called SLIVER Cell.
The SLIVER cells are not thicker than a sheet of paper of human hair, making them extremely light weight and flexible. For me the most interesting development is the ‘bifacial’ design meaning these wearable solar panels re able to catch and convert sun light on both sides of the sheet.
Potentially this means greater degree of energy efficiency when used in ……
we also get some specs, Support page for Samsung I9250 is up
Posted by thumpad.com in Data, Portable device., Services on September 8, 2011
The evidence that the Samsung I9250 is nearing its launch is becoming overwhelming – yesterday it was a leaked user agent profile and today brings us a dummy support page for the I9250.
The page is pretty much empty besides some FAQ and How-to entries that don't belong to the Samsung I9250 (one of them is for the Omnia 7, for example).
Anyway, the I9250 is supposed to be the next Nexus phone – the Nexus Prime. It will be the first device with the next generation Android – Ice Cream Sandwich,……

Just days after the Galaxy Note announcement, we meet another Note – only this time it's a member of the LG Optimus lineup. It's a QWERTY slider with 4-inch WVGA NOVA display and based on the Tergra 2 chipset with a 1.2GHz dual-core processor.
The rest of the specs we know so far include are 5 megapixel camera with HD video recording, a VGA front camera, 8GB internal storage, an HDMI port and Wi-Fi Direct support. The LG Optimus Note is reportedly, just 12.3mm thick, and is running on Android 2……
burns 500GB discs at the speed of a Blu-ray GE's new holographic storage
Posted by thumpad.com in Data, Latest, Portable device. on August 18, 2011
Holographic disc storage may not have worked out so well for InPhase, but the folks at General Electric are still trying to make HVD work. Their latest breakthrough, shown off today at an IEEE symposium in Hawaii, is a new micro-holographic material which is 100x more sensitive than its predecessor and ups recording speed to that of Blu-ray discs. In the two years since we saw it last some of the hyperbole has apparently been lost — no claims of “two to four years left for Blu-ray” this time……

The Nokia N9 is the first MeeGo handset to launch out of the Finish giant and the world seems to just can't get enough of it. And today we have some great news for you – despite Nokia's claims the N9 has FM radio receiver and an FM Transmitter in its premium-quality plastic body.

The Pulse Sensor is a plug-and-play ready component that hooks up to the Arduino platform which opens a ton of possibilities to incorporate biometric data into wearable electronic designs thanks to it’s very small form factor.
The creator of the Pulse Sensor, Joel Murphy and Yury Gitman, set up a Kickstarter account to get the necessary funding and move that great idea from prototype stage into mass produced, open source reality.
The Pulse Sensor works similar to a optical heart-rate pulse senso……

eardrum bursting Speaker Vest, Mind blowing
Posted by thumpad.com in Fashion Gadgets, Portable device. on July 8, 2011
The world of fashion design always welcomes the irrational, the provocative side of creativity unlike technology which loves to be strict, definable and playing along the rules and laws.
Where does this leaves us when we talk about wearable, fashionable technology? Maybe something like the Speaker Vest with 8″ Sub-woofer created by Joe Andolina a Software engineer by day, artist by night – according to his own words.

looking for investors – Smart glove
Posted by thumpad.com in Fashion Gadgets, Portable device. on June 29, 2011
Adding audio control and cell phone navigation to gloves is not an entirely new idea, we have seen many concept designs and a few commercial ski gloves from various brands over the past few years doing that. Even gloves that make phone calls came along but none of these products made a real dent in the techno glove market.
Based on that precondition entrepreneur Willie Blount picked up the glove control idea, gave it a careful thought of what might have been the problem in the past and came up with a bri……

already jailbroken, iOS 5 beta is barely out the closet
Posted by thumpad.com in Mobile phones, Portable device., Services, Software on June 11, 2011
The jailbreak was done using the LimeRa1n exploit, which is used from iOS4 up until 4.3.3. Still it's only a tethered jailbreak, meaning that each time you reboot your iDevice you'll need it hooked up to a computer to work the jailbreaking magic anew.
Naturally, people are hoping that an untethered jailbreak will be available for iOS 5 even before it launches in the fall. But it seems that Apple has removed the possibility of jailbreaking iOS 5 (the untethered way) by patching the current n……

Sure, solar-paneled bags are occasionally practical and always geeky, but the women in our lives wouldn't dream of letting us walk around with one, let alone using one themselves. That soon may change. The Solar Handbag from Diffus, a Danish design studio, integrates 100 “solar sequins” in a pattern that ladies may actually find socially acceptable, perhaps even attractive.

Lenovo still hasn't officially confirmed it, but all signs are pointing to an imminent US launch of its Android-based IdeaPad K1 tablet. It just hit the FCC under the “K1″ moniker earlier this month, and it's now gotten a full blown listing on Buy.com, complete with specs and some pictures that show off Lenovo's “custom-built Android interface.” Those specs include a 10.1-inch display, a Tegra 2 processor (not a Snapdragon as we had seen on the LePad), 32GB of storage, dual came……

tests only two of its five 3G bands, FCC dissects Nokia X7
Posted by thumpad.com in launching, Portable device., Services on May 17, 2011
Sometimes the FCC tears a phone apart and we look on with ghoulish delight. The victim this time was the Nokia X7, which sports AT&T compliant bands even though we last heard that AT&T has lost interest in the handset.
There were even leaked photos of the Nokia X7 sporting the AT&T badge, but the external photos of the X7 unit tested by the FCC had no carrier markings, just the Nokia logo.
It’s curious that the FCC only tested the 850/1900 bands – the Nokia X7 is a penta-band device that should ……
500 quid sim-free, HTC Sensation goes on pre-order in the UK

The HTC Sensation is the most anticipated droid coming from the Taiwanese company this summer. It's HTC's first dual-core handset and it set to launch in the end of June. UK online retailers are already accepting pre-orders for the Sensation and it will set you back 500 pounds. That's sim-free and unlocked, so it sounds reasonable and it's certainly on par with the Samsung Galaxy SII.

The last we’ve heard of Nokia’s MeeGo efforts, they said that there will be a device called N950, which will be out by the end of this year. Not a word since, we’re not even sure if the N9 and the N950 are the same device.
The Nokia N9 was tested for 850/1900 GSM/GPRS/EDGE bands with a note that outside the US the device can also use the ……
