GDesk, iPhone theme for Symbian 5th Edition

Increase the collection of GDesk Themes: Today we announce a theme based on the interface of the iPhone. We can say that the theme is very basic, as happens on the phone to Apple (at least up to firmware 3), but very fast in its use.

Crazy Goblins: World War II, arriving in a beautiful third-person Shooter Game

TouchArcade shows the first images of what will be a new third-person shooter game., Diasponibile soon in the App Store. The game is called Crazy Goblins: World War II. The developers who are creating have indicated that the work is still being improved and that soon it will offer its first video-game.

Even in terms of graphics the game looks well built, although the certainty is given by the video that will follow in the coming days. The game should still be available for next month.

We will keep you informed on this new titoloo, showing the possible future Screenshots and videos will be released. For now, no information on the weapons, missions and purpose of the game. We look forward to.

Poll: Improve Android updates? And if they were paid?

It is useless to deny it, revealing a certain discontent common regardless of whether it is Samsung, HTC, Acer, Sony Ericsson and other manufacturers, with respect to the Android software updates.

On the one hand there are the manufacturers: to develop a product, create the hardware, optimized the Android software, and especially change the interface specific UI is definitely a job for a week. The times are much longer than one interface is more complex and diverse. Continuously updates released by Google certainly does not help to keep up and also all the manufacturers need to think about different phones and not to a single device at the same time.

There are other users: who spends 400/500 € for a phone you expect, with good reason, to receive a long-lasting support, a series of updates that improve the software features and a clear transparent and sincere on the part communications company. In addition, the customer expects to receive updates for distribution terminals that are not too old and can accommodate a "major update" with the hardware Inventory report. The customer expects spending 400/500 € a life cycle of the phone at least 18/24 months.

This unfortunately seems to happen and the reasons are many and as always linked to the economic factor.

But how could we find a meeting point between the interests of the houses and those of users?

Copy the way Apple could be a very clever solution by releasing the "major update" for a fee. This would mean that, if a phone comes out with Android 2.1, and is updated while keeping the same version, the update will be released without charge. If, however, after months, is updated to a higher version, say Android 2.2, this can be paid aggironameto (5 / 10 € for example).

In practice, if we take a Hero released in late September with Cupcake 1.5, this nine months after receiving the update 2.1. This update may be issued to pay, perhaps to 9 €. With this system, the houses could recover the money "spent on" development and might be encouraged to release the first update.

By applying this methodology in a larger scale, an update released Android 2.2 to a Hero maybe in November or December at an extra charge, increase the life of the phone and do not abandon to its fate after a few months.

An optical simplistic and does not take into account other factors, and perhaps more specific regulation, but, assuming remaining generalist.

Steve Jobs WWDC 2010 focused on the iPhone OS

In a little less than a month will see Apple’s most anticipated event: the presentation of new-generation iPhone. Together, the iPhone will be released the final version of the new firmware 4.0. During the WWDC, Apple will be rewarded by the best applications for iPhone and Mac, but this year’s Design Awards, or the award of the Application, will be exclusively dedicated to the iPhone OS, leaving the Mac

Many developers who create their own app for the Mac have felt saddened by this decision, to the point that Gansrigler Matthias, Flickery maker, has decided to send an email to Steve Jobs to know the reasons for this choice.

In the email, Matthias wonders why Apple has put aside the Design Awards for Mac developers and if there are hopes for the future.

Steve’s answer, strangely than usual argued:

We are focusing primarily (but not exclusively) on iPhone OS this year. Maybe next year we will focus mainly on Mac Just as is the normal cycle of things. No hidden meaning in everything.

Coming straight to the point, Steve admits that this year the work dedicated to the iPhone OS are really the most important. With the launch of the iPad and the imminent launch of the new iPhone, even within the resources of Cupertino are working on mainly two mobile devices.

So expect great things from this new OS for the time being only the third beta.

The anodized aluminum shell construction gives the phone an excellent and extremely light, so one wonders if the battery is already present or not.

The "middle way" between the iPhone and Macbook (so that the tablet was initially described in the Apple keynote in January) has been an enormous success, in both WiFi and 3G, as sales exceed one million devices!

But it seems that many of these users would prefer the iPad to the laptop, did not consider therefore essential tastira physics, a webcam, a removable battery, Flash Support, Multi-tasking (which still will), etc..! It even seems that the iPad has slowed sales of notebooks in early 2010!

* The games will actually be ported to OS X without wrapper or compatibility layer software like Cider
* The games will run in OpenGL
* Windows and Mac users play on the same server
* Release of the final version planned for May

Here is finally a nice video with a broad overview of the program.

"For the full update, we recommend using a Wi-Fi hotspots an unlimited data plan, otherwise it might apply."

Rumor of rumors that do not help users Hero.

Apple responds to statements made by Adobe regarding Flash for iPhone

Apple has responded to comments made in the recent announcement from Adobe, in which he declared that it will cease development of Flash for the iPhone.

Mike Chambers, principal product manager for Adobe Flash platform, said yesterday he was no longer interested in developing Flash for iPhone. According to Chambers to approve the policy of the Apple App Store is not correct. The goal of Apple is just to limit the developers, by imposing laws that establish the same company and that at any time can decide to change to your liking. In essence the policy is not appreciated Apple’s closed.

Here’s Apple’s answer.

After the statements by Mike Chambers just mentioned, Trudy Muller Apple spokesman said:

Someone left behind. HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, and H.264 are supported by the Phone and iPad and it is these that Apple promotes. Adobe Flash is closed and proprietary, while others are open and free.

Chapter closed and the definitive break between Adobe and Apple. In fact, as repeatedly stated by Steve Jobs, Apple will not ever implement Flash on their devices.

Some images have appeared on the network that show a Nexus One with some problems of painting at the bottom of the deck. It seems that the material which is coated with the part that covers the dock connector has problems of paint.

Carl Zeiss is celebrating 120 years in the production of lenses

Officially born November 17, 1846 in the small German city of Jena, a small idea of the name Carl Zeiss optics, the eponymous company celebrates 120 years in these days the construction of the first lens dedicated to photography.

Was in fact in 1890 when the now-businessman Carl decided to expand the horizons of the company, looking intently at that time seemed to be a world without a doubt the "Wonderland": photography.

This form of art, which from the beginning of 1800 had begun to take root in the Old World, Carl Zeiss convinced to invest time and money on building new camera lens and today, some 120 years later, we can safely say that there was a perfect fit.

The Zeiss lenses were mounted on machines that accompanied man in his first trip to the moon, in the following years the company was able to build very light lenses (f/0.7, f/0.85 ef/1.0), as Today also happens to have been used to record important art film.

Samsung Galaxy S is with Google?

The picture is quite clear and leaves no doubts about the apparently written "with Google," a sign that distinguishes all the Google Mobile Experience. There is no information at the time certain but if it is not a cover of "prototype" and then set to change, the written word could have very positive implications for the future owners of this terminal.

With the writing, Google should provide continuous updates of the system in coming months. Past experience, however, not certain bases. If we think of Magic HTC, Google Experience another terminal, we see how that has received the update Donut 1.6 last year but still has not been updated to version Eclair. Sign so that this "famous" written really does not warrant immediate updates of the system.

We’ll see if there will be news. Meanwhile, we announce another new video and pictures of the Samsung Galaxy S.

WiMax in Italy, Mandarin is already a reality and with the Nauta

These days you are taking the Nauta, the Boat Show 2010 which will end March 28. Among the many new features to navigate, one has caught our attention. Do not talk about boats, but Web browsing through Wi-Max technology offered by Mandarin, a partner at Nauta pemetterà 2010 that all connect to internet with broadband.

We have often spoken of Wi-Max, especially in recent days after the HTC EVO, top range Android’s first handset with this technology. But what exactly is this technology and what it offers?

WiMAX stands for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access, is the last frontier in terms of wireless data transmissions and is the standard that guarantees the best performance ever with regard to the broadband market.

Flexibility
The ease of installation and distribution make it the ideal technology for use not only in urban but also rural areas.

Security
Access to frequencies exclusively licensed WiMAX technology already makes it extremely safe. Add to this the implementation of various encryption techniques, authentication and security against intrusion.

Mobility
With 802.16e, WiMAX allows a connection with nomadic. Therefore guarantees within the network coverage, the ability to move with their WiMax equipment.

insights wikipedia.org / wiki / WiMAX

Given the lack of ADSL coverage in suburban areas, we hope that this technology may soon take hold to a greater extent.

We followed each other directly WiMax for years and unfortunately we can say that things are slow in our country. More than all the other countries had to wait for the Ministry of Defence to vacate the frequencies. It ‘was made then a notice to pay, and some major companies have been awarded frequencies.

After that nothing. Retelit as listed companies, which owns most of the frequencies for the North ‘s Italy and after over 2 years ago a television program in collaboration with CFN CNBC successful, has not yet presented anything concrete.

One of the most active companies was ariadsl, services advertised shortly and unfortunately not very widespread. We hope something concrete is done and that we can finally have real internet anywhere!
