Symbian 3 gets new design goes further than skin deep
March 10, 2010
Nokia has made it clear that it will revamp the user interface (UI) of its Symbian phones, and you might have seen the video above during Mobile World Congress. However, what's more interesting is that Nokia has removed a ton of legacy cipher and APIs, to form the clean break that was faraway overdue. We're getting closer to what was available on the N900 and some of the qualities are the same (the app switching UI is excellent), but the new UI is seemingly much faster and more fluid. With the new software architecture, comes new cipher that is not built to deal with last decade's problems such as lack of graphics hardware or horrible memory constraints.
The net conclusion should be much more responsive Nokia phones and interfaces. I'm glad that Nokia (and others) are seeing the light, considering Apple and Microsoft certain did too. Now, we're waiting for the actual hardware that we suspect might come out that summer at Nokia World.

EviGroup Paddle To Enter The Game
March 1, 2010
EviGroup launched the eviGroup Pad back in October, and now it has come back with an improved version, dubbed the Paddle. Powered a 1.6GHz Intel Atom processor, the most obvious improvement would be the inclusion of multi-touch, as well as inclusion of a SSD. Aside from that, other features include a new software layer called Scale, which will be running on top of Windows 7 and should help you organize and view your documents much better, as well as an optional Wi-Fi antenna. It should be available around April to June for 699 Euros, and should supply some stiff competition to the Archos 9.

Mitsubishi develops new upscaling algorithm
February 22, 2010
Mitsubishi has managed to work on a sort new upscaling algorithm and software which is capable of transforming full HD (1,920 x 1,080) resolution images into a 4K x 2K resolution image. Apparently, that wondrous technology plays nice with the new 1.4 HDMI connections and standards, but there is a downside to it - Mitsubishi still has trouble trying to compose the software compatible with the Blu-ray format. No notion on whether the completed technology will see action in Mitsubishi’s range of projectors, HDTVs or both down the road though.

Apple updates Apple TV to version 3.0.2
February 11, 2010
Looks like Apple has updated their Apple TV to version 3.0.2 without much fanfare, and that update does seem to be somewhat related to the Aperture 3.0's release, where the latter enables the way software shares images by the local network. Apart from that, that update seemed to have magically fixed faraway standing problems that are related to switching its HDMI output cable, while minor tweaks involving its user interface and enhanced text readability are additionally very much welcome. You can apply that new software update from the Update Software option that can be found within the Settings/General menu on Apple TV.

Updated Zune Software Hints At Zune Phone
January 26, 2010
A Zune phone? We’re certain you’ve heard plenty of rumors indicating of such a device, so what’s so special about that one? Well, a new Zune software update that was just released (version 4.2.202.0) seems to be hinting of such a device. Inside the Zune.inf file, cipher has been found that identifies a “Phone”, along with a vendor ID that is locked to Microsoft, along with 3 different product IDs that could correspond to 3 different phone models. Of course, that could be related to the Zune being integrated into Windows Mobile 7 in the future, but with Mobile World Congress just around the corner, you can’t help but think that Microsoft might spring a surprise on us.
