The OS being released at the beginning of next month would make us feel that it requires IFA 2011 for the upcoming version in Berlin and also this will give us an advantage over Apple iOS.

Destaca por su diseño premiado con un iF Design 2012, y por atreverse, que ya es hora, con Ice Cream Sandwich como sistema operativo.

Sobre especificaciones sabemos muy poco, sólo que la pantalla es de 4.3 pulgadas, con resolución HD y un marco bastante pequeño en los laterales, y que cuenta con el logo de la prestigiosa Dolby en sus espaldas.

Aunque será una de las piezas claves, si no el teléfono más importante, de Acer en el Mobile World Congress 2012 de Barcelona, el dispositivo parece que no estará en el mercado hasta al menos el mes de julio, pero es una información que tendrán que confirmarnos en el propio evento.

Phone Reviews Microsoft Introduces 'Tabletop' PC

Phone Reviews

As computing devices get smaller and smaller, Microsoft is bucking the trend with its Microsoft Surface 'tabletop' PC, code-named 'Milan.' The device, about the size of a small desk, allows the user to draw and write on the surface with a brush or fingers. Instead of using a mouse or keyboard, the user manipulates digital elements on the surface with his or her hands.

The first of the Milan devices will be shipped to corporate customers to be used as kiosks... providing Milan with crucial exposure while allowing Microsoft to work out any kinks before offering surface computing to home and office users. At any rate, the average consumer will be forgiven for not pouncing on the first available units, which cost approximately $10,000 each.

smart phone review Remote-Controlled Pigeons

smart phone review Chinese scientists have reportedly been able to control a pigeon's flight remotely through electrodes that stimulated different parts of the bird's brain. Scientists at the Robot Engineering Technology Research Center at Shandong University were able to send the pigeon commands to fly left, right, up and down. It is reportedly the first such successful experiment in the world, and could have important implications for neurology and even remote mind control.

smart phone compare The Risks of Autonomous Robots

smart phone compare Anyone familiar with the Terminator or Matrix movies has an idea of the dangers of intelligent machines running amok. But as scientists develop ever more autonomous robots, such warnings are moving from speculation to reality very quickly.

Samsung, for example, has developed an armed robotic sentry for use in patrolling the tense border between North and South Korea. Such military applications alarm robotic ethicists, who suggest that society is not ready to confront the consequences of autonomous robots designed to kill. They are also concerned about the growing use of robots to care for the elderly, particularly in Japan. Is society, they ask, truly ready to entrust its most frail members to these machines, particularly since our experience with them is relatively limited? Or, could an automated, autonomous nursing home prove to be a 'dumping ground' for those whose care is too inconvenient?

Flick Fishing First to a Million Paid Downloads

Congrats to iPhone game developer Freeverse, who announced today that over the weekend they sold the millionth copy of their Flick Fishing game, making Flick Fishing the first paid application to reach the one million download milestone.

Flick Fishing allows iPhone and iPod touch users to take a virtual fishing trip with the flick of a wrist.  The game uses the iPhone's accelerometer to recreate a casting motion, then a combination of bait choice and fishing skill helps players land the big fish.

The iPhone OS 3.0 update issued last week for Flick Fishing allows peer-to-peer networking for players to compare their catches while competing in a blackjack style fishing contest. In addition, in-app purchases of a new fishing location and new fish have been made by nearly 10 percent of users since the OS 3.0 update was issued.
 
'We couldn't be happier that so many people decided to put on their virtual fishing cap and give Flick Fishing a try,' said Ian Lynch Smith, president and co-founder of Freeverse. 'We're very proud that over one million players have discovered that Flick Fishing is a great way to enjoy summer fun on your iPhone without the pesky flies and mosquitoes.'

The game can be purchased from iTunes for $.99 by clicking here.
