The MWC also had occasion to use phones that have gone on sale in Spain but had not yet proven. One is the Motorola RAZR Droid, that marvel of engineering that has set up a slim terminal with power more than acceptable.

Appearance.

The Motorola RAZR mobile phone is a particularly remarkable for its appearance. To begin its thinness makes the device look like a Galaxy S2 thick. It measures only 7.1 mm and at the show but had thinner phones Motorola materials do not have rival. The front was a Gorilla glass whose resistance could be seen in three tests that were really hard on the stand of the American company.

But the best was the rear, Kevlar, which gives a very futuristic feel and appearance and makes us think terminals much lighter and stronger.

Potency.

With respect to the power of said mobile located in the mean while customizing Android 2.3 Gingerbread found excessive, as is the case with all who use Moto blur Motorola’s or its successor. Hopefully with Google’s entry, although it has been said that interference will not occur at least we dismiss this kind of customization that strong.

In a move even stranger than it did when it introduced the Samsung Ace 2 and Samsung Galaxy Mini 2, the Korean company today unveiled a new mobile. If present before the Mobile was strange, it is even more so after. It seems that Samsung does not want competition from other manufacturers in the presentation of its terminals.

The lower range.

Samsung has introduced a mobile phone range lower than his already limited Galaxy Mini. This device is intended are what either want an Android extremely small or want to spend as little as possible on a phone.

The dimensions are quite compact 103.7 x 57.5 x 12 mm and the screen size is also designed to not take up much space, with 2.8 inches, almost the least of course today with the applications we use.

Benefits.

In addition to the 2.8 inch screen with QVGA resolution, the smallest one made by Samsung Android, the Galaxy Pocket minimum benefits have to carry this operating system.

Connectivity is accomplished through the 3.6 Mbps HSDPA, Wi-Fi, GPS … taking also accelerometer, digital compass and of course the ubiquitous Samsung Touch Wiz layer with its own applications, most notably Chat ON.

The processor of 832 MHz and has 3 GB of internal memory, with the possibility of using micros cards. Your camera is 2 megapixels and can record video, but not in HD quality.

It also has Bluetooth 3.0, stereo radio with RDS FM radio. YOUR battery is only 1200 mash, although leading benefits should not have bad self.

Other options.

There are few alternatives to this model waiting to know the prices, although it is possible that the Hawaii Ascend G300 ZTE or any of the MWC can stand up on price performance, not size.

Yesterday we published the news mobile operator Vodafone that apply to 36-month stay from 1 February in the new contracts and stays associated with a mobile phone.

The debate has been raised both in the post as at the entrance of Dig even reached home. Yet few people seem to know the reason for this change in policy Vodafone.

Terminal subsidies.

One of the biggest expenses for an attendant is what makes paying terminal suppliers, brands like Samsung and Nokia to acquire terminals in large quantities at a price though smaller than it would to a free drive more expensive than which then charged to customers who sell them.

This might seem strange since it is an operation in which lose money. The fact is that it will never separate from a residence, that is, a contractual obligation to consume at least a month together with the inability to change your company without paying a penalty.

Basically, the operator makes an investment in a device that rely on a profit impact on the investment greater than when the customer is many months spending money from your new mobile and Vodafone card.

The balance.

This should be a balance between initial investment and the expected income. In the long run has to generate more money the client pays for Vodafone mobile, you spend on infrastructure to maintain the customer’s proportional, salaries, rents, etc… The concept is so simple and obvious, is to win more than you spend.

If this balance, inclined to the income, since we cannot lose sight of that is a company and its ultimate goal is to create profit, the company is not given in this case Vodafone, must turn to do so.

The permanence.

So far Vodafone has been a permanent employee of 18 or 24 months depending on the terminal model. It is a decision made at the time and nobody forced him to perform, since the 24-month stays legal. In many countries, including United States, 24 months are virtually the only ones there.

Other Spanish companies have also used, at least partially, these long stays.

The problem is that users demand ever more powerful terminals, equipped and therefore expensive. An example is the Samsung Galaxy S2, or phone 4S, better handsets on the market that have been seen and sold a lot. The point is that not always been associated with such investments to cover costs.

The MVNO.

Hiring a subsidized phone is never an obligation and mobile virtual network operators, who lease the network of large, commercial strategy based on that. Opt for a very low rates compared with large, because they have to cope with such high payments in respect of many aspects, but especially of terminal manufacturers.

The threats of portability.

Contrary to what many believe, the threats of portability should not be a problem for the company that suffers, because the rules are set by it. If you need to raise prices, raise rates or deny a customer a phone that is not worth full authority to do so. It is true that there is always the danger that they go to another operator, but the operator has to choose if you want all customers as possible so only those who are in a certain market segment.

The ability to buy a free mobile and pay either in cash or in installments is something that is becoming increasingly less strange. But above all we must not forget that there are very decent terminals that are not excessively expensive. For about 300 Euros have terminals that can easily pass two years of use as the Nokia 710 or the Lamia SonyEricsson Experian Neo V. Prorating the cost comes to just over 10 Euros a month.

Conclusion.

The operators have every right to change the terms of futures contracts, while not unilaterally change the present, and consumers to change the current company if not satisfied. The problem is when that gesture is an aggravation for users, something not typically used.

Integrating solar panels on a mobile phone seems to be the best way to keep it charged because we do so with green energy. But some engineers at the University of California want to go further and are developing a new technology whereby the LCD screens will be capable of generating solar energy.

This undoubtedly could have a large number of devices that use organic solar energy in the future. This technology can be used not only sunlight but also the ambient light in which we are and the light from the backlight, all thanks to organic solar cells.

So far this seems like a dream, but we are sure that in the very near future we can have this type of LCDs in our hands.

Cell Phone Protection

Although this story is the past, the truth is that it was surprising to learn that LG would have had in their hands the possibility to manufacture the world’s first phone with Android operating system. Of course, this fact has occurred, the world order as far as mobile phone deals today would not be the same.

This story dates back to 2007 and Unwired View, LG the only reason for rejecting the offer of Google is that it could be pride. Why? Because at that time LG was on top of smart phones. That year, Apple launched its first phone and LG was the only company that had a team ready similarly, the LG KE850 Prada. Moreover, LG Apple even accused of having copied the design of the terminal at the same time, working on another Smartphone, the LG Views, and a device that much more advanced phone features. The fight was at the time, Apple and LG, then why would LG to share their competitive advantage and market position with Google, a beginner then-?

Therefore, LG separated initially moved on Google. However, your bet does not go well because the software that implemented their phones back then was a management nightmare for users. And above and could compare with the ease with which the followers of the phone managed their devices. Even the LG KM900 Arena which was released two years later, in 2009, with the new user interface S, was a nightmare in handling compared to the phone. And to make matters worse, in late 2008 and early 2009 opted for LG Windows Mobile operating system, a strategy that will not go well, since Microsoft was running and its resources to Windows Phone 7.Thus, when the explosive growth of the Smartphone is between 2009 and 2010, LG had was not prepared to face the fierce competition.

If we compare the current situation with the HTC LG, have nothing to do. HTC is the fourth company in the smart phone market, while the presence in the Smartphone market LG is rather limited and only now is trying to make a hole with the series Optimums and the Android operating system. Not cooperating with Google was a strategic decision that has conditioned clearly past their future.

For those who do not know Virtue is the luxury brand mobile phone subsidiary ofNokia, something like the Cadillac of phones. Are not yet much known for having powerful smart phones in their ranks, except for some terminal Simian.

It’s just expensive phones, with prices and designs extol obscene luxury and ostentatious, but like any luxury brand has its market share despite being unachievable for most people, and now thanks to the Microsoft deal, like all newsmartphones from Nokia, Virtue will release a Windows mobile phone with 7 as its operating system.

This revelation comes directly from the Twitter profile of Mortmain Elder, editor in chief of Mobile Review, which reads as the Widows Virtue Phone with 7 to come. This would see the first full touch Smartphone Virtue with Microsoft operating system, so you should find a way to make it look fancy using only the rear to include your precious stones, gold, silver or whatever they can happen to these computers worth thousands of dollars that are used to charge for them.

Japan at the forefront of distance education via ‘Smartphone’.

Japan is one of the countries where new technologies are more involved in everyday life and mobile is a good example. It is the world leader in mobile phone use and the first country to become a reality the new Near Field Communication (NFC) which allows payment with mobile devices.

Staying on the cutting edge of technology, Japan is once again pioneering another important sector via mobile phone: education. School Renaissance Academy, a private institute of distance education will ensure that as many people to receive a high school education and get certified.

To do this, Renaissance Academy has decided to join Qualcomm Wireless Reach initiative and to launch a joint project of digital textbooks for Smartphone with 3G, among other resources.

In Japan, the unemployment rate among students who drop out in high school is significantly above average. And even for students who get a job the average full-time employment is relatively low. The high unemployment levels and part-time employment among students who leave school put great pressure on the Japanese social welfare system.

At the same time, many Japanese students are dissatisfied with the standard and inflexible their curricula and usually suffer from lack of motivation.

According to Renaissance Academy, the desire of students to access traditional training institutes taught in Japanese is one of the lowest in the world. This is evident in that every year an increasing number of students expressed their desire to focus on study areas of interest or a possible career.

Because of this, the government is working to implement Nippon measures and help students who dropped out in high school to retake them in order to offer more opportunities to enter the workforce.

Renaissance Academy has plans and specialized training for students who aspire to play a profession and a second chance to those who left school or higher levels of truancy.

Through collaboration with Qualcomm Wireless Reach, students can benefit from being able to access the study material regardless of location. All thanks, how it could be otherwise, to smart phones.

“In the near future, smart phones and digital textbooks are likely to become commonplace, as are a perfect and effective tools for teaching students with different abilities, skills, aspirations and lifestyles,” says president of Renaissance Academy Incorporated, Takayoshi Memoir.
