RUMOR: Apple Tablet Is an iPhone with a 10.7″ Screen

Mashable! 2009-09-29 18.55 

"Although there have been rumors about the size of the screen and the different manufacturers providing the parts, details about the device itself have been mostly relegated to fan-made mock-ups and idle speculation. However, today Jeremy Horowitz from iLounge is reporting on some very detailed rumors regarding the device, its features, and its projected release."

- Here is even more about this Apple Tablet rumor I posted about some hour ago. Quite interesting but I will not buy it. I have the iPhone for this. A tablet is too big for me.

Apple will possibly unveil this tablet in January 2010.

Leaked photos of unannounced phones always make the delight of mobile enthusiasts, so we’re sure that this new image with many Nokia phones will be of interest to you (or at least to those who like Finnish phones). Said image shows no less than 10 Nokia handsets, although it looks like only 5 of them are unannounced – including the Nokia N97 Mini.

Why are always "Leaked" pictures so blurry?

Motorola preparing WebOS-like Blur Android UI?

Motorola’s customized interface will apparently be called Blur. It will be upgradeable over-the-air and “heavily web-connected”, combining “personal contacts and social networking sites into a clean and easy to use interface.” Somewhat similar to Palm’s WebOS platform, which has proven to be quite successful until now.

- Motorola is really going for Googles Android OS (Knowledge: http://kb.clipotech.com/android ) it seems.
I think that's the way to go to be competive to Apples iPhone. Lets hope Nokia and Sony Ericsson will do the same.

Are Camera Phones Killing the Digital Camera? - Not without optical zoom tags: cameras, mobiles


Are mobile phones featuring high-powered cameras replacing the conventional digital camera in the minds of consumers?

http://seekingalpha.com/article/153198-are-camera-phones-killing-the-digital-camera

- Not as long mobile phones don't have optical zoom lenses they wont.
One good thing though, is that you always have a mobile phone with you.
A real camera - not so often.
