iPhone for Palm and a paper iPhone, for those who can't wait

15 enero, 2007 - 09:14 | Comentar

If you don't mind, we're going to stop this 'iPhone Special' for a while, given that there still is some intelligent life outside. We'll do so with two emergency solutions for those who can't wait to purchase Apple's cell phone. First, a program to 'turn' your Treos and other Palms into an iPhone. And then, a DIY iPhone that you can show off in vanity snapshots.

Emirates to allow using cellphones during flights

3 diciembre, 2006 - 23:37 | Comentar

This story is a month old, but it's still remarkable: Emirates to allow in-flight mobile phone service. Starting next January, using cellphones will be allowed on board, both for making calls and receiving messages (and hopefully, also for accessing the Internet and e-mail).

Two Palms on a train

Via YouTube we can remember this old Palm commercial, combining a classic boy meets girl situation and a PDA feature very much appreciated by seasoned users. You may call me a romantic, but I found it a delightful ad.

Tooth Tunes, a toothbrush that plays music

16 septiembre, 2006 - 09:59 | Comentar

You won't find your most personal audio in your iPod, Zen, Sansa or Zune, but in your mouth: Tooth Tunes is a new toothbrush that transmits music to the ear by vibration through the user's teeth and jawbone. It sounds for exactly two minutes, just the time that most dentists recommend to brush your teeth.

News we can't cope with, but we couldn't let go, either:

Apple will fork out $100 million to Creative for settling their mutual patent dispute. Apparently, the music browsing system that Apple uses in the iPod bears more than a passing resemblance to one that the Singapore-based company filed a patent for, back in January 2001. According to the joint press release, both companies are now more friends than ever.
Nokia extends its 3G-cellphone range in Spain with two new models that one does not know if camera-fitted phones or phone-fitted cameras. One of them, the N93 (749 €; available today) records VGA video at 30 frames per second, while the N73 (509 €; available next week) takes 3.2-megapixel pictures with a Carl Zeiss lens and includes everything to post them on the Net.

Cell phones for children

12 julio, 2005 - 02:00 | Comentar

Here it comes: Movistar is the first Spanish mobile carrier targeting the youngest customers, and it does with a set of services focused specifically on the parents' peace of mind. And this has just started: half of Spanish children between 10 and 15 years old already have a cellphone, and the figure increases to almost 80 percent between 16-17 years. At this rate, parents will soon be able to consumate their resignation as such, finally delegating their responsibilities to their mobile carriers.

For an electronic Euro

24 noviembre, 2004 - 09:20 | 735 comentarios

Physical money will disappear, as paper condemned metal to a secondary role as small change. For almost three decades, digital money has been gaining ground and it looks inevitable that, in the near future, most financial transations take place via electronic systems: using cards, cell phones or subcutaneal chips. Who knows which technology, but it’s for sure that it will not be old paper bills.
