The new 3-megapixel camera takes great still photos, too, thanks to built-in autofocus and a handy new feature that lets you tap the display to focus on anything (or anyone) you want.

Voice Control recognizes the names in your Contacts and knows the music on your iPod. So if you want to place a call or play a song, all you have to do is ask.

Mobile phones are a good source of entertainment and are hence referred to as ‘handheld entertainers’. Every mobile phone ranging from the cheapest one to the high-end gadget has games installed in it, which are wholesome entertainers. Similarly ‘music’ is one such application that attracts many users. Today’s mobile phones are hi-fi music systems. Mobile phones also act as recording gadgets. Mobile phone cameras are very common. Some of the mobile phones have a very high-resolution camera hat gives excellent results.

The entertainment applications are a big success as they are user friendly and entertain you anywhere, anytime may it be your long journey, airports, railway station and bus stops.

Mobile World Congress: your next mobile will be smarter and greener

We have a look at the year’s top trends in mobile technology - and the phones that embody them

By Claudine Beaumont and Matt Warman

Sony Ericsson Idou Built-in camera has 12 megapixel sensor ? that's semi-pro quality

Today marks the final day of Mobile World Congress, a huge technology show devoted to mobile phones, products and services, and over the past four days, mobile phone makers have tried their hardest to out-do each other with an increasingly high-technology range of handsets and software. Each of their devices is now less like a mobile phone and more a mobile computer.
Although Apple is not at the show, its hugely popular iPhone continues to have a big impact on the way other mobile phone companies conduct their business. Like it or loathe it, the innovative design and intuitive user interface of Apple’s flagship device has raised consumer expectations and thrown a gauntlet down to competitors.

Microsoft, whose Windows Mobile operating system is used on millions of mobile phones worldwide, has been candid about the threat posed by Apple, and used Mobile World Congress as a platform to launch an agressive new strategy that aims to take the fight directly to Apple. The company’s chief executive, Steve Ballmer, heralded the new Windows platform that would bring together “the best of the web, the PC and the phone” so users can connect instantly to “the experiences they care about”.

He unveiled a new-look operating system that incorporates some of the simplified design features and touch controls usually associated with the iPhone, as well as MyPhone, a data synchronisation service that will allow “Windows Phone” users to back-up all the photos, music, contacts and text messages stored on their handset to an online storage area for easy retrieval.
But Microsoft wasn’t the only company making waves at the show. Many other established mobile phone makers showed a new willingness to embrace the latest platforms and technologies to win over consumers, and to keep Apple and other competitors at arms’ length.
Here, we look at some of the key trends to emerge from Mobile World Congress 2009.

Magic Touch

Last year, all the talk at Mobile World Congress was about Android, the open-source, Google-backed operating system that aims to bring the desktop computing experience to mobile devices.

So far, theT-Mobile G1 is the only phone on sale running Android, and although no official figures have been released, analysts believe it has sold more modestly than hoped. So Google needs the HTC Magic, the successor to the G1 that was unveiled at the show, to be a success. Exclusive to Vodafone in the UK, the Magic is a well-designed touch-screen only device, with a built-in music player and three-megapixel camera. Vodafone seems to be pitching the Magic as an “entry level” smartphone, rather than a device for geeks, which could persuade more mobile users to give Android a chance.

Moreover, it adds more momentum to the Android Marketplace, an online shop from which Android users can download extra software for their handset.

Software rules

“Application stores” were another key feature of the show. In the six months since Apple launched its “App Store” for the iPhone and iPod touch, which lets users buy games, tools and software on their handsets, more than half a billion programs have been downloaded via iTunes. Mobile makers and network operators, always keen to find new ways to make money, view stores as the perfect solution: they offer revenue for businesses and the developers who write the games and software, and enable users to quickly, cheaply and easily tailor phones to suit their specific needs. Microsoft, Nokia, O2 and Orange all unveiled application stores at the Mobile World Congress, perhaps going to show that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Platform wars

To run any downloaded applications on a phone, you need an operating system, and another big story from the show was the rivalry between some of the platforms. Windows Mobile, revitalised by Steve Ballmer’s new strategy, was the operating system of choice for many manufacturers at the show, including HTC, Toshiba and LG, which pledged to launch 50 Windows-based phones in the next three years. Symbian, the operating system favoured by Nokia, also consolidated its strong market position, and will drive Sony Ericsson’s Idou phone (see below), the Samsung Omnia HD (see below) and Nokia’s flagship N97. And we mustn’t forget Palm. The company, which was once famous for its PDAs but which failed to keep up with challengers like Motorola and BlackBerry, has created a new operating system, Palm OS, to run on the impressive touch-screen Palm Pre, which will be coming to the UK later this year.

Covergence is king

Thanks to the growing sophistication of phones’ operating systems, handsets can do more, and do it better. Several of the phones at the show could render digital cameras and camcorders obsolete. Sony Ericsson’s Idou has a 12-megapixel image sensor built in, which puts it on a par with some semi-professional cameras. Samsung’s Omnia HD, meanwhile, can use its built-in eight-megapixel camera to shoot high-definition footage, and stream it wirelessly to compatible televisions and computers. This is crucial if phone makers are going to realise their ambition of turning handsets into “home media hubs”.

Green is the new black

“Green” technology featured heavily at the show. Both LG and Samsung showed off mobile phones that could be powered by sunlight, while a coalition of all the major manufacturers announced that they had agreed on a type of universal phone charger – eliminating the waste of a new charger in every box, while making life easier and much less full of cables.

European Commission plans to cut routing costs have been stymied by governments.

By Huw Jones, Reuters,

The European Commission has failed to win governments' support for draft guidelines to cut the cost of mobile phone call routing fees failed to win a clear endorsement from EU governments, suggesting changes must be made before adoption.

EU Telecoms Commissioner Viviane Reding authored the guidelines for national regulators in the bloc's 27 countries to cut wholesale call termination fees by up to 70 per cent to spur competition and give customers a better deal.

An operator will pay a termination fee, currently around €9 cents (eight pence) a minute, for using another operator's network to complete a call.

The fees represent up to 20 per cent of revenues for large operators with big networks and are a big cost for small networks trying to compete. The guidelines will bring fees down to €1.5 cents to €3 cents a minute.

The EU's communications committee (Cocom) of national government officials and the Commission met to give a non-binding opinion and most countries either abstained or voted against some aspects.

Germany and Spain voted to scrap the guidelines altogether. Their biggest domestic operators say the measure will leave less money for important investment.

The Commission said there was enough support for the guidelines to be fully phased in by February 2012 but about eight countries want other ways to cut fees such as "benchmarking" or tracking average rates in other EU states.

"The Commission welcomes the positive signal at the vote today and there is support for the objective to lower by the first of February 2012 mobile termination rates to the level of the cost of an efficient operator," Reding's spokesman said.

"The Commission will now carefully analyse the view of member states who expressed the need for more flexibility," the spokesman said, adding adoption was scheduled for April.

An official close to one of the big Continental European operators said Reding will be obliged to review the guidelines.

"Without the consent of member states they cannot adopt the text. Will states be ready to apply the recommendation if their governments have voted against it?" the official said on condition of anonymity.

The European Regulators Group of national telecoms supervisors has said termination rates were already falling and would come down by 40 per cent over the next three years anyway.

Mobile - Cell phone tracking using Google maps

Posted in Trace it by admin

Did you know that your mobile phone sends out details on your whereabouts every second to the world? If you haven’t heard of it, then its high time to realize that the cell phone in your pocket is tracking every move of yours and sharing the data with third party apps. Just like a GPS system or any other much powerful and better system, it is tracking your every move. S60 (Symbian 60) based mobile phones report location using cell tower based location tracking system and it is possible to trace the location on Google maps.

Install ‘Google maps’ on any S60 based mobile phone (like Nokia E51, E71, N73, N96) and press the option “My Location” from the “Options” menu. It will show you the location within 100 meters to 2 km depending on the cell tower and network availability. In places where there is good connectivity, it will track you down more efficiently than any GPS device, which won’t work indoor.

“Google maps” is distributed free by Google and you can install it without any hassle by visiting http://m.google.com. All you need is an active GPRS/ EDGE /3G connection to make it work. Nokia maps and other mapping software do not have this feature and it works only via a GPS device at the moment.

Give it a try.

What does it mean to Google? Why they want to track mobile users?

Google, as always, wants to sell its advertisements through all mediums practically possible. The multi billion giant needs to know your area of interests in order to sell their so-called targeted ads. They find their answers through various mediums - ‘what you want’ from “Google search”; ‘what you do’ from Gmail, Calendar, Docs etc”; what you see from “You Tube”. Imagine the possibility of displaying the ads about your local coffee shop on your mobile; imagine the reach and relevance of the advts you will be seeing. They simply enhance their ‘free’ software and track you even without GPS.

“The My Location technology is available on most smartphones, including all color BlackBerry devices, all Symbian Series 60 3rd Edition devices, most Windows Mobile devices, newer Sony Ericsson devices, and some Motorola devices.”

Written by Ameya

SMART PHONE's OS Comparison:

Today the performance of the smartphones is determined by the software they run.Todays smartphones are really smart.The Os of smartphones plays very vital role in functionality of phone.

In this article we are gonna compare the OS of following five leading phones.

1.Apples I-phone

2.Goolges G-1

3.HTC Touch Diamond



4.Nokia N96



5.Blackberry Bold



Winners:

The most impressive OS among all was Apples iphone OS and Googles Android.Both are built for internet users and gives great multimedia experience to its users.Right now Apples i-phones OS is leading the race with its most popular phone ever,i-phone.But the main disadvantage of Apples OS is its not open source OS.While the Googl’s OS,Android has edge over Apple i-phones OS as it is open sourced and there are no restrictions on third party developers.

Blackberry OS is also doing well as it is becoming more popular in business class users day by day.

But the both windows Mobile and S60 3rd edition are doing very badly.Windows mobiles are the biggest losers as far as OS competition is concerned.
