No less than 45,000 iPhones to be Purchased by Koln University for Students






The iPhone has been a best selling device ever since it debuted on the market in June of 2007. It’s got a 2 megapixel camera and a 3.5″ multi touch display. There is an 8GB model available for $199, while the 16GB model is available for $299. At Europe, Köln University at Germany has decided to buy an iPhone for each and every student attending its courses. No less than 45,000 are going to be purchased by the university for the students. The excuse is perfect! Students will be able to stay in touch with their teachers and stay on top of their schedules. An application for the iPhone is said to be created. It will manage university life, schedules and more.

The question is the luxury of having an iPhone for every student is the sense of security; it’s just appeared that each student will be a clear target for a holdup. And don’t you think each student will have a time for their studies (I would rather play with my iPhone)? Another thing is that it maybe a promotional things only for the university, why not just built a more useful facilities.

Why not also buy some Nintendo Wii or a Sony PS3 for the entertainment of each student?

Well, it’s always up to them, just my side comments. And what you think? Do you like there ideas?

Excited for a Microsoft Zune Phone at CES






A rumor circulating this week says Microsoft will unveil a Zune phone at CES 2009. Most columnists and bloggers who mentioned it said Microsoft should not build a Zune phone, but probably will.

When the Zune-phone-at-CES rumor hit, bloggers and pundits speculated that the company would target Apple, which people think created a phone based on the iPod. Commentators initially imagined a phone that looks and works like one of the larger hard-disk-based Zunes, but with cell phone functionality.

That idea fizzled when Brian Seitz, Microsoft Zune group manager, told Gizmodo that no Zune phone will be unveiled at CES. Now the rumor-monger consensus is that Microsoft will instead unveil a project code-named "Pink," which is software that puts Zune functionality on a Windows Mobile device, including the playing of media and easy access to the Zune Marketplace.

Another popular idea is that Microsoft will unveil a Danger Sidekick device at CES that's all Pinked out and sold as a music phone. Either way, the addition of Zune-like software to existing phones doesn't add up to a bona fide Zune phone.

If you’re an Apple lover are you excited if Zune Phone will arrive?

Best Buy Announces Blackberry Storm







According to the latest weather forecast, there will be a super storm to hit on 23rd of this month. Don’t be alarmed when you flip to the Best Buy ad and see the Storm front and center on the Best Buy Mobile page for this Sunday. There it is in all its glory, supposedly available for sale today. It is even listed with a free Plantronics 360 bluetooth headset. Don’t go running down to Best Buy just yet though. It won’t be there as these fliers were printed before the latest delay that pushed the Storm launch to November 23rd for Best Buy. A small disclaimer on its website confirms the new release date.




So anyone who doesn’t want to brave the crowds at Verizon stores on release day can head on down to your local Best Buy one week from today and score yourself a Storm. Start robbing those piggy banks though, as the Storm without a contract as purchased from Best Buy will set you back a cool $599.

So buyers who are crazily waiting for the release be more excited to head on one week from now.

New Palm and New OS to arrive at CES 2009





CES 2009 has been quite really exciting because of some tempting rumors and early announcements. And have you heard of Palm? There one of those whose taking CES a new opportunity for their new big thing. It looks Palm has some surprises ready for CES 2009. A new product is supposed to be revealed and a new OS.


Here’s what an analyst for CL King & Associates, Lawrance Harris, said:

It’s quite likely, actually close to a certainty, that they will show a new OS, new user interface and probably new hardware. This is Palm’s last shot to prove it has what it takes to survive in a very competitive market.


The new OS is the Nova. We’ve heard before about this Linux-based OS before and we were expecting it to arrive sometime in 2009. Possibly early 2009? The Nova should bring us that much needed 3G support as we’re all expecting the new Palm handsets to be 3G ready. Looking forward to CES 2009 then. Who knows what will happen?

Few more weeks and lets see what will happen.

Apple Announces Its Last Year at Macworld


Apple® announced that this year is the last year the company will exhibit at Macworld Expo. Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing, will deliver the opening keynote for this year’s Macworld Conference & Expo, and it will be Apple’s last keynote at the show and Steve Jobs won't be on hand to say goodbye.

Apple is reaching more people in more ways than ever before, so like many companies, trade shows have become a very minor part of how Apple reaches its customers. The increasing popularity of Apple’s Retail Stores, which more than 3.5 million people visit every week, and the Apple.com website enable Apple to directly reach more than a hundred million customers around the world in innovative new ways. Apple has been steadily scaling back on trade shows in recent years, including NAB, Macworld New York, Macworld Tokyo and Apple Expo in Paris.


The keynote address will be held at Moscone West on Tuesday, January 6, 2009 at 9:00 a.m. Macworld will be held at San Francisco’s Moscone Center January 5-9, 2009.

Sad to know that it will be the end to the conference which has been one of the launching points of some of the most vital part of the computing technology nowadays.

Dell Adamo, threatens MacBook Air

New York Times says a future laptop is going to be even lighter and thinner than the lightest of them all so far, the MacBook Air. Is Apple ready to get a competitor for that share of the market? Dell is coming out with a computer called Adamo that will rival the MacBook Air. What we can say for sure is that Dell’s version of a thin laptop will be way cheaper than Apple’s Air.

The Adamo might be the future laptop of choice for someone interested in an Air-like experience. We have no idea when this notebook is going to be released but we’re hoping 2009.

Let’s just see, who is the thinnest of them all?
