MP3 Players

Music has always fascinated human beings, irrespective of the country, religion or age. Electronic music started with a bulky biggramophone with an equally large disk tape. But things have changed now, from gramophones to tape recorders, from tape recorders to music systems, from music systems to portable wireless Walkman, and now the ultrportable new era Mp3 players. These petite little devices are capable of playing non stop music for hours, can fit into your pocket, and offer variable storage options. Looks like it justifies the buzz “big things come in small packages”. Nevertheless, we'll be putting some more light on this topic.

A lot of mp4 players have surfaced in the market recently, and probably a major portion of them comes from China.

Apple iPad

Amidst a lot of speculation and rumors, Apple announced a touchscreen tablet PC that is ultra-portable with a mere ½ inch thin body and a 9.7 inch display weighing just 1.5 pounds. The device is running on a custom 1GHz Apple “A4” chip processor that was essential for multitasking that it boasts of. It possesses almost similar functionalities to the other popular Apple products like theiPod or iPod Touch. The application store for these devices is common too, and therefore almost identical applications, except for the fact that iPad will be Apple's first device to use the iBookStore.

Talking about battery backup, this device comes with a 10-hour battery life and a month of standby. Apple here tries to present a tablet PC that is more efficient than laptops ( the battery life of 10 hrs instead of the 4.5 or 5 hrs, commonly found in laptops), yetultra-portable (0.5 inch thick with a weight of just 1.5 pounds).

Apple iPad will be available in 16, 32, and 64 GB memory specifications, with the expected connectivity options. Other major specifications include a 30-pin Dock connector, a speaker, a microphone, as well as an accelerometer and a compass. A keyboard dock is also provided, which connects underneath in the portrait orientation and offers a manual keyboard, as operating on a touch screen might not be that easy.

It supports up to 1024x768 VGA out and 480p composite out through the dock adapter cables. Further, a camera attachment kit allows you to import photos from your camera via USB or directly through an SD card reader. Connectivity options include Bluetooth, 802.11n WiFi and optional 3G. The optional 3G costs an additional $130, apart from the basic $499 for a 16-gigabyte model, $599 for a 32 GB version and $699 for a 64-gigabyte model withWi-Fi.

The language support is available for English, French, German, Japanese, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Simplified Chinese and Russian. As far as the multimedia support is concerned, the supported audio formats includeAAC, Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), MP3 Players (16 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, and 4), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV – supported video formats include .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video,

up to 2.5 Mbps , 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second. But the major concern here is, that it does not supports Flash ( an Adobe hallmark application). Flash is used across a majority of websites and web pages on the internet , so if you are talking about a superior browsing experience without flash, how is that possible? Nonetheless except for a few features, the device looks more like an inflated iPhone.

The all new Windows Phone 7

The 'technology war' seems to be getting bigger and bigger, days after Google launched Android- a google powered operating system, Microsoft launched Windows Phone 7, a new operating system for mobile phones. Microsoft is already leading the market for computer operating systems, and this move is aimed at establishing a strong foothold in the mobile phone industry. The company is particularly targeting to bank on the rising popularity of smartphones amongst the customers. Windows phone 7 is designed keeping in mind the needs of these special customers, and is bound to offer additional functionalities, good user interface and advanced functional prospects.

Other Microsoft services such as Zune media service and Xbox LIVE gaming environment are integrated into this operating system. While the Xbox lures the gaming addicts, the popular Zune media services synchronizes the music and video files. With this the software giant has launched “Live Tiles”,a virtual post-its for the Mobile Phone. Shortcuts for favorite apps or Web sites in the form of large, colorful tiles greet you to the home screen. Live tiles with links to your Facebook profile or friends can also be placed for a one touch access. “Live” here means that they are working in real time environment, so if the content of the app or site is updated, the tile will be automatically updated on your screen.

“Hubs” as the Microsoft says, is a new application, which by default combines the content of around six themes including people, pictures, games , marketplace, music and office. The People Hub displays friends from all of your social networks in three screens: Recent, All and What's New. 'Recent' screen shows you the most recently updated profile or pictures, 'All' displays the whole list of friends and updates, and the 'What's new' screen displays, what are the latest happenings around you.

To demonstrate complete control, Microsoft has locked the Windows Mobile 7 User interface, thereby restricting the hardware platforms to its partners. Microsoft's hardware partners include Dell, HTC, Garmin ASUS, LG, Samsung, SE, Toshiba, HP and Qualcomm. But as for flash integration, Microsoft stated that “it has no problem, introducing Flash”, which is an Adobe hallmark application. This comes as a relief to the users, after the smartphone leader Apple announced that it's latest products would not support flash integration. Most websites, and web based applications around the globe work on flash based integration, and therefore flash introduction in the Windows 7 series certainly sounds better.

Microsoft tries to strike a balance here by neither making Windows Phone 7 as a closed end application (Flash support), and nor even a truely open ended application, which is actually good as it maintains integrity of the application and addresses security concerns, and on the contrary doesn't limits the application scope by supporting major integrations. Amidst all this buzz we are expecting that Microsoft comes up with something really interesting and user-friendly.

Apart from suave looks, the metal finish adds to the durability. The 5megapixel comes with features such as face detection, smile shot, vintage shot, image editor etc. It,s quite natural that camera with higher mega pixels need more memory, this is taken care by the inbuilt 2GB/8GB memory with expandable options ranging upto 32GB. The memory options comprehend very well with type of camera, and ensure that you never run out of space.

It provides multi-codec support for DivX, XviD, MP3 and WMV.
