This is what many people waiting for, a laptop from the world's most trusted mobile brand. That is going to be true. Nokia is going to launch the 'Nokia Booklet 3G'.

Nothing so say here. Have a look at the features.



Prices & Date of launch not declared yet. But this one will be the major attraction at the Nokia World to be held in Germany.

Apple WWDC 2009: iPhone 3G got some new features.

  • 3 Megapixel autofocus camera
  • Video recording
  • Voice Control
  • Digital compass
  • Cut, Copy & Paste
  • MMS23
  • Spotlight Search
  • Landscape keyboard
  • Voice Memos
  • Forward messages with text, video, photos, audio, locations, and contact information to others
  • Peer to Peer, Now your iPhone can find the other iPhone in the area & you can play the games with other device having iPhone OS 3 .
The new iPhone is called now iPhone 3G S, will be available from Jun 19.
iPhone 3G (without `S`), is now cheaper by 50% in price.

Wanna get fresh vegetables & fruits directly from farms? How far the farm is, if you live in the forest of cement & concrete?
What if skyscrapers nearby provide you all that things?

Yes, in near future you will be able to find & get the fresh fruits & vegetables just few steps away from your home.

Dickson Despommier, a professor of public health at Columbia University, has thought about a project, “vertical farm,” a concept he created in 1999.

Here are some concept pictures.



Finally, iPhone will be launched in India by October/November '08.
I was amazed when I heard the price that won't be more than $199 (across 70 countries worldwide), although you wont get it in that amount, you will have to tie up with your service provider. In India, Vodafone is going to launch it with minimum plan of around Rs. 23,000 with 2 year subscription.

As Steve Jobs said in recent WWDC, Price was the major factor for the people who didn't buy the iPhone in the countries where iPhone launched. So Apple slashed the price 50% less!

But.. will we the new iPhone 3G with all the feature & accessories provided with previous version of iPhone (iPhone EDGE), thats the big question.

Lets hope in India, we will get the same as we can see in this video
Lets unpack the iPhone.

The largest Indian telecom company, BSNL is planning to build a mobile WiMax network covering three states on the subcontinent capable of serving 250 million people.
State-owned Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited is leaning on Soma Networks to build the broadband-speed network in response to government requirement that 20 million broadband lines be in service by 2010.
The WiMax rollout will first hit the largest and most-connected states, but BSNL is planning on extending the network if things go well. When it's done, 400 Indian cities will be covered, with downstream speeds of 1.5 megabits per seconds. No word on when that might be, but the race is officially on, Sprint.
