Available exclusively to T-Mobile, the award-winning t509 boasts an expanded 1.9-inch display ideal for supporting advanced multimedia features including messaging and snapping vivid color images taken with the integrated camera. The t509 also features high-speed EDGE connectivity and Bluetooth® wireless technology, enabling consumers to record and share videos, and to download T-Mobile’s latest content – from ringtones and CallerTunes® to games, graphics and more. The t509 joins Samsung and T-Mobile’s successful slim predecessor, the sleek black t809 slider phone, in a long line of innovative devices that break the mold when it comes to wireless design and functionality. Both phones support impressive multimedia features, incorporate bright color screens and measure less than 15 mm in width. "Only available from T-Mobile, the Samsung t509 brilliantly redefines what many consumers expect from the ‘candy bar’ form factor," said John Clelland, senior vice president, Marketing, T-Mobile USA. "It’s a lightweight, ultra-thin, high-style phone with a compelling feature set that will excite T-Mobile customers and make it the newest must-have device on the market."........

The PN-820 (PC-8200N) combines high-end functionality and stylish design, has 1.3-megapixel camera with flash, memory expansion via miniSD (I/O) cards. The device has also powerful connectivity features, including WI-FI (not sure) and Bluetooth. The FCC pages do not reveal information on its display, but we guess it is a QVGA 240x320, 65k color TFT one, and secondary unit is located on the front shell for caller ID functionality.........

A team of experimentalists and theorists at the University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University and Harvard University has proposed a new and surprisingly effective means of stabilizing and controlling ferroelectricity in nanostructures: terminating their surfaces with fragments of water. Ferroelectrics are technologically important "smart" materials for a number of applications because they have local dipoles, which can switch up and down to encode and store information. The team's work is published in the recent issue of Nano Letters. "It is astonishing to see that a single wire of even a few atoms across can act as a stable and switchable dipole memory element," Jonathan Spanier, assistant professor of materials science and engineering at Drexel, said. Spanier and colleagues successfully demonstrated the benefits of using water to stabilize memory bits in segments of oxide nanowires that are only about 3 billionths of a meter wide. "We have been interested in how water sticks to oxides," Alexie Kolpak, Penn graduate student in theoretical physical chemistry, said. "We are especially excited that water is the key ingredient in making these wires 'remember' their state"......... Posted by: Ryan Permalink Source Samsung SPH-B3100 Cell Phone
One of the striking features of the phone is the Synaptics MobileTouch interface for accessing music player controls. The interface provides for a thinner phone with a focus on music-on-demand (MOD) services which may become more of a reality than hype in 2006.........

The joint research facility, a collaboration between Nokia Research Center and MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), brings scientists and researchers from MIT and Nokia together to develop high-impact research to create the state of the art in communications technologies. "Our mission is to explore and develop technologies that will be available in the marketplace in five to 10 years - not just novelties, but technologies that will see mass market demand from consumers and enterprises," said Bob Iannucci, head of Nokia Research Center. "With MIT's academic and research expertise, Nokia's mobility and technology leadership, and the fusion of some of the world's brightest minds, the Nokia Research Center Cambridge will provide a platform for delivering compelling new innovations." The center is currently focusing its research on several projects, each part of a larger vision in which mobile devices become elements of an "ecosystem" of information, services, peripherals, sensors and other devices. These projects revolve around enhancing people's lives and productivity by enabling more intuitive interaction between individuals, machines and environments, and range from developing the underlying computer architecture to leveraging and extending the Semantic Web. Eventhough not commercially available today, projects like those under way could likely become real-world applications within the next decade.........

On the one hand, it's the logical progression of paranoia that began with the string and bell, and now extends to the cell phone. Conversely, there is something more to it. It's not just burials - it's also cremation. The "trend" began in Cape Town, where superstition was the reasoning. In Australia, it was an affirmation of wealth. From the BBC: "We came across one guy who asked to be buried with his mobile phone and his Blackberry, and also with his laptop". He added that in a number of cases, being buried with your phone is part of what he termed limelight funerals, people wanting to be buried like celebrities. The phone is put in the coffin along with diamonds, jewellery, expensive suits, and gold watches...... some people are finding they like the idea of being buried with the things that defined them while they were alive. So, are mobile devices truly such a major extension of our perception of the self? What does that say about our culture? Does something so cheap and flimsy, and so widely available, become imbued with this much intangible.........

PHOTO CREDIT: University of Rochester Anyone who uses a cell phone or a WiFi laptop knows the irritation of a dead-battery surprise. But now scientists at the University of Rochester have broken a barrier in wireless chip design that uses a tenth as much battery power as current designs and, better yet, will use much less in emerging wireless devices of the future. Hui Wu, professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Rochester, a pioneer in a circuit design called an "injection locked frequency divider," or ILFD, has solved the last hurdle to making the new method work. Wireless chip manufacturers have been aware of ILFD and its ability to ensure accurate data transfer using much less energy than traditional digital methods, but the technique had two fatal flaws: it could not handle a wide range of frequencies, and could not ensure a fine enough resolution within that range. Wu, together with Ali Hajimiri, associate professor of electrical engineering at California Institute of Technology, surmounted the first problem in 2001, and has now found a solution for the latter. When a cell phone or a laptop using WiFi or Bluetooth communicates wirelessly, the data is transmitted at very specific frequencies. One person can talk on a cell phone at a frequency of 2.0001 gigahertz, and someone else nearby can talk at 2.0002 gigahertz, and neither one will pick up the other's conversation. In order to make sure it is both listening for and sending information on exactly the right frequency at all times, the phone must maintain a very accurate and stable clock, which is generated by a special circuit called "phase-locked loop." This circuit consumes a dramatic portion of the battery usage on wireless devices......... Posted by: Ashley Permalink Source Nokia 2310 Phone
