Excellent Growth of Smartphones in the market.
Smartphones stood first in the overall market for mobile phones.Before smartphones, people used their mobile phone to make a call to a particular phone number, to answer the call and to store the phone numbers and customer service numbers. Smart phones changed that by acting as an all in one device that is why smartphones are significantly growing day by day. Experts predictions says that CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of 24.9% for the period 2011-17to reach 1.7 billion units. Android and Apple’s iOS are going to play the most important role in smartphones market. However, together their share will reach to 75% in 2017.

New iPhone may come with a new look
Apple announced WWDC (Worldwide developer’s conference) which led to lot of rumors about the new device. The upcoming version of iPhone may look different. The new iPhone may be longer and thinner than previous models. Based on the naming structure of recently launched iPad, everyone is expecting the similar change in the naming of iPhone. The new iPhone can be named as just “new iPhone” instead of iPhone 5.  There are also rumors that Apple is going to release low cost iPhone “nano” this year.

Samsung is emerging as No.1 
Samsung is emerging as No.1 in the world of smartphones taking over the lead from Apple. The greatest advantage of Samsung is that it is having different sizes. Samsung is having more than 13 different sizes ranging from 2.8 inches replenish to 5.3 inches the Galaxy note while Apple is offering only a 3.5 inch display on two of  its iPhones. Samsung releases number of models every year with a hope that one or more may hit. Apple always believes in limited number of models. Samsung also took over the lead from Nokia, the world’s biggest maker of all kinds of phones from a period of 14 years.

Nokia’s latest and upcoming smartphones
·         Nokia 700  is a slim, smart and a speedy device with atouchscreen ofsize 3.2 inches, 5 mega pixel camera, 47h maximum music playback time and 6.9 h of maximum video playback time
·         Nokia 701 is a fast and colorful smart phone with a touch screen of size 3.5 inches clear black LCD display, dual flash camera with 8MP EODF,71.4 h maximum music play back time and 8.9 maximum video playback time
·         Nokia Lumia 800 comes with curved 3.7 inch AMOLED clear black glass touch screen, Carl Zeiss Optics, 2x LED flash HD video camera of 8MP Auto Focus.

New Fiber Optics Technology to Speed Up Internet 100 times

It may look like a piece of gel but it's a new nano-based telecom technology "enabler" that can make computers and the Internet hundreds of times faster.
The technology, that may be in use only five or 10 years in the future, is being designed by Koby Scheuer of Tel Aviv University's (TAU) School of Electrical Engineering.
Scheuer has developed a new plastic-based technology for the nano-photonics market, which manufactures optical devices and components. His plastic-based "filter" is made from nanometre (a billionth of a metre) sized grooves embedded into the plastic.
When used in fibre optics cable switches, this new device will make our communication devices smaller, more flexible and more powerful, he says.


"Once Americans have a fibre optics cable coming into every home, all communication will go through it - telephone, cable TV, the Internet. But to avoid bottlenecks of information, we need to separate the information coming through into different channels. Our polymeric devices can do that in the optical domain - at a speed, quality and cost that the semi-conductor industry can't even imagine. Right now, we could transmit all of the written text of the world though a single fibre in a fibre optics cable in just a few seconds. But in order to handle these massive amounts of communication data, we need filters to make sense of the incoming information. Ours uses a plastic-based switch, replacing hard-to-fabricate and expensive semi-conductors.Our plastic polymer switches come in an easy-to-work-with liquid solution. Using a method called 'stamping,' almost any lab can make optical devices out of the silicon rubber mould we've developed." says Scheuer.


In the next decade, fibre optic cables that now run from city to city will feed directly into every individual home. When that technology comes to light, the new plastic-based switches could revolutionise the way we communicate. Semi-conductors, grown on crystals in sterile labs and processed in special ovens, take days and sometimes months to manufacture. They are delicate and inflexible as well, Scheuer explains. His biggest hurdle, says Scheuer, is in convincing the communications industry that polymers are stable materials.

iPad sales touch 1-million mark

Apple has announced that it has sold a million iPads ever, since the tablet computer was launched on April 3 this year.
"One million iPads in 28 days - that's less than half of the 74 days it took for the iPhone to achieve this milestone," Apple's CEO Steve Jobs said, adding that the millionth iPad was sold on April 30.


iPad users have already downloaded over 12 million Apps from the App Store and over 1. 5 million ebooks from its new iBookstore.


"Demand continues to exceed supply, and we are working hard to put this magical product into the hands of even more customers," Jobs said.


The 0.5-inch tablet computer, which weighs 1.5 pounds, enables users to browse the web, read and send email, watch HD videos, listen to music and read ebooks through its multi-touch user interface.
