620x413 s3mini Samsung Galaxy S III Mini was officially released

The presentation of Samsung Galaxy S III left speechless Android fans. The design and the power of the smartphone were outstanding qualities, making it the most successful device of the Korean company. But, at some point, the Asians thought it was a good idea to release a “Mini”.

That intention became a reality with the launch of Galaxy S III Mini , held yesterday afternoon. The phone can be described with one word: unnecessary. As you would imagine, the new smart phone from Samsung has a significant cut of hardware compared to its “big brother”.

The main differences between Galaxy S III and Mini version are clearly visible at several points : display, processor, camera, connectivity, storage and power capacity. The new model is just one more in the midrange catalog of the Korean company. The hardware is not bad , on the contrary, but would have been better spent on another device unrelated to Samsung mobile banner.

  • BB10 Dev Alpha 2 RIM officially unveils BlackBerry OS 10 beta although without definitive terminal

    A quick check on the Internet can be deduced that the expectations of the public to Blackberry 10, the operating system that Canada’s Research in Motion (RIM) has put all her hopes for 2013, are aimed at the computer compete in the second division, below Apple’s iOS , Google Android and the pair level Windows Phone 8 – Nokia with the Lumia 920.

    This scenario looks the most optimistic considering that by the end of this year, analysts expect a drop in equipment sales to 6.9 million units from 7.8 million. So BB10 is presented to developers so hard: they want to start a new generation with more third-party applications that you started with Microsoft with its Windows Phone 7 (an estimated 7000).

    The Blackberry Jam Americas, an event that was held this week in the United States, was the first site to release the candy from a piñata that is still in Beta 3 and it was not shown in a definitive terminal but in one test (called “Alpha B “).

    The conclusions read on sites like The Verge is that it simplifies the most seen in the OS Playbook, the tablet from the company. The interface carries in her womb QNX , a concept that has permeated RIM as specialized software to third parties (for cars) and also intend to license to other companies when they take final shape with BB10.

    At first glance, the video that is the end of this note, looks fluid and mixes several concepts seen in other mobile platforms. The differentiator is in an application called Blackberry Hub that integrates messaging and notifications from social networks in one place (something that is appreciated if we consider aesthetic clutter this involved in BB OS 5 and 7).

    All other elements are split between how you interact with the device and the high support / update the Canadian has with developers (who may work in formats as diverse as C / C + +, HTML5 + Cordova, Adobe Air, QT and Java .

    Timing is what remains to mention that right now (looking at his watch ) plays against the company. Already with Windows Phone 8 will come about with the support of his brother, the famous desktop OS, RIM’s strategy could sprout late and ineffective.

    It is certain that those hours have and that any information that reveals and differentiates it from its competitors, may be vital to keep the almost-crowded mobile phone market.

    Starting today Providers Internet, hardware and corporate web permanently change the IPv6 system, which enable thousands of millions of users have their own IP address. Should be clear that IPv4 will not be deleted, but it will work alongside the more modern protocol.

    One of the main fears of the implementation of IPv6 was the possible collapse of the existing web connections but, so far at least, no problems were detected . Much of the responsibility for the successful introduction of the protocol lies with Google. The Mountain View giant made several test programs and distributed information for the change to occur smoothly.

    not forget that last year was held on World Day for IPv6 and some of major corporations (Facebook, Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, Akamai, etc.) is passed to the new system for 24 hours. The complete transition to Internet Protocol version 6 will take time, and the promoters expect more companies to join the exchange.

    Most users do not have to do anything to enjoy IPv6 , though some need to upgrade the routers in your home or install updates to your operating system to activate. If you want to know if your connection is ready, we recommend this test.

    If you want more information on the Internet Protocol version 6 have to enter this site from Google or in the item in stock Wikipedia. Then I leave a small video explaining:

    Mozilla logo7 official the death of Firefox 3.6

    Firefox 3.6 version is probably the most popular web browser Mozilla Foundation , although a little over a year they changed the system updates and issue 13 is already in development. But there is bad news for fans of the stale version of the browser because developers removed the bracket and soon automatically updated to all Firefox users 12 .

    The decision to “kill “Firefox 3.6 is related to security issues and compatibility with the latest web standards. Still no specific date for the update mandatory but is known to be held in the first part of May, which means that by the end this week is likely that the browser version launched in 2010 is no longer operable.

    still use Firefox 3.6, and have no interest in being passed to Firefox 12, it is possible to circumvent the measure disabling automatic updates from the advanced settings of the application. Have that if they continue using the old edition of the program will no longer receive security patches and remain vulnerable to web threats.

    The action taken by the Mozilla Foundation is understandable since it is difficult to provide good quality products when should maintain current versions can not keep up with the progress of development and protection.
