Android 3.0 Honeycomb features overview


Android Honeycomb is the name for Android version3.0 which is a tablet operating system, designed on an open source platform. The system was developed on a modified version of the Linux kernel. In 2005, Google purchased Android and now it is an important aspect of Google Inc.’s operating systems.
The first operating system was known as 2.0 and 2.1 or Éclair. Following Android Éclair was Android 2.2, also known as Froyo. Following Froyo was Android 2.3 also known as Android GingerBread and now, the Tablet version of Android OS is Android 3.0 Honeycomb. Google is planning a future release of another Android operating system, expected to be released somewhere in the middle of 2011. That operating system will be known as Ice Cream Sandwich.
Android Honeycomb brings a number of new features to Android including a holographic user interface design. Because Android Honeycomb is an operating system it is used in a number of different products such as tablets, netbooks and cell phones. You’ll also find Android Honeycomb in different products ranging from HTC, Dell and Samsung’s Nexus. If Apple users want to use Android Honeycomb they can use an exploit that will let them access Android.
You’ll find that there is a big difference between Android Honeycomb and previous versions as the previous versions weren’t suitable for use with tablet pcs, thus the need to tweak and build upon the Android platform. Android Honeycomb brought a highly detailed and interactive user interface display to large screens. The user interface consists of multi panels, grids with widgets and icons, and is extremely interactive.
The new upgrade makes it easy for tablet users to find their icons and control their applications with a light touch. There are five customizable home screens to ensure that users can have the application they want, when then need it. In fact, you’ll find that Android Honeycomb was specifically designed and tailored for large screens. Users find that Android Honeycomb brings a wide array of visual enhancements such as 3D capabilities and is easy for users to customize as well as navigate.
A feature in the Android Honeycomb that many users find helpful is the system bar that remains in place continuously. The system bar is located at the bottom of the screen but users can dim it using a feature called “lights out mode.” Putting the system bar in lights out mode is effective for those who are watching movies or videos and would rather not see the system bar.
Android Honeycomb has been designed for users who need to multitask and you’ll find that bringing up different applications is easy and simple. The interface has been designed to make switching from one application to another trouble free and simple. A neat feature included with Android Honeycomb, is that users with multi applications up can see a snapshot showing the various applications as they were seen during their last use.
Additionally, Android Honeycomb features a newly designed keyboard that makes typing easy and simple. Unlike keyboards designed for smaller applications, the Android Honeycomb keyboard is perfectly designed for applications using large screens. There are also key combinations that users can apply to access special features. In addition to the new keyboard, Android Honeycomb also features new enhancements for those who need to select, copy and paste text.
One of the best features of Android Honeycomb is the new connectivity options. Users can access media/picture transfer protocol for an easy way to connect their media files with USB storage devices. Other options include connecting keyboards with USB and Bluetooth enabled devices. The ability to connect with Bluetooth expands the options that Android based devices can perform. Android Honeycomb has expanded the capabilities of many mobile and tablet devices to ensure that users can conduct their online activities with ease and convenience.

3 Apps Expected on New 4G Networks


At the International CES in Las Vegas a couple of carriers announced the launch of their 4G networks that users will be gliding onto this year. With the rollout of the faster, next-generation wireless networks users will be experiencing faster and steadier connections than those of the current 3G networks. It is expected that these networks will produce throughput that is ten times faster than that of the 3G networks.
Although the new-generation networks are only expected to cover the majority of the United States by the end of 2012, a large number of users will now begin experiencing the effects of the 4G network which will ensure no more waiting times for web pages to open on computers or smartphones or play high quality videos smoothly.
Network carriers will now also want to get as many users as possible on their new networks and will surely try to attract new clients with unbelievable applications that will fully utilize the speeds of their 4G networks. Well, a number of carriers have already started demonstrating new apps for use on the new networks.
Although these apps are nothing new, they are normal apps that we would use in all households on a daily basis. The apps focus on three categories in particular: HD Video Streaming, Videoconferencing and Online Gaming.
High Definition Video Streaming
Although watching a video on a smartphone with a 3G service is fast, this experience may also be coupled with pixilation, strange movements and sometimes screen freezes. Users may also notice that many videos do not display real high-definition quality on the device. The main reason for this is the fact that 3G services cannot establish a large enough pipe to the end device to deliver a high number of video data packets fast enough. Another problem is the high latency time, which could be around 150 milliseconds.
With the new 4G networks latency times will be much less. It is expected to be as little as 40 milliseconds. This near-instantaneous send and receive between connection and the end device, combined with much higher raw data speeds, could create video images that looks close to real high definition on the smartphone.
Videoconferencing
At the CES we found that the majority of all new smartphones announced, which have been developed specifically for the 4G networks, are equipped with front-facing cameras for videoconferencing purposes. Many of these devices have even moved from 1-megapixel to 2-megapixel cameras.
Videoconferencing is quite different from high definition streaming. Just like HD streaming, videoconferencing requires a certain amount of download speed, which is estimated at around 1MB per second. This will enable the receiver to view real-time movements on the other side of the device. The real problem, however, is upload speed.
Videoconferencing also requires low latency. This service often involve very little time between one person talking and another responding. When latency occurs, users are often talking over each other.
Servers today are configured to provide more download speed than upload speed, which often lead to bottlenecking in substandard videoconferencing sessions. Current 3G networks with its high latency rates often cause problematic videoconferencing.
4G networks are expected to reduce latency by about two-thirds. Although videoconferencing may still not be perfect, it will be much more effective than with today’s technology.
Mobile Gaming
The launch of the 4G networks have created a new possibility for gamers – to play high definition games with friends and family over mobile devices. This technology will likely see the first generation of real-time mobile games that operate on cellular networks.
The fact that 4G networks can deliver more data packets, upstream and downstream, at a more predictable rate and less latency, a new class of games will likely be born in the near future. These networks will be able to accommodate synchronous gaming, where players make quick moves in reaction to the moves of other players.

Toshiba Thrive Goes Up for Pre-Order at J&R


Since Toshiba unveiled its new tablet at the CES back in January, we were left in the dark by the company on the device.

iPhone 5 to Feature a Curved Glass Screen?


According to recent information revealed by DigiTimes, it would appear that Apple may have acquired between 200 and 300 glass-cutting machines, specifically for slicing up curved glass display covers for the iPhone 5.
The rumors still remain unconfirmed as Apple approached the alleged September release date of the new generation iPhone handsets.
According to the rumors, the move has been in an effort to accelerate production, as glass makers were reluctant to buy these machines themselves due to high costs. This may even be yet another indication that Apple may plan an earlier release of the device.
Many people have stated that curved glass is not a good idea for smartphones at this time, and examples of why this should not be used can be seen in Dell’s Venue and HTC’s Sensation.
Well, we should not forget that Apple has been a player in the curved-glass field for some time, making use of their own custom solutions. The company made use of this technology in their iPod Nano screens for some time, which gives them quite some ideas of how the glass can be fitted onto the next generation smartphones.
So, we leave this up to the professionals. Now, if only we can have some word on an official release date of the iPhone 5!
