Free software update for Kindle
Amazon has decided to launch a new update for the latest generation of 3G Kindle and Kindle e-readers, and thus offer a range of new features that users have been asking for.
The update has not been deployed around the world still, but is available as a manual update can be downloaded from the Page Preview Release early. The update is listed as version 3.1
Before deciding, however, take a look at what the update includes the following:
Real page numbers
While many people use a Kindle in isolation, others like to read a book with a paper or PDF copy, or talk about a book with others who are reading a paper version. One problem with this is that the Kindle does not currently show the real numbers page. By this we mean the page is the Kindle version of a book does not refer to the page number in the printed version. Read the rest of this entry »

Galaxy Nexus vs iPhone 4S
After all these months of hearing about “iPhone 5″ and “Nexus first” real devices have finally shown their faces in public. Of course, phones that we are called iPhone 4S and the Galaxy Nexus. Both are devices showcase the latest firmware updates for their respective platforms. If you’re looking at an upgrade, and wondered what are the technical specifications of the two devices to compare, side by side we have the technical specifications in the major categories.
The specifications alone do not define the greatness of a device, but it may help to have an initial idea of what their abilities can give.
The Nexus Galaxy has a curved screen, similar to the Nexus S as before. The iPhone 4S, meanwhile, has exactly the same rectangular glass and aluminum design of the iPhone 4.
The Nexus Galaxy is higher and wider (due to the screen much larger) than the iPhone, but it is a generally little thinner (8.84mm to 9.3 mm). Although at its thickest point, 11.4mm, Samsung phone is a bit thicker than the iPhone.
The iPhone has the circular start button which is common in all IOS devices, while the Galaxy Nexus has no physical buttons on the front panel (you opt for on-screen menu buttons). The iPhone 4S comes in black or white, while the Galaxy Nexus has the outline of a black and dark gray. Read the rest of this entry »
The courts give the reason Apple
Like a last request of the great Steve Jobs is involved, the dispute remains the company Apple with Samsung about the Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet appears that seem likely to be resolved in the near future. Although now begin the shift of resources and appeals, Apple is ahead of time as a Sydney judge has forbidden Samsung to sell their tablet.
It all started when Apple sued Samsung as they felt that the Galaxy was a copy of your iPad. And is that lately seems to always deal with daily news about technology: Steve Jobs, BlackBerry, Galaxy, iPad, everyday words and names begin to be more familiar. Hour after hour, a person enters the world of technology to improve your relationships, work and even play games such as slots that flood the network.
At the moment the extent permitted by the judge’s injunction, and thus the prohibition of Samsung tablet is also marketing its temporary pending a final decision. The foundation has argued that the judge is that the damage that will make Apple the inability to sell the Galaxy, will be less than the Apple consequences for the permissibility of its sale.
The judge has said that will be quick to give a final solution, however, still, is expected to take several months.
The first step in the eternal battery
In the rush to develop alternative energies in seeking greater sustainability, a group of Australian researchers have begun to develop a revolutionary system that allows electronic devices to auto-charge while you type over them.
At the Royal Melbourne Institute of techonolgy, a group of scientists took the first steps toward creating what they themselves have called “eternal battery”.
Through the technology of piezoelectricity , a quality that allows some material purchase electricity when subjected to mechanical forces, keys laptops or mobile phones could be used to charge their own batteries. The energy in each pulse is exerted on the keyboard can be thus transformed into electrical energy powering the device battery with a thin film under the keyboard of this.
The future application of this technology will not only enable teams to develop infinitely more efficient energy but also an almost unlimited autonomy.
The results of this study were published on 21 June in the journal Advanced Functional Materials specialist. Dr. Madhu Bhaskaran, co-author of the research, said the technology could “even be used to convert blood pressure power source for pacemakers.” This technology, as you can see, very broad possibilities for its application because its developers, as Dr. Bhaskaran own states, are essentially creating the eternal battery.

For natural disasters and emergencies: 5 iPhone applications
The owners of an iPhone know that it is a most ingenious inventions of all time. Now the mobile Apple offers more and better applications in its origins, and some very recent, are 5, which will serve only in dangerous situations.
They are:
- Buddy Guard : This application is very simple, just press the large button and your camera will begin taking pictures every 10 seconds, the sounds will be recorded and stored permanently on your position coordinates via GPS every 3 seconds. Every 30 seconds, all data is sent to a storage system, and a link to this information can be disseminated to a list of emergency contacts.
- Emergency Radio, the most important tool in an emergency is the ability to receive real time information. This application gives you access to live events from the police, fire brigade.
- Disaster Caster : tell your friends or family what you do an earthquake, tornado, etc..
- First Aid & CPR Pocket : If someone need first aid, this application will provide the information needed, whether you’re the injured party or someone close to you.
- Close Call : We will create a wallpaper with a phone number and information in case something happens to us. Ideally, put the number of a family and our personal data.
