Google unveils AT&T-compatible Nexus One
On 08, May 2010 | One Comment | In Google | By abcoder
Google’s Nexus One smartphone was unveiled in January for use only on the T-Mobile network. Recently Google announced a Nexus One compatible with AT&T’s 3G network.
Unlike the T-Mobile version of the Nexus One, the AT&T-compatible model isn’t available at a subsidy from the carrier. Customers have to buy the unlocked AT&T-compatible version of the phone.
The AT&T version of the Nexus One is also compatible with the Rogers network in Canada, the same provider that sells the iPhone and, for the first time, Google will ship the device to Canada.
While both T-Mobile and AT&T use GSM-based cell phone standards, the two networks use different frequency bands for their respective 3G traffic. Hence, the T-Mobile-compatible unlocked Nexus One could be used on AT&T, but only at EDGE speeds. Both the T-Mobile and AT&T versions of the Nexus One can be used internationally in most countries.
Symbian has switched to Open-source version of Software
On 09, Feb 2010 | No Comments | In symbian | By abcoder
Symbian software is used on more than 330 million phones around the world. It powers the most smart phones in the world. It is facing new competition in the smart phone arena from Apple Inc.’s iPhone and Google Inc.’s Android system. Between these Android is freely available for anyone to use. Now, the Symbian Foundation planned to release, a large part of the software for free.
This open-source version of the software is known as Symbian 3, and supersedes Series 60. It has now completed the largest-ever conversion of proprietary software to “open source,” which means the source code, or blueprint for the software, is available to anyone.
Symbian foundation was set up in 2008 after Nokia Corp. Nokia decided to give the software away to make it more popular with other manufacturers, a move not uncommon in the technology world.
Analysts say Symbian, which has more than 10 years of development behind it, is starting to look outdated and has lagged in supporting must-have new features like touch screens. This version of software deletes incorrect reference to Series 40, which is still owned by Nokia.
