Does Project Glass represent the next big step in mobile communications?
When Google Glass was unveiled, the tech world instantly fell into two camps. Camp one was excited: we're living in the sci-fi future! Camp two, though, wasn't so happy. It's vapourware! some said, while others worried that Google just wanted to plaster ads on the entire world. Is either camp correct? Let's find out.
What is Google's Project Glass?
Google Glass is the attempt to make wearable computing mainstream, and it's effectively a smart pair of glasses with an integrated heads-up display and a battery hidden inside the frame.
Wearable computing is not a new idea, but Google's enormous bank account and can-do attitude means that Project Glass could well be the first product to do significant numbers.
That's because the prototype Explorer units are becoming an increasingly common site around San Francisco - and Google is even allowing competition 'winners' to pay $1,500 to get these early offerings.
What does Google Glass do?
The core of Google Glass is its tiny prism display which sits not in your eyeline, but a little above it. You can see what is on the display by glancing up. The glasses also have an embedded camera, microphone, GPS and, reportedly, use bone induction to give you sound.
Voice control is used to control the device; you say 'ok glass' to get a range of options including taking pictures, videos, send messages using speech to text, 'hang out' with people or get directions to somewhere. You access these options by saying them out loud.
Most of this functionality is self explanatory; hang out is Google's video conferencing technology and allows you to talk to a people over web cam, and stream them what you are seeing and the directions use Google Maps and the inbuilt GPS to help you find your way.
The results are displayed on the prism - essentially putting data into your view like a head up display (HUD). It's potentially incredibly handy. Also rather nifty is the potential for automatic voice and speech recognition - and Google has given its Glass project a big boost by snapping up specialists DNNresearch.
An FCC filing in the US revealed many potential details, suggesting that Wi-Fi and Bluetooth would be used to send pictures to the screen, whilst bone-induction may be used for sound, vibrating your skull to communicate the sound into your inner ear. It's not a new technology, but certainly does have critics who suggest that it falls short of traditional headphones.
We don't have a lot of the final details on specs just yet - but expect Google Glass to run modified Android, to sport a decent resolution camera with a decent lens and we'd be fairly certain that the microphone needs to be a good quality.
There will be a GPS chip, and the lightweight and flexible glasses design will come in five colours - Charcoal, Tangerine, Shale, Cotton, Sky. That's black, orange, grey, white and blue for anyone that prefers plain English over marketing speak.
The NYT again: according to "several Google employees familiar with the project who asked not to be named," the glasses are expected "to cost around the price of current smartphones." So that's around $750/£500, then, possibly with the help of a hefty Google subsidy.
The latest hints definitely suggest a price that will make them attractive to technophiles.
The developer versions - traditionally more expensive that the final consumer units - were made available for pre-order for $1,500 (c£966).
As to WHERE you can buy the specs; online will be a certainty, but don't rule out Glass making a debut in a all-new Google Store, with the search giant apparently considering actual shops to showcase the tech to those who haven't been following every development.
Who is providing the competition?
Of course, with something as high profile as Google Glass, every major company has been linked with building a competitor.
Apple and Microsoft are Google's most obvious rivals - and both are rumoured to be working on their own equivalents, and Sony has gone as far as to patent a Glass-alike offering.
Is Project Glass evil?
It could be. Google's business is about making money from advertising, and some people worry that Google Glass is its attempt to monetise your eyeballs by blasting you with ads whenever you look at something.
If you think pop-ups are annoying in a web browser, imagine them in front of your face. The ADmented Reality spoof is one of very many parodies that made us laugh.
Some of the parodies actually make a good point by showing people bumping into stuff: heads-up displays can be distracting, and there may be safety issues too. Until Google ships its self-driving car, the thought of drivers being distracted by their glasses is fairly terrifying.
There are privacy implications too. Never mind your web history: Google Glass might record everything you see and do.
There is a red recording light, but the tech certainly raises some key debates that will become more relevant as this kind of technology surfaces. What are the repercussions from having everything you say potentially taped, turned into text and searchable? What are the repercussions for free speech.
All radically new tech brings new potential for evil. But you have to weigh that against the capacity for good and the progress it brings
Google Glass pre-order customers will get regular updates
Those people who paid Google $1,500 for the privilege of pre-ordering some Project Glass specs will be receiving "private updates" through Google+.

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar 26,- Google has picked out 8,000 people who will be given a chance to don a pair of Internet-connected glasses and make a fashion statement likely to be envied by gadget-loving geeks around the world.
The pool selected by Google won a contest conducted last month requiring US residents to submit 50-word applications through Twitter or Google’s Plus to explain how they would use a technology that is being hailed as the next breakthrough in mobile computing.
After sifting through a litany of ideas submitted with the hash tag “ifihadglass,” Google Inc. began notifying the winners Tuesday.
Prevailing in this contest might not seem like much of a victory if you aren’t a technology fan. The winners will have to pay $1,500 apiece if they want a test version of the product, which is called “Google Glass.” They also will have to travel to New York, Los Angeles or the San Francisco Bay area to pick up the device, which isn’t expected to be available on the mass market until late this year or early next year.
But getting a chance to be among the first to experience Google Glass is being treated like a hallowed privilege among the tech set. Some contestants even likened it to winning one of the five golden tickets that entitled children to a lifetime supply of candy and a visit at Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory in the popular movie based on a book by Roald Dahl.
The excitement stems from the belief that Google Glass is at the forefront of a new wave of technology known as “wearable computing.” Google, Apple Inc. and several other companies also are working on Internet-connected wristwatches, according to published reports that have cited anonymous people familiar with the projects.
Google Glass is supposed to perform many of the same tasks as smartphones, except the spectacles respond to voice commands instead of fingers touching a display screen. The glasses are equipped with a hidden camera and tiny display screen attached to a rim above the right eye.
The engineers who have been building Google Glass tout the technology as a way to keep people connected to their email, online social networks and other crucial information without having to frequently gaze down at the small screen on a smartphone. The hidden camera is designed to make it easy for people to take hands-free photos or video of whatever they are doing, whether it be bicycling, running, skiing, skydiving or just playing with friends and family.
Some of the winning entrants identified Tuesday by Google caught the company’s attention by promising to put the camera to good use.
One contest winner promised to take Google Glass to Veteran Administration hospitals so soldiers who fought in World War II can see their memorials before they die. Another plans to wear Google Glass during a trip to Japan so she can take video and pictures that she can share with her grandmother, who now lives in the U.S. but would like to see her native country again. A zookeeper plans to use Google Glass to show what it’s like to feed penguins, and another contest winner wants to use the technology to provide maps that will help firefighters in emergencies.
Privacy watchdogs, though, are already worried that Google Glass will make it even more difficult for people to know when they are on camera.
Google said the test, or “Explorer,” version of Glass will help its engineers get a better understanding of how the technology might be used and make any necessary adjustments before the device hits the mass market.
The company, which is based in Mountain View, Calif., also sold an unspecified number of “Explorer” models to computer programmers last year. The finished product is expected to cost from $700 to $1,500.
SEA-ME-WE 4 (SMW4) submarine cable system pictured.— PTCL Photo
One of the international submarine cable’s (SMW4) has experienced fault in sea waters near Alexandria, Egypt which has impacted internet services in the Far East, Middle East, Pakistan, India and North Africa.
The total length of the SEA-ME-WE 4 (SMW4) submarine cable system is approximately 20,000 km which consists of the main backbone across the Eastern and Western worlds and links 14 countries with 16 landing stations across Europe, Middle East and Asia plus the extension links in various countries.
The international consortium of operators in the region that manages the submarine cable system is proceeding to deploy repair services to restore services at the earliest, said a press release issued here by PTCL on Wednesday.
Meanwhile, PTCL has already undertaken necessary actions to minimize the impact on the services to customers in Pakistan, by making alternate arrangements for internet capacity.
This has been made possible because of PTCL multiple submarine cable systems in Pakistan, added the release.
Customers may experience slow browsing during peak hours and PTCL sincerely regrets this temporary inconvenience caused to valued customers, under the prevalent circumstances, concluded the release.
Samsung Galaxy S4 has released. The Galaxy S 4 is packed with the latest hardware and software features like a 13 megapixel camera, eye tracking technology, and even a way to use the phone without touching the screen. Compared to iPhone 5, it is faster, screen much bigger, has better camera software and more versatile. If you want to buy a new phone, Galaxy S4 will be a great choice! However, today i don't want to talk about how good S4 is, we will focus on how to recover data from Samsung Galaxy S4. Reading here, you may have two questions.
Question 1. It's too early to talk about this problem, isn't it? Answer: We can find lots of question as "It is possible to recover deleted photos?" on the internet.

In order to avoid such thing happen again, it is necessary to remind people who want to own an Samsung Galaxy S4.
Question 2. How do you know the data recovery solution for future Samsung Galaxy S4? Answer: Although Samsung Galaxy S4 is different from other android phone on configuration, they are the same way to save data. Just as we said above, when file is deleted, the deleted file is still there until the space overwritten by new data, that's why we can use the way to recover Samsung galaxy S3, HTC phone, Nokia and other android phone to recover files from Samsung galaxy s4.
Next, we will explore how to perform Samsung Galaxy S4 data recovery. Tenorshare Data Recovery is a trustable and user-friendly tool specially designed for Samsung users, it enables you to directly scan and recover data from Samsung, and you can preview all the lost data before recovery.
Follow 4 simple steps to recover data with data recovery software. STEP- 1. Connect your Samsung galaxy S4 to your computer STEP- 2. Run Tenoreshare Data Recovery software and then you will see the main interface. STEP- 3. Choose your drive to be scanned. Quick Recovery would provide a faster search for recently deleted files. STEP- 4. After the scanning, all result will be displayed. To confirm it, you can choose to preview it and then to decide whether to recover them or not. In the end, just click “Recover” to finish recovery.
Note: the best way to avoid losing important files is backup your data from time to time.

After the rooting tutorial of QMobile Noir A8, here’s a guide on how to root QMobile Noir A6. I don’t own this phone myself so this was not possible for me to test this method. But the results are positive. Here are some details:
QMobile A6 is built upon the MediaTek MT6575 chipset and running Ice Cream Sandwich. It has a 1GHz ARM Cortex CPU, PowerVR SGX 531 GPU and 512MB RAM. The rooting script by bin4ry that I used on Noir A8 works on Noir A6 as well. One reason could be the compatibility because that script is made for devices running ICS and Jelly Bean.
Anyway, here are the steps to root Noir A6:
Download this file. It has the rooting script and drivers. Don’t worry the folder name is Noir A8 but work on A6 too. Extract the archive.
In phone, go to Settings – Development options. Set USB debugging ON.
In settings, go to security -> tick “Unknown Sources”.
Connect the phone with cable to PC. If you don’t have the drivers installed, it will ask for drivers. Manually install them from the folder Noir A8 USB ADB drivers.
Now disconnect cable and turn off your phone. In off state, connect the cable again. Again if you don’t have drivers, it will ask for drivers. Navigate to A8 preloader VCOM folder and install the drivers from there.
Turn on the phone and make sure it is in USB Debugging phone. Connect the cable. Open the folder “Root_script_by_Bin4ry_v15″ and click RunMe.bat. Choose Normal mode and follow the prompts.
You should have a rooted Noir A6. Check for SuperSU app in app drawer and enjoy!
There were quite a few rumors in the wild about the QMobile Noir A10. Much was speculated about its specifications, but now the word has come out straight from the horse’s mouth.
Yes, QMobile Noir A10 is launched officially. It also has 3G (WCDMA) support unlike Noir A8. Also, please note that Noir A10 is a clone of Micromax A110. Check out thispicture if you don’t believe me. Now let’s take a look at what the phone is equipped with and then we will review whether this phone’s really worth the money or not? Is it wise to get A10 rather than Sony Xperia U/Sola or Noir A8? Our comparison should help you decide this.
Noir A10 Price:
The expected price of Noir A10 is going to be between 16,000 Rs. to 18,000 Rs. This is one of the most important factors which will determine A10′s success. Noir A8 was initially priced at 14,500 Rs. but later on bumped to 15,000 Rs. If A10 comes in the market at a price above 17,000 Rs., is it really going to be worth it to purchase rather than Noir A8 or Sony Xperia Sola? Read below after we list the specifications:
Noir A10 – Specifications and Chipset:

Noir A10 vs. Noir A8
As you can see from the specs, Noir A10 is almost the same as Noir A8 in terms of internal hardware. The chipset, MT6577 is the same as well as the CPU. One another disappointing factor is RAM. It again has the same RAM as Noir A8 i.e 512MB.
The Need For Memory
We were expecting at least an increase in the RAM size because QMobile will sell this set at a higher price than Noir A8. But sadly ,it won’t offer any performance improvements over Noir A8 because the primary hardware responsible for running the OS is same!
Noir A10′s Advantages
The areas where it beats Noir A8 is 3G connectivity, camera and screen quality, only. 3G has not yet arrived in Pakistan and it won’t be fully active until middle to late 2013 IF and only IF the 3G license auctions go well in the start of 2013/December 2012. So, this advantage is negligible so far.
Also, as Noir A10 is the clone of Micromax A110, we expect that it will also offer the same GSM bands. That means, you will get only two working GSM bands — 900MHz and 1900Mhz. So this is actually a disadvantage if you want quad-band connectivity and are roaming around the world and can ignore 3G.
Does Screen Size Really Matter?
A10 has a claimed IPS screen of 5inches with 480×854 resolution. Micromax A110 has the same screen with pixel density of 196 ppi. Yes, it is better than Noir A8′s 4.3inch screen but the difference is not much at all! It already has a screen with crisp, bright colors so 0.7 inches difference doesn’t count for anything here.
The Mighty Xperia!
Sony also has a fine series of dual-core Androids — the 2012 Xperia lineup. Sony Xperia U and Xperia Sola are also 1GHz dual core phones with same 512MB memor and, a very active development support. Also, Sony phones are known for their very fine cameras.
Xperia U, however has fixed 8GB internal storage and you can’t place any SD card in it. You can find it for about 17,000 Rs. So, if A10 is priced at around the same price, and 8GB fixed storage does not bother you, get the Xperia U!
Xperia Sola has the same specs like Xperia U but also has SD card support. You can try to find it for around 20,000 Rs. If A10 is priced above 18,000 Rs., you should probably save a little more money and get the Xperia Sola.
Conclusion And Final Thoughts
To be honest, we were expecting a little more from the Noir A10. The disappointing features of A10 are limited 512MB RAM, again the same 4GB ROM, same 1GHz dual core CPU. Even if it had 1GB RAM instead of 512MB, it would have gone way up the Noir A8.
But in its current form, there aren’t many things which make it superior than A8, except the screen size and 3G support. Now it is upto you whether you want to spend more money on it or go for either Noir A8 or Xperia U / Xperia Sola.
There are no shortage of iPhone 4S cases and covers, but there are a limited number of awesome iPhone 4S cases.
These iPhone cases protect the phone and its functionality while looking great doing so.
Kensington BungeeAir Power Wireless
Extend the iPhone 4S’ battery life and never lose keys again.
The Kensington BungeeAir Power Wireless is a great looking battery case for the iPhone 4S that adds in the ability to find keys and receive a warning for when the iPhone is left on a desk or in a cab. There is also a card holder that acts as a kickstand when watching movies.
The Zero Chroma iPhone 4S case adds a rotating kickstand to the iPhone.
The Zero Chroma Teatro-S iPhone case doesn’t add much bulk, but it does add a kickstand to the back of the iPhone. This is the iPhone 4S case I use most often.
The kickstand rotates for FaceTime in portrait mode or watching movies in landscape. It also acts as a mini tripod for filming video with the iPhone 4S.
Case-Mate Phantom iPhone Case
An iPhone 4S case with great protection and good looks.
The Case-Mate Phantom iPhone 4S case protects the iPhone 4S from drops and seals the ports without adding significant bulk.
This case has been the daily driver for my wife for the past 4 months. The Phantom case delivers great protection in a variety of colors at an affordable price.
Speck Candyshell Card for iPhone 4S
Protection from drops and room for 3 cards.
The Speck Candyshell Card for iPhone 4S includes room for three credit cards or folded cash and protects the iPhone from random drops and bumps and thanks to a lip offers some screen protection when placed face down or dropped face first.
The Candyshell Card is available in a number of colors and comes highly recommended.
GelaSkins Hard Case for iPhone 4S
Everything we love about Gelaskins skins in a hardcase.
Gelaskins is best known for great looking customizable skins and licensed artwork that sticks to the iPhone 4S, but now GelaSkins offers hard cases with more protection.
The new GelaSkins hard cases are available with all the same great designs, and with a customizable look that lets users upload custom artwork and photos to truly personalize the iPhone 4S.
Incipio's OffGRID Pro for iPhone 4S
Incipio's OffGRID Pro provides extra battery life for those who need a bit of extra juice when they're on the go. The OffGRID Pro is admittedly heavy (as you'd expect) but the fit is snug and sturdy, and the extra battery only adds a little bulk to the back of your precious iPhone.
The case still gives you full access to all your buttons, ports and camera and if anything, the curved back makes the phone more comfortable to hold. This is hands-down the best battery pack available for the iPhone 4S.
When Windows 8 launches on Oct. 26 2012 the new operating system will looking decidedly different than previous versions of the Windows OS and design changes won’t be the only new features found on the OS. Microsoft is introducing deeper account integration, better hardware support and even increased security standards. While there are sure to be plenty of grumbles thanks to the Metro OS there is also plenty to be excited about.
Microsoft Windows 9 Metro Interface
Windows 8 is the first OS by Microsoft to be fully optimized for touchscreen devices and the Metro interface showcases that touchscreen know-how. The first thing users will notice when they launched the system is a tiled display that showcases various popular and user set applications. Known as “live tiles” the new start screen replaces the Start menu. Users can still access the original desktop output via a tile on the Start screen.
The new interface also incorporates a new menu bar to the right side of the screen which Microsoft has named the “Charms bar” which can be access from within any application or by sliding from the right edge of a touchscreen or compatible trackpad. Using the Charms bar Windows 8 users can perform searches, access sharing features and launch the Start screen among other options.
While some early beta testers have complained about confusing display options the ultimately goal for Microsoft is to create more access to apps at all times.
Microsoft Account Integration
Microsoft controls an impressive array of accounts that includes Xbox Live, SkyDrive and Outlook.com. Using the new Windows 8 system Microsoft users will be able to access all of their major Microsoft services through account integration. Microsoft will also use the opportunity to make available its web office apps as it moves towards its software further into the cloud.
Updated Task Manager
As a heavy Windows user I often find myself shouting at my taskbar to provide me with some relief. In Windows 8 the taskbar is vastly improved. For example a heat map now provides darker shades of coloring based on heavy versus light usage. Microsoft has also split performance tabs into CPU, memory, disk, Ethernet and wireless network sections. By separating processes users can better pinpoint resource usage.
Windows 8′s taskbar also ditches the individual graphsy for every logical processor but now shows data for each NUMA node. The CPU tab also shows simple percentages through heat-mapping tiles to display utilization for systems with many logical processors.
Family Safety
No longer will parents need to install a separate Windows Live application to protect their children online. With Windows 8 Administrators can monitor and restrict user activity based off web filtering, application restrictions and even computer usage time limits.
Those are just a few of the new features coming to Windows 8, stay tuned until the end of October and you will either be thoroughly impressed or sorely disappointed by the massive changes Microsoft has in store for the newest version of its operating system.
