Nokia and Intel combine to produce AVA smartphone.

Ripul Kumar — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 03:36:37 +0000

This is a product of Nokia and Intel partnership and would soon hit the stores . AVA smartphone would have the Intel Moorestown CPU, which is being implemented in a smartphone for the first time. It would also have Nokia’s latest operating system MeeGo.

So this phone would prove out as a test for both of these major players.

Would that give any competition to their rival Apple?

I dont think so, what do you say?

Pico Projectors on Cell phones!

Ripul Kumar — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 08:39:28 +0000

Well, this is highly debatable whether pico projectors are the next big thing in the cell phone market. One thing that I know is that they would be one of the coolest features which I would like my cell phone to have. The only disadvantage I see of a cell phone is that it is a gadget and cannot function as a full big screen television, but PICO Projector would solve this problem only if image quality can be increased . Televisions are bulky costly and whole lot of burden , on your pockets as well as its not a gadget. This is what reuters article says:

“While commercial products with so-called pico projectors are still relatively rare, Microvision and rivals such as Texas Instruments Inc and 3M Co were promising strong prospects for pico at the Las Vegas show which ends on Sunday.

Microvision showed off a stand-alone projector that looked like a big bar of soap and projected crisp video images using laser technology.

Its big hope is to embed the technology in a range of consumer electronics including cameras and phones.”

After high quality camera’s I think this should mark the trend.
