Motorola KRE8 for music mania

Written by IT News on 3:39 AM

One of the most interesting mobile concepts we have recently encountered is the new Motorola KRE8, a product developed specifically for music lovers. According to its creator, Jose Tomas DeLuna new KRE8 will be able to do what its name implies: allows users to create their own music.

The most interesting feature of the Motorola KRE8 concept is that it can be divided into two parts, each of them to come with a built-in accelerometer that can detect the gestures you make, so that users can create their music. In addition, the device also has three pre-installed modes: Mode Instrument Recording mode and mixing mode.

Motorola KRE8 also has a touch screen display, and with 3G, GPS and a wide range of musical elements. Users can activate the feature by including a touch-screen laptop, which also provides control over it. The accelerometers allow for each piece of equipment that is used to simulate the different instruments.

In addition to enabling users to create their own music, Motorola KRE8 also feature wireless so that the contents could be shared with others on a wireless network. Users can send files to other MIDI devices or broadcast so others can enjoy them. In addition, the phone also offers the opportunity to GPS tagging file.

It is unclear whether the proposal will actually become a reality in the near future, but we do not agree that it sounds like a bad idea, even if there is anything "strange. But we have seen other strange concept as before, so this is not a single event. In addition, the device does not seem too bad, so it can attract a broad spectrum of users, after all.

According to the latest news on the Web, the HTC Magic (G2) android phone, recently presented at the Mobile World Congress, held in Barcelona last week was seen at the FCC, where it should be tested to see whether to go on sale in the U.S. market.

Interestingly, however, the fact that the device is not related to the functioning of AWS 1700MHz frequency used by T-Mobile with its 3G network.

Lack of this feature may suggest that the Magic are not HTC T-Mobile, like its predecessor, but this can only be one vote, after all. The portable anticipated first head of mobile operator in the U.S., but it has no official word on the matter.

For now, the only thing that is certain is that the other device powered by Google android operating system, HTC Magic, going on sale in Europe with Vodafone, and that it should reach the market in the spring of ongoing. At the same time, the device is also to go to Australia with Telstra Mobile.

As previously mentioned, the device came to the FCC without AWS 1700MHz does not necessarily mean that it is not added to T-Mobile offers. We may soon learn that the FCC has had to test a new version of the product, which should include the frequency.

For what it's worth, regardless of carrier, the big news is that the product is intended for users in the U.S. and, more importantly, that in the not so distant future.

Nokia N97: Not all supported Skype

Written by IT News on 2:50 AM

Earlier this month at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Skype and Nokia announced that the popular software would be embedded in mobile phone maker's products, starting with the N97 phone, which is expected to reach the market sometime in June.

Unfortunately it seems that the store has seen some resistance from wireless operators and the planned integration cannot go as smoothly as expected. O2 and Orange have been reported this week to be quite "furious" about Nokia's decision to integrate the software into its new high-end N97 smartphone.

According to the news, operators may refuse to put the company's products incorporate software that enables users to make free calls over the Internet while using a data connection. At the same time, they can only agree with the give-phones that do not include Skype, the Mobile Today website says. On the other hand, some of the carriers seem to agree with that. T-Mobile is one of those players, and 3, a British one, which already has been added to its layout, which includes Skype phones.

The deal between Nokia and Skype are offering software built into the N97 address book, which would make it possible for users to see when Skype contacts are online. At the same time, they will be able to employ the popular IM client. The software is also required to offer them the opportunity to make free and cheap phone calls over the Internet, regardless of whether they use a 3G mobile network or a Wi-Fi one.

Some of the mobile operators such as O2 and Orange, seem to think that Skype would actually reduce voice traffic and weaken their relations with customers. Nokia has not commented on news that the carriers have complained about software, but a spokesman for the company has explained that the Skype feature is not able to present some of the N97 mobile phones.

"At Mobile World Congress, we announced that Skype would be available on a limited number of N-series devices, starting with the N97, spokesman has shared." But it's possible it will not be on each N97."
