The Apple iPhone is an “iWitness” For The Police

Image
In the fight against crime, law enforcement officials have used technology as a means of getting a one up on criminals. Police have relied on phone records as a means of tracking activity as they recreate the events leading up to a crime and with smartphones, police have even more digital data including email messages and text messages that can be used to solve crimes. There is now an area of forensic study that focuses just on the Apple iPhone and using its data ( GPS information , GEO tagged pictures, browser history, screenshots of opened maps) in solving crimes. Part of the reason why this data is so valuable is because “very few people” know how to effectively erase data from their smartphone. Of the major phone players, the iPhone is said to be one of the easier ones from which to extract information from. The RIM BlackBerry is on the other side of the spectrum and it’s believed that Android phones will lend themselves to a forensic investigation.

Crazy Mockups: Touch Nano and iWatch

Image
So there was this leak on a Taiwanese Apple site that looked very much like a 3cm x 3cm touchscreen for some sort of Mac. What exactly will the part be for? No one can agree on the final product but here are a couple of mockups some artistic fans cooked up. The one on the left is an iWatch. It definitely goes against the Apple’s artistic sensibilities though to make a gaudy and bulky watch with a touchscreen. The more likely candidate is the one at the right, a  small MP3 player  like the iPod Shuffle that has a touchscreen interface. Another speculation is that it will be for the upcoming MacBook Pro. A touchscreen pad for mouse control would be great but is it really necessary? Let’s just sit tight and wait for Apple’s true motives behind this mini touchscreen, shall we?

Google Voice

Image
Google has scrapped plans for a Google Voice  Voice Over IP  (VoIP) desktop client, much to the disappointment of many users. This announcement has also resulted in one user starting an online petition to see if Google will reconsider their decision to release a VoIP client. Google has elected against releasing a thick client because plans are underway to have a browser based client available. So far, the website giveusgvdesktop.com has collected 1,663 virtual signatures. The site still has a long ways to go to reach its stated goal of 500,000 signatures which it hopes will be sufficient to show the popularity of a desktop client. The Google Voice VoIP application offers an alternative to another popular VoIP service, Skype, which boasts a user base of 500 million.

Zemno Desk Book Pro

Image
Sometimes it can be a big challenge to decide which way to go, laptop or desktop? Both have their advantages. Desktops with the extra ports for connectivity and the generally larger screen display or a laptop that offers a good portable solution but with fewer ports. If you do go the portable route, you can always consider the Zemno Desktop Pro notebook dock that supports both PC and a 15-inch MacBook. It’ll offer up a number of extra ports and even lets you slide in a battery or extra hard drive. The biggest challenge about this device would have to be the sticker price of $600, which is rather expensive. A full run down of the specs are available below.

HTC EVO 4G gets Wireless N

Image
HTC EVO 4G gets Wireless N he HTC EVO 4G has a wireless chip inside capable of 802.11n. However, for some reason a software change limits it to slower wireless speeds. The guys at XDA developers have again been busy and managed to create an update that re-enables 802.11n on the HTC EVO. To run the code change you need to download a HEX editor and make changes to a certain file. When editing the file, all it takes is a few character changes and a save and re-upload to the phone. Before you make any changes to a smartphone you need take a read over the instructions and make sure you have anything in order. This particular change appears to be relatively simple although we still recommend making the correct backups and proceeding with caution. Source : XCITEZONE

HTC Wildfire Available in the UK on Vodafone

Image
HTC Wildfire Available in the UK on Vodafone The HTC Wildfire is now available in the UK on the Vodafone network. Vodafone is the first network to offer the phone which is ready for ordering today. Price wise you can pick one up for free on just a £20/month contract. This is a 24 month contract and you do get a decent amount of minutes, text and data as well. With this particular plan you get 300 minutes, unlimited texts and 500MB of data. The £25 and £30/month contracts also of course have the phone for free, but the more you pay for the plan, the more free minutes you get. Data however, stays restricted to 500MB. The 18 month contracts are practically the same as the 24 month plans with the HTC Wildfire being free on the cheapest plan although the cheapest plan is £25/month rather than £20/month. Basically you add an extra £5/month to drop to an 18 month tariff. As for PAYG plans, currently there are none for the HTC Wildfire on the Vodafone network. Overall, some pretty good prices
