Alles over O2 XDA Flame fries competition | rss feed | toevoegen | e-mail nieuwsalarm | Software Headlines :: Index | 2006-11-22 18:32:32
Let's face it, when the O2 XDA Zinc is placed beside the XDA Flame, the former is positively anemic in comparison. This drool-worthy 3G Pocket PC phone is guaranteed to send chills down any smartphone enthusiast's spine, boasting an unbelievably huge 3.6" QVGA display, a dedicated graphics processor for mobile graphics, the speedy Intel XScale PXA270 520MHz processor which is ably aided by a whooping 2GB worth of ROM. Other features include WiFi connectivity, USB On-The-Go, a 2 megapixel camera, surround sound compatibility, as well as TV-out support. Perhaps things aren't so bad here after all compared to Japan if gizmos on par with the O2 XDA Flame are released more frequently.Source: http://www.uberphones.com/2006/11/windows/o2_xda_flame_fries_competition/ http://www.softwareheadlines.com/modules/planet/view.article.php/68061
Alles over O2 XDA Zinc rumbles along | rss feed | toevoegen | e-mail nieuwsalarm | Software Headlines :: Index | 2006-11-22 18:32:32
Mother always told me to get enough minerals in my diet, but somehow along the way I got mixed up between the tablet supplements and gadgets, ending up with the O2 XDA Zinc instead. It is a mid-range 3G Pocket PC phone that features a blazing fast Intel XScale PXA270 520MHz processor, 64MB RAM, 128MB ROM, built-in WiFi connectivity, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, and a 2 megapixel camera. It is disappointing to note that there is no Bluetooth connectivity included, as that feature is a staple even amongst entry-level handset these days. No word on when the XDA Zinc will be released nor how much it will cost, but remember to take your vitamins and minerals until it is released!Source: http://www.uberphones.com/2006/11/windows/o2_xda_zinc_rumbles_along/ http://www.softwareheadlines.com/modules/planet/view.article.php/68062
Alles over Microsoft .net dev tools CTP released | rss feed | toevoegen | e-mail nieuwsalarm | Software Headlines :: Index | 2006-09-24 15:24:15
Filed under: Developer, Internet, Windows, MicrosoftThe project codenamed "Orcas" is now available for download. The developer tools release is Microsoft's September customer technology preview (CTP) for the .net framework 3.0. You must have the .net framework and September CTP software development kit (SDK), not to mention a non-express version of Visual Studio 2005 already installed to run the tools in this release. At under 4MB (not quite a whale), the development tools include XAML intellisense support, project templates for Windows Presentation Foundation and Windows Communcation Foundation. The dev tools also features the Visual Designer (codename: Cider) for Windows Presentation Foundation, but is sadly not supported by the express editions of Visual Studio 2005. If you understood anything I just said, and it interests you you will be happy to know that it is now ready to be downloaded and I suppose anything else you want to do to it.Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | CommentsSource: http://feeds.downloadsquad.com/~r/weblogsinc/downloadsquad/~3/26603182/ Ryan Carter http://www.softwareheadlines.com/modules/planet/view.article.php/42160
Alles over HTC TyTN and XDA Trion Windows Mobile Phones Available Online Now | rss feed | toevoegen | e-mail nieuwsalarm | Gizmodo | 2006-09-01 00:27:08
The XDA Trion is an OEM version of the HTC TyTN, the 3G, Windows Mobile 5.0 based PDA phone from HTC. Both these models are almost identical, save for the "QWERTZ" instead of "QWERTY" keyboard on the XDA Trion. Other than that, even their prices are the same—$899.
The phones have quad-band GSM, 64MB of storage, and a microSD slot for expandable memory. For connectivity, they support GPRS/EDGE/HSDPA/Bluetooth/802.11b/g compliant. There's also a 2-megapixel phone and a secondary camera on the front for 3G video calls, something that isn't popular yet here in the states. Since it's GSM, you should be able to pick one up at the $899 price, and use it on one of the GSM providers here.
If you've already got a previous generation HTC device such as the T-Mobile MDA or the Verizon XV6700, there may not be a reason to upgrade. The software is the same on all these devices. You're just paying for the 3G support, higher quality camera, much faster processor, and video calling. If you don't need any of that, you can stick with the older model. – Jason Chen

Alles over O2 Xda cosmo Windows Mobile Smartphone aka HTC Excalibur | rss feed | toevoegen | e-mail nieuwsalarm | Software Headlines :: Index | 2006-08-29 06:15:43
The internet is full of picture dropping today! Fellow MVP and Mobian, Arne Hess, drops the first real (non blurry) photos of the HTC Excalibur in the form of the O2 XDA Cosmo. Wonder how long it will take DC to steal this one? For more photos check out the::unwired . The HTC Excalibur hit the net in force with blurry images and computerized mock ups this past month and Arne has unboxed the O2 version. I would expect other GSM carriers to get onboard sooner or later.

Alles over Mac OS X dev asks for input on creating a Flickr client | rss feed | toevoegen | e-mail nieuwsalarm | Software Headlines :: Index | 2006-07-15 21:04:03
Filed under: Software, Internet ToolsWho doesn't love to get their $0.02 in on an app's development? Especially one as potentially handy as this could be: a Mac OS X developer and Flickr user by the name of otusweb is asking for input in a Flickr Group discussion on what users would like to see in a Mac OS X Flickr client. A few users have already requested such features as Aperture support, an iApp-like UI and Mail integration, but it looks like there's still time to get your two cents in, so why not?Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | CommentsSource: http://feeds.tuaw.com/~r/weblogsinc/tuaw/~3/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tuaw.com%2F2006%2F07%2F15%2Fmac-os-x-dev-asks-for-input-on-creating-a-flickr-client%2F David Chartier http://www.softwareheadlines.com/modules/planet/view.article.php/15528
Alles over PS3 dev kit BSOD... sorta | rss feed | toevoegen | e-mail nieuwsalarm | Software Headlines :: Index | 2006-07-15 00:16:16
Filed under: Sony PlayStation 3For the Develop Conference in Brighton, Sony (who was the primary sponsor of the conference) set up a booth equipped with multiple PSP "pods" and a couple of large widescreen LCDs showing PS3 tech demos. One of the demonstrations was a large shoal of different types of fish swimming around a large space, and the other was a 3D water simulation with semi-realistic waves.I spent a few seconds playing with the surprisingly light Dual Shake controller -- my first time, I didn't attend E3 -- and pressed select. For whatever reason, and this is why development kits are generally never shown to the public, the demo slowed to a halt, with the nice blue picture jerking away at 3fps continuously in the frame. In a technical sense this isn't a blue screen of death, but it did die displaying a blue screen, so therefore I proudly claim the title of "world's first non-developer to cause a PlayStation 3 to display a blue screen of death". It's certainly the most pretty pseudo-BSOD that I've ever seen.Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | CommentsSource: http://feeds.joystiq.com/~r/weblogsinc/joystiq/~3/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.joystiq.com%2F2006%2F07%2F14%2Fps3-dev-kit-bsod-sorta%2F Conrad Quilty-Harper http://www.softwareheadlines.com/modules/planet/view.article.php/15433
Alles over O2 Xda Atom Exec Review | rss feed | toevoegen | e-mail nieuwsalarm | Slashdot | 2006-07-05 17:17:52
An anonymous reader writes "CNET has posted a full review of the new O2 Xda Atom Exec smartphone device. They were very impressed with the handheld, giving it their 'Editor's Choice' award. From the article: 'On its own, the Exec is a highly impressive, push e-mail enabled smart phone, but if you already own the first Atom, its upgrade worthiness is questionable.'"
