Autom, the robot weight loss coach: we’ll just keep the friends that lie to us, thanks

Category: Industry Happeningsadmin @ 1:17 pm

Autom is a tiny robot, and he’s getting closer than ever to availability. His whole job? To coach you to lose weight… that’s right, Autom is a dieting robot. You start off by entering the details of your diet, fitness level, and exercise into Autom’s databank, and then he sits on your countertop and has daily ‘conversations’ with you — which we assume are full of a lot of reassuring aphorisms and ‘go get ‘em’ talk. Developed by Cory Kidd (who built the first iteration by hand) while studying at MIT, Autom is set to go into trials in the US sometime next year with a major insurance company. Now, we’re all for healthy living, and everyone knows we love robots, but we’re inclined to take a pass on Autom… if only because we can’t stand to hear the truth 100 percent of the time. If you hit up the source link, you can see a video of the little guy in action. A video of an earlier version of Autom is after the break.

AT&T users can keep $30 unlimited data when upgrading phones… unless they want tethering

Category: Industry Happeningsadmin @ 1:18 pm

There’s naturally been a ton of feedback in the past few hours on AT&T’s new data pricing strategy, and the company has been responding to comments all morning over on its Facebook page; one of the key tidbits that’s come out of the discussion so far is that folks on the current $30 smartphone data plan will be able to keep that plan when upgrading hardware. Translation: yes, you’ll be able to get a new iPhone without switching to the $25 / 2GB DataPro plan if you so choose. What you won’t be able to do, though, is keep the $30 plan and add on the $20 tethering option — tethering specifically requires DataPro, so your hopes and dreams of a soft 5GB cap are quashed (unless you want to pay $30 for 3GB of overage, of course).

On a related note, we’ve been tipped that some folks’ iPad orders from Apple have been pushed back to June 7 — an interesting coincidence, considering that’s when DataPlus and DataPro go live. If true, it’s likely so that Apple can pre-install new orders with updated software for managing the new plans, but it’s also a preemptive strike against a horde of people trying to grandfather into the $30 plan over the next few days.

[Thanks, John and Aaron]

Nokia teases ‘everyone connect,’ keep your hands to yourselves until then

Category: Industry Happeningsadmin @ 8:18 am

No idea what this is but the Twitterverse has an inkling that we’ll see Ovi Maps integrated with Nokia Messaging. Jury’s still out on hardware like, say, the N8-00 — though as the rumored flagship S^3 device we’d expect its reveal to be a bit more formal than a countdown.

Nokia N82 Mobile Phone Review – Worth Your Keep?

Category: Memory Cardsadmin @ 8:53 am


The Nokia N82 mobile phone is one of the best multimedia smart-phones in the market today – and the most affordable of the N series. Although the Nokia N82 itself is bulky with the measurements of 112 x 50. 2 x 17. 3 mm and weighs of 114g – it is smaller than the N95 8GB and if you can take the thick frames and tiny sized keys aside – it is quite a stylish looking phone. Here’s a brief description of the Nokia N82 mobile phone -
Good sized screen at 2. 4″ offering a 240 x 320 pixel resolution Matte-finished stainless steel on the front and sides Beige plastic back with a subtle herringbone patterning A relatively big camera module Micro SD card slot on the side of the phone At the top of the Nokia N82 headset, there is 3. 5mm headphone portWith the good sized screen, this Nokia N82 model has a great automatic screen rotation which can switch to landscape view smoothly – which makes Nokia N82 5 mega-pixel camera and Xenon flash superb . . . and coupled with Carl Zeiss optics and auto-focus, the N82’s camera is one of the best in its class. As well, with access to the N Series features like N Cage games, Nokia music player, Nokia Maps and so on – there’s plenty to like about this phone. The drawbacks to this Nokia N82 mobile phone are the battery life and phone design. It is concerning that it is only slightly better than the power hungry N95 models. With moderate use, the battery life stands at only 1 to 1. 5 days worth. And if you are into the GPS mapping and Wi-Fi use, you could be charging your battery daily. Overall, the Nokia N82 mobile phone is value for money as it one of the best in the N series. But, if you’re not into more usable buttons and slimmer streamlined phones that will not make a bulge in your pockets – than this is not for you. The Nokia N82 will suit users who wants the full featured handset of the N series features and performance over the design.

Keep Your Cell Phone Handy With the clip of "Smart"

Category: Belt Clip Holstersadmin @ 12:26 am

Ah, cell phone, how many times have I lost? Let me count the ways. . . As mobile phones become smaller, more manageable, but also ashamed of how much easier to lose. How many times have found fumbling through her purse to get to your cell phone before they clicked on to voice mail – or worse, as fast as possible because you forgot to put it to vibrate the silence? These are just two of the cases where the smart clip, cell phone holder has spared the shame and frustration. Who should be a smart clip? What about those people? I keep my phone in my back pocket jeans. Above all is the safest place to keep it, but I have my third phone this year when I did my back pocket fell into the toilet. Regard! – John, 22, MA I tried to call my son in his cell several times a day, but went straight to his voicemail. When I finally reached him, said his cell was like the front pocket of his backpack in the car of a friend. During the time, he recognized the cell, the friend was on his way to Virginia for a week – with the mobile phone in the passenger seat in the car. Would like a Smart Clip then! I took my grandchildren to the movies one afternoon. After leaving the theater, I took my cell phone to call home and my husband, I was on the road – just say it was missing. We searched the theater and parking up and down before leaving in defeat after an hour. When we left the parking lot, suddenly the phone rang. It turned out the front pocket of my wallet slipped and fell into the map pocket in the driver's side door. If I had a smart clip, I would have saved an hour of frustration, had to spend more time with my grandchildren. The Smart-Clip is a very clever little device that promises to keep mobile – no matter what make or model of mobile phone use. Candy bar phones, flip phones or slider working well with the smart clip. Nokia, Motorola, Kyocera, Apple, LG – it's all the same with the Smart-Clip, because there is nothing to adjust. The idea behind the smart clip is so simple, it's great. Instead of a loop to slide the seat over the phone or in a pocket for your cell phone using smart clip 3M adhesive strip of a flexible hanger measured at the rear of the cell. Once connected, you can easily rotate the hook to slide through a belt or purse strap, hanging around the strap of your purse or backpack, or attach to a keychain. Unlike holster that can clip to your belt or pocket, the smart clip can hang the cell freely, so do not touch and deepen itself. Handytasche can rotate completely on its head, move the dumping your expensive mobile phone on the floor when you are. The clever clip design does not allow. It is connected to your belt or wherever you hang up circuit is activated pendants and free spin. The makers of the Smart Clip choose 3M adhesive for its superior ability to use. Once connected and adjusted, with support up to 8 kg smart clip without pulling the phone – and the manufacturer can prove that infomercial in which a hook of a bowling ball Dropped 8 lbs. The smart clip will with two additional features that make it even more practical too. The clip contains a powerful LED flashlight, so that not only your phone is always at hand, like a light. No more awkward to reach the keys in your wallet, if your door. To activate the cell strap your belt or purse and click on the light inside the bag to light up the basement stairs or anything else that you see for your safety. The second cousin, with the smart clip is activated adhesive hook is the right size to hang up the phone. Stick on your car dashboard, so I hang up the phone for easy hands can speak freely. Paste it into the wall through an outlet, so you connect without taking up floor or cargo space easily. Of course, the universal clip fits most stylish mobile phones. You can use it to your MP3 player iPod or another, your PDA – including your computer. You can clip small wooden device that just came to have a place.
