Apple MacBook Air: The King of Ultra-Thin Notebook

A report from J.P. Morgan shows that the market of Ultra-thin notebook reserves big profit margins. Many producers, including Acer, HP and Sony, are getting involved in the field of Ultra-thin notebook. However, Apple's MacBook Air will still be the kind of Ultra-thin notebook for a very long time.

Although the competition of Ultra-thin notebook market is getting heating up day after day, but the cost of this kind of note book is still a big problem for producers. So far, most of the Ultra-thin notebook's price is more than $1000, only few of them is around $900. The price is still too high for most of the customers. In fact, MacBook Air's price is also expensive. According to the different models and configuration, its price is between $999 to $1599. Some analysts said, it receives much more attention than other competitors because its superiority in functions and specification and it comes out much earier than others. In contrast, other producer's Ultra-thin notebook are available in the market much later than MacBook Air and do not have superiority in functions and price. So it is really difficult for them to shake the market share of Apple MacBook Air.

Analysts also point out that, as MacBook Air's strong growth, in the next 12 months, its sales will reach over $7 billion, and sell 1.6 million for each quarter. If this come true, Apple will thank China's market. In the third quarter, MacBook's sale in China rise 339% than the same period of last year. And it will rise in the future.

For now, in the sales of MacBook Air around the world, USA and EMEA takes 73.9% and some new markets' share is rising constantly. Analyst said as the price is still high for most of the customers, now some new markets is not the main increase of MacBook Air's sales, but after the price is going lower, this will change. In addition, as iPhone and iPad is fast occupying the new market around the planet and Apple's affect will become a nice halo effect, Apple's system will be much more perfect than now. All the things above is a good news for the sales on MacBook Air.

Apple MacBook Air comes at the right time when people are getting tired with giant laptop. When you hear about it, you just fall in love with it without any hesitation. MacBook Air 2011 makes itself more fast and more powerful. 4GB of DDR3 memory is found on all but the base 11-inch model, which gets by with half that. SSDs are standard across the board, starting at 64GB for the 11 and going up to 256GB for the top-shelf 13-inch. Intel HD 3000 graphics power the lot and stock processors include 1.6GHz and 1.7GHz Core i5's, though a 1.8GHz Core i7 is available for $100 more. When it comes to displays nothing has changed: the 13-inch model features a 1440 x 900 glossy, LED-backlit panel while the 11 still does 1366 x 768. We spent our time testing the 13-inches and, as before, it continues to impress when it comes to contrast, brightness, and viewing angles, which are plenty wide enough to enable two-person, coach-class viewing of that latest episode of Top Gear. Contrast is helped by the glossy sheen here -- and no, you still can't option out a matte unit.

For Reasons for Apple to Launch The 7.85 inch iPad

On this Friday, there was a rumor from Apple supply chain that Apple will launch the 7.85 inch Tablet PC in late 2012. The technology blog GigaOm make a analysis why Apple should promote the small dimension Tablet PC.


Imaginary 7 inch iPad
Athough Apple is leading the Consumer Tablet PC market, and sales of iPad are far above Android Tablet PC, there are still four reasons why Aplle should launch the smaller screen Tablet PC.

First, Smaller Tablet PC is more portable

The smaller size tablet PC with higher frequency of ultilization, can be used in more situations. For example, the Samsung 7 inch Galaxy Tab tablet PC can be carried with you, but iPad is inconvenient in carrying. When the users sit in the yard, or go to Starbucks, iPad can well meet your needs. But in the process of moving, 7 inch flat panel computer is more convenient. The tablet can be packed in your pants or jacket pocket, but iPad can't. Smaller size also makes weight lighter.

Second, Outstanding 7 inch Tablet PC has already been available

Although 7 inch Galaxy Tab brings much convenience, there are still some disadvantages compared with iPad. However, some better 7 inch Tablet PCs have been available such as bookstore Nook tablet PC and Amazon's Kindle Fire tablet PC. The two products are very popular in this Christmas season. Portability is one of advantages, but more important is the lower price. These 7 inch flat panel computers sell for $199 to $249. Although these tablets can only provide 80% functions of iPad, the price occupies only 40% of it. Maybe Aplle will not throw away the market to Bookstore and Amazon manufactures.

Third, iPod Touch has been less attractive than ever

Some people think that since iPod Tough exists, there is no necessary for Apple to launch the smaller iPad, but this is just one of the reasons that Apple should launch the smaller iPad. As Apple communicates with more and more Operators, consumers are purchasing iPhone more, leading the iPod Touch sales gradually slide down. Some Android mobile phone users may purchase iPod Touch as a supplement, but iPhone users will not do so. Recently, the investment put into iPod Touch is less and less, among the product line update items only increases the white version. This suggests that, as one product line, iPod Touch is gradually towards the end.

Fourth, Price of the smaller iPad can be reduced to the level of iPod Touch

If Apple eventually gave up iPod Touch, it will be lack of products whose price is from 199 to 399 dollars. Apple can launch the small size iPad, whose price is $199, to compete with Kindle Fire. Similar to iPod Touch and the current iPad, the $199 iPad can be the product of WiFi version unrelated to operators, and with 3G module version, the price will be improved. To those consumers, who wish to obtain iPad experience and think price of $499 is too high, 199 to $399 products will meet their needs. Industry insiders guess that, the price of smaller size iPad may be associated with iPod Touch, while the larger storage capacity will have the higher price. Although the launch of small size iPad is appropriate, it does not mean that the current 10 inch iPad is not good. However, the small size iPad has a living space. The best opportunity for Apple to launch the small size iPad will be in September, 2012, the traditional iPod conference. This will help Apple develop better the next Christmas market.

Carrier IQ Meets with FCC and FTC, Explaining Privacy Concerns

Carrier IQ, the embattled phone-monitoring software maker, sought meetings with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to educate the two agencies about the functionality of its software and answer any and all questions this week. Although Congressman Markey has asked the FTC to investigate the practices of Carrier IQ, we are not aware of an official investigation into Carrier IQ at this time.

The Federal Trade Commission is the US organization that protects consumer privacy and enforces privacy-related laws, and would be Carrier IQ’s primary foe if an investigation is undertaken. “Consumers and families need to understand who is siphoning off and storing their personal information every time they use their smart phone,” Markey said. “I am asking the Federal Trade Commission to investigate this practice, and I will continue to monitor this important privacy issue.”

However, the FTC did not immediately respond to a request for information, the agency does not generally reveal the subjects of its investigations unless the company at issue makes it public. For those who need a refresher, Carrier IQ made headlines in recent weeks after a researcher, Trevor Eckhart, suggested that the technology is secretly embedded on many popular phones and can gather personal data about users. Carrier IQ said its technology is used for diagnostic purposes and denied logging keystrokes or being able to read the content of emails, text messages, or Web sites.

Lawsuits have been filed against Carrier IQ and some carriers, while lawmakers are peppering Carrier IQ with questions and asking the FTC to investigate - which looks like it just may be happening. The public backlash has been fast and furious, in part fueled by the company's reaction to the initial report - Carrier IQ served a cease-and-desist order on Eckhart. The company eventually backed down after the Electronic Frontier Foundation got involved on Eckhart's behalf, but the damage was done as the move made it seem like Carrier IQ was trying to censor a whistleblower and had something to hide.

More recently, there were reports that the FBI was using Carrier IQ software. A blogger filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request asking for details about the agency's use of the technology, but that request was denied because, the FBI said, it might interfere with law enforcement efforts. Someone speculates that "What is still unclear is whether the FBI used Carrier IQ's software in its own investigations, whether it is currently investigating Carrier IQ. The response would seem to indicate at least the former, since the request was specifically for documents related directly to accessing and analyzing Carrier IQ data."

Carrier IQ came out on the charm defensive, releasing a comprehensive FAQ detailing exactly what – and what not – was supposedly collected by its network monitoring tools. Nonetheless, many carriers themselves have been quick to put distance between them and the analytics firm.

Is Apple iPad 3 coming out in early 2012?

According to a Citi analyst, Apple’s next-generation iPad -- likely called an iPad 3, is expected to come out in early 2012. If recent analysis about Apple's imminent tablet plans are true, the third-generation iPad will arrive sometime between February and April 2012. In a research note sent last Thursday, Richard Gardner said "several sources" indicated that Apple would launch its next-generation iOS tablet as much as a month earlier than it released the iPad 2 in 2011.

Such a device would be similar to the iPad 2, but include Apple's high-resolution retina display technology found on the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S by doubling the iPad 3's screen resolution, said analyst Richard Gardner in a research note. The analyst also said that "there do not appear to be any significant technical hurdles remaining" to prevent the launch of a high-resolution iPad, which contradicts previous reports that fitting such a dense screen into an Apple tablet was one of the reasons Apple iPad 2 maintained the 1024 x 768 resolution of the first iPad. Both the first iPad and iPad 2 displays have a pixel density of 132 pixels per inch.

It’s reported that another feature of the next-generation iPad will have the same screen size but will be a bit thicker than the iPad 2, in order to support hardware that would increase the display resolution from 1,024-by-768 pixels to 2,048-by-1,536. iLounge's best source thinks that the iPad 3 will be 0.7 mm thicker, and trade magazine Digitimes has reported that Apple is at least considering a thicker unit in order to accommodate the sensors necessary for the better, so-called Retina Display (so dubbed because, according to Apple, the human eye cannot make out the individual pixels on the screen). If the iPad 3 does come out with a thicker body, it will join in on the great American tradition of emerging from the wintertime fatter than before.

Production of the new iPads is expected to reach 9.5-9.8 million units in the first quarter of 2012. Sales of iPad products totaled 25.06 million in the first three quarters of 2011 and are likely to reach 40 million units for all of 2011, the sources estimated. However, the new Android tablets like the Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime look to be much better direct competition for the iOS-based iPad than the first generation of tablets based on Google's mobile operating system. Cheaper, smaller device like Amazon's Kindle Fire, Barnes & Noble's Nook Tablet, and even a sub-$100 tablet using a MIPS-based chip are starting to appear.

Apple could head off competition from similarly priced Android tablets at the pass by getting its latest, greatest tablet technology out a bit sooner than expected. That would also have the effect of reducing prices for older versions of the iPad, which would encourage consumers attracted to the Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet to instead climb aboard the iOS platform at a discount.

Seven Reasons For Android's Inability to Dominate The Tablet Market---Encounter a Pincer Attack

IT Website eWeek today writes articles to say, although Android can get many benefits from the Tablet market, due to the lack of security, as well as the pincer attack between iOS and Windows 8 and many other factors, the system can not dominate the market.

The following is the full text:

The Tablet PC market is not friendly enough to Google's Android operating system. Over the past years, Apple iPad met the needs of more and more consumers in tablet PC field. The Samsung Galaxy Tab, Dell Streak and many other Android devices only lying on the shelf to collect dust. Of course, some people think this situation will get better. In order to prove this point, researchers and analysts have pointed out, Android started relatively slowly in intelligent mobile phone market, but in the end he gets a dominant share.

But so far, Android has not yet succeeded in tablet PC. Although Android System can certainly have a share of this market, there is little probability for him to get the dominance. Furthermore, from the current situation, Android may become one of the losers in the tablet PC market. The reasons are as follows:

First, Lack of Security.

Although some consumers refused to recognize the Android security problems, for enterprise users, it is particularly worthy of attention. Therefore, as iPad and Windows 8 enters the market, Android will be left behind. Over time, it will have a profound negative impact on the penetration rate of this system.

Second, iPad's Unshakable Status

iPad now dominates the tablet PC market. Some researchers think, this dominance will end up under the pressure of competition and will yield. But they were wrong, iPad won the favor of users, and this trend in the coming years will last a long time. The Android tablet will not constitute big threat to iPad's Status.

Third, iOS is More Useful

Android operating system is not bad, but it is not iOS. IPad ultra-high sales have explained this point. Apple iOS is easy to operate, and will not suffer the security problem. Its functions also come first on the list. Android beehive platform in many aspect falls behind iOS. Before all these get better, Android can only be envious.


Fourth, Windows 8 Adopts the same Strategy

Although Tablet PC mainly focused on Apple and Google on the body, you can't neglect that Windows 8 will also be joined in the competition. When its system released, it will have a great impact on Android. Like Google, Microsoft also provides major manufacturers the operating system, this leads the two companies to be a rivalry. Considering the Windows' success of in previous history, it is really worth to paying attention to how Android challenge Microsoft.

Fifth, Manufacturers are looking forward to Windows 8

When considering Microsoft 's mobile strategy, we have to mention another point where many manufactures have shown good attitude towards Microsoft---they plan to launch Windows 8 tablet PC. In fact, Dell, HP, and Asus have made clear intention. Over the next few months, there will be more companies adopting the same strategy. Once the tendency forms, Google has to worry about whether the manufacturer is willing to produce Windows 8 and Android tablet PC at the same time. This is unlikely, especially when Windows 8 tablet outsold Android.

Sixth, Sales Decides all

This year the global computer sales volume has reached tens millions, and manufacturers are all chasing apple closely. But compared with apple, Android sales volume is very low. Once Microsoft enters this market, it will be worse. While Google has its own story, the tablet PC's bad sales make Android manufacturers still rather tense.

Seventh, Consumers' Confusion

Google provides a number of different versions of the Android system, this decision is very bad. In addition, Google also allows the manufacturers to customize the operating system, but it has become a disadvantage in the tablet computing field. IPad 's success largely depends on the users know what iOS can provide. But in the intelligent mobile phone using Gingerbread system, users can get lost. This is the mistake in Google's strategy, and to a great extent, it will cause serious impact.

Microsoft will open Windows store for Metro-style Windows 8 App in February

Microsoft on Tuesday brought its Windows 8 road show to San Francisco, where the company previewed its upcoming Windows Store for app developers and media. They will open the online marketplace for Metro-style Windows 8 application in late February 2012. The key ingredients of the Windows Store are easy app discovery from within and without the online marketplace, built-in app trials with quick upgrade paths, support for both x86 and ARM-based hardware, and a flexible business model, Microsoft's Antoine Leblond said.

With Apple's Mac App Store and iTunes Store already operational and selling both computer and tablet applications, Microsoft is keen to highlight the differences and promises to make an application store that was more flexible, more transparent, and ultimately more lucrative for developers than Apple's. The Windows Store will make it easy for Windows customers to find, try and buy useful, high-quality apps from practically anywhere in the world. With code-named "Windows 8" and the Windows Store, developers can enjoy a built-in distribution and update mechanism for their apps. Built using HTML5 and JavaScript, the Windows Store is a fast, fluid, full-screen Metro-style app taking advantage of the Metro-style design principles inspired in Windows 8. Easy to build for, submit to and sell through, the Windows Store is designed with app discoverability and visibility in mind. The Windows Store will open its virtual doors to consumers and begin allowing for submission of free apps for Windows 8 Beta in late February next year.

The Windows Store will support both free and paid applications, with paid applications ranging from $1.49 to $999. As with Microsoft's Windows Phone Marketplace, developers can offer free trials, with integrated support for converting trials to full versions. Microsoft will provide its own advertising and in-app purchase infrastructure, but these will be strictly optional, if a developer wants to use a different ad network, or its own subscription and billing system, that's not a problem. With a standard validation process that developers can use even before they make their submission and an online tracker that tells them which phase their application is in and how long they can expect the process to take. But money is, for many developers, the most important feature of any online store. The Windows Store will take a 30 percent cut of application sales, just like Apple's store.

The Windows Store follows the path of Apple's Mac App Store, a software marketplace that's built into Mac OS X. That's provided a way for customers to quickly download both free and paid applications for their computers. Microsoft will offer the app marketplace around the world. Leblond said it will support more than 100 languages in 231 different markets. With the dominant operating system software as a lure, the Windows Store could evolve into a meaningful revenue generator for the company, which rang up just shy of $70 billion in the last fiscal year.

Carrier IQ was found in New Android Applications

The company behind the now-notorious Carrier IQ software that has been found to log every keystroke pressed, website visited and text message sent by 150 million mobile phone users. Carrier IQ, of course, professes its innocence, but the company has also received some public support from security researchers who say Carrier IQ software is only tracking diagnostic information and likely is not violating user privacy. Now, Carrier IQ has elaborated upon many arguments with a more detailed breakdown of how its software functions, and a more substantive defense of its practices.

During a recent interview with the Register, Carrier IQ VP of marketing Andrew Coward acknowledged that his company's mobile software logs keystrokes, intercepts text messages and gathers geographic data, but insisted that the overwhelming majority of this information is discarded almost as soon as it comes in, thereby posing virtually no threat to user privacy.

Carrier IQ only retains text messages or keystroke patterns that carry proprietary tags. These tags identify all transmissions that could be used to populate analytic data, including some that may be considered sensitive. If a user drops a call, for instance, the system will note his or her location, and the numbers of each party. In other cases, the company may receive a special SMS, which provides Carrier IQ with important diagnostic information.

Now, Carrier IQ has legal and publicity problems to handle. One new class-action lawsuit names both Carrier IQ and HTC, accusing the companies of violations under the Federal Wiretap Act. Another lawsuit was filed against Carrier IQ as well as HTC and Samsung, both of which have confirmed installing Carrier IQ software on their Smartphone, saying they do so at the request of wireless carriers.

Why Android only? Carrier IQ is no longer supported as of iOS 5 (Apple insists its customers have to opt-in before any information about their Smartphone is shipped off to Apple HQ), and blocking its effects on your iOS 5-based iPhone is super-easy: Click on your Settings button, then General, About, Diagnostics & Usage, and select " Don't Send."

However, Carrier IQ is a bit more integrated within the Android OS – so much so, that you'll need to root your device prior to attempting any removal efforts. But the first step in the process is finding out whether your Smartphone has Carrier IQ installed to begin with. And Lookout's new application makes this a one-touch affair.

Carrier IQ boasts that its software is deployed on more than 141 million handsets, and has operated for several years without any major level of controversy. Clearly, Smartphone would be capable of tracking much of our activity even if Carrier IQ never existed. But the lawsuits filed against Carrier IQ and its customers, and forthcoming responses to Franken's letters, should shed more light on exactly what information is collected and how it is used.

The Competition of Indoor Navigation

I believe most of you have the same experience that I have. When you fist step in a new building, airport or school, you will feel loss and do not know what to do first and where to go. For example, you are in a hospital. It is difficult for you to find the place you want to go. Many hospital use a not that effective way to solve this problem, of course, it does not work at most of the time. They just set different kinds of sign post or just use different colors to guide people. However, now we have a really nice way to solve this problem, using intelligent map system in mobile phone. It makes it's easy to find some places in a building and other indoor places.

In the latest Android map, it includes US IKEA and Macy's and other 18 airport's detailed layout. Almost at the same time, Nokia announced they will release indoor map suing Bluetooth 4.0. Although use two totally different technology, we can smell that the war of indoor map is already begin.

For a long time, Bluetooth has a poor reputation. It maybe because that the headphone looks not like a human or something else. It makes people feel weird. However, Bluetooth is actually a really nice technology: powerful, simple, cheap. And it will be much more smart after the release of Bluetooth 4.0. Nokia's Location Extension Protocol uses the connection of locator transmitter on the ceiling and Bluetooth 4.0. And triangulation method that is similar to GPS. Through this way, your mobile phone can find the place you want to go accurately. It is said that the degree of precision is less than 8 inches.

Nokia has spent over one billion euros and hope this breakthrough technology will bring superority in the competiton of indoor map. They have also discovered the different application of this tech, from game to indoor navigation. Nokia is now trying their best to persuade Bluetooth SIG to make one uniform standard and hope this kind of mobile phone can come out into market in 2013.

Just like that if there is no specific map, GPS can not work, the indoor navigation system can not work without a detailed architectural and structural drawings. Now Google allows uses to upload or add architectural and structural drawings to Google Maps as they do the same to SketchUp. This is a simple process, users just need upload the picture of the floor's layout and then connect with satellite images of Google Maps. Through this way, Google not only gets many users' support, uploading indoor maps data day and night, they also uses the data for other users, such as services based on location and ads based on location.

What I have said above is not considering the crime, privacy and other safe question. People are now really sensitive to Google Street View. I believe this kind of indoor map data will bring bigger controversy. In conclusion, we need indoor navigation when we are in a strange building to find places fast. However, we need to use it carefully. Hope Google and Nokia will solve these problems and provide us indoor navigation one day.
