Nearly One In Five British Adults Have Never Used The Internet, Statistics Show

"Nearly nine millions adults in Britain have never used the Internet, statistics show, exposing the rift between the old and the young when it comes to embracing the digital age.



"The figure represents 17.4 per cent adult population, the Office for National Statistics said in a report released on Wednesday, with the over-65s the least likely to have been online.



"Age UK said that while it was good news that many older people were online, it was vital that access was widened, as 5.7 million over-65s still had never used the Internet."

In connection with images or videos you've recorded), microUSB, WiFi, GPS, all 8 GB of memory and other standard features you would expect of a mobile as the Arc from SE.

Sony Ericsson Arc Review
Xperia ARC Display: The 4.2 "large screen uses Sony's new" Reality Display "technology, which is probably most of all be said to be their take on Apple's" Retina ". It works really well, and combined with Mobile Bravia (also from Sony, which you might recognize the name from their TVs) you get excellent black level (black) and good colors.

Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc camera: The mobile phone equipped with an excellent 8.1 megapixel camera. The camera uses Sony's "Exmoor-R" sensor technologies to enhance the sensitivity which gives much better pictures in low light (ie. In the evening). This combined with a 2.4 lens gives a better picture in indoor environments than many competitors' models.

You also get autofocus, LED flash and touch focus, which means that you simply touch the screen where you want the phone to focus. Additionally, the image stabilizer, geo-tagging (using the GPSen) and smile & face.

The phone is just 8.7 mm thick, which immediately makes it one of the thinnest phones in the mobile market. It's ideal to pant or shirt pocket without being a nuisance, since it also only weighs 117 grams.

      Explosive Growth of Mobile Internet

      "Almost half of UK internet users are going online via mobile phone data connections, according to the Office for National Statistics.



      45% of people surveyed said they made use of the net while out and about, compared with 31% in 2010.



      The most rapid growth was among younger people, where 71% of internet-connected 16 to 24-year-olds used mobiles.



      Domestic internet use also rose. According to the ONS, 77% of households now have access to a net connection.



      That figure was up 4% from the previous year, representing the slowest rate of growth since the ONS survey began in 2006."




      Seems that the mobile Internet is growing hand in hand with the home broadband Internet. If this trend will continue is unclear but look a the growth for home Internet in the UK since 2005, the year after most people accepted the 'dot bomb' was over:

      Sony tablets take on Apple's iPad | Technology | guardian.co.uk

      "Sony unveiled its long-awaited Android tablets on Wednesday – but the price tags had analysts claiming it will struggle to compete for the No 2 spot in a market dominated by Apple.



      The basic model of Sony's main tablet, shown at the IFA show in Berlin, is priced at €499 (£441), the same as the iPad – a price where Hewlett-Packard and other tablet companies have failed to dent Apple's dominance.



      Sony had vowed in January that by 2012 it would become the world's No 2 tablet maker – behind Apple – and it stuck by this bold claim at IFA where its chief executive Howard Stringer introduced the devices."

      韩政府建议三星LG放弃Android


      苹果借iPhone和iPad打造出一个iOS王国，让全球认识到移动操作系统在IT业的战略价值。
      谁能打造出围绕自己移动操作系统的良性循环生态链，谁就占据移动互联网时代IT产业的高地。日前，有媒体称，韩国政府建议三星和LG放弃谷歌Android系统，转而加入“一个由韩国公司组成的联盟”，该联盟旨在开发自主的移动操作系统。


      由于Android目前在全球智能手机市场的份额超过53%，三星和LG是否愿意放弃Android转而支持一款尚未开始开发的操作系统还是一个疑问。


      业界也有消息显示，三星方面正考虑收购惠普的webOS，但该传闻被三星否认。美国科技博客网站Android And Me指出，一旦三星和LG接受了政府的建议，那么三星自有操作系统Bada可能会暂时派上用场。








      “目前IT行业技术发展正由硬变软，其中手机操作系统占据核心战略地位。”独立IT评论人王斌指出，韩国政府发展自主手机操作系统的意愿，是基于国家安全和产业战略布局双方面的考虑。
      　　
      艾媒咨询CEO张毅表示，谷歌收购摩托罗拉移动，必然会对其他手机大厂造成对Android未来发展的顾虑而转向。从客观条件来看，之前三星做Bada手机操作系统已积累了很多经验，加上三星和LG在全球手机市场份额和地位，打造韩国本土手机操作系统的技术条件是成熟的。
      　　
      市场研究公司comScore的最新数据显示，今年5至7月，三星占据美国手机市场25.5%的份额，继续高居榜首，而LG位居第二，市场占有率也高达20.9%，远远高于苹果的9.1%的市场占有率。
      其实，韩国举全国之力，推动三星和LG垄断产业上游进而制定国际标准的计划，已实施多年。


      早在2005年，韩国就在国内强制推行WIPI标准（一种无线传输标准，类似WiFi），直到2009年4月才解除强制采用的规定。该规定让韩国手机市场成为三星和LG的天下，市场份额高达80%以上。


      此外，2006年韩国三星、LG力推的T-DMB手机电视标准借获得国际标准的势头，频频叩响中国大门，并引发长达两年的中国手机电视标准之争，最终以T-DMB败北告终。


      今天韩国政府建议三星和LG开发自主移动操作系统，其中的国家战略意义自然不言而喻。
      之前，三星借助韩国政府的支持，抢占了存储器半导体、液晶面板和LED芯片等产业上游近三分之一的全球市场份额，但如今，上述产业已受到竞争对手的威胁，液晶面板事业部更是连续两个季度出现亏损。

      "IBM says the combination of i2 technology with its own real-time analytical solutions will improve at a local level the private and pubic sectors' ability to collect, analyse and process all the relevant data at their disposal rather than suffer from data overload, which in the past has often led to critical information or opportunities being missed.



      Tools will include a range of visualisation and multidimensional intelligence analytics that can help analysts quickly identify connections, patterns and trends in complex data sets."

      LG launches 'RoboKing Triple Eye' smartphone-controlled vacuuming robot

      By Lydia Leavitt  posted Aug 30th 2011 at 8:35PM

      You won't have to leave your post on the couch, but you will have to lift a finger to your smartphone in order to tidy up with LG's 'RoboKing Triple Eye' VR6180VMNV robot vacuum. Unlike it's purple cousin who spends his time looking inwards, this little guy is always looking outward with its three cameras, capturing video and sending it to your smartphone or PC over WiFi. The robot uses sensors to create aplan of attack map of your home, allowing you to move it around by clicking the filthiest parts. Like a well-trained puppy, the dust buster also responds to voice commands from up to 5 feet away and it doesn't even bark -- only emitting 48dB of sound while sucking up dust. Of course, laziness of this caliber doesn't come cheap, as it costs 899,000 Korean won, or around $840 bones.

      Samsung launches YP-R2, YP-Z3, MP3 HD compatible PMPs


      By   posted Aug 31st 2011 at 12:54AM

      Samsung has had its sights set on a PMP with MP3 HD support for some time now -- first announcing (and later killing) the IceTouch in 2010, and now launching the YP-R2 and YP-Z3 in markets including Russia and Korea. Claiming that the lossy/lossless HD MP3 sound is five times better than the standard variety, the company will put it to the test with access to Melon, Korea's largest 2.2 million song music store. So far, Samsung has only confirmed the R2 has a 3-inch WQVGA full touch display, is .3-inches thick and weighs around 52 grams, while the Z3, on the other hand has a 1.8-inch display and measures in at 36 grams. The music players also support photo and text viewing, FM radio and 5.1-channel surround sound. The R2 comes in black and silver and costs 149,000 KRW ($140) for 4GB, and 169,000 KRW ($160) for 8GB. The Z3 comes in white, pink and blue and costs 89,000 KRW ($83) for 4GB, and 119,000 KRW for 8GB ($110). There's no word yet if these devices will ever see US release, but check out the source for more pictures.
