Smarter smartphones, before you can say “I have a new phone” – iPhone 5 rumours

Consumers expect a lot out of their technology and always want more features, faster performance and more applications. That’s the driving factor to the ever changing technology industry. And just when you settle into your technology, it changes again.

 

The smartphone market changes more rapidly than PCs and most other technology. Products are designed with planned obsolescence.  About 6 in 10 (62%) smartphone owners expect their current smartphone will become obsolete before its contract expires.

 

If you were just settling into your iPhone 4s, you may or may not be pleased to know that the new replacement iPhone 5 will hit the market in the last quarter of this year, possibly early October. There are rumours that it will be completely redesigned, including the OS.

 

From the many concept pictures that I’ve seen of the new iPhone 5, this one tops it. A very sleek look, which from the backside looks more like the Mac mouse, than an iPhone. Although a curvaceous backend may look sexy, it’s not a functional design when laying on its back.

 

What’s exciting is the rumoured concept features. A laser keyboard & holographic display. Very… very cool.

I sure hope that Apple can find a battery to support useful longevity of this phone.

Check out the video and leave your commitments.

How to Move your Business Office without Downtime

Relocating a business and moving your office can be stressful especially when there’s downtime involved. But it doesn’t have to be so. How do you move without disrupting the flow of business and continue serving your customer? The secret is in the planning and don’t try to do it alone. Follow these tips and download the free moving checklist:

1- Pick your move planning committee team.

2- Within your team, assign responsibilities for looking after: office furniture, computer/phone/general office equipment, phone lines & Internet services, renovations and/or cleaning at the new location, if required.

3- Create an inventory list of the office equipment and furniture.

4- Determine what equipment and furniture you should keep or replace with new.

5- Individuals in your committee team should advise suppliers of your move and request for proposals, including phone/internet services for the new location, relocation or purchase of computers, phone system, test existing or install new phone/network cabling at new location, office furniture, moving companies, renovation and cleaning. Consider lead times and start this process 3 months in advance if possible.

 

The more time you give your team and suppliers to plan the above steps,

the easier and smoother your move will be.

 

Downtime can be avoided by planning the cut over (relocation) of your phone/internet services and phone/computer infrastructure, including furniture move to occur after hours. This is not as easy it may sound, but with careful planning you can transition to your new location without any or very little downtime. Click here to read how we’ve made this happen.

The $199 PlayBook is Back

RIM is at it again, the PlayBook promotion returns: $199 for the 16GB version, $249 for 32GB, and $299 for 64GB. The device won’t have the latest 2.0 version software yet, but RIM will be rolling out the update soon.

 

Despite the negative publicity that this poor tablet has received, I have to say that at $200, with the new OS coming out soon, this is a really good deal.

 

It’s a device with better specs than others, it runs Flash, and has some great productivity software. If you want games and apps, it’s not the best choice. However, if you use a BlackBerry smartphone and are interested in email, time management, contacts, syncing, and all that great stuff, the PlayBook is a good buy. It’s also great for sales presentations especially if it includes web based Flash video.

 

With the Bridge feature you don’t need a separate 3G internet connection and you don’t need WiFi for the PlayBook. You can simply connect it your to your BlackBerry smartphone and use the internet connection from your phone. With a 7 inch screen size, this tablet is the ideal portable device that will keep you connected. A good buy for $200 bucks. Check out your favourite retailer. Also available at FutureShop and BestBuy.

Press quotes

“The Lenovo ThinkPad T420s is amazing when you realize that its power, feature set, and battery yields are usually found in much heavier laptops…”  PC Magazine, August 2011

“The T420 is solidly constructed and offers racehorse performance. It’s highly configurable with multiple warranty options, as befits a business laptop. Just about every IT person we know swears by the T series–for their clients and themselves.”  PC World, August 2011

“With its epic battery life, awesome keyboard, solid sound, durable design, and high-res screen, the ThinkPad T420 offers nearly everything you’d want in a 14-inch business system for a good price.”  Laptop Magazine, August 2011

“…the business user’s ultimate Goldilocks notebook. At 14.1 inches and 4 pounds, the [T420s] is extremely light and portable, but it’s large enough to provide a generous high-res screen, a powerful processor, and a full-sized keyboard and touchpad.”  Laptop Magazine, June 2011

“…arguably the best business thin-and-light [laptop] money can buy…[the T420s is] a road-worthy platform that any business buyer will envy.”  Computer Shopper, June 2011

“It’s one of the few laptops on the market to have a 14in screen, which we think hits the sweet spot nicely between user comfort and portability…the T420 is a joy to use.” PC World, May 2011

Speak & Vlingo listens on my smartphone

Vlingo gives me the ability to navigate my phone entirely by voice. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning. I press a button on my smartphone, wait for a chime, simply say, “Web search, weather Toronto,” and the browser opens and delivers me the weather. I can also use it to text and send emails to my contacts.

With the ability to text and email by voice, the Vlingo software can voice control my entire phone. For example, after a meeting I can quickly email my team the meeting notes and attach it to our CRM without having to type.

There’s a free lite Vlingo version and a full featured version available from the website at: www.vlingo.com . The application is useful tool, but it does eat up bandwidth. Watch the video below to learn more.
