The UK has become one of the world's leading market for mobile phones . Those living in this unitary state consume more traffic on their phones and tablets than any other nation in the world according to a report from Ofcom.
The UK uses 424MB of data each month, an increase of 60% over last year. Japan is second with 392MB per month while the U.S. takes sixth place with 319.
In addition, Ofcom has also seen UK residents spend on average 728 minutes online each week, a little less than 746 minutes last year.

The Pentagon will create a phenomenal wireless network


Networks such as 3G, WiMax or LTE by giving examples, not enough for the U.S. military.They are looking for an even faster network that could be used by troops in the coming years. As they say, if you want something done right, do it yourself.
The Pentagon has made ​​that statement very seriously, which is why one of its agencies,DARPA known, will create an ultra fast wireless network that is much faster than optical fiber networks that we use today.
How fast? Well, with a speed of 100Gbps. As a comparison, the current LTE networks have a speed of 0.03 Gbps, so insurance we can get an idea.
But this does not end here, because the idea is to have a high speed data transmission even over long distances, say 200 miles between two planes and about 100 miles between aircraft and ground vehicles.
The biggest problem: time. This new network must be able to operate in any weather, be it snow, rain, sun, amid a sandstorm, etc. The only way to achieve this is to use radio frequencies because the other wireless technologies do not have the required scope or need an unobstructed path.
Currently, the military network is secure TCDL reaching a speed of 10.7 Mbps at distances of 200 km, which is not enough.
Will have to see what happens to the DARPA invented for this new project.

HTC mobile stop WP develop over 5 inches



According to sources familiar with the guys from HTC have opted to stop making large smartphones that run Windows Phone.
