Apple could launch a "iPhablet" this year

 

Okay, I'll be frank: this is something that definitely did not expect to come. Who could imagine that Apple, which has a single mobile device in the range of 4 inches to 6 inches, would be interested in creating a phablet? According to one analyst, before long we could see a large iPhone will probably be called "iPhablet" or something like that.

Ben Reitzes, an analyst at Barclays Capital, says that we should expect the launch of the new 5-inch device this year. As has been seen, the phablets are gaining popularity, and this suggests that Apple might want to have your own model.

Is it possible Reitzes says? Well probably not. The company is already working on a low-cost iPhone and surely also in an improved version of iPhone 5 (5S) and both devices would be launched this year. Also there are rumors about an iPad 5 and a new version of the iPad Mini, which complicates matters further.

If Apple really going to throw a iPhablet, it should do so in late 2013 or early 2014.

Do you think this is even developing device? What technology do you think that would have?

Man wounded by the explosion of a Galaxy Note

 

A South Korean man suffered second degree burns after the device exploded.

Not the first time we see cases of exploiting Samsung devices, and this time the protagonist is a device Galaxy Note. It was Sunday afternoon when a 55-year-old suffered second degree burns on his right thigh. It seems that the Samsung Galaxy Note battery he carried in his pocket exploded, damaging both the clothes and the body of the person.

Although the incident was quite severe, there are not many details about the case. A Samsung spokesman said that lithium batteries can catch fire if they are under pressure or sudden temperature changes before. It seems that you are still trying to determine what actually happened in this case.

Others in the past have been victims of other models in the Galaxy, such as the Galaxy S II that injured a young or S II Skyrocket which burned in the pocket of a man if memory serves me.

Have you ever had problems like this with your phone?

The government wants a free public network of high-speed WiFi

 

The Federal Communications Commission of the United States has proposed creating a massive WiFi network that will give almost all citizens free access to a wireless Internet connection and high speed. The plan already has the support of giants like Google and Microsoft, while corporations like AT&T, Verizon and others that provide Internet services are not really disagree with the idea for obvious reasons.

This super WiFi network forever end mobile Internet plans and probably for homes, and that all people have access to a national network with speeds of 20MB / s.

For this network can be created, the government would need to use a portion of the signal of radio and television, which certainly will not happen if there is no money involved.

It would be great if this kind of ideas were implemented in other countries and not only in the United States.
