IPhone OS 3.0: New Phone

Just yesterday one of the owners of the iPhone in Russia will be a global update your phone to iTunes is available an updated version of the operating system with an index of 3.0. A list of changes is very long, I would like to dwell on the most important things and allow us to say that in front of us, in fact, it appears the new device. I will write later with the arrival of new MacBook Pro, an article about the announcement of the company, iPhone 3GS, but so far I wanted to stay here for nothing. It turns out interesting, we all know and remember the simple truth. If the update globally, the company - phone manufacturers often come up under this thing updated for new devices. I can not remember any update for Nokia or Sony Ericsson, where in-one converged to supplements in the form of stereo-bluetooth, tethering, Shake control, plus a search, the opportunity to work with the keyboard in landscape mode in certain applications and so on and the like. Update my impression from the phone, like previously I personally do not recall. Moreover, there happened curious - OS 3.0 involves the 'old' phones, and the player iPod Touch. However, for the latter it is not free, will cost almost ten dollars. But there is a "new" phone called iPhone 3GS, it was originally supplied with the latest software and hardware is better demonstrates the new capabilities of the operating system. In the near future, I think you will find an overview of this device, open a little secret - it may happen that the localized version gets into my hands a little earlier than in any other. Another reason to go to the section.

The only trouble with my iPhone, which occurred after the upgrade to 3.0 - it started to slow down. I asked the question to other owners of this phone, they say, how are you doing with OS 3.0? Problems seem to be not observed. But if they are honest with me? Or simply mask their true emotions? I do not know. I think there is some intrigue to the current update. IPhone 3G owners to quickly think better of, and climbed on the iPhone 3Gs. Maybe it? I believe completely. I will tell you exactly how to exercise "the brakes" with my machine. Slowly opens mail, letters. Not so fast was called SMS. The browser runs on a fraction of a second slower. It is the same for the player. The owners, who upgraded, say, you all right? Exactly? No brakes?

Almost, but not until the end, many of my reply, wrote that, they say, are identical, but that's Nokia, it is by definition better.

Review of Bluetooth-headset Nokia BH-216

Package Contents: Headset Set of nozzles on the speaker Ear User Not so long ago, watching comments Learn Eldar, faced just such a view: that all the accessories for Nokia makes Jabra. In fact, it's the same thing, Nokia is nothing new, and accessories, in fact, their "own" either. Tried to argue, but faced with the typical network approach: it is said, "Son, do not immediately la-la, we are all aware.

Review of Bluetooth-headset Nokia BH-215

Package Contents: Headset Charger User The headset was announced at the end of the year 2008, when I first saw her, I was seized with astonishment. The fact that this type of mono released six years ago, had a similar product from Nokia, from Sony Ericsson, they cost cheaper than their traditional counterparts, while not making the user look like a robot gobota. In-ear headphones, the unit is fastened to the jacket, the phone in your pocket. Convenient for those who for whatever reason can not bring myself to equip traditional ear headset. Despite these advantages, this type of headset is not caught on in the market, and that in 2008 the year of a revival. If you do not have access to some information, we can say that Nokia decided to use an old trend to dilute the line. If access to some to have, then we can say that in the Samsung, and Sony Ericsson are planning to do the same. Interestingly, right? It is clear that the companies' plans, not yet officially submitted such a device may change, but the Nokia BH-215 on the market will fall. Moreover, at first my opinion on this stuff was purely negative. But for common reflection, not yet seeing the product, I came to interesting conclusions. See, for an external unit with an external speaker does not need to do very very small. And if so, it is possible to place a good battery. And to make the perfect headset for those who are not chasing the image, but needs quality and LP for solving everyday negotiations. Until now, there are many people who use wired mono, I was particularly struck in this regard, the film Body of lyes, where an important part of what is happening is the negotiation with the help of such accessories. I think, Nokia BH-215 would fit perfectly as a replacement.

Review of Bluetooth-headset Nokia BH-214

Package Contents: Headset Nokia Bluetooth Stereo Headset (BH-214) Headphones Nokia Music Headset (HS-44) User Charger Nokia Compact Charger (AC-3) As almost always, readers are falling be the first to get acquainted with the headset, which is not too soon appear on store shelves. Also, for me it is a product (and review) does not pass, because the product has turned a brilliant, high-quality and other similar epithets. In my opinion, the 214th destined to be a hit in spring, summer, autumn and winter of 2009, as long as it normally arrives in our country and hit the shops. If you look at the history line of accessories from Nokia, then I replace the 214-Nokia BH-500 sports a wireless headset that cost was worth, but it was, what to pay. Good voice quality, music, high-quality assembly and housing, a special USB-adapter kit that allows instant set with a headset connection, good headphones are included - all this made and makes the BH-500 rather attractive, but will have to pay the order. Moreover, it has not yet found in the retail, rather, could be found, but with difficulty (but the prices are now adequate, not five or six thousand). In short, Nokia BH-214 continues the history of sports wireless headsets, so with one hand. On the other hand, attributed it to low-cost products - it is not "advanced" is not able to keep in touch immediately with two devices, does not have by some infernal noise reduction technology ... but we need it? We need to inexpensively and work as a revolver. I mean, reliably and accurately at the target. What do and say - get a hit.

In this material, not just once or twice, I will mention consoles. And not just, not just to be witty. The fact that even some time ago it was possible to laugh at the games for the iPhone, they say, is still to some Tekken on the PSP away. But as time goes on, and now I would not say so. I believe that iPhone 3Gs yet show the world a new approach to games for mobile devices, because there is a fairly powerful hardware capabilities, there is a huge community of owners and convenient method of distribution. Have everything we need to set the heat to traditional consoles. End of year 2009 in this regard can be very revealing. And so what will happen next ... it's frightening to think about. And if you look at what steps the company management, it becomes clear why Sony released the console PSPgo.

Mobile Balance: More than just a cost control

State of balance money / included minutes from mobile operator interest almost everyone. Few exceptions: unlimited calling to fixed monthly fee and credit TA-paid communication services. You can, of course, keep the account a couple of hundred USD and do not bother cost control, but for most of us is a "solution" is unacceptable. Yes, and the deposit interest operators do not pay, although it could do something like progressive discounts depending on the amount of down payment. The first attempt of this kind can be considered a 15 percent bonus on every second installment in Bee +, but this is a topic for another conversation.

Probably, many remember the twelfth model with the same mount as you can see, even numbering tells us about the kind of tribute to the product of the past.

MTS MAXI: Another proposal for "talkative"

As we have previously mentioned, in the era of free incoming priority for all operators is guaranteed by the regular removal of rubles from the pockets of subscribers. More than rubles - the better, and for the stability of the high ARPU operator is ready to offer cheaper per minute, and various additional advantages. With regard to the MTS, the latest tariff offers of this company, we are seeing a clear bias in favor of promoting communication within the network. The new tariff MAXI with federal number - entirely in line with these two trends.

Boring without viruses? Nothing will soon have some fun!

About six months ago, the situation with any malicious software-an abomination in the wireless industry looked pretty benevolently. At least so thought Evgeny Kaspersky, and his opinion we are pleased to share with our readers. Since then the situation has had time to radically change: there was a first "working prototype" virus for networked PDAs, appeared the first Russian antivirus for handhelds - Kaspersky ® Security for PDA, runs on two platforms: Pocket PC and Palm OS. "Guests" are not forced myself to wait, quoting the latest press release of Kaspersky Lab:

Zero comes alive in the MTS?

It is no secret that the emergence of some new services in one network is a powerful stimulus introduction of something like our competitors. Especially when the 'pathfinder' spared no money on advertising, and subscribers of other networks are beginning to ask hard questions of their contact center employees. C October 10 service "Live zero" (the ability to receive incoming calls to a phone number with a zero balance) is already working in several regional segments of the MTS network. It is likely that in the very near future this service will be launched in the Moscow region.

MTS: Group communication is becoming more accessible. More than a loan, but for the Rouble

Thus, the first ruble "swallow" - rate "we" for a narrow group of users. There was a long-awaited "surprise", MTS starts smooth movement in the ruble zone. Certainly not an easy process will stretch until the end of the year, but at least it has moved forward. As far as we can assume from the scant information on the company website in the near future for the subscribers of all dollar-denominated tariffs will have an opportunity to move their prices in ruble terms. Without any problems, visits to offices and processing of applications by simply selecting the appropriate menu item "Mobile Assistant" or "Internet Assistant" (deceased ACCA and ICS, respectively). We must assume that from January 1, the "orublitsya" automatically, but until that time subscribers will be able to choose the moment of transition for the ruble as their own "maturity." If this is true, and if the transition on an individual basis would normally trigger - honor and praise of MTS professionals and developers with the billing system.

"The country in the context of" Beeline or "Business without Borders" MTS?

Marketers respected companies as collusion: operator is one to grope their tariff successful niche or consumer sector, as the second, without further ado, rolls out on the market suspiciously similar proposal. Recently, in a "cloning" more often been seen MTS, Beeline's turn now follow in the footsteps of a competitor. At first glance it is unclear why Beeline was so long to pull with his version of "Unlimited Russia, losing dozens of the most valuable, profitable customers?

A second penny gained

Type of pricing - what the average consumer rarely draws attention. In the description of any rate, this parameter is present, but more often in the list of footnotes in very small print. Per second, per minute, every second the second minute ... What, in essence, is the difference? If only minute talk was cheap, so these figures are all watching very closely. In fact, the type of pricing is an important parameter which largely determines the cost of a call. And we pay in the end it was a conversation, not specified in the tariff, "minutes".
