[ credit : 9to5Mac ]Following all the rumors until today, there had been several rumors regarding when the highly anticipated Apple iPhone 5 and iPad Mini will be released. Several analysts and news outlets began pouring in similar information and details regarding the launch dates of the devices.
Ming-Chi Kuo from the KGI Securities, offered expectations on the launch of the devices and believed those devices will make their debut in September. Personally I have no idea if these sources are reliable or not. However, they are reported by established sources like 'The Wall Street Journal' and 'Reuters'. It seems that the new gadgets is coming closer and closer to fit into our pockets!

A German court recently ruled Samsung not going to be able to sell its Galaxy Tab 7.7 in the entire European Union which consists of 27 Member States. The court making this decision is base on the ban of Galaxy Tab 10.1 earlier.
According to CNET, Samsung is 'disappointed' with the court's decision.
Another judge in the UK recently ruled 3 of Samsung's tablets were 'not as cool' as the iPad whereas Apple still claims Samsung still owes substantial monetary damages to Apple.
Well, personally i think Apple is being too aggressive? I mean take a look at all Apple's lawsuit which protects their products so much. Are they that afraid other companies might triumph over them?
Samsung believes Apple’s patents are too “generic” to be upheld and said it “welcomes” the court’s ruling that confirms the Galaxy Tab 10.1N does not infringe on Apple’s technology, CNET said.

AT&T and Verizon are posting record profit margins, while their current iPhone sales have fallen. it was said that many analysts have seen this coming before. The next version of iPhone is going to be out in a few months time hence many buyers are are holding to buy for the new iPhone.
AT&T and Verizon cash will still be making a profit though since the customers are stilling using the old phones and they are paying for the contracts plan for phone which include voice and data plans.

the 52 percent of users who started using Internet this year are from the
countryside.
"Mobile phones are a cheaper and more convenient way to access the Internet for (residents in) China's vast rural areas and for the enormous migrant population," said the report.
Increase up to 388 million of people use mobile phones to go online for the first half of this year, up to 9.2 percent from the end of 2011. While 380 million of people used computer.
"Smartphones are more and more powerful and there is a new wave of mobile application innovation," the report said.

Weibbos, microblogging services similar to Twitter is going to
banned in China by the end of the June. More than half of China’s internet population
will be affected.
Beijing often used an online censorship system, the Great Firewall
of China, to block sensitive Internet postings.
Nevertheless, web users often use weibos which have become the
most popular social networking to rant their anger over corruption, scandals
and disasters, or inform people about protests and riots.
This encouraged the Chinese authorities to come
out with a plan of tightening the control of the services, including making
their users register under their real names.

Hey guys :)
It seems that Europe telcos have been stocking up on nano-sim cards for the up and coming iPhone 5!
 |
Picture
from: www.knowyourmobile.com
|
to a minimum, at 12.3 mm long and 8.8 mm wide, and thus is around 40% smaller than its predecessor,
the micro-SIM used by the iPhone 4/4s. As the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI)
has approved it recently, it would be used by Apple in their upcoming iPhone 5! ETSI has also stated that
this new Nano-SIM will be backward compatible with the existing SIM card designs.
This, however, makes us wonder why Apple had reduced the size of the current micro-SIM card? I sure
hope it is for additional battery life! What about you? Share your thoughts in the comment sections
below.

Facebook have a new security feature
which protects the users from getting attack by Malware on the social
networking website. Users can make use of the dubbed Malware Checkpoint to prevent Malware from spreading to website as well as removing it easily as well.
User can access two free anti-virus programs, McAfee and
Microsoft Security Essential while using the Facebook security features which
is a self-enrollment system. With this new checkpoint, it is harder for Malware to attack the Facebook user.
How Checkpoint system works?
If the Facebook user suspect that his/her computer is
being infected by Malware, he/she can use the Checkpoint system and it causes Facebook to lock their account temporary until users run either McAfee or Microsoft Essential to get their account unlocked.
This is how you use
the anti-virus products:
If you choose McAfee,
it will download a small program onto your computer and it will perform a
one-time scan of your system, checking for harmful threat. It won’t collapse or
interrupt your current security software such as AVG Avast!. McAfee provide you
with choice upon deleting harmful threat/file either by automatically or
manually after scanning.
If you choose Microsoft
Security Essentials, it provides a full anti-virus product for free. After
you download and install the software, the software will protect your computer
with the latest update to keep your computer safe.
This Malware checkpoint is the latest feature launched in
April 2012. The marketplace provides users with free half a year licenses to
full versions of security software such as Microsoft, Symantec, etc.
