Broadband-speed internet on your mobile phone: Super-fast 4G services set for 2013

Licences for high-frequency analogue TV bandwidth could raise billions
Broadband-speed mobile network will be available in all corners of Britain
Britain already behind U.S. and Japan who have 4G networks
Hopes that 4G could raise as much as sale of 3G for £22.5bn
Licences for the latest generation of mobile internet – capable of delivering broadband speed to phones on the go – will be auctioned for billions of pounds in a year’s time, it emerged today.

Fourth-generation (4G) services, offering fast connections to British smartphones, laptops and tablet computers, will use the wireless spectrum historically used by analogue TV.

The government could raise huge sums by selling the rights to use the high frequencies between 800 MHz and 2.6 GHz, which are being switched off broadcasting as digital is rolled out.

The auction of 3G licences in 2000 raised a remarkable £22.5billion for the Government from phone companies.

Telecoms regulator Ofcom today revealed the auction will be held in the first quarter of 2012 and 4G services should be available from 2013.

iPad2 to be released soon?

The tech world is buzzing with rumors that Apple will soon release the second version of its popular iPad. There’s rampant speculation about a possible iPad2 release date, but the company is not saying when it will happen.

iPhone 4 Breaks all Records

How badly did Verizon Wireless customers want the iPhone 4—a phone that’s been on the market for seven months and is likely to get replaced in just a few more? Apparently, they wanted it more than any other phone in Verizon’s history. Verizon Wireless on Friday announced that the iPhone 4 broke all previous first-day device sales records in company history, and it only took two hours to do it. “This was an exciting day,” said Dan Mead, president and CEO for Verizon Wireless, in a press release.
Keep in mind, Verizon Wireless and Apple opened preorders at 3 a.m. ET Thursday morning, and even then, only to existing Verizon Wireless customers. While the iPhone 4 broke Verizon Wireless’s sales records just two hours later, preorders lasted until Thursday afternoon, when both Verizon and Apple had to stop accepting them.
The only way to get a Verizon iPhone 4 now is to wait for when they become publicly available. You can try to order one online for delivery or in-store reservation at 3:01 a.m. ET on February 9, or try your luck with walking up to stores on February 10, when doors open at 7 a.m. local time. Judging by Verizon Wireless’s battered and bruised sales records, though, it seems like demand is pretty healthy, which means lines are likely to be long. If you’re determined to get a Verizon iPhone 4 as soon as possible, it may be wise to collect a comfortable lawn chair and your best line-waiting shoes.

Review of Phone Just 5 CP10

 

Last year we wrote about the phone Just5 CP09, which the public dubbed "babushkofonom. At this time, would like to introduce you to update your phone model CP10. By and large there is little technical difference - increased size of the display and the vibrating alert option added, which are lacking in the previous version. But the design has undergone significant changes. And the variety of colors rife. The basic ideology of the phone lies in its simplicity and usability of the elderly and people with impaired vision / hearing. Or as a second phone.

Keyboard

The keyboard is not just big, it's awesome. Click on the buttons conveniently absolutely anything with your finger - do not miss. Illuminated keyboard, as well as the display - an orange.

 Options:
- Telephone
- Battery
- Charger
- wired headset

 At the top end are the LED flashlight, charger connector and an input for headset / headphones. LED flashlight, not bright, but the light should be enough to freely pass through the dark entrance and find the door hole. .

Radio
Radio, as well as on the last model uses a built-in antenna. Hands-free does not improve the quality of reception. It seemed to me, the radio in this phone - a very weak side. During testing the phone, I was in the Moscow area, and being in the building of the phone could not catch a single radio frequency, while the other phone using the headset as an antenna - perfectly caught the radio.  

Appearance
If we take as a basis for CP09 and all comparisons to build on this, the new cool phone has changed. It's no longer the stump of glossy plastic, which is very unpleasant to handle. Phone is made of high quality and pleasant to the touch materials - rubberized plastic (soft-touch coating). The entire perimeter of the front bezel is made of metal.

 NSleva a button on / off the radio and rocker for volume control.

 On the back side of lonely is the button SOS. I honestly do not understand why the company decided to make it JUST5 switch, which is very easy to turn, pulling the phone out of his pocket, or even during a call, because Hold the phone in my hand, my finger rested exactly in the button. And when you consider all that noise and panic, the phone begins to direct activation button SOS, then, to put it mildly, it is unlikely anyone will like it. In the last version of the phone it was made much easier, and eliminates accidental pressing. For those who do not know what button SOS: When you activate the SOS button is sending text messages to pre-programmed phone numbers, and then the phone starts nazvanivat on those numbers, and it all happens under the creepy, nasty and very loud roar.

 Screen

Monochrome screen with CP10 «grown and now has 3 lines of text + a line of official information on the status of the battery level, reception, etc. Illumination is the same - orange, even. Afternoon in the sun, it is invisible, but the screen is perfectly readable.

 At the bottom of the phone is a microphone and an ear for the strap.

 Menu
Control of the phone is very convenient and easy, but just in case proizvodiel staffed phone a colorful statement with a large font. Everything is intuitive. Of all the options available only to set the date and time, choose one of the two languages (Russian / English) and an alarm clock. The latter can be configured for a single call, either on weekdays. Can be set as ringtones one of 10 polyphonic melodies, written in memory of the phone. Unfortunately, his melodies can not be installed, and available quickly bored. Of the nice additions to the manufacturer includes a simple calculator.

Messages
Phone can send and receive only the most ordinary SMS messages. MMS and EMS is not supported. Sending is carried out as a single recipient, and en masse, with the choice of names from the phone book.

 Right - Switch flashlight, and turn it can be even when the phone is turned off, and switch the phone lock. Blocking was done somehow not logical. Will lock the phone unless you are in the main menu. In radio mode, by browsing the phone book or writing SMS lock the phone will not work.

Hours
Battery in the phone - it's forte. The battery capacity is 1000 mAh. The manufacturer claims that this is enough for 8 hours of talk time and 200 hours of standby time. Since the phone is devoid of any external features that are inherent in smart phones, then spend the battery is really not that besides the direct appointment of the phone. In my case - I found the battery manufacturer's charge and not charging the phone immediately began to use it. When talking about total of 70 minutes and 10 sent SMS phone worked 7 days to complete exhaustion. An excellent result.

Less:- Radio- Price
Pros:- Assembly- Battery- The size of the buttons and screen



Conclusion
If we evaluate this device as a phone for children or young people, it is rather suitable for the role of a second phone. Unlike the clumsy design models CP09, CP10 is a hint at the design and manufacturer of this suggests, logos showing off all sorts of awards and nominations, which won this phone. The assembly is just excellent, the phone does not creak and not play. Case material is pleasant to the touch. He did not soiled and leaves no trace on the touch. He is excellent in hand. And after touching begin to think about buying it, even though their phones are already so many that even though the museum opens. The only thing that may scare young people - a polyphonic ringtones. This is clearly not what people expect in 2011. So for the money, which asks a manufacturer, could equip the phone downloadable MP3 tunes, or at least pre-grade musical tunes.
As for older persons ", then all is good, but the factor of price. Competitors in the market is not small, for example: Texet, Voxtel, Fly. Moreover, our competitors bolsheknopochnyh phone prices are much lower. Interestingly, when all the while Just5 sell more and better. CP10 is clearly more intended for a younger generation that will buy the phone as a gift loved ones. Estimated cost of the phone is 3900 rubles. By calling itself the claims in this case, no, he's clean and simple, reliable and convenient. When using the phone is unlikely to cause problems with dial or inconvenience huge display. Speaker volume that would be enough even to talk on the subway. Offers even more options for body colors.
I really liked the phone CP10, but his relatives, I had already bought the previous model - CP09, which is almost a year has established itself as a very reliable phone, which never caused any problems.
