Microsoft has confirmed if Windows Phone7 will released on 11 October. But not yet jumped into the market, mobile operating system has been haunted by a number of threats.

Here are 7 issues that would block the action assessed Windows Phone 7:

1. No Multitasking
Predicted full multitasking capabilities will not be a mecca Windows Phone 7. This also makes Microsoft’s considered to be less sensitive to what users want.

2. Android Domination
Google Android practically the middle of driving the current trend of smart phones. There have been many vendors are attracted to carry. As a result, it was difficult to distract the market is still stuck with Google’s OS. The opportunity to steal the attention of course will always be there for Windows 7 Phone, just not easy.

3. Motorola Case
Last week, Motorola sued Microsoft because the accused had violated the patent on Android phones besutannya. Given this demand, Microsoft and Motorola’s relationship clearly become strained. That is, it will be difficult to achieve cooperation between the two, including to immerse in Windows 7 Phone Motorola phone.

This is certainly very unfortunate, especially bergeliat Motorola began back in the realm of the smart phone so the inclusion of Windows 7 Phone in line of smartphones will be enough to raise prestige of Motorola’s mobile OS’s.

4. Still Seeking Partner
Android chased many phone vendors to become partners. But for Windows 7 Phone, it’s still a mystery where the only vendor who is ready to release a phone with this OS. Indeed, there are several vendors that will reinforce staying digadang Windows Phone 7. Among other things, HTC and LG. The others?

5. Failure of Kin
This is what seems to be one serious blow to Microsoft when working in the handheld device business. They whiz phone – Kin – unexpectedly short-lived. Kin gait is far from word success. It could be this could impact on the market stigma and self-confidence of the software giant.

6. Coffee Paste
This is a highly anticipated feature, but unfortunately also reportedly not accommodated by the Windows Phone 7. As a result, users are once again disappointed.

7. Supporting Applications
For the pursuit of wealth owned by Apple’s application, a BlackBerry, and it’s Android will also be a tough task for the Windows Phone 7. It takes fortitude Microsoft in embracing and nurturing the developers to want to create applications for Windows 7 Phone support.

After being acquired by Yahoo for about two months ago, users of location-based social networking, Koprol, double.Internet will play a more important part in people’s lives in Indonesia, both in the classrooms, work environment and their social lives.

not only doubled, the activity of its users has also increased, even up to three-fold. Even in cities outside Jakarta, the increase in the number of users can achieve five-fold.

Forward will be expected to increase even more in line with the decrease of tariff data provided telecommunications operators, mobile phone prices in Indonesia.

When juxtaposed with data acquisition tumble Yahoo users, ie 75 thousand users, then the numbers tumble users currently estimated around 150 thousand people. Somerset also continue to improve services, by introducing a new feature that is curator feature, which allows users to introduce new locations are credible with certain conditions.

Currently somersault has been providing mobile application for the BlackBerry platform, and immediately provides the java platform and can be accessed on mobile phones popular in the homeland such as the Nokia C3, or Nexian.
The aim is to enable more people to enjoy a tumble – whatever handset they use. Going forward, we will provide more applications on other platforms

Sony proves that optical storage media is still far from retirement. Although Blu-ray is difficult to penetrate markets dominated by the DVD format, according to the Examiner reports, Sony is now working on next-generation optical media.

In collaboration with researchers from Tohoku University, Japan, Sony has developed a blue-violet semiconductor laser ultra-fast which allows for 1 terabyte of data, equivalent to 1000 Gigabyte stored on optical media piece. As an illustration, a single-chip data disc is able to accommodate as many as 106 pieces of dual-layer DVD.

Optical technology that uses blue-violet laser that can produce a new type of short pulses or shots in a matter of pico seconds or equal to one per one trillion seconds.

In addition, laser semiconductor and semiconductor optical amplifiers also allow new power up to 100 watts output. A hundred times more compared with conventional semiconductor laser shots.

This latest development is a picoseconds laser pulses with laser wavelengths that reach 405 nanometers (the wavelength equal to Blue-ray) in the blue-violet region.

Sony says, it is able to make short pulses of laser optics in a very fast duration i.e. 3 Pico seconds with output reaching 100 watts peak power and repetition frequency up to 1GHz.

Both these institutions, Sony and Tohoku University states that the system they created obviate the need for large-sized light source and a special technician to run the laser with a similar quality.

For information, April and Blue-ray Disc Association announced improvements in technology formats including Blu-ray disc capable of storing up to 128GB.

However, less than a month later, researchers from the University of Tokyo claim to have found a new material a cheap and easy to manufacture is capable of storing up to 25TB in a piece of the disc.

Currently more and more competition in the tablet market is heating up. Companies are increasingly competing device makers make Slate or tablets that can compete with Apple’s iPad. One of them is Samsung, which plans to create a tablet-based Android operating system.

According to reports from Reuters, Samsung plans to launch the tablet PC in the third quarter of this year to compete with the iPad and other tablets that use Windows as the case may be launched also by Microsoft. Samsung tablet output, this could be called “Galaxy Tab”. So far, Samsung is using the brand of the Galaxy for its Android-based products.

Is a bit unique, Tab Galaxy will use the screen 7-inch or 2 inches larger than Dell’s Streak, but smaller than the iPad. There is no official information about this tablet, but the possibility of using the Android version 2.2 or commonly called Froyo.

However, the site launched Electronista, Samsung Galaxy Tabs may use the Super AMOLED screen that will provide quality images with high resolution and contrast ratio is very high so it can be seen in the outer room with a beam of sunlight. Moreover, this tablet uses 1.2GHz processor, has two cameras, front VGA resolution camera and behind the camera with a resolution of 3.2 MP, and 16 GB of internal memory and microSDHC external memory slot.
