Sony stand up to Apple with a new device

Sony stand up to Apple with a new device

Sony is the latest company to join the war on the ground of the smartphone, as it is in the process of developing a new device that will compete with the iPhone and iPod Apple's touch.

The shift in the video game industry into a more appealing business model and increased supply as the App Store for those of Cupertino, has set off the alarm in the Japan's seat of the firm, which has seen falling sales of its portable game consoles.

Not only that, but the lack of leadership in the field of mobile telephony hand of its joint venture with the Swedish multinational Ericsson, seems to have led both brands to a standstill in the mobile phone market to the point of not presenting a device in years that really grabs the attention of users. (# )

Totally out of this, sales of Apple's players seem to have dented the figures for digital Walkman players sold in recent years , which Sony may have become a personal affront, like a torpedo in full waterline flagship concerned.

But back to the field that interests us, according to initial reports, the device would be ready for marketing in the course of this year and be part of a new line of products from which is also a new invention that would compete directly with Apple iPad, trying to eliminate the barriers between netbooks, e-readers and portable game consoles.

In the light of events and despite the reluctance of many users to the new Apple devices, it seems that the industry is choosing to focus follow the lead of the products marketed by the house on the block. You just be expectant to see if Sony is able to offer that "something more" that turned the tables on the market today.

The first of these, like the aforementioned and Liquid Acer, Android 2.1 has some benefits besides Éclair somewhat higher than those of his fellow-end and an outward appearance identical to that of Acer NeoTouch P400.

The user has a resistive touch screen 3.2-inch HVGA and resolution of 320 x 480 pixels to interact with the device, counting also with a 3.2 megapixel camera with flash with a number of possibilities, among which was the recording of QVGA-quality video for subsequent loading onto YouTube.

Archos Phone Tablet, this time the tablet is not the reverse phone

It seems that developments in the technology world is a path of return. Both worth a phone is made tablet, as some rumors suggest that Apple as a tablet to become phone.

In the latter case it is reportedly the model Archos 5 multimedia tablet and access to appears to receive Internet telephone functions. This change was announced in Autumn 2009 and was expected to CES, but the ESC happened. Maybe in the MWC in Barcelona we see it.

Our source notes as "signal" of its imminent launch of the presence of a sheath (like next release) for the Tablet Archos Phone (French casually as Archos) Noreve website.

pulling specifications are supposed to keep Android as the operating system and added about 3.5 G connectivity to WiFi and Bluetooth the current model.

The touchscreen will be 4.3 inches with a resolution 854 × 480 and will be "moved" by an ARM Cortex processor to 1 GHz for memory, there are three models 16, 32 and 64 GB.

We see that There is nothing dramatically new, we already have similar equipment on the market as the HTC HD2. What seems significant is that devices are added to categories not yet defined and where the priority seems to be the data connection and "coincidentally" also used to talk on the phone.

So waiting for what happens on the 27th with Apple manufacturers are moving sheet, each "tablet" and others "supertabletas" screens around 4 inches and others around 8, but all with a SIM inside.
