iPad, iPhone, notebook, Netbook: A gadget glut?

by Brooke Crothers What is the tipping point for having too many gadgets? Well, it depends. First, let me count the ways I can be connected: a couple of MacBooks, an iPad 3G, an iPhone 3GS, an old HP tower, and, if I need it, a BlackBerry Storm 2 (though Wi-Fi access only for the BlackBerry, as I recently discontinued service). That covers most of what I use everyday. (And I know people that add a Netbook to a similar mix of devices.) Of course, I got to this state of excess voluntarily. Nobody held a gun to my head. That said, on most days--in myriad ways I won't go into here--this entourage of devices enhances productivity and sustains the computer-related hobbies I have. But on the bad days it's get-thee-to-an-IT-department--at least, that's the feeling. Compounding glitches can hit critical mass in minutes. Read the complete article on CNET.com

Tweens get savvy with gadgets

Image
Tweens are more technologically savvy and count the internet as a source of happiness, research shows. Today's six- to 12-year-olds are laden with gadgets their older siblings could only have dreamed about – two-thirds of them own mobile phones and iPods. Almost half of the 1200 children who completed the Tween Tracker survey have Facebook profiles, despite being under the site's minimum age of 13. Two-thirds reported surfing the web without supervision. Social media expert Laurel Papworth describes Facebook as the online equivalent of a "keep out, I mean it!" sign on the bedroom door, allowing kids to shut parents out while sharing with friends – an enticing prospect at an age when they are developing their own identities. Parents failed to "make good arguments why one web page is better than another" and why internet use needed to be monitored. "Managing how they connect is a better option than saying 'don't connect at all'," she said...

Are you Apple-compatible?

If aliens were to come and visit us one of these days, they would notice an endless number of peculiar things. One of them would be the long lines of people waiting outside Apple stores all over the Earth, itching to get Steve Jobs’ latest hot gadgets. We buy them as if they were just what we have been waiting for. We’re busy getting used to having the new technology in our hands every day, then we start pointing out the inconveniences of these gadgets that once seemed so perfect. We get tired of them. And right about then, yet another amazing device is introduced to us, and the whole process is repeated. This culture is perfectly fine, especially considering the unique characteristics of Apple products. For those who simply don’t get what the iPad is, one could explain that it’s basically a gigantic iPod Touch. For those unfamiliar with the iPod Touch, here are the basics that one must not leave out when discussing the iPad: First, you must know that when the device is turned off and ...

Among Atlanta AT&T gadgets, medical message in a bottle

Image
Sometime this fall, patients are going to head home from the pharmacy with a free, flashing, noisy tattletale of a pill bottle. The bottle will glow and ring aloud when it’s time to take a pill. And it will report slackers: A pill-skipper can expect at least one robotic telephone call per missed dose. Insurers, drug makers and pharmacies will pay for the bottle, on the grounds that it will keep people healthier and sell more pills. And benefiting quietly in the background will be Atlanta-based AT&T Mobility, whose wireless system supports the bottle's smarts. The dispenser is one of a group of products targeted by the company’s emerging devices team, in an effort to expand the reach of AT&T's wireless business. Connected devices such as the pill bottle are a different kind of business than traditional cellphone contracts. But the cellphone market is almost saturated, with brand new cellphone customers now few and far between. Connecting devices will allow AT&T to gr...

Top 25 Android apps: The best of the best

Image
The Android Market may not have as many apps as the iPhone App Store yet, but there are still enough to be overwhelmed, and it’s growing at a breakneck pace. To help you sort through them all, here’s my list of the best apps I’ve found on Android. Again, remember that this is a snapshot in time. The Android platform is developing so quickly right now that I guarantee my home screen look different a month from now. The list 1. Google Voice Google Voice is a service that is so useful I consider it one of the top benefits of Android itself, especially since Apple rejected the Google Voice app for the iPhone. It gives you a phone number that can ring to multiple places or devices and it allows you to access all of your voicemail and text messages over the Web. The Android app integrates even deeper. It can make outgoing calls look like they’re coming from your Google Voice number so that you can keep your real mobile number private. 2. Advanced Task Killer One of the realities of having a ...

Apple Hires Expert on Mobile Payments

Image
Over the last decade Apple has expanded into a number of industries besides computers, including music, mobile phones, movies and books. Now Apple could be going after something else: cash. As first reported by Near Field Communications World, a trade publication, Apple recently hired Benjamin Vigier, an expert in the mobile payments industry who works with a technology called near field communication. According to his LinkedIn profile, Mr. Vigier is now Apple’s product manager for mobile commerce. Before joining Apple he worked with a company called mFoundry, developing mobile payment services for PayPal and Starbucks, and also worked on a project called the mobile wallet. Near field communication, or NFC, acts like the standard R.F.I.D. chips that are used to scan passports or credit cards today. When an NFC chip is placed within a short range of an NFC reader, the two gadgets can send small pieces of information back and forth. This can be used to perform simple credit transactions,...
