Orange Customers To Get Apple iSlate
Apple is silently preparing to surprise the word with its table computer and man people were doubtful that it might be a rumour as no statement has come from Apple. But all the doubts are now clear, though, its still not done by Apple but by a telecom company which is going to be a partner for this tablet computer. One of the world's largest telecommunication services company France Telecom disclosed that Apple is going to launch its tablet size computer in few days. It will be a touchscreen device with a webcam in it.
Apple provide its services under the well-known brand Orange which is mainly based in Europe and Africa and is the fifth largest telecom company in the world. France Telecom's second in command and owner of Orange Stephen Richard made it clear that Orange customers will get the privilege to use Apple iSlate. Orange has always liked to be associated with Apple and its clear from the fact that before this also company wanted to do an exclusive arrangement with Apple to sell its iPhone in France but the nation's government didn't allow this. Still Orange sold 200,000 iPhones in December and it also did an agreement with Apple to bring its iPhone 3G for its Orange UK customers.
Apple is hopeful of making its touchscreen compatible with the Verizon Network and its also been speculated that whether it'll offer its iSlate on subsidized and non-subsidized rates to its customers or not. But Orange is hopeful of getting these iSlates on discounted prices for its customers, though, no mention of pricing was made.

New Cadillac from GM, profitability on charts
Recharged by the bailout, General Motors (GM) is all set to come up with the highly anticipated battery-operated, Cadillac version car named Chevy Volt. The company plans to come up with the car somewhere around 2013.
The car, the company claims, would be able to run for 40 miles on its battery alone. The car would be priced somewhere between $40,000, which GM Vice Chairman Bob Lutz believes, the customers would be more than willing to pay. Lutz said that the Voltec technology, to be used in the new Cadillac version, is for those “who don't mind paying a large price for a luxury vehicle.” The company expects that the car would see a high cost of production. The battery itself would be costing around $15,000. Thus, the company believes that the car would be priced nothing less than $40,000.
The car will be built on the carmaker’s system of combining lithium-ion battery pack with a traditional engine as backup. The car is second-in-line with GM’s plug-in hybrid system of cars, which the company started using after losing its leadership position last year. It had showcased last year, during the Detroit Auto Show, Converj. However, it’s yet to roll out the car from its shed. But Chevy Volt is expected to go on for sales this November itself. The company said that it would be producing only 50,000-60,000 units on an annual basis.
Meanwhile speaking to the Society of Automotive Analysts just before the Detroit Auto Show, Bob Lutz said that the automaker should be “solidly profitable” when the sales figures reach normal levels. Lutz reiterated Chairman and CEO Ed Whitacre's prediction that GM could hand in a profit this year. “Our balance sheet is in the best shape that it's been in decades,” Lutz said.
GM is hoping to make its name count in the hybrid arena with launch of Volt.

Most powerful Android Smartphone-Nexus One
1Ghz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor ensuring a supersonic speed, Android Mobile Technology Platform 2.1 software(OS),Noise-reduction ability, et al who could be the other choice apart from “Google”. Introducing the Smart phone-Nexus One. A supersonic jet phone from Google. A touch of eccentricity with its spiffy design, Teflon coating at the back evading the dust off this elegant phone. A 3.7 inch, 480-by-800-pixel AMOLED (active matrix organic light emitting diode) touch screen make its presence vibrant, a 5 MP camera with LED flash with an ability to capture video at 720-by-480 pixels at a minimum of 20 frames per second. Nexus one comes in handy for all those who intend to have a bird’s eye on their phone round the clock as the tricolour trackball glows when you have messages or notices.
We talk of speed and this is what the supposedly most powerful Android device has to bestow-Android 2.1 software the top version of the mobile operating system from Google, which adds features like new home screen panels and interactive wallpaper. The Nexus One is the only other big-name smart phone, along with HTC HD2, to be equipped with the powerful 1 GHz Snapdragon processor, the fastest processor yet to run on a phone. Its speed seems such, that it provides a halo effect that really heightens the pleasure of using the Nexus One. Research has shown that the processor makes a big difference and makes Android run very smoothly. The surprises do not end here.
Google's Nexus One has a voice-enabled keyboard for all text fields. One can speak a text message, tweet, or mail, via voice. It can also search Google, call contacts, or get driving directions by just speaking into the phone. This ubiquitous feature is best in the lot as it works virtually on any text field. Also, Nexus One comes with a noise-reduction feature that cancels out the background noise during phone calls. Of course! Being Google has its own advantages.
Priced at $529 this phone boasts the backing of the some major networks across the globe(T-Mobile, Verizon in US and Vodafone in UK). Unlike its rivals this phone can be unlocked from any GSM carrier, or can be purchased with a two-year contract from T-Mobile at $179.
It seems the long wait has eventually paid off, Nexus one (even if it is named after a robot in Blade Runner.) certainly is the best Android phone yet. The design magnificence of HTC, the best- in- league processor and many bests to count upon! Nexus One still has to stand the rigour of its rivals.
