<img src="http://www.kyocera-wireless.com/image/phone-detail/phone_m6000.jpg" alt="phone_m6000.jpg" /> </p>

	<p>Zio (pronounced Z? -O) uses CDMA2000 1xEV-DO rev. A and Wi-Fi network technologies and features an impressive, high-resolution 3.5-inch <span class="caps">WVGA</span> motion-enhanced, touch-screen display as a backdrop for a fully customizable mobile multimedia experience. Along with the touch-screen, an intuitive, effortless trackball helps users navigate features such as the 3.2 MP camera with 30fps video record/playback, media player, full <span class="caps">HTML</span> web browser, Google Maps™ and countless widgets and applications such as Facebook, Twitter, Open Table and more available in Android Market . Zio offers substantial user-available internal memory (256MB) and supports an additional 32GB through its microSD memory slot.

<title><![CDATA[Nokia, Google,  T-Mobile, Yahoo, Dell and BBC Discuss Monetisation Strategies for Location Based Services]]></title>
<pubDate>Fri, 19 Mar 2010 10:15:51 +0100</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[<p>After years of hype, location-based services are gaining real traction with consumers and businesses alike. Innovation and investment is rampant, but one vital question remains: How should companies monetise location data and services?</p>

	<p>Gartner predicted that the number of subscribers using location-based services (<span class="caps">LBS</span>) globally would double in 2010, even as mobile device sales decline by 4%.</p>

	<p>The number of <span class="caps">LBS</span> subscribers is forecast to reach 95.7 million by the end of this year, up from 41 million in 2008. LBS-associated revenues will also more than double this year, reaching $2.2 billion, up from $998 million last year. However, the industry is struggling to identify the winning profit strategy.</p>

	<p>“The expected increase is due to the availability of GPS-enabled wireless phones, along with reductions in prices for services and the growth in application storefronts that offer location-aware software,” says Annette Zimmermann, a Gartner analyst, who will be keynoting the Location Business Summit in Amsterdam on April 28th – 29th.</p>

	<p>The industry also seems confident that 2010 is the year in which <span class="caps">LBS</span> will take off with consumers.</p>

	<p>“Location is everywhere,” says Fraser Campbell, <span class="caps">CEO</span> of Wcities. “Location-enhanced services are multiplying at an incredible pace. The key disrupting trends are platforms, convenience and personalisation.”</p>

	<p>Analyst predictions are also supported by serious investment in the industry. After Nokia’s $8.1 billon acquisition of mapping giant <span class="caps">NAVTEQ</span>, it is clear that location-based services are a top priority for the world’s largest phone manufacturer.</p>

	<p>Sylvain Grande, head of Places at Nokia, agrees, and stresses the importance of a seamless experience. “The companies that facilitate the interactions between the desktop and the mobile while connecting people, personalising their experience and making it effortless, will be a great value to the consumer.”</p>

	<p>Despite consumer adoption and investment, the clear profit models are yet to be defined. Location and context-enhanced advertising still attracts the most attention, but there is also a great interest in local search, location data mining and intelligence, revenue sharing models, the long tail of services, premium content and free services.</p>

	<p>The location industry will be convening to discuss the winning profit models on April 28th and 29th in Amsterdam at The Location Business Summit – Europe’s largest <span class="caps">LBS</span> conference.</p>

	<p>Osman Iqbal, Head of research at TheWhereBusiness and conference director, commented: “The demand for a high level <span class="caps">LBS</span> meeting in Europe has been absolutely phenomenal. It’s incredible that there isn’t a conference out there for an evolving industry that is bursting with players, investment and innovation.”</p>

	<p>With more than 200 attendees, the conference will be the business epicentre for high-ranking members in the <span class="caps">LBS</span> ecosystem. The fast evolving competitive landscape will be dissected by the leading industry figures, partnerships formed and vital decisions made on the future direction of companies.</p>

	<p>The industry’s elite will come together with more than fifty senior level speakers from Google, Yahoo!, T-Mobile, Vodafone, Microsoft Advertising, Nokia, Ogilvy, <span class="caps">BBC</span>, Dell Computers, Intel, Open Street Map, Orange FT, Opera Software, Penguin Books, Yelp, <span class="caps">KPN</span> and more.</p>

	<p>With a mix of mobile operators, advertising agencies, content providers, <span class="caps">LBS</span> service providers, mapping companies and device manufacturers attending, the Amsterdam conference will be the hub of the entire location ecosystem.</p>

<title><![CDATA[SPB Quads Game Comes To Symbian Touchscreen Phones]]></title>
<pubDate>Thu, 11 Mar 2010 18:17:10 +0100</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[<p><span class="caps">SPB</span> Software, a leading mobile applications and games developer announces the release of the Symbian version of <span class="caps">SPB</span> Quads – an extremely addictive mobile game created to help killing time with use. Now the users of touchscreen Symbian phones have a good way to spend 5 boring minutes in line or challenge their Windows Mobile and iPhone rivals&#8217; dominance in our online score table.</p>

	<p>Based on <span class="caps">SPB</span> Quadronica game, <span class="caps">SPB</span> Quads is the new arcade game for Symbian in which one has to put together all his/her pattern-finding skills to succeed. A player&#8217;s goal in this game is to reveal and mark rectangles&#8217; corners of the same colors in a field filled with color bricks, thus &#8220;destroying&#8221; them and earning scores. There are two modes in the game: a time-limited mode and an endless, &#8220;strategic&#8221; mode. This effectively creates two different scenarios of playing.</p>]]></description>
