Sincerest apologies, it's been a month since the last post, but we are back online to bring you updates on E.Tel services, as well as the latest tech-peeks!
Just a quick update to fill in the gap, in case you've been left out the loop. HTC Sensation 4G is official and is believed to be released in the next couple of months riding on T-Mobile's AWS waves, but it's already up for pre-order in the UK. The BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9930 are out. Apple's iPad continues to reign in not only the private sector but now it seems as if they're taking over universities too. Meanwhile, NEC nutjob-scholars busied themselves by stuffing 370 lasers into 165km of fiber to achieve 101.7 Tbps speeds (like Sean Hollister said, if only "one end leads to our house"). Acer's Iconia tablets are also up for pre-order now and Sony tablets have been officially announced to hit stores soon. Let's pause here for a bit and observe a moment of silence - for all 77 million PSN accounts that have been compromised. May it be credit card details or platinum trophy collections, may the database rest in peace.
Back to the subject at hand. Researchers from Queen's University in Ontario, Canada have taken flexible smartphones in the most literal sense and manufactured an elastic phone. This PaperPhone that they have created actually operates on a bend-based UI, which is to say that every contortion has a function or navigation purpose. Despite its early stage in development, the lightweightedness of this device is certainly worth it to keep our eyes pealed. Check out the following demos for yourself: [Video 1] & [Video 2]. Stay tuned for further enchantment.
Simple is best!
