Apple has signed an agreement with several New York retailers that sold the fake Apple store in Flushing.

Under the agreement, which was presented at a New York District Court on Thursday, owners of Apple's history and the Fun Zone stores to supply all their fake Apple products within five days after its approval. Apple will then destroy the items.

How would Apple know they have it? The agreement stipulates that "the parties must work together to identify the documents and things to be delivered."

The owners, Janice and Jimmy Chiang Kwok Po, and other unnamed John is doing, you must also stop the name of Apple, so Apple is more of a story. These products include headphones, cases, and branded with the Apple logo.

Intel CEO Touts And Ultrabooks Chip 'Haswell'



SAN FRANCISCO--Intel Chief Executive Officer Paul Otellini said Ultrabooks will realize Intel's vision of the "complete" computing experience and spoke about an upcoming power-efficient chip for Ultrabooks.

"The Ultrabook is our vision that delivers the complete computing experience...more responsive, engaging," said Otellini, speaking today at the company's developer conference in San Francisco. "Implications of the Ultrabook are huge," he said.


Ultrabooks are very light, thin Windows laptops that Intel and PC vendors hope will compete effectively with the MacBook Air. Meant to emulate tablets in some respects, Ultrabooks are also designed to have instant-on capability and a relatively long battery life despite their compact size.

"It will be affordable," Otellini said, touching on an imperative for Ultrabooks. What affordable means is not clear but generally this means under $1,000. Most analysts believe that's the maximum cutoff to be competitive with Apple's MacBook Air.

And Microsoft's upcoming Windows 8 will be the software catalyst that helps transform the personal computing experience, Otellini said. The operating system will run on both tablets and laptops.


Two chips will accelerate the evolution of the Ultrabook, Otellini said. The first is Ivy Bridge--due to ship early next year--the follow-on to the widely-used Sandy Bridge processor. The second is Haswell, which is expected to be Intel's first complete system-on-a-chip--not unlike what competing ARM chip suppliers use in smartphones--for mainstream computing.

Haswell will reduce "platform power" by factor of 20, he said. "All-day usage, 10 days of standby."

Google's Andy Rubin also made an appearance to announce a "continuation" of its partnership with Intel. To this end, Intel showed off its Medfield Atom chip in a smartphone running the Android Honeycomb OS.

Intel showed Medfield smartphones that are expected in the first half 2012, Otellini said.

Aha Integrates Applications For Ferrari

At the International Motor Show in Frankfurt, showed Harman International Aha app integration is developed for Ferrari. It's a big-name customer to a product little known, and could announce the future implementation Aha with other manufacturers.

Aha CNET given an exclusive look at the performance before the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Using the iPhone on the App Oh, and the combined amount of CPU Ferrari cloud-based services have become available, such as Slacker, Yelp, Twitter, and traffic. If you touch the sound card of the main unit display Aha, a list of services is a vertical menu.

Choose Slacker starts a flow of music from the service, and displays an interface that can mark favorites or ban the song being played. The interface allows you to choose one of the channels Slacker DJ Commissioner or a custom channel, similar to Pandora.

Yelp implementation is heavily modified. Instead, users may have access to any word, Aha includes two search box, one of the other restaurants and cafes. Restaurant Search button just says "I'm hungry," the company the option to make comprehensible to most users.

And this research are much wiser than those obtained from the Yelp iPhone application. Rather than simply display all the results within your current location, see the implementation Aha under the current car. It receives only the results that are close to current path of the vehicle ahead, read them aloud to the driver. To minimize driver distraction, Aha returns only a handful of results. When the driver is hit, the address in the navigation system with a tap.

The search function instead of coffee as well, suggesting how they could implement more research Aha still useful for a pilot.

When the driver presses the button of traffic, the system also limits the results of the path, taking into account the direction of the car. The system reads the road disturbance to the driver.

As with other services, Aha, Aha-centered implementation of Facebook and Twitter for audio rather than text. When a driver chooses Facebook, the head unit will read the updates that show alone initially entered the update. The driver would be able to post tweets to do with the current location of the car or other variables.

During the demonstration, a representative said today Aha Ferrari has no plans to offer integrated management unit in an application model to production. But buying interest in the cloud services, the Ferrari's lack of experience in the area, and demonstrating that the probable production application.

DoCoMo: Apple lawsuit won't block Japan Samsung tablet

NTT DoCoMo's CEO said Thursday that the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Tab next month will not be affected by a patent-infringement lawsuit by Apple.

Such lawsuits from Apple, which allege patent infringements related to its iPad tablet, have blocked or delayed sales of Samsung's tablet across Europe, Australia, and Korea.

"We have heard from Samsung that there will be no obstruction to sales," said DoCoMo chief Ryuji Yamada. "We have been told that the patent situation is different in Europe and Japan."

Yamada spoke to reporters at an event to mark the launch of the tablet on its high-speed LTE network next month, along with a tablet from Fujitsu. He said tablets, until now grouped into the same product category as smartphones, will be a main focus for the company moving forward.

Apple has brought lawsuits against Samsung in courts around the world for patent infringments related to its smash-hit iPad tablet.

In Japan, Apple sued Japanese units of Samsung for damages of 1 billion yen ($13 million) in a Tokyo court, Japanese media reported.

Calls to Apple's Japan offices went unanswered. A Samsung employee that answered the phone at their Tokyo office said the company's spokesperson was unavailable Thursday evening.

China's Alibaba takes aim at Baidu in Internet search

China's largest e-commerce company Alibaba Group entered the search engine business so that China's leading search engine, Baidu, wouldn't sleep well, Alibaba CEO Jack Ma said over the weekend.

"If Baidu sleeps well then China's Internet users won't sleep well," Ma said during a speech at the company's annual Alifest this weekend.

Alibaba, best known for its Chinese e-commerce websites, launched a beta version of its new search engine last year called eTao.com. This put the company in competition with Baidu, which dominates China's search engine market with an 80 percent user market share, according to CNZZ.com, an Internet analytics web site.

Ma's comment was one of the first times Alibaba has publicly spoken about its intentions for eTao. In June, eTao was made into its own company under Alibaba Group.

Following Ma's comment, Baidu spokesman Kaiser Kuo said the company never obsesses with what its rivals are doing, but instead obsesses with what its usesr want. "As long as we are able to deliver that, we will sleep just fine," he said.

Both Alibaba and Baidu are the leaders in their respective markets. But even as Alibaba dominates China's e-commerce scene, many of the country's Internet users rely on Baidu to search for products online, according to analysts.

Alibaba's eTao site has been designed primarily as a shopping search engine, allowing users to query for products and group-buying deals. But the site also allows users to search for general web pages as well. eTao's market share, however, is so small that research firms don't list it.

Alibaba's eTao site launched months after Google decided to shut down its search engine for mainland China last year, a move that allowed Baidu to expand its market share to the point it has a near monopoly. Last month, the company faced criticism from a Chinese state-run television network in what analysts said was an effort by authorities to regulate the search giant.

Names Of The WTC Memorial, Organized By The Algorithm

Obama today joined thousands of people to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center site in New York, laying his hand on a bronze monument bears the names of the victims - a list organized by algorithm.

The 2983 names of 76 bronze panels around two swimming pools with waterfalls in the towers stood, in the design of architect Michael Arad "The absence of reflection." In a list of apparently random panels of those who died September 11, 2001, and the World Trade Center bombing of February 26, 1993.

But the monument to the victims carefully thought reflects a complex network of relationships with others - professional, social, and accidentally. This happened thanks to an algorithm created by an artist data Jer Thorp in New York City local design projects.

Steve Jobs, CEO, Who Was Fired From His First Job




Inspiring speech excerpts from the start by Steve Jobs at Stanford University June 12, 2005.

In fact, I never had a college degree, and is closer than ever I graduated from college. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life.

Best decision I ever made

The first story is the issue of points. The ped out of Reed College in the first six months of the year. Why? Well, it started before I was born. My biological mother was a young bachelor, and decided to put me up for adoption.

She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, but my biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from university and my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She said only a few months later, when my parents promised that I would go to college.

This was the beginning of my life. And 17 years later, I went to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all my savings of the working class parents were spent on my college tuition. After six months I could not see the value in it. So I decided that. It was pretty scary at times, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made.

It was not all romantic. I did not have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in the halls friends. I returned Coke bottles for the five cent deposits to buy food, and I'll walk the seven miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I liked it. And much of what I found by following my curiosity and intuition has proven invaluable in the future.

Let me give you an example: I decided to take a calligraphy class at Reed College and learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations. None of this had even a hope of practical application in my life. But ten years later, when designing the first Macintosh computer, it all made sense to me. If I ever ped, ped never on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.

Love and loss

My second story is about love and loss. Woz (Steve Wozniak) and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown up in a society of two billion dollars with over 4,000 employees. We just released our finest creation of the Macintosh a year ago, and then I got fired.

I really did not know what to do for a few months. I felt I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down. I even thought to leave the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me: I always liked what I did. Turn of events at Apple had not changed a bit and I decided to start over.

Successful pregnancy has been replaced by the lightness of a beginner again, less sure about everything. I am free to enter one of the most creative periods of my life. During the five years I started a company named NeXT another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would be my wife. A significant turnaround, Apple bought NEXT and I retuned to Apple. I'm sure none of this would have happened if I had not been fired from Apple.

I am convinced that the only thing that forced me to take I liked what I did. Your work will fill a large part of his life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what they do a good job. If you have not found it yet, keep looking until you find. Do not stop.

If today were the last day of life

The third story is about death. When I was 17 I read a quote that went something like this: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll certainly be right." I was impressed, and from that moment, the past 33 years, I looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, I would like to do, what I'm about to do today?" And whenever the answer is "No" too many days in a row I know I need to change something.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. A year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. The doctors told me it was incurable and that I should expect to live longer than 3-6 months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, as is the medical code for "prepare to die. "I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy and was told that he turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had surgery, and thankfully I'm fine now.

It was the closest, I was faced with death. Having had the experience, I can now tell you a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept: No one wants to die. Death is probably the best invention of life unique. It erases the old to make way for the new. Currently, the new is you, but someday not too far from now, you will gradually grow old and be cleared. Your time is limited, so do not live the life of someone. Do not let the noise of others' opinions stifle your inner voice.

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog created by a fellow named Stewart Brand and brought to life with his poetic touch. In the back of their final issue was a photograph of a road in the early morning, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous. Underneath were the words: "Stay Hungry. Madness." It was their farewell message.

And I've always wanted for myself. And now, when you go to start over, I hope for you. Stay Hungry. Stay foolish.

Dragon Age: Origins Will Ship Without SecuROM




It seems that EA has had just enough with users complaining about the protection software: the PC version of Dragon Age: Origins will be released without the dreaded SecuROM.

Chris Priestly, Community Coordinator at Bioware announced:

“We’re happy to announce that the boxed/retail PC version of Dragon Age: Origins will use only a basic disk check and it will not require online authentication. In other words, the retail PC version of the game won’t require you to go online to authenticate the game for offline play. We have chosen not to use SecuROM in any version of Dragon Age that is distributed by EA or BioWare.”

In addition, Priestly announced what everyone has been expected, since we are talking about EA: “a ton” of downloadable content to be ready after the release of the games, plus a reminder that the Dragon Age toolset beta has already been made available.

Dragon Age: Origins will be released this fall on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.
The real India lives in its villages and smaller towns and therein lies the future of India. Rural India constitutes 69 percent of India’s population, and 86 percent of the rural population earns less than Rs 100 per day.

Here are some highlights from the IMRB/I-Cube report (as of March 2008) ; India’s ‘Rural population: 568m; Rural Literate Population: 368m; Rural English-Speaking Population: 63m; Rural Computer Literates: 15.1m; Rural Claimed Internet Users: 5.5m; Active internet users: 3.3m The opportunity is that there are more mobile phones than Radio in Rural India (100million subscriber base).

Rural India has been ignored for more than 60 years and the cloud will bring the change that is required to bridge the divide between rural India and urban India and will improve the Indian rural economy.

The government of India through BSNL (Bharat Sanchar Nigam Ltd) is providing broadband connectivity up to the Taluka level which makes data connectivity a reality for rural India. This will allow rural India to log into the cloud.

Cloud is Gandhi Engineering

The term “Gandhi engineering" was used by NY Times in an article on the Tata’s Nano and it defines Gandhi Engineering as “a mantra that combines irreverence toward established ways with a scarcity mentality that spurns superfluities”
The cloud computing is a marvel of Gandhi engineering and encompasses Low cost ; High operational efficiency ; Elasticity and Scalability.

Advantages of cloud computing for rural India
• Low start-up costs make cloud computing especially attractive for rural India.
• Ease of management. No worry about keeping licenses or for that matter power and air-conditioning to run the data centers or purchasing additional hardware.
• Scalability make rapid rural penetration a reality; one can easily expand the number of users and locations at a modest cost .
• Device and location independence. The way you access a cloud could be your desktop. It could be someone else's computer. It could be a mobile phone. It could be a solar powered touch pad.
• Lastly the BSNL broadband project for rural India will provide the data connectivity.

Why Rural India Needs A National Plan For Cloud Computing?


Cloud is a disruptive technology, and many people will benefit from applications faster, cheaper, better and more reliable in the cloud. Exploited in the right way, a cloud can help the government to provide new service models which in turn stimulate growth and reduce costs. However, this could happen, it is important to get educated key stakeholders, to educate government leaders in the second phase, and then identify the cloud of a national strategy. If this happens in the right direction, cloud matures into a commodity to reduce the price of services.

Cloud rural India

The real India lives in its villages and small towns, and here is the future of India. Rural India forms 69 per cent of India's population, and 86 percent of the rural population earns less than Rs 100 per day.

Some highlights of the report IMRB / I-Cube (from March 2008), the rural population of India: 568 m; rural literacy: 368m, rural English population: 63 million, in rural computing: 15,100,000 ; rural Internet users said: 5.5 m; active Internet users: 3.3 m The opportunity is that there are more mobile phones in rural India Radio (100 million subscribers).

The rural India has been ignored for over 60 years and the cloud will bring the change needed to close the gap between rural and urban India in India and improve the economy of India in rural areas.

Sprint Offers Unlimited Data For IPhone 5?


5 Apple iPhone is coming to Sprint, and when you start, customers can get unlimited data for this report from Bloomberg today.

In reference to "people familiar with the matter," Bloomberg reports that Sprint plans to offer unlimited data plans with the long-rumored iPhone from 5 to "separate" from AT & T and Verizon, the carrier currently selling the iPhone Apple 4th The sources also told Bloomberg that the iPhone will be available on five Sprint network in mid-October, although they do not give a specific date.

Rumors that Sprint will bring the iPhone has been swirling for 5 months. In July, Piper Jaffray analyst Chris Larsen said the time has finally come for Apple to offer its smartphone, Sprint, T-Mobile as well.

"Although it remains uncertain about the specifications of the features of the iPhone and next generation, we believe that the most noticeable change is the capability to machine multiple networks, including Sprint and T-Mobile USA United States, "Larsen said in a research note. His comments followed a different note Citadel analyst Yin Shing, who said in July that Apple will begin selling the iPhone for Sprint customers later this year.

Google To Apologize This Week's Power Outage Docs


Google has officially apologized this week for Google Docs outage.

On Wednesday, Google Docs - Web search giant Productivity Suite, a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation graphics and design service app - it went down. Statement, Google said it was "aware" of the problem, and worked as a resolution. About an hour later the service was reported.

Writing in the company blog, Google engineering director, Alan Warren, said the company was "very sad", adding that the service was beaten by a "memory management error" that has been discussed below one update the Docs feature real-time collaboration.

Warren explained it this way:

Each time a Google Doc is changed, the machine looks for the server update. Because of the memory management bug that has search engines that do not recycle their memory properly after each broadcast, forcing them to run out of memory and reboot. "

Warren went on to say that when these machines to be restarted, causing more problems followed by the server service is wrong, "much of the process of requests for paper lists, documents, drawings and scripts which led to the break seen on Wednesday."

In an attempt to avoid court time that will affect Google Docs again, Warren said the search giant has developed an "action list" that will be used in the future. These measures, he said, are designed to "reduce the risk of a future event, reduce the time to notice and solve a problem and limit the scope of which can affect only one problem."

Rafe Needleman CNET describes the flaw, which was as short as a blow to the growth of cloud computing, or at least a reminder of his brilliant safety nets are in order:

Yes, it is certain that Google engineers have brought the system back up within a fairly short, probably faster than any lack of IT personnel department was able to react to a similar ruling in a local system. And we can say there is no loss of data. But if it's your job to worry about the productivity of a business, you should think of a worse case than they - and not be able to do something when, for example, 10,000 workers suddenly slowed technology a single failure. Is it useful?

Google is not alone this week to see its online services affected by an outage.

Last night, Office 365, Hotmail SkyDrive and Windows Live services were down for three hours. Microsoft has announced that the downtime was due to the Domain Name System (DNS) problem.

IPhone Is The Most Power At The Home Depot Rival Lowe

You can use the iPhone to check email, watch videos on the internet, play computer games, made amazingly, video chat with distant relatives, and countless other activities of the new millennium. And now you can use to drive nails or toilets.

Well, not really. But almost. Bloomberg says that the do-it-yourself chain Lowe's is to give the 42 000 employees, and our beloved gadgets help staff to help customers find and buy the hammer right, Taps, the color of the house painted, or different other elements.

The phones will be part of a system much like the manufacturer uses an Apple iPhone in its stores, the blog of The Next Web says. They will replace the old weapons and allow employees to scan Lowe working on the ground to check the product information, see (and show) relevant videos and hear lowes.com. Finally, the units will be equipped to deal with credit and debit card transactions and allowed to call, email and SMS.

If this continues, you may never hear the words "Reserve", a ringing sound system. Another object of value, lost cultural to new technologies.

The project is a response to the store iPhone dominant rival Lowe, who gave Motorola phones to its employees last year, reports Bloomberg.

Lowe has also launched an online tool called MyLowes that allow customers to store and organize manuals, warranties, paint colors, and other data, the news agency. In addition, the home improvement chain is launching 72 000 computer monitors, flat panel display, and the addition of Wi-Fi for buyers. Last month it launched the iPhone, iPad and a Spanish version of its website.

Adobe Updates The Tool Edge For Encoding Web Easier More Information:

Adobe Systems has released the first update to the Edge is a tool that allows companies benefit from a growing number of Web standards and available to be able to publish web applications.

Adobe released a preview version of the advantage in July and promised to frequent changes in the way to a full version of 2012. "This update has focused on the fit and finish - many bug fixes and enhancements to existing features that we think make the product are much easier to use," Adobe said in a post on the forum.

The tool has the potential to bring some experience in the design Adobe substantially to the difficulty of making websites that are not flashy actually using Flash. However, some experts have criticized the approach of the advantage of Web coding, such as lack of support for the new drawing "web" HTML5 2D technology.

Adobe Carousel Turns Sharing Photos Just For Apple Fans


When Adobe asked users about their photo sharing pain points, it generated some buzz about an expected Cloud solution. And today it delivered. Adobe Carousel automatically uploads, stores and syncs photos from all your devices--as long as they're from Apple--and lets you create shareable galleries (Carousels). When shared, you and they can edit and apply special effects to the photos nondestructively.

(Aside: Adobe PR denies that the name Carousel was inspired by the Kodak Carousel slide projector.)

It sounds neat on the surface, and it's based around solid goals--"People want ubiquitous access to photo libraries; to browse, adjust, and share all their photos from anywhere; to share a photo library with friends and family; and simple, easy-to-live-with setup." But I think there's an unstated goal here as well. Photoshop.com already meets a lot of these needs and the company could likely have … Read full post & comments

Adobe 3D-capable Flash-11 Is Almost The Final


Adobe Systems has released the Release Candidate, Flash Player 11 yesterday, an update that makes significant changes to its widespread use, but the competitive threat of the browser plug-ins.

Flash multi-platform offers advantages for developers, allowing them to write software without worrying too much about the browser compatibility problems. However, a variety of new Web standards - some already developed with the help of Adobe - are injecting new life into a plug-in version for free on the Web. At the same time, Flash is completely forbidden IOS devices and only a short walk on Android devices.

Flash works to keep relevant, however, partly because of the address to the top. As web standards to assume the tasks of format, presentation, animation, audio and video, Adobe is primarily aimed at flash games, high video quality, and internal business applications.

Bionic Droid (Photos)


The 4.3-inch QHD screen, for example, has been absolutely fantastic for our brief moments with her. It is bright and crisp, and viewing angle is surprisingly large. The phone does not feel as smooth as the Droid X, and it's probably because the Droid Bionic is slightly thicker and more rounded at the edges. Measuring 4.96 inches long and 2.63 inches wide and 0.52 cm thick, the Droid Bionic actually feels more like Droid 2, except without the QWERTY keyboard. At 5.57 ounces, it's not exactly easy, but Heft gives a good solid feel in the hand. It also has a relatively smooth surface all around.

Bionic Droid

Description on this phone is certainly impressive.
