Motorola go all V70 on us with the Aura

Motorola today announced the new Motorola Aura handset which many people would agree is a complete redo of the good old V70 which was popular back in 2002.

Nevis_Front_2, 7/22/08, 2:10 PM,  8C, 5120x2736 (304+2752), 100%, bent 6 adjuste,  1/12 s, R54.9, G39.0, B66.7
Nevis_BackOpen_1, 7/23/08, 11:03 AM,  8C, 4536x1680 (792+3304), 100%, bent 6 adjuste,  1/15 s, R57.9, G42.0, B69.7
Nevis_Rside_1, 7/23/08, 4:02 PM,  8C, 4432x1016 (640+3768), 100%, bent 6 adjuste,  1/20 s, R81.9, G66.0, B93.7
Nevis_L3QtrN_1, 8/4/08, 10:39 AM,  8C, 4726x3120 (697+2648), 100%, bent 6 adjuste,  1/30 s, R51.3, G36.3, B64.3
Motorola Aura Views

The swivel on the phone is controlled by (wait for it……..) 130 precision ball bearings and 1 Swiss made main ball bearing making it much smoother than the V70.

Motorola_V70
Motorola V70

Lets have a little look closer and see what this phone has to offer:

  • Band: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz
  • Data: GPRS/EDGE
  • Size: 96.9mm x 47.6mm x 18.6mm (3.8" x 1.9" x .7")
  • Weight: 141g (5oz)
  • Battery: 810mAh
  • Battery Life: Estimated 16.5 days standby time
                        Estimated 7 hours talk time
  • Main Display: 1.5" diameter 16m color round TFT capable of displaying 16 million colours with 300 DPI resolution
  • Camera: 2 megapixel
  • Video: Record/Playback
  • Messaging: SMS/MMS/IM
  • Email: POP3/IMAP and Web-based
  • Bluetooth: 2.0 + EDR with A2DP
  • Memory: 2GB internal
  • Availability: Planned Q4 2008
  • Other: Speakerphone, Sapphire crystal lens
  • MicroUSB
  • MicroSD

You would guess that a phone like this would be rather expensive due to the parts inside needed to make it run (all 700+ of them) and the 62-carat sapphire crystal lens but I was not expecting to see it on the MOTO Store for $1,999.99. I think I will stick to looking at it’s photo’s.

    Tixeo launches appliances for 3D video and web conferencing

    Now then, I’m not one for this whole new 3D Web Conferencing, not because I’m old or stuck in the past but I believe that meetings should be face to face. Having said that this newly launched product from Tixeo does slightly impress me. It’s like second life taken to a whole new level.

    PRESS RELEASE
    For instant diffusion: 09 / 10 / 08
    Montpellier, France

    Tixeo launches appliances for 3D video and web conferencing

    Tixeo launches its new offer WorkSpace3D Enterprise Edition Appliance, solution for video and web
    conferencing to be installed on companies’ network. This solution gives full control to companies
    willing to manage their infrastructure, respect network policies and keep autonomy regarding hosted
    service providers. WorkSpace3D Enterprise Edition Appliance is the richest video conferencing and
    collaboration solution provided by Tixeo. Sharing applications during a voice and video
    communication (over IP) with dozens of other participants, exchanging documents in real-time inside
    a 3D virtual meeting room, all of this is now made possible with WorkSpace3D EE Appliance.
    Hardware or virtual appliance for video and web conferencing
    Tixeo’s appliances are designed for a fast and efficient setup of companies’ web conferencing
    services. Two appliances offers are available:

    The first one, a hardware appliance that you just have to plug to start meeting, is designed to be
    upgradable. This appliance is sized to host up to 100 people distributed in different meetings at the
    same time. Tixeo indicates that 100 seats can fit online meeting usage of about 2 000 users. For any
    wider deployment, these appliances are clusterisable and distributable, allowing to increase with no
    limit the amount of meetings.

    The second offer is for all companies having opted, or forecasting to opt for server virtualization.
    Tixeo proposes its video and web conferencing appliances as ready-to-use virtual machines, which
    are available for VMware and Xen.

    About Tixeo

    The solution WorkSpace3D, soon available in its version 2.7, allows communicating with up to 30
    people at the same time with voice and video over Internet. This solution embeds rich collaboration
    capabilities like application sharing, document sharing, slide shows or whiteboards.
    One of the unique features of Tixeo’s solutions is to make possible online meetings in 3D virtual
    environments. The third dimension sharply enhances communication and collaboration.
    Tixeo has many SME and corporate customers as Airbus, Raytheon, Flagstar Bank, BNP Paribas,

    NY Times Explains Why Windows Mobile Is In Trouble

    1224518738.gif Om Malik of the NYTimes.com has written an article explaining why he thinks that Windows Mobile is in trouble. Treo Central’s sister site WMExperts reported back in September that Windows Mobile 7.0 would be delayed. According to the NYTimes, VentureBeat reported that WM 7 could be delayed as late as 2010. Malik says that WM 7, which was aimed at giving Microsoft a bigger presence on the mobile stage, wouldn’t have been enough, delayed or not. He says that Windows Mobile is facing its toughest environment yet with competition from RIM’s BlackBerry, Apple’s iPhone, and mainly the new Google Phone platform.
