Big first: in Barcelona that is Ford has decided to reveal the final lines of the B-Max. This new model has been presented in world premiere at Mobile World Congress, the great mass of global telecom, which opens today.

This small minivan will in fact integrate the voice command to control the wireless hands free and music on board, using the radio (with CD and DAB) or any type of USB device (key, MP3 player) or wirelessly connected to Bluetooth technology. The B-Max also introduces the emergency call, by using the mobile phone of the driver or passenger to directly call the emergency services in the local language determined by the location of the vehicle.

DigiMo Cracks The Code: Mobile Payments With No Point Of Sale Changes

DigiMo, is a mobile payments platform that actually makes sense to me. When I sat down with CEO Yossi Yarkoni and VP of Marketing Nir Shimony at the Mobile World Congress to hear about their concept, which is piloting in Israel right now, the first thing I thought was "wow, why didn't somebody think of this before". It's a pretty good idea and solves many of the problems that plague mobile, face-to-face payments.It actually works with existing infrastructure and requires no Point Of Sale hardware changes by merchants. Really. No NFC terminals to buy. No new card readers needed. This is a major sticking point for merchant adoption of new mobile payments platforms.]]>

The living show room world of telephony is the meeting place for discovering new smartphones that will be released throughout the year.

Indeed, the show Mobile World, to be held from February 27 to March 1, 2012, will be marked absent by brand: Galaxy not S III, or even a Samsung press conference, without counting the absence of iPad 3. But here, this is normal, Apple never wanted to participate in this event.

However, this MWC 2012 should be interesting. First, he will devote Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich as the operating system the most common. This version of Android 4.0 update is a unified system from Google that runs on smartphones on shelf. She brings so many new products. In addition, manufacturers will take advantage of MWC to update their old phones.
Then Google will not be alone. ON find systems in decline as BlackBerry OS, WebOS and Symbian, but also that Microsoft comes back in force.

But especially with Windows 8, that will be available for free download from February 29 in his first beta version, called Consumer Preview.

Samsung without S3, but with a S2 Plus and Galaxy Note S


The main competitor to Apple in the smartphone will favorably despite no press conference and the long awaited Galaxy S3, whose output was rejected just before summer.

With his Atom processors for mobiles Medfield, Intel wants to surprise. Existing x86 applications on Windows could run on a smartphone with little modification. Good luck to Intel in a world where ARM processors are omnipotent.

Analyst: Facebook Will Make $1.2 Billion Annually From Mobile Ads

No, Facebook is not advertising yet on mobile platforms. Yes, that hasn't stopped people from speculating on what it will mean when it does. The latest: an estimate of how much the social network stands to make from mobile advertising: $1.2 billion a year in the U.S. and its five biggest markets in Europe -- the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain.The numbers come from UK-based analyst firm Mobile Squared, which has worked out that Facebook will be making an average revenue per mobile user of around $6.50 per year -- some $2 more than Facebook currently makes per users online, using figures supplied in its S-1 earlier this month. The caveat here is that the modelling appears to be hinged on mobile display-style ads, while in truth it's not known what Facebook will do when it comes to formats; and several reports have pointed to them first opting for something altogether different -- sponsored stories.]]>

CyberLink PowerDVD 12: Complementing Your Mobile Lifestyle

Software Blu-ray / DVD players are bundled with almost all OEM PCs and a necessity for consumers who want to enjoy their commercial optical media in the most legal manner possible. At AnandTech, we regularly use the offerings from ArcSoft (Total Media Theatre), Corel (WinDVD Pro) and Cyberlink (PowerDVD) in our reviews. Each of them has its own pros and cons. While WinDVD Pro is the leanest and most responsive of the lot, it is also pretty barebones. Total Media Theatre, on the other hand, has a very good user interface and integrates services like YouTube in a seamless and enjoyable manner. PowerDVD has historically been a leader in the features department, but the user interface and bloat used to be a turn off for most users.

Today, CyberLink is introducing PowerDVD 12 along with an updated Android / iOS app. With the Blu-ray functionality not needing any updates, most of the attention has been focused on the mobile apps and streamlining the user experience with the PC player. How good are the changes? Are they enough to make us change our opinion of PowerDVD? Read on for our review.

Cowen: Google’s Mobile Ad Revenues Could Surge To $5.8 Billion In 2012

How much does Google make in advertising from mobile? Cowen analyst Jim Friedland estimates that Google is generating $7 per year from each smartphone (and tablet).

Thanks to the rapid growth in smart mobile devices from an estimated 509 million last year to nearly double that in 2012 to an estimated 914 million, Google's mobile ad revenues are expected to more than double from an estimated $2.5 billion last year to $5.8 billion in 2012 (see chart).]]>

Windows 8 Mobile Broadband Enhancements Detailed

Using mobile broadband in Windows 8 will no longer require specific drivers and third-party software, says Microsoft's Billy Anders in a Building Windows 8 blog post today. This is thanks to the new Mobile Broadband Interface Model (MBIM) standard, which hardware makers are reportedly already beginning to adopt, and a generic driver in Windows 8 that can interface with any chip supporting that standard.

We've known for awhile now that mobile broadband chips would be treated as first-class devices in Windows 8 - the same as wi-fi, ethernet, Bluetooth, and USB 3.0, among others - but as usual Microsoft's blog post discusses the subject in exhaustive detail: because of their new first-class status, broadband antennas can be turned on and off in the same way that wi-fi and Bluetooth now are, and Airplane Mode can turn all of it off in one swoop, just like on a smartphone (see above). As on phones, Windows will automatically prioritize wi-fi networks when both wi-fi and cellular are available.

If your laptop or tablet has a SIM card installed, Windows will automatically detect which carrier it's associated with and download any available mobile broadband app from the Windows store, and carrier-unlocked laptops and tablets can choose between multiple cellular carriers if the hardware supports it (see above). As Brian noted in our first Windows 8 overview, the operating system also offers estimated data usage figures when connected to cellular networks, and the OS will adjust its default behaviors to save on data (for example, deferring automatic downloading and installing of Windows updates until wi-fi is available).

For people using wired or wi-fi connections that are also metered, Microsoft also gives you the option to see data usage figures for these networks. By selecting a "reduce data usage" option, Windows will use new built-in APIs to force network-aware Metro apps to use less data when possible (another example: using a low-bandwidth movie stream rather than a high bandwidth one). Network-aware Metro apps are required to use these APIs, and users can check how much bandwidth apps are using (both on metered and non-metered networks) in the Task Manager (above).

Lastly, Microsoft has made changes to the networking stack in Windows to allow for faster wi-fi connections when devices wake from sleep - information such as your preferred network list and other "hints" provided to your wi-fi adapter mean that wi-fi connections will be available "about a second" after the device wakes up.

That about covers all of the good stuff, but as always you can check the source post for more information. The Windows 8 beta is expected in February, with a final release targeted for sometime before the end of 2012.
