Nokia C9 Windows Phone Concept Emerges
With Nokia and Microosft already making their partnership official, the entire world is waiting to see what astonishing devices would the Finnish handset vendor bring to the market with the Windows Phone operating system on board.
The company already presented some Windows Phone concepts, but nothing was made official on any handset that would hit shelves in the near future.
However, enthusiast are eagerly waiting for something to be unveiled, and some of them started to come up with their own ideas on what a Nokia device running under Windows Phone might be all about.
Nokia C9, a concept device coming from Shihuzaan (via My Nokia Blog) is one of the handsets that people are dreaming of when thinking about the Nokia – Windows Phone pair.
The handset resembles with some of the latest high-end devices on shelves, such as the iPhone, or the Samsung Galaxy S II, but it still has its own features to share with us.
Based on Windows Phone, the Nokia C9 concept device would bring the Ovi Store to the Metro UI, as well as some of the already popular services and applications that Nokia users can enjoy: Ovi Maps, Facebook, Opera Mobile 11, Twitter and more.
Of course, the device would also inherit some of the services and applications behind Windows Phone, including Xbox LIVE, Office Mobile, and the like.
This concept phone, the same as other Nokia concepts we've seen lately, runs under the next version of Windows Phone, the one that includes Nokia's own touches.

As for the hardware specs, they would impress too, starting with the large 4″ AMOLED touchscreen display, and moving to the Quad-core Cortex A9-based application processor with SGX543MP GPU.
On the back, the Nokia C9 would sport an 8-megapixel photo snapper with Carl Zeiss optics, complemented by a 2MP front-facing camera.
Have a look at the photos available with this concept device to make an idea of what Nokia might have in store for its users with its Windows Phone handsets, but do not dare to hope too much that it might become reality.

Users Who Think XP Is Good Enough Need to See Infection Rates Compared to Windows 7
In excess of 350 million licenses of Windows 7 were sold in the 18 months passed since the platform hit GA, the first 300 million of which by the end of January 2011, but despite being the second most used OS on the market, Windows Vista’s successor is doing a far superior job at protecting users compared to Windows XP.
According to operating system usage statistics from Net Applications there are largely two XP users for each customer running Windows 7.
Yet, according to the recently launched Security Intelligence Report volume 10 from Microsoft, the infection rates for Windows 7 are dwarfed by those of the decade old operating system launched in 2001.
“Infection rates for more recently released operating systems and service packs are consistently lower than earlier ones, for both client and server platforms. Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, the most recently released Windows client and server versions, respectively, have the lowest infection rates,” the software giant stated.
Previous releases of SIR provided the same conclusions, but smaller market share could have been seen as contributing to lower Windows 7 infection rates.
But fact is that the uptake explosion for Windows 7 was not correlated with a similar increase in the volume of compromised computers.
The infection rate that Microsoft associates to Windows 7 in SIRv10 has been somewhat constant and remained under 4.0 since the end of 2009.

“Infection rates for the 64-bit versions of Windows Vista and Windows 7 are lower than for the corresponding 32-bit versions of those operating systems. One reason may be that 64-bit versions of Windows still appeal to a more technically savvy audience than their 32-bit counterparts, despite increasing sales of 64-bit Windows versions among the general computing population,” the Redmond company said.
“Kernel Patch Protection (KPP), a feature of 64-bit versions of Windows that protects the kernel from unauthorized modification, may also contribute to the discrepancy by preventing certain types of malware from operating.”
Pre-Unlocked and Pre-Activated Windows 8 Leak Available for Download
The genuine Windows 8 testing releases provided to legitimate testers come accompanied with product keys designed to activate the operating system.
Even though leaked copies of Windows vNext managed to make their way into the wild, the same is not valid for the product keys offered by Microsoft to members of its select pool of testers.
While some testers reveal that Windows 7 Beta and Release Candidate (RC) product keys can also be used to activate leaked Builds of Windows 8, hackers have already put together various tools designed to let users circumvent the platform’s activation mechanism.
The hacks also come with some extra functionality as they serve not only to activate Windows 8, but even to help it bypass genuine checks while even bringing to the surface the locked features packed in the platform.
Following a series of leaks, per the “you CAN teach an old dog new tricks” model, a new Windows 8 leak available in the wild comes already pre-activated and pre-unlocked.
The new download offers the second Windows 8 Milestone 2 (M2) pre-M3 Build 6.2.7955.0 leak, the one with the original Windows 8 installer.
It appears that this particular download of Windows 8 has already been activated with the next generation Windows features also unlocked.
Essentially, it’s authors have literally done all the heavy lifting themselves, with nothing left for testers that want to jump the gun and start testing the release than just download and install it.
My advice is that users always try to steer clear from downloads that come from untrusted sources.
This is especially true in scenarios that involve leaked software that has been tampered with to some extent.
Those that followed the development of Windows 7 as well as the leaks happening ahead of public availability know that some of the illegal releases also packed malicious code.
Fact is that there’s no telling what additional surprises leaked copies of Windows 8 pack on top of the unlocked goodies hidden by Microsoft.

GALAXY Tab 10.1 on June 8, Google I/O Attendees Receive it Now
.
On Tuesday, Google kicked off the 4th edition of its annual Google I/O developer conference, with a special treat up its sleeve for those who attended, namely free GALAXY Tab 10.1 devices.
A number of not less than 5,500 tablet PCs were prepared for developers attending the Google I/O (Innovation in the Open) conference at the Moscone Center, San Francisco, USA, the official announcement
This would be a special, limited edition of the device, a GALAXY Tab 10.1 model engraved with the Android emblem, running under the latest flavor of the Android platform, Honeycomb.
“Samsung has proven its leadership in the Android tablet market with its range of GALAXY Tab devices featuring cutting-edge technology and powerful performance,” Wonpyo Hong, Executive Vice President of Product Strategy at Samsung Electronics, commented.
"We look to the developer community to create compelling and desirable applications that will demonstrate the advanced capabilities of the GALAXY Tab 10.1 and we hope that the gift of these devices will help that.”
For those out of the loop, we should note that the tablet PC was unveiled in February during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, with a large 10.1-inch display, being the second tablet PC Samsung introduced to the world.
However, the device soon became GALAXY Tab 10.1v, and got a second version in late March, the actual GALAXY Tab 10.1, with a slimmer body than before.
While GALAXY Tab 10.1v already arrived on shelves via Vodafone, the carrier that Samsung partnered with for the launch, the thinner version of the tablet PC is expected to hit the market only starting with June 8th, Samsung announced.
“The GALAXY Tab 10.1 is the latest product in Samsung’s expanding portfolio of tablet devices,” Samsung explains.
“Featuring a 10.1 inch screen, Dual Core processor and measuring just 8.6 mm, the GALAXY Tab 10.1 combines outstanding multimedia capabilities with the portability and performance you would expect of a Samsung tablet.”
The Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 arrives on shelves in two flavors, 16GB and 32GB, with price tags of $499 and $599, respectively.
Nokia X10 Symbian Concept Phone Packs Quad-Core CPU
Hot on the heels of the emergence of few pieces of info regarding the next Symbian release, supposedly called Belle, we can also have a look at the first Nokia concept phone that would be based on it.
Called Nokia X10, the device should pack a 2 GHz Quad-Core Processor, complemented by 2 GB RAM and a powerful GPU, making it one of the most appealing concept phone we've had the chance to see in a while.
The Nokia X10 concept comes from Nando Sang Putra, via My Nokia Blog, and might easily turn into a mobile phone capable of bringing down popular handsets like the Windows Phone-based HD7, or the Android-powered Galaxy S II, or the HTC Sensation.
If only Nokia came up with a similar idea a few years ago! Symbian would have certainly managed to remain at the top of the mobile market, especially if backed by powerful, appealing handsets at lower price tags.
However, the Nokia X10 would be a high-end phone, which means that its price would be leveraged as well. And with a 4.5-inch touchscreen – Dragontrail Glass Display – capable of delivering a 1280 x 720 pixels resolution, the handset would certainly worth every penny.
But there's more to it. The concept phone would come with support for 4G LTE networks, as well as with Quad-band connectivity, TV-out (1080p video) via HDMI with Dolby Digital Plus sound, or USB port.
On the back, the handset should sport a 15 MP photo snapper, with Carl Zeiss optics, auto focus, Dual Xenon flash and full HD 1080p@30fps video recording capabilities. It would be complemented by a front-facing 5 MP camera with EDoF, face detection and flash to enable video calling at night as well.

The Nokia X10 would also sport Proximity sensor, Ambient light sensor, Thermo sensor, Magnetometer sensor, and 3-axis Gyro sensor, as well as a Li-Ion 2000 mAh battery to provide users with extended usage time.
For enthusiasts, this would be the Nokia phone they have always dreamed of. Undoubtedly, with the latest advancements in the mobile industry, it would not be too long before handsets that would sport similar specs arrive on shelves, though it remains to be seen whether Nokia would actually release such a Symbian phone.
