April 17 Update! Tap into experiences with the Nokia 6212 classic Nokia today introduced the Nokia 6212 classic featuring integrated Near Field Communication (NFC). The 3G handset allows consumers to conveniently share content, access services and information as well as conduct payments and ticketing with one tap of the device. The Nokia 6212 classic is expected to start shipping in the third quarter of 2008 in select markets in Europe and Asia with an estimated retail price of EUR 200 before taxes and subsidies. "NFC-capable handsets such as the Nokia 6212 classic are set to change the way mobile phone users interact with devices and services in their surroundings," says Jeremy Belostock, the Head of Near Field Communications, Nokia. "With the Nokia 6212 classic, people can swap items like business cards or calendar notes by simply tapping their handsets together. With ever-increasing device functions and services available, ease-of-use is essential. One way to keep things simple is NFC." Near Field Communication is designed for intuitive, simple and safe interaction between electronic devices. By tapping an NFC-enabled tag, consumers can receive new content such as weblinks, audio files or contact data directly to their phone. They can activate a profile in their handset or open applications such as FM radio or web browser. Photos and videos can be easily shared by tapping another NFC-capable phone and pairing with a Bluetooth NFC-enabled device, like the new NFC variant of the Nokia BH-210 headset, happens with just one touch. The lightweight Nokia BH-210 with NFC headset allows users to access all functions easily with a single multifunction key. The widely compatible headset can be used with a number of Nokia devices as well as other manufacturers' phones. The Nokia 6212 classic can also be used as a travel ticket or for mobile payments. Travel tickets can be charged over the air, so there is no need to wait at the service counter. Users can store their credit card information on the device and access their account online directly from the handset. Using the Nokia 6212 classic for payment and ticketing purposes requires a service subscription and the installation of an appropriate secure application. Security for transactions is assured as the handset can be set to allow payment only when the user expressly authorizes the transaction via an additional passcode. The Nokia 6212 classic allows consumers to personalize and edit their own NFC tags, be it for writing calendar entries or setting the alarm clock. The sales pack of the Nokia 6212 classic comes with three sticker tags, one of which opens the NFC introduction in the phone. The slimline Nokia 6212 classic comes with an extensive set of features such as a 2 megapixel camera, bright 2-inch QVGA display, stereo FM radio and music player supporting multiple formats. An optional microSD memory card of up to 4GB provides ample space for personal content such as images and songs. [More at Mobile News at Desinformado] MSN Notifier by tension Update!

BMW MOTORRAD MOTORSPORT RETURNS TO LE MANS WITH TWO FACTORY TEAMS NEW PROTOTYPE
The BMW Motorrad Motorsport team is making final preparations to compete in the 2008 FIM Qtel Endurance World Championship. The first event in this year's six-round championship will take place April 19 and 20 at Le Mans, France. BMW Motorrad team members are looking forward to returning to the historic Bugatti circuit for the '24 Hours Moto of Le Mans' race. Last year, the factory team marked its return to world championship motorcycle racing with a fantastic result at the grueling 24 hour race in France, ending with a win in its class and a highly impressive 16th overall after 776 laps on the modified R 1200 S sports boxer. [gallery=52] Along with many other teams, BMW has been participating in two days of testing on the Bugatti racetrack and is now able to confirm its rider line-up for this prestigious race. Two BMW factory teams will pilot the new HP2 Sport at Le Mans. Experienced endurance rider Stephan Mertens -- now free from injury - will return to the team on bike number 17, along with fellow Belgian countryman Sebastian Le Grelle and German rider Rico Penzkofer. British rider Richard Cooper, Spaniard José-Luis Nion and American Brian Parriott will ride bike number 71. For Richard Cooper, his inclusion in the team is a "dream come true". The 24-year-old recently impressed international audiences with a fantastic ride for BMW Motorrad Motorsport in the Formula Xtreme Daytona 200 race - the most prestigious race in America - where he finished in fifth place, just in front of teammate Brian Parriott. Although he appeared perfectly at home on the HP2 Sport in the USA, Cooper has benefited from the recent shakedown test at Le Mans and is feeling extremely confident with the capability of the sports boxer on the French circuit. "Things couldn't have gone much better for me in the USA last month, and this has fortunately continued last week in Le Mans," he said. "I rode a different bike than the one I had at Daytona and things just 'clicked' instantly. I was the fastest BMW rider in every session and I've come away much more confident, and with what I believe is a really good set-up for the race. I can't put my finger on it, but things just feel right. Our team seems really well suited too - José -Luis Nion is the same size as me, so we have a similar bike set-up; and Brian speaks Spanish, which helps team communication with José-Luis. It's a shame Thomas Hinterreiter is injured as he is such a valuable member of the team, but I believe he will be in pit-lane with us anyway." Richard's teammate, Brian Parriott, is looking forward to participating in what is probably the most famous and also the toughest endurance race on the calendar. The Californian was part of the works team that raced at the Bol d'Or last September and was also in sensational form at Daytona earlier this year. He is really looking forward to joining the factory squad in Europe again. "I love racing in Europe - who wouldn't? For me, it is especially nice to be back with the factory BMW team. I have a great relationship with everyone involved and it is a very top-notch effort. I enjoy Le Mans as a circuit and the surrounding area is very beautiful, so I am very much looking forward to this opportunity. My early impressions of the HP2 Sport are that it is just fabulous - a real race bike. I've been racing BMW boxers for a long time now and the changes from the R 1100 S to the HP2 Sport are 3,000 percent! It seems to me that the Boxer Cup series really excited BMW and challenged the company to start building race-ready machines." This is a view that is shared by José-Luis Nion, who is looking forward to hustling the factory twin-cylinder sports bike around the 4.18-kilometer Bugatti circuit in front of an anticipated 90,000 spectators this weekend. "I love the new HP2 Sport, and I believe it has great potential. It's very fast, handles well thanks to its stiff chassis and suspension, and has excellent braking capability too. The French Le Mans circuit is seriously fast and very technical, so the bike's excellent performance at low revs is important. I would love to get on the podium here - as last year's result in Oschersleben was one of my best moments in racing - but we'll have to see what happens. The weather can be so variable at this time of year, but we've got lots of experience in the team and we are ready for anything." One rider that is certainly ready for anything on the works BMW is Sebastian Legrelle. Like his teammates, the Belgian rider has vast experience on the sports boxers from his early days in the International BMW Boxer Cup series, and he too has benefited from the pre-race test sessions at the Le Mans circuit. "The two days I spent at Le Mans with the team were invaluable for getting to grips with the BMW HP2 Sport. I was soon 'up to speed' and was comfortably doing similar lap times to those from last year, so this bodes well for the 24 Hours race. The circuit isn't one of my favorites, but when you ride the HP2 Sport, it's hard not to enjoy yourself. It feels similar to every sports boxer I have ridden before, but is so much better in every area, such as power, brakes, and chassis. For me, the start of the race can't come soon enough!"

Typinator 3.0 now dockless: almost invisible, but always ready for useHagenberg, Austria - Ergonis Software today announced the release of Typinator 3.0, the latest version of its highly acclaimed tool for auto-typing text and auto-correcting typos system-wide across all Mac OS X applications. With the new version, Typinator is no longer a regular application visible in the dock and the application switcher, but rather a dockless background-only application that is acting unobtrusively in the background. A small icon in the menu bar gives quick access to Typinator's main window. A new search feature lets you instantly view only snippets that contain a specified search string. Particularly users with many snippets will love this feature. Typinator 3.0 also adds a number of further improvements. Visit Ergonis Software's website to learn more about all changes in the release and to download and try the new version. "When we initially designed Typinator, we decided to make it a regular application, not a System Preference Pane, since this gives a wider scope for a comfortable user interface, and it seems that our customers like the resulting flexibility. However, it turned out that many users do not want to see Typinator as a regular application visible in the dock and the application switcher," said Christoph Reichenberger, founder and CEO of Ergonis Software. "I am therefore more than happy to announce that Typinator 3.0 offers the best of both worlds. Typinator is now an invisible background application that is visible only in form of a menu status item. However, when you need to access Typinator's functionality, it instantly opens up a full-fledged application window with no limitations in size, functionality, and comfort". Typinator is a powerful, yet elegantly simple solution that works across all applications to detect specific sequences of typed characters and automatically replace them with text snippets, graphics, URLs, dates and special characters. For business users, Typinator leads to a layer of operational consistency and productivity across heterogeneous applications. A standard customer service response, a signature image on an email, a clause in a contract - each of these can be inserted in any application with just a couple of keystrokes. For technical users, Typinator automates typing of code and the implementation of documentation standards. Availability and Pricing: Instead of purchasing Typinator by itself, customers can get the Macility Productivity Bundle that also contains two of the company's other productivity tools, PopChar X and KeyCue. The pricing of the Productivity Bundle represents a saving of more than 35% over the separate purchase of its components. More information about the Productivity Bundle can be found at the Ergonis Software web site. Typinator 3.0 requires Mac OS X version 10.4 or newer. It is fully compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). An Online press kit, including screenshots, is available on the Ergonis Software web site. Ergonis Software Ergonis Software develops ergonomic and intuitive software that boosts the productivity of Mac and PC users. Ergonis Software, a privately held company founded in 2002, is headquartered in Hagenberg, Austria. Ergonis and Typinator are either registered trademarks or trademarks of Ergonis Software GmbH.

The iphone to land in India next september, maybe...
Indians will no longer need to illegally buy, unlock and then use the most-desired item on gadget lovers' lists -- the Apple iPhone. Its much-awaited and delayed India launch is expected with telecom operator Vodafone in the first week of September. The Cupertino, California-based company, according to Apple retail sources, said initially the 8 GB version of the much-hyped touchscreen device -- which combines Wi-Fi capabilities with a powerful email client, TV feeds, online music store and map-based location guide -- will be launched at a price ranging between Rs 27,200 and Rs 28,000. Based on buyer response, the launch of the 16 GB version will be staggered to the middle of 2009. Apple sources in Singapore, when contacted last month, had maintained that the India launch would happen in 2008, but were tight-lipped on the exact date. Apple reportedly claims to have shipped four million iPhones this January since its US launch on June 29 last year, and its chief Steve Jobs has targeted sales of 10 million units by December 2008. The tie-up is an exclusive arrangement with AT&T. Initial sales targets for the iPhone in India or unit numbers at the time of launch are as yet unavailable, with Apple wary of grey market sales in India. "The carrier deal for India is being worked out with Vodafone," said an Apple source, adding: "Vodafone could also become the carrier for the Australian market once iPhone is launched there, though more than one carrier is likely for Australia." When contacted, a Vodafone spokesperson denied any knowledge of the deal. However, company sources confirmed the iPhone carrier deal with Apple, though the exact commercial terms were not disclosed. Mobile carriers that offer the iPhone share a percentage of their sales with Apple. Via http://inhome.rediff.com/

It seems that each generation is defined in part by the medium through which they listened to their music. From records to tapes to CDs, each new audio source has provided vast improvements in sound quality and portability. Since the advent of the mp3 audio file, music no longer has to exist in the tangible realm. With the ability to transport thousands of songs in a package the size of a matchbook, the Apple iPod has taken the world of portable music by storm. Now that these miniature jukeboxes have become the standard for portable music, www.iPodMiniMall.com has launched to provide all the accessories necessary to make the most of these amazing little devices. The first complaint owners sometimes have of these mini music machines is that they can be fragile and either break or scratch easily. The obvious remedy to this issue is to keep the device securely housed in a form-fitting case. The site carries a host of cases for every model, from the ultra compact iPod shuffle to the formidable and powerful iPod video. These cases not only provide sturdy protection from bumps and scratches, but also allow the mechanism to be clipped or strapped to the body during a jog or workout. Another slight disappointment first time buyers might have concerns the poor quality of the stock headphones. Those who upgrade will find that higher quality ear buds will not only provide superior sound quality, they will stay more comfortably secured in the ear canal. Shoppers at the site have several models of headphones to choose from, as well as a selection of external speaker systems, which are easily portable and can run off of either AA batteries or a wall adapter. Chargers, FM transmitters and other connection cables are also available. For all iPod accessories, ipodminimall.com has a wide selection for every need.
