Hello, I'm at Wimbledon, Yeah, the App is great...

IBM (or Big Blue as they used be known), know a thing or two about technology and this App for Wimbledon available for Android is very well put together (better than the iPhone version). It has a wealth of information relating to the Tennis tournament, but the killer feature is that it can SEE THROUGH WALLS!

Well, in reality it can't, but don't tell the marketing folks that! In essence, it cleverly uses Augmented reality to source Live TV footage - simply put, point the phone at a court, and if there is a match on, the link to the video feed will show up and you can watch the match live. So, no longer do you miss out if you've only got tickets to the outside courts, but it'd no doubt be unpsortsmanly to sit on one court, watching a match from another court on your phone! Besides, how'd you eat the strawberries with one hand holding a phone?

iPad & Velcro - Made for each other

Initially on seeing this, I thought nobody would ever trust their beloved iPad to velcro, but after viewing again I think there is definitely something here and perhaps, like iPhone cases, a massive 3rd party after market for a productised version. Who'd have thought 1941 technology and 2010's would go so well together. Enjoy...

Great Dual meaning video...

I saw this at a presentation recently and thought it was very clever. It brings up some interesting points of discussion too...

If I sold 51 million...

...of ANYTHING, I'd retire to a sun drenched tropical Island!

According to the latest reports, Apple managed to have their best quarter ever with the iPhone. In total, Apple shifted 8.75 million of the shiny devices. This brings the total to just over 51m for the complete history of the iphone (all three models) - not counting iTouch's (which Apple usually throw into the equation to beef things up). Other, more established handset manufacturers slightly pooh-pooh these numbers, but this last quarter for Apple is a 130% growth, year on year - not many of the "others" can boast that!

With all this though, it is worth pointing out that the iphone is not the best selling phone ever, nor the fastest selling ever. And at the same time, Android is catching up, selling 60% of the volume of iphones, and other platforms are out there. The point is that whilst the iphone is significant, it’s not the only handset out there! And at MobaNode, we cater for all platforms!

HTC sum up Mobile meaning nicely...

Saw this Ad on "real telly" last night (well actually stopped fast forwarding on Sky+ to view). Great Ad from HTC and really sums up the essence of mobile and how ubiquitous and personal a piece of technology it is....
