Motorola BACKFLIP Review-GSMArena

Android elders must be staring at this one in disbelief. Looking down at it for all we know, measuring it up. What about the BACKFLIP? We guess it’s exactly the kind of gadget to stare back, humble but defiant.

Android was a life-saving blood transfusion for Motorola. Not only did the MILESTONE put them back on the map – it gave them a license to experiment. They didn’t think twice to take it. So here we are, watching the BACKFLIP do the robot dance. This one is no ordinary droid, though at first it might look like a faithful follower of the G1. QWERTY keyboards fell out of Android favor soon after the G1 but we’re witnessing a strong comeback, much credit for which goes to Motorola.

Number 1

Well this is my first post on a blog, at any time. I am hoping to continue this blog to chronicle my movements through the ever changing Telecoms sector in Africa. Having move into the Telecoms sector as a complete newbie the learning curve has been steep and it seems like in this industry with the pace of technology advancements learning is continuous.

So I trust that this blog will remain continuously interesting. The first 2 things I will talk about in this blog are 2 trips the first to Barcelona for Mobile World Congress (MWC) and the second a trip to Nairobi for the African CDMA Summit sponsored by Qualcomm.

First Mobile World Congress, a great event, a truely great turnout and some incredible information and products coming out of the event. In my opinion the major topics that will be changing and moving the Mobile World moving forward will be the App market, mobile operating systems and the embedded devices market.

There are a few interesting dynamics in the App market, who will take the major share of the pie? Apple, Android, Symbian, Blackberry and now the new Windows Mobile……. But this is the same battle ground for Mobile Operating systems, so watch this space. I think the battle for dominance moving forward is going to be an interesting one. Will Symbian keep there current position of dominance or will one of the new entrants be able to continually take market share away from the dominant players.

Embedded Devices are also going to an interesting market moving forward from the medical field to motor vehicles all connected and able to communicate with external sources. The possibilities are endless in this field.

The I also attended a few press conferences that were fascinating firstly,Skype, amazing a Telegeography research for 2009 states that Skype carried 12% (or there abouts from memory I don’t have the figures with me) os all international traffic. This is quite quite an incredible figure. And must put them up there with the largest carriers internationally.

Then another event I attended was with Motorola Network Solutions roundtable focussing on WIMAX, another incredibly interesting discussion around what is happening in the WIMAX space, from various market and various routes that are being taken worldwide. Like hearing Sean Bolger from Imagine Communications in Ireland and how they are rolling out a comprehensive WIMAX network and this is having a positive effect on data ARPU’s.

I could keep writing as so much happened at Mobile World Congress that I am sure a book could be written from the new information released. But to move on it was quite an interesting shift going from MWC organised by the GSMA to the African CDMA Summit.

The differences in the 2 technologies seem to be quite large however I do feel that both have there place in the market and personally (yes I new to the industry) feel that GSM and CDMA networks should coexist with each of the networks playing to there strengths. I will leave what these strengths are to those amongst us who are more technical.

As an example of this the Telkom Kenya model that was presented in Nairobi was fascinating, they are running Fixed Voice (fixed line), fixed data (adsl) and mobile voice and data both on CDMA and GSM networks a true showcase for using what is available to ensure that all segments and needs are covered in a given market. Why is this not more common was my questions? I did not receive any answer to this, the one resounding voice in the CDMA space in Africa was that GSM came first to Africa and CDMA has been playing catch up from Day 1.

This dynamic is very interesting and I think is another one that should be watched moving forward. Now I think the most controverisial thing I heard during my travels was the idea that LTE could bring about a convergance of sorts so that GSM and CDMA technologies themselves converge to a point where they would become indistinguishable from one another. A point to that I am again I hope the more technically savy than I will comment on. Is this a possibility to be honest I for sure do not know.

Well I think for my first entry it has been an interesting one and I will be endeavouring to bring you more as time goes by and I hope that you will take the time to comment on my thoughts so that we can start an interesting discussion around some of the points I have made.

The Mobile Industry Delimna - Is the critical DNA lost, or being ignored?

Imagine if Boeing strapped on a couple of Piper Cub engines on its new 787 Dreamliner. It may look sweet, have a lot of options and features, get everyone talking about it, but nobody’s going to go anywhere fast. One of the DNA’s of good airplane building is making sure you have a good engines. Few would disagree -;)

The mobile industry too, has its own DNA. Keeping it intact lately seems elusive.

On the heels of Consumer Reports study that iPhones hog much more data than other smart phones, RIM’s co-CEO Mike Lazaridis, sounded an alarm; Blackberry Maker RIM Warns of Bandwidth Crisis. Earlier this month, Cisco Systems released its Visual Networking Index figures that predict mobile data traffic will leap an astounding 39x, a 108% CAGR between 2009-2014.  The average individual mobile subscriber data consumption will grow from 1.3 gigabytes/month to ~7 gigabytes/month. If you are interested in the other details of the Cisco report, GigOM did a nice job summarizing the report here: Cisco: The Mobilpocalypse Is Coming!!!!!

This is not a RIM vs Apple vs anyone else problem. It is an industry core DNA problem.

To be sure, RIM with 75+ million smart devices shipped to date, quite likely knows more about mobile data traffic optimization than any similar or peripheral provider in its industry. RIM’s own DNA is largely taken for granted by both business users and consumers alike. By definition, DNA (mobile or otherwise) should be transparent and assumed.

Remember this entire wireless data industry was created because the RIM Blackberry solutions felt fast and reliable on 1995 vintage 4.8-9.6 Kb/s low-speed, low capacity networks (mobitex, cdpd etc). Something nobody at the time could accomplish. Handset incumbents Nokia and Sony/Ericsson probably run a close second to RIM’s knowledge of end to end traffic optimization, Motorola likely a distant third. Relevant newcomers Google, Apple and Microsoft are hell-bent on the big bang broadband theory, thus efficient use of mobile network bandwidth seems assumed to be the “dumb pipes” problem, not theirs.

Ten+ years ago, in the middle of a blizzard in Waterloo, Jim Basille and Mike Lazaridis, were quite put out with me at one point during a private meeting. Let it be noted that it wasn’t the first time I have evoke that emotion, nor the last . Jim handed me a very early prototype of a RIM 9000 and said “what do you think?”. To their chagrin, I immediately tapped on the screen (like with that era Palm V’s) and said, hey, “no digitizer, no application OS, what gives?”. I doubt either Mike or Jim of remember that day, but over the course of that afternoon, we hammered out what I often refer to as the Mobile DNA. (The truth be told, they probably had already thought about this stuff and were humoring me!)

The key Mobile DNA from a subscriber view includes;

1. Simple ease of us.
2. Fast reaction to an expected outcome (eg get mail, open a website, use an app, make a call).
3. Long battery life.
4. Reliability
5. Utility

Without these elements of this DNA, how many apps (free or not) are in a storefront or  how “open” a system is, or is not simply doesn’t matter. Success cannot occur without a solution being great at one of the DNA elements and at least “ok” at the others. Bad DNA speaks for itself. One can already gauge the truth and importance of my thesis. Microsoft’s 55% collapse in mobile market share is because its solution has bad DNA – uncertain reliability, poor battery life, and terrible ease use. Apple is successful because it has good DNA – great ease of use, great utility and is “ok” at reliability, battery life and device speed (reactive). Nokia excels on reliability, battery life and utilities and exhibits “ok” DNA elsewhere. Google is not yet tested but is showing signs of tainted DNA in terms of battery life, reliability and reaction time. Google’s Eric Schmidt may want “a piece of Google in every mobile data transaction” but he has a lot of work to do and I think he knows it.

As mobile cloud services become dominate (and they will) network transaction/payload protocols optimizations between devices and the cloud will become more critical.
There are four reasons (at least) why this is true;

• users insatiable appetite for speed (bandwidth),
• users low tolerance for delay (latency),
• users requirements for longer battery life and
• more sophisticated apps that use isochronous data like voice and video.

In fact the Cisco report theorizes that 66% of mobile traffic by 2014 will be video.

Wireless network operators are in a period of 3G+ and 4G coverage build outs. While with each evolution of network technology comes with new capacity and economics, it seems seems we find ourselves facing a gap between available “dumb pipe” investments  in capacity and the accelerating use smartphone applications that consumer exponential levels of network capacity. In the early 90’s RIM worked with Ericsson to revamp its mobitex network, including a redesign on many of its network protocols and routing schemes. The point here, is this DNA issue is not an issue in isolation – no one element of the mobile ecosystem owns the problem. Mobile DNA is a socially relevant issue for all parties.

Network operators, handset manufacturers, network equipment suppliers purveyors of OS’s have a market mandate to refocus on core mobile DNA. Else risk stalled growth, collapsing economics, increased subscriber frustration that could lead to further regulatory impositions.

When your smart phone isn't smart (2)

My old Motorola

My own statement that one also should enjoy disconnection is being tested this week. Sunday afternoon I discovered that my Nokia E71 again didn’t want to receive emails. But it wasn’t deconfigured like last time. I thought the solution would be quick and painless, but this time I had no luck.

It was impossible to re-install my email account after Nokia’s employee had deleted it and after some asking and insisting that they solve my problem at my telephony provider Comcel’s, a technician quickly concluded that the software on the phone was outdated. How come? I bought it mid December 2009.

It was Monday and they told me my phone had to stay in the repair shop until Friday. My heart sank: all week long without my smart phone. That is too much to bear.

At home I had an old Motorola but I feared it wouldn’t be able to read my new and stronger in capacity simcard. The Comcel boys and girls assured it would, but they have told me so much. One gets a little forewarned.

Fortunately they appeared to be right and my Motorola is functioning allright. I even managed to dismiss the dictionary in the messages: I mean you write a letter and the thing already starts to guess the word. I hate it. I just want a to be a, twice a to be b and three times a to be c, etc.

But oh, how I miss my Nokia E71 and how I have to convince myself very much that you can live without email and internet on your phone and that disconnection is also joyful.

Android 2.1 for the Droid? This week

One of the main reasons that I purchased the Motorola Droid was that it is a “Google Experience Device” meaning that

the DROID is a Google Experience device, which should theoretically mean that it’s more likely to receive fast and frequent software updates than its skinned cousins like the CLIQ. The Google Experience is sort of the “gold standard” Android showcase for the company, so to speak, and it’s in Google’s best interest to keep it rock solid at all times — and since there’s no third-party skin to re-validate after every Android version is released, the update process should go a heck of a lot smoother. – from Engadget’s DROID review here.

OK. That makes some sense. I was happy when I first received my Android 2.0.1 update about a month and a half ago. That was awesome. Something that I have been biting my tongue about was the Android 2.1 update that is currently running on the Nexus One.

I remember a couple of weeks ago there were some rumors flying around that Verizon was starting to push out this 2.1 update and it even made it’s way to Engadget. After a couple of days of waiting and further investigation this was found to be false and it looks like us Droid users are still waiting in the wings.

Here is the problem that I am starting to see. Android devices are being released at a break-neck pace. Even Motorola is expected to put out a couple of new Androids the first half of the year. I suspect with these new phones we will see the updated OS and because of that Motorola may find themselves not as concerned with updating their flagship device. If this is the case, Motorola is going to piss off a lot of very tech centric and vocal customers (this one included).

With all that said…

Engadget points out that Moto’s official Facebook page lets us know that they are sorry for not giving information sooner and that Android 2.1 will start rolling out this week. I have been checking my DROID obsessively and no-go on 2.1 for this guy… yet.

I will post something after I get 2.1 detailing what has changed.

Two Apps I recently downloaded are SMUpdater, and Hoccer.

SMUpdater is a helpful little app built by the Sholes.info team to easily update, download, and flash their custom built ROMs directly from their servers, choose what mods you want installed or removed, overclock, root and unroot the Droid, and been updaing on a regular basis. You can either get it for a $5 donation in the Market (which I reccomend if you can afford it to help them out with their servers and expenses), or free on www.shole.info

The other app, Hoccer is free in the market, and also available for the iPhone and on their site www.hoccer.com (which was also mentioned in the description in the Android Market.)  Basically, it uses your GPS and a closeby friend’s GPS to “throw” and catch” media and data files. The sender flick the device forward to “throw” the file, and the recipient flicks the device toward them to “catch” it. According to comments, a few users mentioned you can also go from iPhone to Android.

Motorola Devour

This Android-based model will supposedly have a shape somewhat similar to the popular Motorola Droid, but without many of the high-end features.

Like its big brother, it will be a slider, with a landscape-oriented QWERTY keyboard. It will apparently have a smaller, lower-resolution screen than the Droid, though.

On this device’s front, next to the touchscreen, will be three touch-sensitive buttons and an optical trackpad, rather than a trackball or D-pad.

The Droid Devour will allegedly debut with Android OS 2.1, the latest version of Google’s mobile operating system, and have the standard suite of software for connecting to Google services.

In addition, it will have support for Verizon’s EV-DO mobile broadband network, plus it will include Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

The Devour is also allegedly going to have a 3 megapixel camera, 3.5 mm headset jack, a GPS receiver, a microSD memory card slot, and a 1420 mAh battery.

Palm Pre Plus is for women? Really?

If you weren’t sure which cell phone best suits your gender, Verizon knows. Check out these latest ads for the new Palm Pre Plus. I know that they are cheesy and campy on purpose, but come on. It’s a cell phone. Why? We shouldn’t even need to be discussing this! The Palm Pre ads are pretty direct, but the Droid are just as over the top but also violent!

And here are the ads for the Droid by Motorola. Subtle. Very subtle.

iPad, MSI Android Tablet, Archos Tablets

Whenever I hear of a Tablet PC, I think of a notebook with a keyboard with a touchscreen that flips open backwards to be used like a stand. From what I have been seeing, tablets are going more to the multimedia side, and away from the PC side. Three tablets that caught my attention are the iPad, The Archos 5 and 7, and MSI Android Tablet.

Let me start with the iPad. By looking at it, all it seems to be is a 10″ iPod. Same uncustomizable OS, same look, just bigger, and so is the price. The price range for the WiFi model is $500+ depending on flash drive size, and $800+ for 3G+wifi, and an extra $30 a month for unlimited 3g access, and $15 a month for limited. It is running a 1ghz processor, and the flash sizes are a predictable 16, 32, and 64gb.What I would have liked to see from Apple with the tablet is something similar to the Axitron Modbook. The second tablet I would like to talk about, even though limited information is available as of now, is the MSI Android Tablet. Aimed to compete against the iPad, it also is 10″ in size and priced at $500. From what I read, it will be released with multiple configuration depending open the users needs. Lastly, the tablet that has caught my eyes, is the Archos line which are Android and PC based based. The Archos 5 and Archos 7 are both android based, running 600MHz. The Archos 5 is 5″ in size, having the disk drive space ranging from 60GB-250GB, and now on sale for starting price of $299.99. The Archos 7 is what I would consider the big brother. It is 7″ in size, and disk sizes of either 160GB and 320GB. Besides running Android, these two devices have the ability to stream and download standard and HD movies, record TV shows on the device itself with its built-in DVR, or with a couple of wires, from the device to the TV. A price hasn’t been set yet for the Archos 7. The Archos 9 is more in a comparison to a netbook then a multimedia/internet tablet. It is 9″, running a 1.1GHz processor, a 60GB HDD hard drive, and Windows 7 Starter Edition. It is priced at $549.99.

Motorola Zeppelin

Now Motorola has come up with its yet another innovation, Motorola Zeppelin. It’s a new Motorola phone with powerful features like Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS, etc. The Company is about to release this new handset in the market.

Evidently, Motorola Zeppelin is expected to début in the upcoming Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona next month. This smartphone can activate on Android 2.0 or 2.1. Also, it may embrace the touch-sensitive buttons below the display.

Motorola Zeppelin features a 5 megapixel cam, 3.2-inch HVGA display, GPS and Motoblur UI. The smartphone is properly shaped in a slender, smooth and sleek body structure. Motorola Zeppelin is undoubtedly fashionable and chic. Well, the price and the launch date of the Motorola Zeppelin are still uncertain.

Smart beyond the desktop

Hands up if you carry more than a phone with you when you are out and about!

Apart from keys and wallet, my pockets hold a BlackBerry 8900 and an iPod Touch. Most executives I met have with them a phone and a BlackBerry (in this case used primarily for emails).

My wife has, would you believe it, three cell phones (no BlackBerry) everywhere she goes. These are all stuffed in her bag which if used properly can knock the wind out of you very easily (I think her bag weighs about 3 kg).

Every piece of portable electronic device requires regular battery charge depending on usage. At home we’ve got 2 sets of charges for my wife’s Nokia phones (all 3 of them) and I’ve got one charger for the 4 iPods I’ve collected. My daughter has a charger for her HP TX2 tablet PC, her mobile phone and her iPod nano. My son has a charger for his Nintendo DS Lite as well as his mobile phone. Between us, we’ve amass quite a collection of chargers. At times the collection of chargers can be very annoying as these tend to tangle every time.

I’ve always wished to have one appliance that would charge all of our devices regardless of make and model. The problem is that most devices don’t have the same power requirements and the makers also have different ideas when it comes to designing how to charge these devices.

A number of vendors like Targus, ESI and Griffin have come up with portable charges primarily designed for laptops and devices with USB connectors. But in most cases you can only charge 1 or 2 devices at a time. To do this, they also have to provide as many ‘tips’ as possible to match the various devices out in the market, including those for the Apple, Creative Technologies, Blackberry, LG, Motorola, Nokia, Samsung, and Sony Ericsson. For mobile phones the end to these different ports may be in sight.

The European Commission has managed to get agreement from 10 companies, including Apple, LG, Motorola, Nokia and Sony Ericsson, to agree to manufacture future phones based around an inter-chargeable design. But what about your MP3s, video players, portable video game consoles, laptops, and now ereaders?

 A few vendors have been working on a universal charger for as many devices as possible. One such vendor is Powermat with its Powermat Home & Office Mat and Powermat Portable Mat. Both models include a Powercube with includes 8 ‘tips’ for the most common mobile devices, including DS LIte, DS, Sony PSP, Samsung, LG and Apple. It also includes tip for a micro USB and mini USB. Optional accessories include receivers (adapter may be less confusing) for BlackBerry, iPhone and iPod (dock).

The Powermat uses induction magnetic to charge the target device. Because portable devices have different power requirements, each receiver is fitted with an RFID to tell the mat what device is on it and deliver the appropriate power requirement. Powermat claims this intelligence ensures charging is efficient, clean and safe.

How it works

For the BlackBerry device, you need to remove the backplate and replace it with the receiver. For iPhone 3G/3GS you insert the phone into a custom jacket much like you would any of the case accessories for the iPhone. There is a specific spot in the mat where you place the device you want to charge. A magnet locks the receiver in place. A blip sound and led light indicates successful lock and charging begins.

Caveats

Whether its the Home & Office or Portable versions, you can only charge three devices at any one time. The receivers are not cheap! A BlackBerry battery door costs US$29.99, Apple cases and docks cost US$39.99 each, a Nintendo DS back panel costs US$29.99.

My thoughts

Overall the Powermat does help tidy up my messy table removing all those unwanted cables out of the way (forever). While the Home & Office version is designed specifically for use at a near permanent location (desk), the portable version can be brought along to almost any location to charge the devices.

One of the marketing messages that is being conveyed here is that the powermat delivers clean, energy efficient power to the intended devices. To be honest I have no way of measuring how efficient the charger is. I can only assume that the mat consumes very little power when it is not charging anything. Of course, it might be consuming a very small amount since you still have its own charger plugged in to the outlet.

Innovation beyond the office desk

Powermat claims the technology is not restricted to digital or computer related devices. Because it uses magnetic induction technology the risk of electrocution (or getting zapped) no longer exists. At the CES 2009, Powermat showed off a number of areas like the Kitchen where Powermat technology is embedded on a kitchen tabletop. A demo of an ordinary baking mixer is plugged into to what looks like an adapter equipped with Powermat receiver. The mixer continued to work despite water being poured over the area where the receiver was sitting.

Bugless Beast [800MHz & Wifi] V0.7.1 by Pete and [Themed ROM] Smoked Glass TURBO w/ White Clock

I have tried out these two ROMS, and I have to say I am more impressed with the Smoked Glass. I tried the Bugless Beast, and was hit with multiple force closes, one after another with the 2.1 launcher. After that, I decided to wipe the phone and completely reloaded it. The same issues were present. Since it is still a low build, I will give Pete some time to work on it more before I test it again.

Now onto one that instantly became one of my favorites. Smoked Glass themed ROM, built by ADAMz. The only issue I found was the battery taking a beating when being overclocked. The only reason I am mentioning that is because it is added into the ROM, even though the phone itself is overclocked and in need of more battery power. His post will also include links to either downgrade it to 600MHz, or up to upgrading it to 900MHz-1GHz, but the links aren’t up yet. Some things that separate this from the other 2 ROMs is the 2.1 launcher is themed, as in the title, and includes a keyboard where you don’t have to “type”, and also includes the Nexus One boot animation. The clock has been reverted back to the 2.0.1 version, while it doesn’t have the weather and other features 2.1 has, you can easily access your clock and alarm by tapping the clock on Weather Widgets, Beautiful Widgets, or whatever one you use. Check the link for photos of the theme, Like the others, it also has the 2.1 music player, image gallery, Multi-Touch Milestone browser. He also has slightly modded the video recorder, which I haven’t tested. Out of this, Sholes.info, and Bugless Beast, I would have to recommend this ROM. Check out the links, check them all out, and see what the both have to offer.

Two Million Droids

During the reported quarter, Motorola shipped 12 million mobile phones, commanding a global market share of just 3.7%. However, the newly launched two Android 3G smartphones CLIQ and DROID witnessed impressive results. Launched in the fourth quarter of 2009, these two devices generated sales of 2 million units together in the quarter.

Not sure what’s impressive about getting 2 million units sold after $100 million in promotion by Verizon.

Motorola Backflip

• Specs: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) • GPRS, WAP, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA • 5-megapixel • microSD •See more specifications
• RRP: TBA

MOTO Backflip

Motorola introduced its latest Google Android smartphone to the world, the Motorola Backflip. Scheduled for a global release at the beginning of Q1 2010, Motorola CEO Sanjay Jha said the device would be available in Europe, Asia, Latin America and North America, but would not disclose any carriers.

The Motorola Backflip is a quad-band GSM phone with support for the 850/1900/2100MHz 3G bands, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS. The smartphone’s design is really what sets it apart, however. At first glance, the Backflip looks like a sleeker, smaller version of the Motorola Cliq, but instead of a slider design, the phone opens up like a book. In addition, in its closed state, the full QWERTY keyboard is located on the back. For those concerned about durability, Motorola said the keyboard is strong enough to take a beating and keep on clicking, but of course, that remains to be seen.

Another unique feature of the Backflip is the trackpad, which Moto calls Backtrack, located on the back of the display (when the phone is open). It works just like a traditional trackpad, allowing you to navigate through menus, flip through photos, scroll through the home screen panes, and more. It’s certainly an interesting twist, and you can also interact with the smartphone through the 3.1-inch HVGA touchscreen, but Backtrack should help keep that display fingerprint free.

Like the Motorola Cliq, the Backflip uses Motoblur software and though it will launch with Android 1.5, the smartphone will be upgradeable to Android 2.1. Other highlights of the smartphone include a 5-megapixel camera, a 3.5mm headphone jack, 2GB internal memory (expandable up to 32GB) and a full HTML browser.

Head-to-Head: iPhone vs. Google Phone Nexus One

Will the company that revolutionized Internet search send the Apple iPhone looking for answers?

At a press gathering on Tuesday, Google unveiled the Nexus One, a Google-branded smartphone that will run on the search giant’s Android operating system. Some analysts say Google’s new device, which is being built by HTC of Taiwan based on Google’s specifications, will deal a stiff blow to Apple’s hegemony in the smartphone arena.

Where could Google succeed where other competitors have failed? The Nexus One boasts speed improvements and enhanced camera capabilities, and the device will be sold unlocked. So rather than being forced to sign a contract with AT&T, a service provider that has been criticized for network mishaps and poor customer service ratings in the last year, buyers may purchase service plans separately from the device.

The Nexus One is also nice to look at, says Michael Gartenberg, the vice president of strategy and analysis for Interpret, a market researcher in Los Angeles. “Google’s Nexus One is a beautifully designed device,” he says. “It looks like Google looked at the iPhone and said we can do better.”

Head-to-Head: Google Nexus One VS. Apple iPhone….

Is Google competing with their own vendors?

Wow, Mark Sigal raises a very valid point that with the release of Nexus One, Google is now directly competing with the mobile phone hardware vendors and service providers they said they would not — and should not — compete with.

I’ll go further and say that Google selling the Nexus One is like Microsoft picking out just one hardware vendor, and then partnering with that vendor to sell hardware systems directly from microsoft.com. If you were the other hardware vendors, wouldn’t that piss you off?

Lancement officiel du Nexus One (Source:AFP)

WASHINGTON (AFP)

Aficionados et spécialistes des nouvelles technologies retiennent leur souffle à l’approche d’une conférence de presse organisée mardi par Google au cours de laquelle le géant américain d’internet pourrait dévoiler un téléphone multifonctions très attendu.
Déjà présent sur le marché florissant des téléphones intelligents grâce à son système d’exploitation Android, lancé en octobre 2008, le leader de la recherche et de la publicité sur le web veut attaquer de front l’iPhone d’Apple et les Blackberry de RIM avec son “Nexus One”.
L’appareil devrait être plus mince que l’”iPhone”, ne posséder comme lui aucun clavier mais un écran tactile, être équipé de deux micros – dont un sur le dos afin de corriger les nuisances créées par le bruit ambiant – et avoir une caméra “étrangement” grosse pour un téléphone, selon crunchbase.com.
Il devrait également permettre de dicter des courriels, croit savoir ce site spécialisé, qui publie une photo du gadget fabriqué par le taïwanais HTC.
Alors que le téléphone de la marque à la pomme est distribué aux Etats-Unis exclusivement par l’opérateur AT&T, le “Google phone” sera compatible avec n’importe quel réseau, moyennant 580 dollars, affirme le blog Gizmodo.com.
Il ne coûtera toutefois que 180 dollars en souscrivant à un abonnement de deux ans avec T-Mobile, filiale américaine de l’allemand Deutsche Telekom.
La liste complète des opérateurs nationaux qui proposeront le “Nexus One” n’est pas encore connue, mais il sera peut-être possible d’en savoir plus mardi, jour où Google organise “une conférence de presse sur Android” à son siège de Mountain View, près de San Francisco (ouest).
“Le lancement il y a à peine plus d’un an du premier appareil fonctionnant avec Android a montré avec quelle puissance un système d’exploitation ouvert peut encourager l’innovation dans la téléphonie”, indique laconiquement l’invitation envoyée aux journalistes.
“Et ce n’est que le début”, conclut Google, qui n’a donné aucun détail sur la rencontre qui a lieu deux jours avant l’ouverture à Las Vegas du Consumer Electronic Show, grande messe annuelle de l’électronique.
Malgré l’absence de Google à ce salon, “tous les regards se braqueront” sur son téléphone portable, prévoit l’analyste Rob Enderle. “Il semble que Google cherche à imiter Apple”, dont le lancement en 2007 du premier téléphone, “iPhone”, a rencontré un succès phénoménal, avance-t-il.
Pour plusieurs experts, le groupe américain va essayer de transposer sur les téléphones portables la réussite qu’il a connue dans le domaine de la publicité sur internet. Pour preuve, soulignent-ils, Google a déboursé en novembre 750 millions de dollars pour racheter l’entreprise AdMob, spécialisée dans le placement publicitaire sur les cellulaires.
Mais un tel positionnement laisse certains observateurs sceptiques.
“Ca n’a vraiment aucun sens”, tranche Van Baker, analyste du cabinet Gartner. Pour le chercheur Jonathan Yarmis, un tel choix poussera le groupe à faire l’équilibriste pour, d’un côté, faire la promotion de ses propres appareils et, de l’autre, aider d’autres sociétés à mettre au point leur propre téléphone basé sur Android.
Si le taux de pénétration du marché américain par Android reste modeste, il a doublé pour atteindre 3,5% en octobre, selon le cabinet spécialisé comScore. Et il pourrait atteindre 14% dans le monde en 2012, selon l’estimation de Gartner.
