Apple defends against Google with its new iPhone 4
When Apple was presenting the first iPhone in January 2007, the head of Google, Eric Schmidt, was in the audience at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, as a member of the supervisory board of Apple. Just three years later, the former ally of Apple is now its main competitor, even ahead of Microsoft or Nokia, thanks to a whole army of smartphones that want to conquer the market with Google’s operating system, Android. To halt that progress, Apple on Monday introduced the new iPhone 4, which goes on sale June 24 in the U.S., France, Germany, Japan and the UK for $ 199 (167 euros) with a two-year contract. The new phone is faster than its predecessors, the battery lasts longer, is thinner and shines with a new screen where texts are read as if they were printed

iPhone 4 features you’ll use every day or will you?
Some things on the new iPhone 4 looks pretty impressive to say the least but just how much of it will you be using on a regular basis. Apple‘s new FaceTime video calling is great but probably not something that will be used on a daily basis.

How to get your Windows Phone 7 Developers device ?
According to Brandon Watson from manyniches.com Quote : I’m here at TechEd, and there’s a lot of talk about Windows Phone 7 devices and when they are going to be made available. One cool thing that the team is doing is handing out coupons to event attendees redeemable for general availability devices when they start shipping. We’re only handing out around 50 or so of these coupons, so it’s definitely not a broad distribution. It’s meant for people who are attending sessions or wearing Windows Phone hats around the show floor. Developer devices are also on everyone’s lips
