EU contest regulators alleged Saturday they will drop an antirust probe into Apple after the US computer giant eased precincts on programming tools and cross-border warranties for the iPhone.

The European Commission said it would close its analysis after Apple recently changed its policies making it easier for clients of the massively popular iPhone to get repairs under warranty in an EU country other than where it was bought.

The European Union’s antitrust watchdog assumed Apple had also lifted restrictions limiting independent developers’ flexibility to develop applications for the iPhone, which regulators had feared would hurt competition.

“Apple’s response to our preliminary investigations shows that the Commission can use the competition rules to achieve swift results on the market with clear benefits for consumers,” alleged EU Competition Commissioner Joaquin Almunia in a statement.

Knife thugs will be aimed in a ground-breaking police operation tonight warning them they face jail if trapped carrying a weapon.

Bluetooth mobile device technology will be used by Strathclyde Police for the first time as an enforcement tool to curb knife crime.

Revelers celebrating the start of the holiday weekend will be targeted by police who will be in Glasgow city centre and the South Side.

Even though police issued safety messages using Bluetooth last Christmas, it’s the first time it has been used to lug a hard-hitting message. The Bluetooth messages will be sent to mobile handsets from late this afternoon and all through the night in targeted areas for instance clusters of pubs, clubs and youth discos.

It will read: “If you are caught carrying a knife, you WILL be arrested.”

Superintendent Derek Robertson, of Community Safety, assumed: “The Bluetooth message is clear – violence or carrying a knife will not be tolerated.”

Police want to reach individuals who may intend carrying a knife or violent behaviour and also, over and above reassuring the public that officers are in the local area ensuring their safety.

The Bluetooth sender will be carried in a marked car and will repeatedly send out the message. Everyone within approximately 100m of the device will receive a text message from Strathclyde Police, if they acknowledge the message they will see it reads: If you are caught carrying a knife, you WILL be arrested. Strathclyde Police is in your area NOW, making communities safer.

Superintendent Robertson added: “The aim of using this technology is to ensure that everyone who will be in the targeted areas tonight are not only safe but also feel safe.”

Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro users who have been waiting for Android 2.1 to be rolled out to their smartphones will be disenchanted to know that the business has delayed the update.

The X10 was scheduled to get the revise in Q3 2010, but Sony Ericsson has now recommended on its forums that it will be the end of October before Éclair arrives on the mobile phones.

“The revised plan is to start the roll-out from end of October and onwards,” explained Sony Ericsson’s Rikard Skogberg.

Not happy

“We are of course not happy about the change of launch timing but we have had to spend some additional time on the software to really make sure we roll-out with the right quality and user experience,” he sustained.

“When it comes to what to expect from the updated software all three X10 models will be updated to Android 2.1 and the Xperia X10 will also get HD video recording with continuous autofocus among many other things.”

This is definitely far from ideal for X10 owners, who will no doubt be looking at the phones that are already getting 2.2 updates and inquiring why they are so far behind.

BlackBerry Storm 3 is announced to be coming soon and possibly sooner than you think.  A leaked image of the BlackBerry Storm 3 showed a 3.7 inch display on the smartphone.  The mobile device alleged, according to sources, would have Wi-Fi technology and 8 GB of internal memory for each unit.  Although the BlackBerry Storm 1 and 2 did not garner a lot of admirers as expected, Storm 3 could rectify that fact and turn the product around.

The design of the Storm 3 as exposed by the leaked picture, is BlackBerry’s answer to one of its competitions, the iphone.  The bulky display and its touch screen capabilities could change owners’ beliefs and persuade them of the many good features of the product compared to its past models and its other counterparts.

The coming months could mean more seepage of information and rumors on what clients can anticipate of this 3rd Generation BlackBerry Storm. Critics just expect that this latest model would essentially have more improved features that is worth the wait and the ruckus.  But all that will be based on the hypothesis that the leaked image of the handset is actually justifiable and real.

If RIM, the business manufacturing BlackBerry phones, have perfected the design and technology of this model, all the past pessimism could turn out to be in their advantage. It could even optimistically help in improving the marketing and sales of their products notwithstanding the disappointments in the past.  But, until the BlackBerry Storm 3 is authoritatively launched and shown to the public, customers could justifiably, remain disbeliever.

Subsequent to the huge success of the iPad, with over 4 million units sold since its introduction, all mayor hardware vendors of PCs and mobile devices are coming with new tablets in the next several months, plus Apple with a slighter edition of the admired product. Forecasters guess the market for tablet devices (over 6” screen size) to be around 25 million units for 2011.

There are some Android tablets in the market now, habitually diminutive appliances from Asian providers trying to get a piece of the cake before the big guys get in, but I would wait until the solemn names release their products.

Samsung has already introduced their Galaxy tablet, based on the popular Android OS and a 1 GHz Hummingbird processor, begging to ship before the holidays.

There is serious buzz in the market about RIM (makers of the BlackBerry phones) to come out with a tablet based in their own OS. This could be what the business consumers are waiting for to carry in their cases for a short trip or to take home instead of their laptops.

HP is coming with an Android and a webOS tablet early next year, and they are talking about a Windows tablet too. I believe the webOS tablet could be the real deal for a different OS with numerous potentials that the previous Palm devices did not develop.

Back before everyone and his mature father had a Bluetooth phone everlastingly affixed to their ear, talking on a mobile gaget in public was a fail-safe way to let strangers know just how hectic and imperative you were. At the moment, people just appear to want to talk about what they’re having for dinner. So why can’t we stop eavesdropping? According to investigators at Cornell University, it doesn’t have anything to with your obsessive nosiness. Rather, it’s the speaker’s fault, for conducting a “halfalogue.” (Also known as a one-sided conversation.)

Scientific American writes that halfalogues “make for dissonant eavesdropping because they are unpredictable. The less information we glean from a conversation, the harder our brains work to make sense of what we hear and the more difficult it is to stop listening.” They also “demand more of our attention than dialogues and decrease our performance on other cognitive tasks—whether we are sitting at a computer in the lab, trying to read on the subway or driving a car.”

Vodafone has made itself some more internet enemies over the last few days, after rolling out a “branding” update for the Samsung Galaxy S it supplied to its contract clients.

The network has pushed out an update to the Galaxy S handset’s Android 2.1 OS that’s packed with Vodafone-branded features and apps, in a circumstances that flawlessly mirrors that of the HTC Desire branding update lurid.

Galaxy S owners on Vodafone who applied the newest over-the-air Android update now find themselves with the suite of Vodafone 360 apps on their phones, along with some unremovable game demos and shortcuts to Vodafone services. Which is a very odd thing for the network to do, after HTC Desire owners reacted with MASS FURY over the same situation a handful of weeks previously.
