A study published in tomorrow’s issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association confirms what researchers have long suspected: that long conversations on cell phones affect parts of your brain. Trouble is, not even the study’s authors, the National Institute of Health, know how the calls affect you — just that they light up a significant chunk of your gray matter near the phone.
“We don’t know whether this is detrimental or whether it could have some potential beneficial effects. We don’t know one way or the other,” lead author Dr. Nora Volkow told HealthDay.
Potential beneficial effects? Well, yes. All the study found when it tracked 47 mobile-toting participants for one year was this: brain metabolism in a small area nearest the antenna was 7% higher when they were on a 50-minute call. So cell phones boost brain activity. (Specifically, they raise glucose levels.) Doesn’t sound so bad when put like that, does it? For all we know, blasting your brain with focused radio waves could be the mental equivalent of going to the gym. Glucose levels rise with just about any complex brain activity. For comparison, that 7% metabolism boost is less than the amount of energy it takes to process images via your eyes.
Of course, for all we know, the long-term effects could be pretty scary. Tumor cells need a lot of glucose, too. But that may be no more than coincidence. Researchers were careful to tiptoe around the C-word. And with good reason: as Ars Technica points out, in biology, there is absolutely no known mechanism that could lead from low-energy, long-wavelength radiation to cancer. A giant, 13-nation study begun in 2000 still hasn’t found any proof linking the two. Cell phone users, science is on your side — for now.
Bottom line: we know relatively little about brain science and even less about cell phone use. Decades of further study is going to be needed for a definitive answer. We’ve all heard anecdotes from friends about how calls give them headaches, or a buzzing sensation. They could be right, or they could be hypochondriacs. Maybe cell phones affect each brain differently. At the moment, there’s just no way of telling.
If you’re concerned, be like Dr. Volkow — who told TIME that she’s started using a $5 headset so she doesn’t have to hold her phone to her ear any more. “Maybe at the end of the day cell phones aren’t damaging,” she said. “But it’s only $5.”

More than 7.5 million mobile phones valued at over RM4.5 billion were sold in Malaysia last year.
In a statement here Wednesday, market research firm, GfK Malaysia said consumers snapped up over 24 per cent more units of mobile phones which grew the overall value of the industry by 30 per cent compared to 2009.
Smartphones were the key contributors to the industry's good performance.
Since the beginning of 2010, value sales of smartphones had been consistently increasing monthly and occupied 72 per cent of the overall pie by December.
GfK Malaysia's general manager, Jennifer Chan said greater mobility and the need to stay connected for work and play are some of the reasons for the rising trend of smartphone ownership.
Consumers are also spoilt for choice when it comes to the various operating system (OS) offered by phone makers.
In terms of contribution to overall sales, smartphones in the price range of between RM500 and RM1499 occupied 64 per cent, with the bigger chunk of 38 per cent contributed by sales of those costing over RM1000.
"We can expect the smartphone industry to continue its upward growth trend in the high double digits in 2011 and beyond," said Chan.

Nokia shareholders have thrown their toys of the pram, demanding that the company’s CEO, Stephen Elop, hands in his resignation.
Following Elop’s newly-formed Microsoft alliance, a group of nine Nokia shareholders have issued an open letter to his company, labelled “Plan B”. No, it’s not a letter declaring their love for the British rapper-come-actor, it instead demands for the ex-Microsoft chief to resign from Nokia.
The letter criticises the newly-formed Nokia/Windows Phone partnership, asking for the platform to be dropped as the company’s primary OS. Instead, they are proposing that MeeGo be reinstated as the primary platform, and that Symbian should be “guaranteed for a minimum of five years.”
In the letter, the group demands that Nokia executives “Return the company to a strategy that seeks high growth and high profit margins through innovation and overwhelmingly superior products and unrivaled user experience”.
The shareholders are intending to present Plan B at the company’s next general meeting on May 3rd this year.

What's better than receiving a text message? How about a text in 3-D?
That's the potential of a smartphone from LG, which has a large 4.3-inch touchscreen capable of displaying three-dimensional images without the need for special glasses. A pair of cameras on the back allows users to take 3-D photographs and videos.
LG is hoping its groundbreaking phone, with the hottest entertainment-focused technology on the market, will ride the 3-D wave being pushed by Hollywood, TV networks and other creators of media content.
The method LG uses to accomplish this effect is called "switchable barrier," which is similar to how Nintendo's 3DS can do 3-D without requiring the player to wear glasses.
LG showed the phone, called the Optimus 3D, this week at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. The company didn't provide a release date or price, though spokespeople have said it will be affordable.
Demonstration units on display at the conference let attendees watch 3-D movies. They also provided a few 3-D games to play. That could pose a threat to the temporary monopoly Nintendo was poised to get on portable 3-D gaming when its handheld game system launches in March.
With the proliferation of 3-D TVs in the market, the Optimus 3D could help people begin shooting and archiving cutting-edge family pictures and home videos. The phone can hook up to a 3-D TV with a cable to display media on the big screen.
LG's G-Slate, a tablet that runs Google's Android 3.0 software and is slated for a March release, can also capture 3-D pictures and video. The tablet can't display 3-D on its screen, but like the phone, the G-Slate can be connected to a 3-D TV set.
The Optimus 3D has caused quite a stir this week at Mobile World Congress. However, so far it offers no spinning 3-D text messages or eye-popping dial pads, meaning Android app developers have a new mission to fulfill.

Besides the two Facebook-enabled mid-range Android smartphones and a slew of high-end Android devices, HTC has also launched a powerful aluminum tablet called HTC Flyer.
The device should really be flying with a 1.5 GHz CPU (single-core), 1 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage space (further expandable with microSD memory cards). It also features a 1024 x 600 7-inch screen, a 5-megapixel camera on the back and an additional 1.3-megapixel one on the front for video calls.
It’s a powerful machine, but it does lack one thing its competitors have: Android Honeycomb. The HTC Flyer will be running an improved version of Android Gingerbread and a special version of HTC’s Sense UI designed for tablets.
Furthermore, with a 7-inch screen, it’s smaller than most of its new competitors, such as the Motorola Xoom and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. HTC will probably have to follow up on the Flyer soon if it wants to catch a sizable chunk of the tablet market.

HTC showed off its ChaCha and Salsa "social phones," equipped with Facebook buttons, at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, on Tuesday.
The Facebook buttons lead users directly to the popular social networking website or post content to it automatically, depending on what is being done on the phone at the time.
The new handsets are among the first of what is expected to be dozens of such Faceook-integrated phones to come out this year.
The ChaCha and Salsa arrive after weeks of rumors that Facebook would release it's own smart phones.
Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg again denied the rumors of a Facebook-branded phone, but he said greater integration and more Facebook buttons were on the way.
Both the ChaCha and Salsa run on Google's Android operating system. The ChaCha features a 2.6-inch display and a full physical keyboard, while the Salsa has a 3.4-inch touch screen display.
HTC said the ChaCha and Salsa were developed with Facebook in an effort by the handset maker to turn more of Facebook's 500 million active users worldwide into HTC customers.
The Facebook button on the ChaCha and Salsa is "context-aware, gently pulsing with light whenever there is an opportunity to share content or updates through Facebook," HTC said in a statement.
"With a single press of the button, you can update your status, upload a photo, share a website, post what song you are listening to, 'check in' to a location and more."
When a user snaps a photo, one press of the button uploads it to his or her Facebook page. If a user is listening to a song and presses the Facebook button, the song is automatically identified by the phone and shared on Facebook.
Facebook messages and conversations also appear in the ChaCha's and Salsa's text message and e-mail in boxes.
"We have worked closely with HTC for several years on bringing Facebook to their devices and HTC ChaCha and HTC Salsa are the next stage," said Henri Moissinac, head of mobile business for Facebook. "HTC has brought Facebook to these two new devices in an innovative way enabling people to connect and share easily whenever they want, wherever they are."
Both phones are slated to release in the second quarter of the year. HTC did not offer specifics on price.

Google Inc.'s Android software has become the world's second-largest smartphone operating system (OS) thanks to the broad availability of high-end products from HTC, Samsung and Motorola, according to a recent statement by information technology research company Gartner Inc.
Sales of high-end smartphones, including HTC's Desire range, Samsung's Galaxy S and Motorola's Droid series, pushed the Android OS to the No. 2 spot in the fourth quarter and for the whole of 2010, nearly nine times higher at 67.22 million units last year compared with the 6.8 million units sold in 2009, the statement said.
This helped the Android OS to clinch a 22.7 percent market share last year compared with 3.9 percent in 2009, while Research In Motion (RIM) fell to third place with a 16 percent share in 2010 from 19.9 percent in 2009, according to the statement.
Nokia's Symbian OS still topped the list with a 37.6 percent market share, with Apple's iOS moving down to fourth with a 15.7 percent share and Microsoft's Windows dropping to fifth with 4.2 percent.
The smartphone market remained concentrated in advanced markets such as Western Europe and North America, where buyers have more disposable income and where networks are fast enough to support the full range of smartphone features, according to Gartner.
"With the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2011 taking place next week, we can expect smartphones and tablets to be at center stage at the show, " said Carolina Milanesi, research vice president at Gartner, in the statement.
She said a number of new application announcements such as 3D technology and improved user interfaces around touch, as well as faster networks based on wireless Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology, are expected to be available on the new smartphones.
According to media reports, HTC, the world's fifth-biggest smartphone maker, is set to unveil its Desire 2 smartphone with a middle-range price of between US$300 (NT$8,790) and US$400 during the Feb. 14-17 MWC in Spain, and the Taiwan-based company also plans to feature its first tablet computer, Flyer, at the same time.
Meanwhile, HTC's strong rival Samsung is expected to launch its Android-based Galaxy S2 smartphone and the Galaxy Tab 2 tablet at the fair, which will be equipped with the company's own dual-core processors.

By now, you know that Nokia decided to side with Microsoft and Windows Phone 7 instead of Google and Android. Why didn't they want Android? Because Nokia felt that that would be going down without a fight.
Nokia considered three OSes to move to: MeeGo, Android or Windows Phone 7. In talking about Android, Elop admits to its strength but also points out some weaknesses:
"There's something happening there. There's no denying that. [But] our sense was differentiation could be a pretty big challenge. The risk for commoditization would increase dramatically."
Nokia knew that it was too late to join the Android party—Android had become a crowded space. Creating a standout Android phone would not only be difficult given the experience of other companies but because it could get lost in the maul of Android phones available. Even Android phone makers would admit that it's hard to stay at the top of the Android power rankings—hell, doesn't it seem like the "best Android phone" only has a lifespan of a month before it gets dethroned? Nokia saw Google eventually getting all the profits as hardware gets commoditized.
And maybe Windows Phone 7 will have those same hardware "issues" as Android but Nokia felt it could differentiate its handsets by dropping in Nokia specific features like their Navteq location-based services. That, they felt, would give them a leg up.
But none of those arguments seem to matter as much as this one: Nokia didn't want to lose the smartphone wars without giving Google and Apple an honest fight. Choosing Android would mean that they'd become a bit player in a two-horse race (Apple vs Google). Choosing Windows Phone means they're hoping and fighting to add another horse. It might be too late and maybe Nokia had to sell their soul, who knows, but I respect any one who goes down swinging.

Nokia CEO Stephen Elop is currently on stage at MWC in Barcelona, and he's had a few choice things to say about the recent announcement that Nokia will partner with Microsoft to create devices which run Windows Phone software. Elop told the crowd assembled there that Nokia's "first priority is beating Android," and he also took a moment to let everyone know that Nokia is not interested in being the only company producing Windows Phones -- countering some recent exclusivity chatter. The presentation is still going on, so we'll keep you updated.

While we're probably still years or decades away from getting our very own animatronic clones, Google's released the next best thing for the time being. Available on the Android Market is this Androidify app, which, as the name says for itself, lets us mere mortals craft our very own Android mascot lookalikes. Hell, you can even slap on some facial hair or a baby droid while you're at it. We'll say no more -- see the app in action after the break, if you're not already busy dishing out your new avatar across the web.

Shortly after that leak of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1″ specs, now there are new pictures of the new tablet and the Galaxy S2 smartphone, too.
Along with these pics comes confirmation of those specs we reported on earlier — the 10.1-inch Galaxy Tab has an 8-megapixel camera with HD recording and playback, 1200 x 800 resolution, and runs the Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) OS.
The 8.49mm-thin Samsung Galaxy S II Smartphone doesn’t have the 1.2 GHz dual-core processor rumored before, but according to Samsung Hub it has a 1GHz dual core processor, weighs just over 4 ounces, and has a a 4.27-inch AMOLED WVGA display.
We have the pics, we have the numbers, and now we have boots on the ground in Barcelona — Mashable’s Chris Taylor and Stan Schroeder will have first-hand reports about these two devices and many more from Barcelona all week.

You’ve held out for months, waiting and watching the market for some sign of a tablet that you think you’d like. But maybe you’re asking the wrong question. Instead of “Which tablet should I buy?” maybe you should be asking why you need a tablet in the first place?
We’ve written out a brief guide to deciding whether you need a tablet at all. As for a recommendation, the two devices we can unequivocally recommend right now are the iPad and, if you’re into Android, the Galaxy Tab (although there is some talk of an upgrade coming soon). However, don’t buy right now. The iPad 2 is on its way and the Xoom, Playbook, and TouchPad, are coming soon as well.
So before you break out the credit card, let’s talk about a few reasons to buy a tablet… and a few reasons not to.
1. Tablets make great e-readers.
Although many would complain that the reading experience isn’t nearly as focused as single-purpose e-ink devices, and the text isn’t as legible, these drawbacks haven’t stopped users from cracking open PDFs, comics, long web articles, and so on tablets. Plus kids books are fun in full color, something Kindle can’t yet beat.
2. Tablets are portable productivity stations.
There’s nothing like a calendar and an email window on a big screen. Although many of our phones now run PIM applications, the real estate afforded by a tablet makes for a far superior experience.
3. Tablets are better than older laptops.
If you don’t need to type a lot, tablets will handle more content than a two-year-old laptop, and there are more modern apps and games.
4. Tablets are great for meetings.
While you should probably paying attention during meetings, tablets are a great way to take notes unobtrusively and, when things get boring, play Angry Birds on mute.
5. Tablets are great for sharing photos and 1-on-1 presentations.
Tablets are excellent for a communal photo sharing experience and are a boon for insurance adjusters, real estate folks, and salespeople. Having everything in front of you in cool little device sure beats firing up a laptop and running a presentation.
6. Tablets are great for movies and music.
There’s nothing better in the car for kids than a copy of Cars or Dora on an iPad. Our kids love it and a tablet costs a bit less than installing soon-to-be-obsolete DVD-powered LCDs in the headrest. I also enjoy taking the iPad on a plane for movies, a job that used to go to the iPod Touch.
7. Tablets are cheaper than a new laptop.
Your old coffee table laptop died and you’re thinking about a new netbook. Don’t bother. Tablets, as we said before, are on par or more powerful than a standard ~$500 laptop.
8. Tablets don’t crash.
Or at least when they do crash it’s not a big deal. A quick restart is is all it takes to get them back on track.
9. Tablets are good for travel.
Tablets usually work with Wi-Fi and 3G networks and the large screen and storage space is great for maps, guides, and dictionaries. Think of your tablet as a Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy.
10. Tablets are just cool.
They make you feel like you’re from the future.
And now, Five Reasons Tablets Aren’t Ready
1. Are tablets as portable as the phone you already have?
You can stick your phone in your pocket and never know it’s there, but can you do the same with an iPad or TouchPad? I don’t think so, unless your name happens to be Baggin’ Saggin’ Barry. Is carrying an extra bag to holster your tablet the end of the world? Clearly not, no, but don’t try to tell me it’s as portable as my handy little Android (or whatever) phone when it’s patently not.
2. Where are the games?
And by games I don’t mean things like Angry Birds, with all due respect to our fine feathered friends. Will I be able to play 64-play multi-player in Battlefield with a tablet? Will I be able to waste hundreds of hours playing World of Warcraft? What about Crysis 2? Tablets may have their place in the world, but playing real games to the fullest will always require a discrete GPU-backed PC.
3. How much work can you do on one of these things?
Do they run Photoshop? How long will it take to render video? My guess is that my desktop PC, with its overclocked (to 4.0GHz) quad-core processor and hundreds of gigabytes of free space, will be able to render a video 800 times in succession before a tablet can render a video just once.
4. “You can browse the Web with a tablet while watching TV on your couch! And movies look great on them!” All fair points, but I can already browse the Web on my couch with my battle-tested laptop, so why get another device to do the same thing? That doesn’t make much sense, does it? As for movies, well, I prefer watching them on with a proper setup—Blu-ray player, big screen TV, surround sound, the works—as opposed to watching them cramped on a train, or even hunched over in bed.
5. Something better will come along in a few months.
Remember when netbooks were all the rage a couple of years ago? The future of computing, and so forth. You barely see them mentioned anymore, and that’s because tablets are the new soup du jour. In four years we’ll all be writing “Remember tablets?” articles, lamenting having spent all that money on a silly piece of transitionary technology.

Well, this is a bit of a surprise. Research in Motion is reportedly working to ensure that the BlackBerry PlayBook can support some apps from the Google Android platform.
According to Bloomberg, anonymous sources have said,
RIM plans to integrate the technology with the PlayBook operating system, giving customers access to Android’s more than 130,000 apps, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the effort isn’t public. RIM, after looking outside the company, is developing the software internally and may have it ready in the second half, two people said.
However, RIM won’t be using Google’s Dalvik Java software due to patent issues. Given how many more apps there are for Android than BlackBerry OS, this will certainly boost the usefulness of the entire slate.
Android certainly is growing in popularity, and given that we don’t have a BlackBerry tablet precedent, it might be helpful to have a feature that is familiar to a wider audience to bring more customers in. This doesn’t mean that the PlayBook is automatically going to be come the “iPad killer” that everyone is looking for, but it will certainly garner some extra attention it might not have otherwise.

The first Nokia Windows Phone 7 concept has arrived. Mere hours after Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer took the stage in London Friday to announce a partnership between the two technology giants, Engadget received leaked photos of the first concept phone design born of the new marriage.
Yes, they’re very pretty. Very pretty. We know. But don’t get your giddy little hopes up too high just yet — these are only “concepts.” Which, of course, means we don’t have a single hardware specification, release date, or any other concrete detail to deliver.
What this does show us, however, is the direction Nokia-Microsoft plan to head — straight down a path filled with slim, sexy and colorful smartphones. At least, that’s presumably what the folks who leaked these images to Engadgethappen want us to think, since chances are good that these pictures didn’t just to come out on the same day that the two companies made major partnership announcement, if you catch our drift.
About that partnership: In the face of strengthening competition from devices running Android or Apple’s iOS, Nokia will adopt Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 as its primary operating system. That means Nokia will begin to phase-out phones using its Symbian OS, including low-level phones, eventually.
Microsoft will continue to offer Windows Phone 7 as a licensed platform, but the two companies plan to work closely together to develop a hearty competitor for the burgeoning market of Android- and iOS-based devices.
So far, it’s difficult to gauge whether or not this relationship will bear money-making fruit. We believe that, by making the Nokia-Microsoft partnership a flexible one, the companies have set themselves up for success as best they can. That’s not to say they can easily compete in the increasingly cut-throat smartphone race. But it does mean they have a fighting chances. Especially if their phones are as pleasant to use as these concepts are to behold.
