Amazon smartphone to support tilt gestures over touch: Report

Amazon smartphone to support tilt gestures over touch: Report

Amazon smartphone to support tilt gestures over touch: Report
The long-rumored Amazon phone will reportedly sport enough sensors to rival Microsoft's Kinect, and those sensors will enable some unique forms of interaction.

The long-rumored Amazon phone will reportedly sport enough sensors to rival Microsoft's Kinect, and those sensors will enable some unique forms of interaction. 

The Amazon smartphone will feature four infrared cameras on its front so it can effectively track the position of users' faces in relation to the display, according to BGR, which spoke with "multiple trusted sources" on the matter. 

Perhaps even more revolutionary than this set-up will be the Amazon handset's tilt controls, which may aim to make the large phone (4.7 inches, according to whispers) easier to use with one hand. 

It seems these tilt controls will not only replace existing essential functions, but also create new features, like revealing extraneous but helpful information without requiring touch interactions. 

Tilt to live
For example, tilting the Amazon phone in the maps app might reveal Yelp ratings for any visible restaurants. 

Or tilting the phone could reveal labels beneath icons in apps where they aren't normally present, in case you forget what a button does. 

The tilt gestures would be present in Amazon's included first-party apps, of course; tilting in Amazon's video store could reveal IMDB ratings, and moving the phone on Amazon.com product listings might flip between photos. 

However, the new controls might also cause menus that previously would have been accessed with a tap to slide onto the screen when the phone is tilted in the corresponding direction. 

Tilting could reveal the X-Ray menu in the Kindle app, or a photo pane in the messaging app, or extended forecasts in weather. And really obvious functions — like scrolling up and down in books and websites when the phone is tilted — would be possible as well. 

Read the signs
There's one more new feature of note, sources said: The Amazon phone will have special optical character recognition software that can interpret and convert text captured using its rear camera. 

Using this function you might snap a photo of a business card to have the phone automatically add information to your contacts, or be able to quickly translate signs written in a foreign language. 

There's plenty more we'd like to know about the Amazon phone, but for now there's no official word. That could change any time, so keep watching for more info

WhatsApp in numbers: 500 million users, 700 million photos, 100 million videos

WhatsApp in numbers: 500 million users, 700 million photos, 100 million videos

WhatsApp in numbers: 500 million users, 700 million photos, 100 million videos
WhatsApp CEO Jan Koum said that of these 500 million WhatsApp users, around 48 million are based in India. In Brazil, the service has 45 million users.

NEW DELHI: The numbers released by WhatsApp on Wednesday shows that the instant messaging app continues to find users at an astounding pace. In a blog post, WhatsApp announced that it now has over 500 million active users. These users share 700 million photos and 100 million videos daily. 

"Thanks to all of you, half a billion people around the world are now regular, active WhatsApp users," WhatsApp noted in a post on the official blog. "In the last few months, we've grown fastest in countries like Brazil, India, Mexico, and Russia, and our users are also sharing more than 700 million photos and 100 million videos every single day. We could go on, but for now, it's more important that we get back to work - because here at WhatsApp, we're just getting started." 

WhatsApp CEO Jan Koum told Recode, a website that covers technology news, that of these 500 million users, around 48 million are based in India. In Brazil, the service has 45 million users. 

WhatsApp, which started in 2009, was bought by Facebook in February in a deal worth $19 billion. When seen together, Facebook and WhatsApp now have nearly 1.5 billion active users, giving Facebook a huge reach, specially on mobiles. 

Earlier on April 1, WhatsApp had announced that its users exchanged 64 billion messages in 24 hours, setting a new record for the service. 

However, despite the huge user base, it is not yet clear how Facebook will monetise WhatsApp. The instant messaging app doesn't show advertisements and both Koum and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg have said that this won't change anytime soon. 

Koum told Recode that despite the fast growth, WhatsApp was not yet thinking about monetisation. He said the focus remained on providing clean and usable instant messaging service. 

"There's not enough money and not enough celebrities in the world to convince people to use a shitty product. People are so savvy these days. People expect a good user experience," Koum told Recode. 

He also said the free voice calls feature on WhatsApp would be available to users in the coming months

Apple and Nike may announce iBand this year


Apple and Nike may announce iBand this year

Apple and Nike may announce iBand this year
Geektime says it's spoken to two sources in Cupertino with knowledge of what Apple is up to and they say that Apple and Nike are plotting a joint product for launch before the Christmas season.
We thought there was something a bit fishy about Nike confirming that it is laying off staff in its Fuelband division - according to a new report, there might be more to this story than either Apple or Nike are letting on. 

Geektime says it's spoken to two sources in Cupertino with knowledge of what Apple is up to and they say that Apple and Nike are plotting a joint product for launch before the Christmas season. 

That general era has been pegged to the iWatch before but the latest claim is that this won't be so much an iWatch as an iBand. The sources claim that Apple will launch a smart band packed with sensors not only for monitoring user activity but also for operating other devices (such as iPhones and iPads) via gesture controls. 

Band it about
The report says that Nike "will play a significant part" in whatever product Apple is putting the final touches to, which may explain why it doesn't sound too committed to any future Fuelbands right now. 

It also plays well with another rumour that Nike is planning to open up its software to other wearable devices, including Apple's anticipated wearable.
If Apple does have an iBand planned, it could make sense for Cupertino and Nike to team up: Apple gets the benefit of Nike's existing fitness tech and expertise and Nike doesn't risk being eclipsed by Apple's wearable smartband.

Octa-core processor in Windows Phone? Not anytime soon


Octa-core processor in Windows Phone? Not anytime soon

Octa-core processor in Windows Phone? Not anytime soon
Though to be fair to Microsoft, the benefits of eight-core processors in a phone are not yet apparent. 

NEW DELHI: With the latest update - Windows Phone 8.1 - to its mobile operating system, Microsoft may have achieved parity with the Android on the software side but the company has no immediate plans to join the core race and support handsets running eight-core processors. This is in stark contrast to Android phone companies, which are rushing to market with handsets that are powered by eight-core processors.

Though to be fair to Microsoft, the benefits of eight-core processors in a phone are not yet apparent. Apple, which sells iPhones, also doesn't use four-core or eight-core processors. The iPhone 5S uses a dual-core processor but offers ample performance for smooth user interface.

Vineet Durani, who heads Windows Phone division in Microsoft in India, told TOI that currently the company supports only Qualcomm hardware and for a foreseeable future this is not likely to change. The eight-core processors powering a number of handsets in Indian market are made by MediaTek, a Taiwanese firm. Samsung also makes eight-core processors and uses them in its high-end phones like Galaxy S5 and Galaxy S4.

Currently, Qualcomm doesn't make eight-core processors. But the company has announced two eight-core processors -- Snapdragon 615 and Snapdragon 810 - that will be available to phone companies by around the end of this year. The phones powered by these processors will come to market in 2015.

"We don't have any plans to explore chipsets (processors and RAM etc) made by others... At this point of time companies making Windows Phone have to use the Qualcomm hardware," said Durani. "I can't comment on the future but I can say that we are highly committed to Qualcomm hardware. Qualcomm is a great partner and I don't see any reason to look at anybody else right now because the objective really is to push out great devices... affordable devices and we feel that we can do it with the Qualcomm hardware."

However, unlike in the past when Microsoft tightly controlled the Windows Phone platform, now the company is more accommodating. For local firms like Micromax and Lava it is now much easier to come out with a Windows Phone device. The most important change has been removal of the license fee that Microsoft used to charge for Windows Phone OS.

Microsoft has tied up with Chinese ODMs (original design manufacturers) like Foxconn and Longcheer. Any company that wants to enter the Windows Phone market can buy handsets from these ODMs and sell units locally after rebranding them. This is similar to the model used by many Indian phone companies for Android phones.

"The only difference (from Android ecosystem) is that we require certain level of hardware performance for a Windows Phone device. We have licensing agreements with Chinese ODMs and (local) companies can directly approach the ODMs to get Windows Phone devices. They don't even have to talk to Microsoft India," said Durani.

He said that hardware requirements are to make sure that Windows Phone users get a good experience. "Because you are adhering to a certain set of specifications, the performance of all Windows Phone devices is at a level that is acceptable to us," said Durani

Chinese smartphone brand Xiaomi is coming to India in 2014

Chinese smartphone brand Xiaomi is coming to India in 2014
Xiaomi, the China based handset maker known for its aggressive pricing, is coming to India in 2014. 

NEW DELHI: It's official! Xiaomi, the China based handset maker known for its aggressive pricing, is coming to India in 2014.

Xiaomi's official Twitter handle posted a tweet saying, "Xiaomi is coming to 10 countries in 2014! Malaysia, Philippines, India, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Russia, Turkey, Brazil and Mexico..."
The company has not shared any specifics related to the launch time frame. The announcement comes a day after the company renamed its official website from Xiaomi.com to Mi.com, signalling global expansion. The company sells its flagship smartphones under the 'Mi' sub-brand. Xiaomi's Android-based mobile operating system is also known as MIUI.


Last month, Hugo Barra, vice president of Xiaomi and formerly the vice president of product management for Android, had told technology website CNET in an interview that the company was set to enter India with aggressively priced products. He added that Xiaomi plans to sell phones almost close to cost and that Xiaomi's phones in India will promise performance and quality.

Google India's head, Rajan Anandan had also tweeted about his meeting with Xiaomi executives and had said that the India, which is the second-fastest growing smartphone market in the world after China, is set to change.

Xiaomi, which will be the third known Chinese player after Gionee and Oppo, is working on forming relationships with telecom operators and partners in India. This does not include larger Chinese players like Lenovo, Huawei and ZTE, who have already been present in India.

Xiaomi has a unique business model - it makes a limited number of smartphones that are sold only on the internet. It has tasted success with this method. It sold 10,000 units of its Red Rice smartphone in 36 seconds in November 2013. It has also sold 2,00,000 smartphones in three minutes on last year's Singles Day, which is celebrated as China's answer to Valentine's Day. Xiaomi is regarded as the biggest threat to Apple and Samsung in China

Trai to soon fix minimum internet speed for mobiles

Trai to soon fix minimum internet speed for mobiles

Trai to soon fix minimum internet speed for mobiles
Trai will soon fix the minimum download speed the telecom operators will have to deliver for wireless data services.

NEW DELHI: Sick of dead slow internet connection on mobile? Relief is on the way as regulator Trai will soon fix the minimum download speed the telecom operators will have to deliver for wireless data services. 

"The Authority (Trai) has been receiving a number of complaints from consumers regarding the poor download speed experienced by them. The Authority after examining the issue felt that there is now a need to mandate the 'minimum download speed' for the wireless data services," Trai said in its latest consultation process. 

At present, there is no binding regulation on telecom operators to deliver wireless service at a particular minimum speed. 

3G operators promise mobile Internet speed in the range of 7.1 megabit per second (mbps) to 21 mbps. At 7.1 mbps speed, a mobile user should be able to download a full-length movie in around 12-14 minutes. 

But invariable, it takes around 40 minutes to download a a file size equivalent to that of a movie on the best network. 

The minimum speed reported by operators to Trai lies in the range of 399 kbps (minimum broadband speed is 512 kbps) to 2.48 mbps. 

The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) has found the minimum speed delivered by an operators doesn't even qualify to be called broadband. 

The wireless data services include mobile internet and broadband services like 2G, 3G and those offered using dongles. 

The regulator is of the view that the minimum download speed for 3G and CDMA EVDO service should be 1 megabit per second with 95% success rate. For GSM and CDMA 2G the minimum speed should be at 56 kilobit per second and for CDMA high speed data it is 512 kbps. 

Trai has sought public views on its consultation by May 5 and counter comments on it by May 1

5.5-inch iPhone delayed till 2015: Report


5.5-inch iPhone delayed till 2015: Report

5.5-inch iPhone delayed till 2015: Report
The 5.5-inch version of Apple iPhone has been delayed till 2015 according to a new report.
NEW DELHI: iPhone fans may have to wait more to get their hands on the large-screen version of Apple's flagship smartphone. 

The 5.5-inch version of Apple iPhone has been delayed till 2015 according to a report by Taiwan's Industrial and Commercial Times. The report mentions that the Cupertino giant is struggling to find a battery that could fit in the new iPhone's thin form factor. Earlier, an analyst had suggested that the 5.5-inch iPhone would be launched in the fourth quarter of 2014. However, a Reuters report had stated that the 5.5-inch version of the iPhone could be delayed because of difficulties with in-cell production technology. 

As per the report, Apple suppliers are calling the 5.5-inch iPhone, 'iPhone Air' and not iPhone 6, but it's not certain that this will be the final name for the smartphone. It won't be surprising if Apple adds the 'Air' suffix to the name of the phone given that it is rumoured to sport a very thin profile. 

iPhone 6 is said to have a 64-bit A8 processor, 1GB RAM, LTPS LCD display panels, optical image stabilization, Touch ID fingerprint sensor, metal casings and NFC. The upcoming iPhones are expected to be 6.5-7mm thick and have 10-20% narrower bezels around the screen. Only the 64GB version of the 5.5-inch iPhone will have sapphire glass, according to KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.

Brilliant Jadeja helps CSK defend a modest total vs RR

Jadeja put up an allround show guiding CSK to a close win. 






















While the Indian Premier League is having a hard time in the Supreme Court having to defend itself against allegations of betting, the two most affected teams by the scandal - Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals - played out a classic with CSK coming out on top by seven runs thanks to Ravindra Jadeja's brilliant 4 for 33 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Wednesday night.

When CSK posted 140 for 6 on the board, RR looked on course for their second win in three matches. However, things turned out differently for them with Abhishek Nayar's foolish run-out in the first over proving to be a big portent of defeat. Sanju Samson hit Ben Hilfenhaus for two attractive sixes, however, to put RR in the ascendancy before Ajinkya Rahane's (15) careless shot against R Ashwin opened the floodgates for CSK. It was completely Jadeja's show thereafter.

The India left-arm spinner bowled a nagging line to account for Shane Watson (7), Samson (16), Steven Smith (19) and Tim Southee (4) to put RR completely out of the contest. While Wastson and Smith picked out Hilfenhaus and Faf du Plessis at long-off, Samson gave a simple return catch. Amidst Jadeja's excellent bowling, medium pacer Mohit Sharma and Ishwar Pandey also got rid of allrounders Stuart Binny (8) and James Faulkner (4).

Rajat Bhatia (23) and Dhawal Kulkarni (28) tried to take the fight to the opposition but their efforts weren't enough as RR were bowled out for 133 in 19.5 overs. RR needed 24 runs in the last over and when Kulkarni hit Ashwin for two big sixes, it looked like the match was going the other way. With nine needed off two balls, Pravin Tambe ran himself out failing to respond to batsman Kulkarni's call for two in time, resulting in a narrow defeat.

Earlier, CSK got off to a flier largely because of Dwayne Smith whose power-hitting at the start made RR captain Watson's decision to field look bad at first. In the 35-run opening stand with Brendon McCullum, the West Indian scored the majority of the runs entertaining the spectators a great deal especially by means of two sixes, one over bowler James Faulkner's head, the other one off Southee, on debut for RR, over long-off.

After McCullum departed for six thanks to a brilliant running-backwards catch by Steven at midwicket off Faulkner, an undeterred Dwayne smacked Faulkner for four fours in the same over. Dwayne's dominance could be gauged from the fact that out of CSK's 59, fifty came off his bat. Against the run of play, however, the right-hander found Watson at mid-off off Stuart Binny's next ball after his fifty, bringing du Plessis at the crease to accompany Suresh Raina.

After Dwayne's (50 off 28 balls, 6x4s, 3x6s), CSK's innings didn't remain the same. A flurry of wickets saw them reduced from 59 for 2 to 101 for 5, thanks to some excellent bowling from Bhatia and legspinner Pravin Tambe. While Raina (4) fell to a slow cutter bowled by Bhatia, du Plessis (7) was unfortunate to be run-out at the non-striker's end as the ball deflected off bowler Bhatia's hand on to the stumps. Captain MS Dhoni (5) fell to a poor shot off Tambe as Faulkner took a simple catch at deep square leg.

Jadeja and Mithun Manhas tried to forge a partnership but all they could manage was 27 before Manhas (10) found Rahane off the bowling of fellow Delhiman Bhatia. Do what they would, Jadeja (36*) and Ashwin (8*) failed to score quick runs in the last few overs, leaving RR bowlers to defend a modest target.

Brief score: CSK 140 for 6 in 20 overs (Smith 50, Jadeja 36*; Bhatia 2/13) beat RR 133 in 19.5 overs (Kulkarni 28*, Bhatia 23; Jadeja 4/33) by seven runs

Wipro to hire 150 frontline sales staff in US

Wipro to hire 150 frontline sales staff in US

Wipro to hire 150 frontline sales staff in US
Wipro will hire some 150 frontline sales staff in the United States in a singular development that denotes the company’s twin ambitions of boosting revenue and presenting a local face in its main market. Over the next 3-5 months, Wipro will have hired young college graduates as well as experienced sales veterans to build up its team in US cities where it currently does not have presence, people familiar with the company’s thinking said.
While Indian companies have been increasing their hiring in the United States, mainly employing software engineers, the Bangalore-based company’s decision to rapidly expand its sales team represents a new level of commitment to the United States. So far, Indians have been dominant in frontline sales, where salaries are lucrative and successful executives receive a share as bonus depending on the size of contracts they win.
“It helps when your front-end sales guy can talk about baseball, NBA and show some cultural closeness,” said Pradeep Mukherji, president and managing partner at Avasant, a Los Angeles-based technology advisory firm. “And then comes the political angle. Indian companies have to show they are job creators in America.”
Wipro CEO TK Kurien, whose strategy of reviving Wipro’s sales as the company looks to improve its growth rates after under-performing India’s IT services industry for nearly two years. Indian software services companies, which get more than half of their revenue from the US, have high hopes for that market this year as economic growth returns and large enterprises spend more on technology. For Wipro, particularly, its ability to increase market share in the US will be crucial to chief executive TK Kurien’s plans for gaining growth momentum.
Ashish Chopra, a vice president at Mumbai-based brokerage firm Motilal Oswal, said Wipro is refurbishing its sales strategy in overseas markets as it faces growing competition from larger rivals such as IBM and Accenture. “They are hiring local sales staff to offer better interface in front of clients and it has worked very well for companies like Cognizant.” The US contributed 50 per cent to Wipro’s sales during 2013-14.

More Indians choose to work in India due to slowdown

More Indians choose to work in India due to slowdown

More Indians choose to work in India due to slowdown
40 per cent Indians are cautious about moving to the West for jobs due to the economic slowdown, according to a TimesJobs.com study. The study also indicates that highly skilled professionals are returning home seeking the economic opportunities that they once sought abroad. 
The study further pointed out that 34 per cent still prefer to move to west for a job, while 26 per cent would like to turn entrepreneurs. Out of the total respondents who mentioned that more Indians are seeking job opportunities in India, 28 per cent believe that maximum job opportunities are in IT/Telecom and Manufacturing sector.
Nearly 60 per cent of all the organisations also said that they are experiencing an influx of human capital from foreign shores in an earlier TimesJobs.com study. With 37 per cent of them reporting that the workforce inflow is maximum at the middle level.
TimesJobs.com data also indicates that there has been a drop in the number of applications for international positions. It dropped by 4 per cent in Jan’14 from an average 1 per cent increase in Nov-Dec’13. However, during Jan-Mar’14 it did register an overall increase on 3 per cent.
Why are they coming back?
Besides the fear of global uncertainty, it is the lure of job security and better future prospects that are bringing the talent back home, believe 58 per cent of the surveyed organisations. Good salary combined with benefits (extra allowances and perks is also playing a major role in bringing back the professionals to India, said 25 per cent of the employers in the TimesJobs.com study.
Where are the opportunities? 
Maximum job opportunities are in Manufacturing and Petrochemicals sector. Since, these sectors will be witnessing a huge number of workforce getting retired in the next 5 years, they are on a look out for experienced candidates, revealed experts in the TimesJobs.com RecruiteX report. For senior/leadership positions international exposure is deemed crucial, hence, the returning workforce has bright chances getting top jobs in these sectors. 
The Western perspective…
While the candidates are apprehensive about taking up a job in the international market, the global employers are still vying for Indian talent. TimesJobs.com data shows that across international locations, engineers, IT and accounting & finance professionals are most sought after. Demand is huge for talent with 5-10 years of experience, followed by 10-20 years of experience. UAE and North America have emerged as the most active global locations.
According to Jappreet Sethi, HR consultant and author of humanresourcesblog.in, “Whilst the western economy is slowly getting back on track, the number of people without a good job remains high. There are enough stories of Indians losing jobs and having to move back to base country for newer opportunities. India is seeing a good influx of talent, which is well adept in systems and processes.”
R P Yadav, chairman and managing director, Genius Consultants Ltd shares a similar point of view, “Job seekers are finding it difficult to get a lucrative job in the west. They are also apprehensive about the continuity of the job at hand. India seems a better place in terms of job security, plus they are closer home. Therefore, most of them are seeking a job in India and are cautious to move to the west.”
