Nokia and Intel are having a joint press conference at Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona. As it was speculated since last years annoucements, Nokia, which holds around 40% of the world mobile market, and Intel, the leading chip manufacturer, are merging their Maemo and Moblin open source softwares into MeeGo, a new Linux-based system, facing increasing pressure from the mobile industry – especially Apple and Google.
Many intrigues have already been surrounding Samsung’s Bada OS and it’s features, since its announcement in November 2009, even before it’s official presentation at MWC 2010 in Barcelona on Sunday evening. Questions that most frequently rise are – does the world need another Smartphone OS, and how is it different from the existing ones, especially Android and Windows Mobile? Even so, it seems as the new phone and OS are especially targeted towards bringing the already known functions to all the users at an affordable price, especially ones outside of the US, since it is aimed at users regardless of their geographic location and the app store will initially support 50 countries. Social networking aspect seems very important, too (now there’s a surprise!), although the phone protoype itself wasn’t used in the presentation, which was a bit disappointing to some of the attendees.
Other features of the phone include the ones we have seen before, like 3G and WiFi connectivity, GPS sensor, a motion sensor, WQVGA/WVGA display and multitouch-support running a new TouchWiz 3.0 UI.
It seems that Samsung Wave is just the beggining of the Bada (meaning “ocean” in Korean) story. We are looking forward to seeing (and touching) it live in the first part of the year.
Today the President did something unusual in American politics – initiated an open dialogue with members of the opposite party. Visiting the House Republican retreat, he took questions on anything they wanted to talk about. He heard them out, acknowledged where they were right, and gave a genuine explanation where he felt they were wrong.
It’s worth noting that the President is looking to answer your questions as well. That’s why immediately after the State of the Union, we partnered with YouTube to give you an opportunity to ask questions of the President.  Go and ask whatever you want, or just vote on other questions that your fellow citizens have submitted, and the President will answer some of those questions in a unique live event on Monday at WhiteHouse.gov.
