China says no limits on use of Google’s Android
Google’s Android operating system has got a clean chit from China’s government!
According to the government’s remark on Wednesday, Google’s android phone will face no limits on its use by China’s phone companies as long as it complies with Chinese regulations.
The Chinese government has assured that the dispute over the web censorship would not affect their relationship. Google Inc. had postponed the launch of its own smart phone in China following its Jan. 12 announcement that it will no longer censor search results.
While many other companies in China are also developing Android-based phones, penalizing Google could hurt their market too.
At a news briefing, Zhu Hongren, a spokeman for the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology said, “As long as it fulfills Chinese laws and regulations and has good communication with telecom operators, I think its application should not have restrictions.”
Google to launch Chrome OS
Google is now thinking a step forward, this time a giant leap to capture users!
After having challenged Microsoft’s Internet Explorer already with the launch of its browser Chrome, the internet search giant is now planning the launch of its very own new computer operating system to compete directly with the Windows platform!
Google’s own OS, the Chrome OS, was designed initially for low-cost netbooks. This will now offer its program code to developers across the globe and create another ‘open source’ competition for the software giant, Microsoft.
In Europe Microsoft to sell Windows without browser
Microsoft Corp. announced that the company will be making a separate version of Windows 7 computer operating system (OS) which will not include the company’s own Internet Explorer Web browser. The announcement came on Thursday and these computer OS will be on sale in Europe only.
This move from the software giant comes as the company tries to see off another antitrust tussle with the regulators of the European Union.
Earlier, EU in January has alleged that the software maker’s practice of selling Internet Explorer as a part its OS Windows violates their antitrust rules. Subsequently, EU asked Microsoft to separate the Web surfing software from its PC operating system.
No doubt Microsoft’s web browser is the most widely used one but amongst the web browsers gaining popularity today are Mozilla’s Firefox and Chrome from Google.
In the previous antitrust case, the software giant had paid a fine of $2.63 billions. That involved the package of its media player along with the OS. This time the company is avoiding to pay a hefty sum again amidst recession.
Apple to unveil next-generation iPhone software
Apple is all set to unveil its the next-generation iPhone operating system dubbed iPhone 3.0, holding a special media event for journalists at its Cupertino-based campus on March 17th, the company announced on Thursday.
Inarguably one of the best smartphone manufacturers, Apple stated that the even will focus on new software developers kit for its popular multi-purpose mobile devices.
The world famous maker of iPhones, iPods, prioudly claimed that more than 500 million applications for the Apple iPhone have been downloaded from the company’s online App Store since it opened in July of last year.
However, going by a study released in the month of February by Pinch Media, users tend to quickly lose interest in those applications.
The study revealed that less than five percent of the iPhone users were actively using an application a month after downloading it.
Pinch Media, a company which offers advice to developers of applications for the hot-selling smartphone, suggested that Apple iPhone users lose interest in free programs and applications a little faster than in the ones they pay for.
