The Motorola Cliq will cost $200 with a two-year contract, T-Mobile said. Buyers who aren't already T-Mobile customers will have to wait until Nov. 2. The Cliq is the first product to come out of a turnaround effort at Motorola Inc., whose cell phone division has been struggling since the Razr fell out of favor. Motorola is now focusing on making "smart" phones using Google Inc.'s Android software to compete with Apple Inc.'s iPhone. T-Mobile already sells two Android smart phones made by HTC Corp. Sprint Nextel Corp. is releasing one, also made by HTC, on Oct. 11. The Cliq comes with a touch screen and a standard "Qwerty" keyboard that slides out from its side. Motorola has added a layer of software on top of Google's, to let users aggregate contact information from various social networks and e- mail accounts.

AdMob Mobile Metrics Report February 2010 New and Noteworthy For this month's report, we separate the traffic in our network into three categories – smartphones, feature phones, and mobile Internet devices – to examine the growth rates of each over the past year and look at the traffic share of smartphone operating systems and manufacturers of feature phones. * In February 2010, smartphones accounted for 48% of AdMob’s worldwide traffic, up from 35% in February 2009. The strong growth of iPhone and Android traffic, fueled by heavy application usage, was primarily responsible for the increase. In absolute terms, smartphone traffic increased 193% over the last year. * Feature phones declined from 58% to 35% of AdMob's total traffic as users began switching to smartphones. Although the share of traffic from feature phones as a category declined, in absolute terms traffic grew 31% year-over-year. * The mobile Internet devices category experienced the strongest growth of the three, increasing to account for 17% of traffic in AdMob’s network in February 2010. The iPod touch is responsible for 93% of this traffic; other devices include the Sony PSP and Nintendo DSi.

    February 5, 2010 Electronic Filing Marlene Dortch, Secretary Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, SW 12th Street Lobby, TW-A325 Washington, D.C. 20554 Re: Ex Parte Letter; GN Docket No. 09-191; WC Docket No. 07-52 Dear Ms. Dortch: CTIA – The Wireless Association® (“CTIA”) recently filed comments in the Commission’s proceeding on “Preserving the Open Internet” detailing the policy and economic reasons why Internet neutrality rules are inappropriate for the competitive, innovative and consumer-focused wireless broadband market. CTIA argued that the Commission should not develop and apply potentially damaging net neutrality rules that are based on a fear of speculative, not actual, harms. This filing identifies why developing and applying any such rules to the competitive wireless industry based on speculation is likely to be significantly off mark, and dangerous. In the following pages, CTIA analyzes the speculative harm that was detailed by one notable critic of the wireless industry, Professor Tim Wu of Columbia University, and concludes that the dark vision of the wireless future envisioned by Professor Wu was startlingly inaccurate and has never come to pass. In his February 2007 working paper for the New America Foundation, Professor Wu detailed a parade of harms that would befall wireless consumers absent a litany of FCC regulations. Contrary to the professor's view of how the ecosystem would evolve, in the absence of regulation, every element of the wireless ecosystem has expanded. Today, the fact that there are over

  • Preliminary Validation Study of Consumer-Level Activity Monitors and Mobile Applications for Step Counting Under Free Living Conditions
    ORIGINAL ARTICLE PRELIMINARY VALIDATION STUDY OF CONSUMER- LEVEL ACTIVITY MONITORS AND MOBILE APPLICATIONS FOR STEP COUNTING UNDER FREE LIVING CONDITIONS Manolis Adamakis, MSc, PhD candidate Faculty of Physical Education and Sport Science, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Athens, Greece Corresponding Author: [email protected] Background: The last decade’s technological advances have spurred a continuously increasing interest in objective monitoring of physical activity with the use of wearable devices. Even though an increased accuracy is important in some lines of research, a balance between precision, feasibility and low-cost monitoring technologies is clearly needed. Aims: The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy for step counting between one spring- levered pedometer, two piezo-electric pedometers and two free of charge pedometer applications for Android smartphones, under free-living conditions. Methods: Eleven healthy adults, ranging in BMI from 20.20 to 24.77 kg*m2, volunteered to participate in the study. They wore the selected criterion pedometer Yamax SW-200 (SW), which is considered the ‘‘gold standard’’, the Garmin Vivofit (GV), Medisana ViFit (MV), Accupedo application (AC) and Pedometer 2.0 application (PD), for a 24-h period, under free-living settings. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: All devices and applications demonstrated strong correlations with the SW reference pedometer (IC 0.86 Á 0.94), but often large mean differences Significant differences were observed among the five pedometers (F 5.21, p 0.01). Only the PD counted almost similar steps as the SW (F 0.57, p 0.47), even though it had high Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE).
