Forget your iPhones, Blackberries or N95’s. Cellphones from China are going to be the leading innovators in the mobile phone industry for 2008.

According to market research company, Global Sources, China’s total production of mobile phones in 2007 was about 450 million units, 45 percent of the total global output.

And with new, less stringent, registration regulations for new mobile phone companies, market analysts expect the number of manufacturers of wholesale mobiles in China to skyrocket in 2008.

Bigger-name players like ZTE Lenovo and Huawei Technologies beginning to build brand name overseas face competitors from new players in market.

According to Chinavasion PR manager, Rose Li, growth in this market has been immense with dozens of companies opening up in the last few months alone.

“The growth in this industry in China is really a double-edged sword because cellphones in China can’t compete on price like they used to so have to find other ways to differentiate themselves from competitors,” said Rose Li.

The higher cost of raw materials and oil, and rampant inflation in China has prevented companies from competing with price, according to Global sources, forcing wholesale mobile phone makers to focus on features.

At the pace technology is moving, it can get pretty scary at times, especially when you know scientists are now working on a machine that is capable of figuring out a human’s intention before it results in action. Apparently our brain’s prefrontal cortex region is activated whenever we are about to make a decision. All I know about the prefrontal cortex region, I learnt from Brain Age on my DS. A successful implementation will definitely see this device being made available in courtrooms and interrogation chambers. Will there be a new set of laws drafted to prosecute a person who has the intention of commiting a crime but does not follow through? Interesting times are definitely lined up ahead of us.

In the future, it could get wrapped around a lamppost or a person’s wrist, even worn as clothing. Perhaps it can be put up like wallpaper .”
All the walls in your appartement can be a display and show whatever you feel right in the moment. Is it a forest or the sea. With all the climate change going around (and today is “Live Earth“) at least at home you’ll see a perfect nature…

But if you’ll have to pay this technology and your hightech wallpaper with advertising it may become hard…

Making presentations in the corporate world is definitely one of the staple tasks in any office, and this is where the USB wireless comes in handy. Not only does it allow you to scroll through your presentations as you like, it also comes with a laser button that helps keep the focus of the audience on one particular segment of the slide at the moment.The USB Wireless Presenter retails for $22 each.

Husqvarna’s plain old battery-powered Automowers have been available in the US for some time now, but it looks like the company’s solar-powered hybrid model is now finally making the trip across the pond as well. From the looks of it, the model is the same one we caught sight of back in March, with the 22-pound mower promising to handle lawns up to half an acre in size and not emit a single emission whilst it does its business. As with the regular models, it’ll also return to its base to speed up the charging process when it gets low on juice. Unfortunately, there’s no word on a price or release date just yet, though we wouldn’t expect it to sell for too much less (if any) than the £2,000 (or just over $3,000) it sold for in the UK. Husqvarna will apparently have more to say about that at the Green Industry and Equipment Expo that’s now getting underway in Louisville, Kentucky.

The coolest looking electric scooter which is seen yet before is so cool that it featured a lot on all the technology blogs over the last month. Based solely on looks and specifications, the IKOO looks like a winner, with a “surgical stainless steel” frame and disk brakes. We haven’t ridden the IKOO which the manufacturers claim is zippy with its powerful 600W EQuake S6 electric motor, a range of 18 miles and a top speed of 18 mph. The production company also claim that it provides optimal balance between speed and range though it’s our opinion that if you’re going for a scooter in the 400-600W range, having a pedal option so you can assist the motor is a massive boon to the range and usability of the machine.

As you know, in all  electronic machines the parts that are very nessaive components and that play vitial rorle for its complete useful work are electronic circuits. Without different electronics circuits, the computer or any other electronic machine is not complete.

In initial stage of the computer, obsolete electronic parts had been used which were replaced by new creations, inventions and new researches and further more effective and more useful computers. In a nutshell the obsolete electronic parts are the cause of creation and invention of new electronics parts and components including integrated circuits.

Electronic circuit have got different object and different purposes for which an electronic circuit would be prepaird by an enginier for a specific object. Every electronic circuit has its one or more objects. It’s a long topic, and I think I can’t cover the whole story in a single post, just sharing a snap of latest electronic circuit, i.e. integrated circuits, which has the world in a small pack. Here it is:

Check out the concept shoe as shown above. It features an integrated CD-ROM, some speakers, tweeters, and a volume control knob to boot (no pun intended). Of course, it might be a little behind the times as most portable MP3 players these days use either a hard drive or flash memory and not CD-ROMs.

The beautifully designed Audi r8 gives a high speed performance and this baby has an optional bang features.When it comes about its speed this hard Rock car is the meanest of all.Now it is available in in convertible features.

As the days are passing every thing is getting easy and fast and man can reach at any place without any Hurdle.The transportation system is getting moderated and fast. The concept about Future cars is also on the line .There is work going on this concept, engineers are building new models and frames of cars which are futuristic and never seen before.There are some models of cars below which are to be build for future.
