Microsoft Office may face one dead end.

Paperless office has been a long talk since my childhood, but it never became true. Today, with the tablet computer, it has become closer to us than before. Kreg Snit, one software engineer who has been developing tons of iPad Conversion software tools(www.ipadconvertersoft.com), wants to share his thoughts about paperless office here.

With the rise of cloud computing and tablet PCs, the era of paper-based office may end soon, so is the Microsoft Office.

With the rise of Tablet PC, Microsoft Office users suddenly found they no longer need Microsoft Office. They only need to e-mail application, Notepad, and Dropbox. You can open an Office document on any one device, and use any tablet computer to editing text. In one word, Office has been marginalized.

The development of office automation is a slow and irresistible change. However, the rise of Tablet PC will help us to leave printer. I think that once the electronic signature to replace the hand-signatures, the real turning point will come. So Officie will leave and here comes a new cloud computing document processing era.

Update jump and run “Terra Noctis” in the video rated good, reduced and largely unknown

The 45 MB large Bulkypix title “Terra Noctis” (AppStore Link) has completed his leap into Apple’s software department store shortly before Christmas, has gone down in the hustle and bustle of the holidays but somewhat.

Both the German and the American AppStore can the platformer appreciate so far best reviews, runs as a universal app on iPhone and iPad, and combines a friendly world of 256 colors with a still fair retail price of 2.39€. “Terra Noctis” runs on the iPad games station iCade (here in the news) and presents itself in following his trailer as well as a brief gameplay demo. Fans of the genre should see at least the videos. In the AppStore so far still in vain looking negative voices to the game.

Seven years later the black Samsung version

Who in the past few months the patent disputes between Samsung and Apple, two-sided accusations of piracy and, more generally, the latently smouldering dispute of the two technology giants has pursued must today the “Galaxy tab” watch connection kit. We slowly drift off in the direction of satire.

Apple unveiled for the first time mid 2005 his dock-to-USB adapter, and brought the dongle for iPod owners on the market at the time (here in the ifun.de test). In April 2010, Cupertino, California introduced the “iPad camera connection kit” with Sockets for USB devices and SD cards. Both Samsung and Apple require almost 30€ for their accessories.

Microsoft announces expansion of Windows phone marketplace

Microsoft expands the marketplace for Windows phone on six other regions in the near future.

Developers and developers can provide now also Argentina, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Peru and the Philippines 7 apps with their Windows phone. In three of the six new regions, China, Indonesia and Malaysia, it will be necessary due to local regulations and laws to adapt the apps to additional requirements. Must this not about no people in sexualized poses or Bared pictured and gambling may be not simulated, as well as references to religion and alcohol should be avoided.

To allow developers a head start in the certification of apps, Microsoft has already opened the process to submit apps before the actual launch of marketplace for the end users and users in regions.
Apart from that Microsoft is trying to introduce improvements and bugfixes for the community continuously to facilitate reporting and payment operations.
Windows phone 7 (we reported) reached the limit of 50’000 apps, just two months after the 40′ 000 mark was reached and this proves a certain growth constant of marketplace. Also, Microsoft seems close to LTE-enabled devices in the Windows phone marketing strategy of Nokia seem portfolio to include and also the “rolling thunder” for a good year 2012 Windows phone. Codenamed “Rolling Thunder”, the Finnish company Nokia, which so far had played no major role in the US market, now at lightning speed to conquer these attempts.
What impact have the extension to another six regions, as well as the mentioned strategies actually on the development of marketplace, remains to be seen of course.

We will certainly also

keep.

Apple obtained US import ban on Android powered devices from HTC

After the defeat of the Taiwanese giant HTC against IPCom in Germany, which should lead to an import ban on all HTC products, a decision of the International Trade Commission (ITC) dealt the next blow the Smartphone manufacturer in the United States now: after a transitional period until 19 April 2012, almost all HTC devices with Android operating system may no longer be imported into the United States.Excluded from this are devices intended for warranty Exchange, they may be imported until 19 December 2013, and the sale already in the United States of berfindlicher devices.

In response, HTC announced that it is the catalyst for the ban only to a small part of the “UI experience” go and that this part would soon removed from HTC smartphones. After such changes prior to an update by Google and the providers would have to be approved, it may be quite questionable whether HTC is here in time able to solve the problem.

Apple stated only for the umpteenth time, that they would welcome competition, the competitor but should develop their own technology instead of copying those apples.

A review of 2011 a excites Apple year

Apple: Gesichtserkennung für persönliche Profile?Last year’s very good happening as regards smartphones, tablets, etc – especially with regard to Apple. Here again the most important events at a glance.

Earlier this year Apple introduced as a new distribution channel the the Mac app store which triggered a major debate and does not not affect the competition. In the meantime he is iTunes but already as well of course as the or of the iOS-app store – what does not mean that he now without contradiction is accepted by all. A large part of the receiving uses it now, and Apple has opened only door also some developers with the store.

Also at the beginning of the year that was IOS 2. Apple disappointed many users though so that it had “only” a new design, a new processor and a few other nice gimmicks, the long speculated higher resolution and nothing made innovations such as new ports to look. Still, Apple retained in the point of view at least right that the year 2011 would the iPad 2 s. Because let’s be honest times, is there any tablet that has outdone the iPad this year? The inclined user would respond the Samsung Galaxy tab, perhaps hastily – and in some respects, he is certainly right. But times quite apart from that which was banned in this country – Yes, Yes, the old dispute between Apple and Samsung – with the success of iPads can not measure is still there.

You should not forget the new big cat: published Apple OS X 10.7 Lion in the summer and has now reached with the 8 big cat at the peak of the previous operating system development for the Mac. The new operating system is “controversial” as well as the Mac app store, was the focus this time on iOS-like innovations, what was a thorn in the side of many users. However, not only in this respect, the operating system represents a high point as well as a turning point: after Apple “has used up all crucial big cats”, it remains to be seen interesting, what will – bring the next system both by name and content. More than once has been speculated that Apple probably Ios_base::OpenMode and Mac OS entirely merge X what would of course also the devices change or merge. But we appreciate once the lion – Apple will make something decent out of the new system.

Not not mention should remain the iPhone 4s, which probably should have prepared a little déjà vu many users: the changes were relatively small, and so it is also no wonder that it has called Apple new iPhone not just iPhone 5.

The new iPhone came by the way hand in hand with iOS 5, which has revised a few long-overdue things in the Smartphone operating system, but all in all was no sensation – cannot be compared with the change of mood in Mac OS X.

And Yes, then there was still the “big” update for Final Cut Pro X:Apple had the old Final Cut Studio more or less behind it and the whole program developed instead new. Since this just many new features for the time being are missing the new Final Cut Pro X is an incomplete replacement; also Apple’s decision to sell it on the Mac app store has not any favor.

Last but not least we recall Steve Jobs’ death once again remembered – a sad occasion. He has always led Apple and it was with body and soul here – we hope that his ideas Apple will do long.

Now remains only to wait what 2012 will bring. It is be considered secured that the beginning of a new iPad awaits us – and Apple is also not tired that be iPhone and iPod series update. Still, with which innovations will Apple defend its place as one of the leading smartphone, computer and iPod maker this year?
