Galaxy Note 8.0 Announced: The Just-Right Size for Samsung's Pen-Equipped Tablet?

Posted by Unknown Minggu, 24 Februari 2013 0 komentar

Samsung's Galaxy Note 8.0 has an 8-inch screen and a stylus. (Samsung)

Size

The 10.1-inch Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet too big? The 5.5-inch Galaxy Note 2 too small to be your tablet but too big to be your
phone?
The Galaxy Note 8.0 might be just right. Or at least that's what Samsung is hoping. The company has announced its new 8-inch, Android tablet today at Mobile World Congress, a large mobile tradeshow in Barcelona, and it hopes its new software features and the portable size will make it standout, especially against Apple's iPad Mini.
A Notebook Size
The tablet is slightly wider than the 7-inch tablets on the market, including Samsung's Galaxy Tab 7, and is meant to be easier to operate in one hand.
"We have seen through consumer research people like the one-handed experience," Shoneel Kolhatkar, Samsung's director of Product Planning, told ABC News. "The Note 10.1 is more of a lean back experience and this is really about the lean forward, you are actively engaged with your notepad and the content you are editing."
Samsung's first Android tablet introduced in 2010 -- the Galaxy Tab -- had a 7-inch display and the company has since made tablets with various different screen sizes. Apple introduced a smaller, 7.9-inch version of the iPad -- the iPad Mini -- in late 2012. Shoneel and other Samsung executives stressed to ABC News that it had smaller tablets long before Apple came out with the Mini.

Powered by a 1.6GHz quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM, the Galaxy Note 8.0 features a 1280 x 800-resolution WXGA screen and a 5-megapixel camera on the back and a 1.3-megapixel camera on the front. Samsung says it was designed to be like a personal notebook or diary and that it is the perfect size for you to take anywhere.

Improved S-Pen Software
But key to the hardware is Samsung's S-Pen, the same stylus or digital pen that it began shipping with its other Galaxy Note 10.1 and Galaxy Note 2 products. The pen, Samsung says, provides a natural mode of interaction for users who prefer to write, and has been successful for the company so far.
"The Note category was really really successful, frankly it took many of us by surprise," Kolhatkar said. "As consumers started using the Note devices, they used so many ways of personalizing notes and writing on their photographs. We want to bring the best size form factor into this category of device."
With the Galaxy Note 8.0 Samsung has enhanced the pen software experience, too. The Air View feature lets you hover the pen over specific Samsung apps so you can see previews of videos, emails or photos without actually launching the apps. The pen also now allows you to control the menu and back buttons on the device.
While Samsung is using Google's Android 4.2.1 (or Jelly Bean), it's also built some added multitasking features on top. The multi-window option allow you to put apps side by side. For instance, you can have a website or book on the left side of the screen and then take notes in the S Note application on the right. Other software features include Smart Stay, which will keep the screen on automatically when you are looking at it and a Reader's Mode, which alters the screen brightness for reading.

Smarter Remote
But while Samsung wants the Galaxy Note 8.0 to be your notebook, it also wants it to be your remote control. The tablet has an IR blaster and the company's new Smart Remote app, which allows the tablet to function as a universal remote control. A graphical, TV Guide-like interface allows you tap on images to change the channel. It also includes a new smart search, which lets you search for shows or movies across lots of different services.
The Note 8.0 will be out in the second quarter of 2013. Samsung is not detailing the exact pricing and availability in the U.S., but Kolhatkar did say that the Note would be the best "combination of size and price." Its current Galaxy Note 10.1 sells for $499 and its Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 for $199. As Kolhtkar said, "Samsung is always going to provide choice."

Microsoft hacked by same cyberattack as Apple and Facebook

Posted by Unknown Sabtu, 23 Februari 2013 0 komentar

Microsoft has revealed it is the latest high-profile internet company to have its computer system hacked.

Microsoft says it has become the latest major internet company to be targeted by hackers

The software giant said it experienced a "security intrusion"
similar to those suffered by social media site Facebook and technology company Apple earlier this month.

In a blog posted on its website, Microsoft insisted that there was no evidence of customer data being taken.

It said a small number of computers, including some of its Apple Mac computers – which are reputed to be targeted less by viruses compared to Windows computers.

Matt Thomlinson, general manager of Microsoft's trustworthy computing security team, said: "This type of cyberattack is no surprise to Microsoft and other companies that must grapple with determined and persistent adversaries."

Last week Apple announced it had been hit by malicious software, known as malware, which took advantage of a vulnerability in a Java program used as a plug in for web browsing programs.

Facebook said that the malware infected employee laptops even though they were running up to date antivirus software, and described the attack as "sophisticated"
Describing the attack on Microsoft, Mr Thomlinson said: "As reported by Facebook and Apple, Microsoft can confirm that we also recently experienced a similar security intrusion.
"During our investigation, we found a small number of computers, including some in our Mac business unit, that were infected by malicious software using techniques similar to those documented by other organisations.
"We have no evidence of customer data being affected and our investigation is ongoing."
Like Facebook, Microsoft says it is still investigating how malicious software was planted on what it said were a small number of its computers.
Online messaging service Twitter last month also revealed that hackers may have stolen information about 250,000 of its users. It said it was "not the work of amateurs".
The New York Times, Washington Post and Wall Street Journal have all accused China of attacking their computer systems

Facebook hackers attack Apple

Posted by Unknown 0 komentar

Apple computers were attacked by the same hackers who recently targeted Facebook, but no data appeared to have been stolen, the company said in an unprecedented admission of a widespread cyber-security breach.

Apple, which makes the iPhone, said it would release a software tool to protect customers against the malicious software used in the attacks.

The maker of iPhones, iPads, iPods, and Macintosh computers said it is working with law enforcement officials to hunt down the hackers, who appeared tied to a series of recent cyber attacks on US technology firms.

"The malware was employed in an attack against Apple and other companies, and was spread through a website for software developers," Apple said in an email response to an AFP inquiry.

"We identified a small number of systems within Apple that were infected and isolated them from our network."

The malicious software, or malware, took advantage of vulnerability in a Java program used as a "plug-in" for Web browsing programs.

A "small number" of computer systems at Apple were infected but they were isolated from the main network, according the Silicon Valley based company.

"There is no evidence that any data left Apple," Apple said. "We are working closely with law enforcement to find the source of the malware."
Apple took the added steps of releasing a Macintosh computer operating system update that disables Java software that hasn't been used for 35 days or longer and a tool for finding and removing the malware.
Word of hackers hitting Apple came just days after leading social network Facebook said it was "targeted in a sophisticated attack" last month, but that it found no evidence any user data were compromised.
Facebook said Friday that the malware came from an infected website of a mobile developer and that "we remediated all infected machines, informed law enforcement, and began a significant investigation that continues to this day".
It was unclear whether it was the same website blamed for the attack on Apple.
The attackers used a previously unseen exploit taking advantage of a flaw in Java software made by Oracle, which was alerted to the situation and released a patch on February 1, according to Facebook.
The hackers appeared to be targeting developers and technology firms based on the website they chose to booby-trap with malicious code.
"Facebook was not alone in this attack," the Northern California-based company said. "It is clear that others were attacked and infiltrated recently as well."
Early this month Twitter said it was hammered by a cyber attack similar to those that recently hit major Western news outlets, and that the passwords of about 250,000 users were stolen.
"This attack was not the work of amateurs, and we do not believe it was an isolated incident," Twitter information security director Bob Lord said in a blog post at the time.
Lord said there was an "uptick in large-scale security attacks aimed at US technology and media companies".

The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal recently said that they had been hacked, and pointed to attackers from China.
Brazen cyberattacks on US media and technology firms revived concerns over Chinese hackers, who analysts say are likely linked to the secretive Beijing government.
China's army controls hundreds if not thousands of virulent and cutting-edge hackers, according to a report Tuesday by a US Internet security firm that traced a host of cyberattacks to an anonymous building in Shanghai.
Mandiant said its hundreds of investigations showed that groups hacking into US newspapers, government agencies and companies "are based primarily in China and that the Chinese government is aware of them".
The report focused on one group, which it called "APT1" from the initials "Advanced Persistent Threat".
"We believe that APT1 is able to wage such a long-running and extensive cyber espionage campaign in large part because it receives direct government support," Mandiant said.
The group, it said, was believed to be a branch of the People's Liberation Army called Unit 61398, and digital signatures from its cyberattacks were traced back to the direct vicinity of a nondescript, 12-story building on the outskirts of Shanghai.
China's foreign ministry rejected "groundless accusations" of Chinese involvement in hacking and also said China was itself a major victim, with most overseas cyberattacks against it originating in the US.
The Pentagon declined to comment directly on the report but said Defense Secretary Leon Panetta voiced US dismay over digital threats in his visit to Beijing last year.

Facebook hacked in 'sophisticated' attack

Posted by Unknown 0 komentar

Facebook has revealed it has been targeted a "sophisticated attack" by hackers who exploited a previously unknown loophole in its computer system.

The internet company insisted that no personal information of users had been compromised by the hacking attack.

It said that malware had infected its computer systems after employees had visited the website of a developer of mobile applications that was
"compromised".

In a blog post, Facebook said it was not the only company to have been attacked in this way.

The California-based company said: "Last month, Facebook security discovered that our systems had been targeted in a sophisticated attack.

"Facebook was not alone in this attack. It is clear that others were attacked and infiltrated recently as well."

Facebook said that it took immediate action to repair all infected computers once the malware was discovered and added that it had informed law enforcement authorities.
It is the latest in a number of sophisticated hacking attacks on high-profile websites and companies.
Twitter reported earlier this month that 250,000 user details, including usernames, passwords and email addresses, were stolen by hackers. It said it was "not the work of amateurs".
The New York Times, Washington Post and Wall Street Journal have all accused China of attacking their computer systems.
Earlier this week a report by US intelligence community concluded that the country was being targeted by a massive cyber-espionage campaign.
The National Intelligence Estimate, a classified report compiled by the US intelligence services, identified energy, finance, information technology, aerospace and automotive companies as the most frequent targets of hacking campaigns that appear state sponsored, according to The Washington Post earlier this week.
Facebook said that the malware that attacked its own systems used a previously unseen loophole, taking advantage of a flaw in Java software made by Oracle, a mobile developer.
The company said the malware attacked its employee laptops despite running up-to-date antivirus software. It added that it was continuing to investigate the threat.
A statement on its website said: "Facebook, like every significant internet service, is frequently targeted by those who want to disrupt or access our data and infrastructure.
"Foremost, we have found no evidence that Facebook user data was compromised."
It was unknown whether the cyberattack on San Francisco-based Twitter was related to the Facebook breach.

Posted by Unknown 0 komentar

Hi guys, mTz here.

Temple Run has so far been one of my favorite games on any device. The game is so simple and yet so addictive. I was personally waiting for an update for this game forever.

And then I heard about Temple Run 2, but was really sad that it was released on iOS only. And no dates for the Google Play Store launch was announced. I got pretty upset. But then suddenly it got released on the Play Store. But it didn't work for My Galaxy Y, it worked on my Nexus 7 but not my Y. Which made me upset before I found this version that actually works on QVGA phones.

So there you go, download the APK from the link below and get your game going.

Post your highscore on our facebook page if you would like to do it - www.facebook.com/sgalaxyy/

Here's the link to the APK- http://adf.ly/IY3nl

ENJOY GUYS! mTz here.
