In the past months there have been numerous rumors about the Google’s own cellphone, or otherwise known as the Gphone. As time went by however, the concept around it became vaguer and the talks about the Gphone slowly turned in talks about a phone based on a Google mobile OS. Well, finally yesterday’s official announcement cleared all misunderstandings about the issue.

The simple facts are as follows. Google will not make a Gphone by themselves - the software company will stay a software one. Instead Google have developed a Linux-based open source mobile OS called Android. Now in order for any new OS to gain speed, it needs the right hardware. And since the OS will probably not be able to run on the existing hardware architecture for mobile phones, new hardware platform has to be developed. Building on that, naturally Google tried to involve some major hardware manufacturers on the project. And so the Open Handset Alliance was born.

The experimental Google boat called the Open Handset Alliance has made room for a total of 33 major players from the hardware and software industry (Nokia, Apple and Microsoft are not among them). So finally it’s clear - there will be no Gphone, instead there will be many Gphones by various manufacturers (such as HTC, Samsung, and LG). Those phones will all be based on the new Android OS but there’s no word (not even a whisper) what will their specifications or even form factors be. In fact HTC are the only manufacturer that presented a vague launch date for their future Android devices - no sooner than second half 2008.

So hardware-wise, we’re still nowhere near finding what the future Gphones will be like, but software-wise even more good news is coming. The Google Android OS will be totally open to every UNIX programmer out there that would like to have a go at it (but manufacturers can have a second word on that). The good has just got even better, as Google is planning on making beta SDK (Software Development Kit) publicly available within a week - on November 12.

Yesterday when i visited the Stuff 4 world site then I did notice some change. Actually I saw the page rank showing a rank and it was not 0 Page Rank. In fact I was happy to see that current page rank assigned to this site are

Directory PR - 1
Tiny URL PR - 2
Main website PR - 1

I am expecting a major change when google will be assigning the update for the pagerank next time.

There are couple of new things happening about which i will update you all.

On the tiny url generator i have also added a widget which is powered by google Gadgets. So i guess it gives you the authenticity of this widget. This widget code can be added to any web pages or blogs. This will help your users to get your sites url small and even can convert any url to small. This widget is also available by widgetbox.com

The long expected successor of Nokia N800 internet tablet - Nokia N810 made its first official appearance today. It was announced today by the Finnish company at the Web 2.0 Summit 2007 event in San Francisco, California.

Nokia N810 is sporting the same sparkling touchscreen 4.13″ display with 800 x 480 pixels resolution we saw in its predecessor. The most exiting upgrade over the former model is the added GPS receiver with preinstalled maps. According to the manufacturer it should be perfectly adequate for navigating your way around. The other great news is that Nokia N810 will have a full hardware QWERTY keyboard which will surely greatly facilitate text input. Unfortunately, the N810 retains the same VGA-only snapper we saw on N800 but this time it’s front-mounted.

Nokia N810 Internet tablet

The new internet tablet relies on Wi-Fi or a Bluetooth connection to a mobile phone to get internet access. Although it does allow its user to make internet calls as well as almost any other internet activity you can do from a personal computer it lack mobile phone functionality, meaning that you cannot carry out regular calls on it. This is the only reason we don’t add Nokia’s internet tablets to our specifications database, despite the abundance of request we receive in our mailbox.

Nokia N810 comes complete with the adequate 2GB of internal memory which can be expanded up to 10GB through the memory card slot. The device will start shipping as soon as mid November at an estimated retail price of USD 479 (excluding local taxes).

Says it plans to get serious about developing Mobile Firefox.

After a couple of experiences dipping a toe into the mobile market, Mozilla Corp. said it plans to get serious about developing a mobile browser.

Mozilla has recently hired two new developers to help work on the project and plans to release Mobile Firefox some time in the next year or two.

The iPhone, Apple Inc.’s popular new mobile phone, in part contributed to the renewed interest in mobile browsing at Mozilla. “The user demand for a full browsing experience on mobile devices is clear,” Mike Schroepfer, vice president of engineering at Mozilla Corp. wrote in his blog on Tuesday. “If you weren’t sure about this before, you should be after the launch of the iPhone.”

As Mozilla continues to develop Mozilla2, the second version of the platform on which Firefox is built, it will add mobile devices as a category. That means developers of Mozilla2, which is expected to be complete in early 2009, will keep mobile phones in mind as they build the new platform, Schroepfer wrote.

He didn’t get more specific on a release date for the mobile browser other than to say “not before 2008.” Schroepfer also said Mozilla hadn’t yet decided which mobile phones the browser would work on.

Depending on compatibility, Mozilla could face competition from companies such as Microsoft Corp. and Apple that include their own browsers in phones running their operating systems, as well as from third parties such as Opera Software ASA that have been fine-tuning their mobile browsers for years now.

The announcement comes after the release earlier this year of a new version of Minimo, a Mozilla-based mobile browser for Windows Mobile devices. A few months prior to the release, the lead developer of Minimo said he wouldn’t be spending much time on the project in the future. On Tuesday, Schroepfer said that there are no plans to further develop Minimo.

Mozilla also offers Joey, a project in development that lets users clip and save text, photos, videos and other content while using a PC and then access that content through a browser on a cell phone.

Mozilla is also involved with a group of companies including Arm Ltd. and MontaVista Software Inc. that is developing an open-source Linux-based platform for devices that are bigger than a cell phone but smaller than a laptop. Mozilla is developing a browser for the platform and has already built one for a similar device, the N800, from Nokia Corp.

The new Mozilla hires who will contribute to the mobile Firefox initiative are Christian Sejersen, who recently worked for Openwave Systems Inc., and Brad Lassey, who worked for France Telecom R&D, which has been very active in mobile Linux initiatives.
