Nokia World 2011: What You Need To Know About The Nokia Lumia 800 and Lumia 710

Nokia officially unveiled on Wednesday what company CEO Stephen Elop called "the first real Windows Phone" - the Nokia Lumia 800 and its lower-end cousin, Lumia 710. The Nokia 800's design is very similar (some might say a carbon copy) to the critically-acclaimed MeeGo-based Nokia N9. The N9 was also mourned by reviewers since it was Nokia's first and last MeeGo phone.Nokia said the Lumia 800 will start shipping in Europe in November for about US$580 (Indian Rupees 29,000). The Nokia Lumia 710 will cost about US$375 (INR 18,750) and will first ship to Hong Kong, India, Russia, Singapore and Taiwan before the end of this year.

The Best Android Tablet Alternatives to the iPad 2

Apple revolutionized the technology industry with the release of the original iPad, but the tablet industry has come a long way since then; thanks to the birth of the Android tablet. Since the release of the original iPad, modern consumers have been looking for worthy alternatives that match the collective features and price of Apple’s infamous iOS tablet. But consumers aren’t the only ones looking for alternatives to the iPad. In fact, finding a worthy match is such an obsession for the tech world that the phrases “iPad killer” and “iPad competitor” have been coined, and used quite often. The obvious truth of such statements is that there has yet to be a product that encapsulates the public attention and provides what Apple’s products...

There’s an unsubstantiated rumor making the rounds that law enforcement asked Google to remove YouTube videos of police brutality captured during Occupy Oakland protests.While Google recently acknowledges law enforcement has made such requests in the past, the allegation that one such request was made to remove footage of the Occupy Oakland protests seems to be based on a misinterpretation of a transparency report the search giant released Wednesday.In the report, Google details requests it receives from governments to remove content and reveal information about users. It releases such reports every six months.This time around, the “observations” section for the U.S. states:“We received a request from...

Reopen Recently Closed Tabs in Safari for iPad

With iOS 5, Apple finally brought tabbed browsing to Safari, but they did even more than that: with it, they added a shortcut to reopen tabs you've accidentally closed.Just like Ctrl+Shift+T on the desktop (or Cmd+Shift+T on Macs), this little shortcut is a godsend when you accidentally close a tab—which happens a lot when, like me, you're all thumbs on a touchscreen. In Safari for iOS 5, just press and hold on the "new tab" plus sign on the right, and you'll see a menu of your recently closed tabs. Nifty!I tested this in some of my alternative browsers, like 360 and Perfect, and it didn't work, so it looks like this is a Safari-only feature for now. Hopefully other browsers will add this small but helpful feature so...
