  16. Mobile Phone Timeline Google Nexus One Manufacturer HTC (Designed and branded by Google) Type Slate smartphone Release date January 5, 2010 Introductory price $529 unlocked$179 with 2 year contract[1] Operating system Android 2.1 (Eclair) CPU 1 GHz Qualcomm QSD 8250 Snapdragon ARM Storage capacity Flash memory: 512 MBmicroSD (Class 2) slot: 4 GB included, expandable up to 32 GB

  17. Glossary of terms • Difference between 1G and 2G, is that the radio signals that 1G networks use are analog, while 2G networks are digital. • Although both systems use digital signaling to connect the radio towers (which listen to the handsets) to the rest of the telephone system, the voice itself during a call is encoded to digital signals in 2G whereas 1G is only modulated to higher frequency, typically 150 MHz and up.

  18. Glossary of terms • 3G - Services include wide-area wireless voice telephone, video calls, and wireless data, all in a mobile environment. Compared to 2G and 2.5G services, 3G allows simultaneous use of speech and data services and higher data rates (up to 14.0 Mbit/s on the downlink and 5.8 Mbit/s on the uplink with HSPA+). Thus, 3G networks enable network operators to offer users a wider range of more advanced services while achieving greater network capacity through improved spectral efficiency. Back

  19. Glossary of terms • MP3 - MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3, more commonly referred to as MP3, is a method of data compression. It is a common audio format for consumer audio storage, for the transfer and playback of music on digital audio players. back

  20. Glossary of terms • Touch Stone charger – charging the Palm Pre using Touchstone wireless inductance charging system ($69.99). • The Touchstone charger utilizes magnetic inductance, or electric current produced through a loop of wire in the presence of a magnetic field, to charge its internal battery wirelessly. back

  21. Glossary of terms • Windows mobile - Windows Mobile is a compact mobile operating system developed by Microsoft, and designed for use in smartphones and mobile devices. • It is the 3rd most popular smartphone operating system for business use (after BlackBerry and iPhone). back

  22. Glossary of terms • smartphone is a mobile phone offering advanced capabilities, often with PC-like functionality (PC-mobile handset convergence). There is no industry standard definition of a smartphone. For some, a smartphone is a phone that runs complete operating system software providing a standardized interface and platform for application developers.For others, a smartphone is simply a phone with advanced features like e-mail, Internet and e-book reader capabilities, and/or a built-in full keyboard or external USB keyboard and VGA connector. back
