MacBook Pro goes slim with quad-core this Spring


This summer we’re very likely going to see MacBook Air slimness on Apple’s line of heavier-duty MacBook Pro units, complete with Intel’s Ivy Bridge quad-core processors in-tact. This information is gleaned from no less than Intel themselves, with news coming through that April 29th will be the date that they’re ready to show the world what they’re made of in both the mobile and desktop world. CPU World lets us know that two separate and trustworthy sources have now confirmed that this date late in April will be the delivery time for for desktop portion of this equation, with quad-core models Core i7 and Core i7 Extreme families in the pipeline.
This news comes with the following part names attached inside the Core i7 family: desktop Core i7, Core i5-3570K, i5-3570T, i5-3550, i5-3550S, i5-3450 and i5-3450S. These systems on chips will be available in late April or early May and will find their way into devices such as MacBook Pros thereafter. New iMac machines have also been tipped for this timeframe, but no additional details are known on specifications of any kind.
We can expect that the MacBook Pro refresh will be delivered (if all goes according to the standard non-official plan of things), this spring right around the same time as the processors themselves are prepared for business with the rest of the computing world. This refresh will be the first in which Apple gets rid of the optical disk drive altogether, favoring instead digital data delivered via USB drive and their own Thunderbolt port.
Get pumped up about the thinness, because these units are more than likely going to be essentially Ivy Bridge-toting MacBook Airs with much better graphics, hard drives, and processing power. Can’t wait!

Telecom Lead India: Smartphone maker HTC has introduced new HTC One series of smartphones for the Indian market. The company has tied up with mobile major Bharti Airtel to introduce limited period offers on every purchase of HTC One X and HTC One V. 

Airtel mobile customers purchasing these all new devices till June 30, 2012 will be able to enjoy free download of 100 full songs, 500 MB data for three months and 200 minutes of mobile TV.

"One of the key objectives for the HTC One series, was to enable the user to remember their best moments in life easily, whether it be capturing a photo or listening to a song, so it was crucial for us to improve these emotional experiences with an amazing camera and authentic sound experience," said Faisal Siddiqui, country manager of HTC India.

The HTC One series runs on Android 4.0 (ICS) with HTC Sense 4, a new suite of camera and imaging features. HTC Sense 4 also includes broad enhancements to audio quality and simplifies how people listen to music on their phone.

The HTC One X is powered with a new Nvidia Tegra 3 Mobile Processor for clear graphics, faster applications and longer battery life. It includes a 1.5 GHz Super 4-PLUS-1 quad-core with an integrated fifth Battery Saver Core and a high-performance 12-Core Nvidia GPU.

The HTC One X handset is available in Polar White and Glamour Grey, while the HTC One V comes in the color of Jupiter Rock. The HTC One X and HTC One V will be available at an MRP of Rs. 42,999/- and Rs. 19,999/-respectively, while the MOP (Best Buy) will be Rs. 37,899/- and Rs. 18,299/-.

Recently, HTC reported unaudited consolidated revenue of NT$67.79 billion ($2.3 billion) for the first quarter of 2012, a drop of 34.92 percent from a year earlier. 

From January to February, the company reported consolidated revenue of NT$36.91 billion, a year-on-year drop of 45 percent, while its revenue in March managed to post 52.19 percent growth from the previous month to meet its former forecast.

Bharti Airtel is set to roll out broadband wireless access (BWA) services based on 4G technology in Kolkata on Tuesday.
Union Telecom Minister Kapil Sibal is expected to arrive here to launch the services. “We have requested Mr. Sibal to launch the services,” a senior executive of Bharti Airtel said.
With this launch, Bharti Airtel would become the first to launch this high-speed service. Airtel sources said that this would entail speed of 100 megabits per second when a subscriber is on the move and a far higher speed when at a fixed location.
The company, which had according to its website, a subscriber base of 22 million at the end of January 2012, had won the auctions for three other circles but Kolkata’s preparedness had made this launch possible, a company official said.
Bharti Airtel said that it has selected ZTE Corporation, a listed global provider of telecommunications equipment and network solutions to plan, design, supply and deploy its 4G network in Kolkata.
