The Toshiba K01 Puts a QWERTY on the TG02

Posted in Communications by editor

The Japanese consumer electronic giant Toshiba hasn’t created many waves lately after its introduction of the ill-fated HD DVD home video format to compete with Sony’s Blu-Ray in 2007 and then pulling the plug a year later.

It has entered the highly competitive mobile phone industry at about the same time with a set of rather boring products until it flexed its muscles to finally make its presence felt with the TG01 last June. It was the world’s first Snapdragon smartphone on a touchscreen monoblock that also sported one of the largest displays on a smartphone at 4.

1 inches. It took a 2010 Mobile World Congress to confirm its successor in the TG02 with a twin variant sporting a full-QWERTY slider form in the Toshiba K01.

Features Up Close

The K01 gets a full QWERTY keyboard half shell that effectively adds 3 mm to the thickness of its TG02 twin. Its main strength lies in the AMOLED display technology that edges out the TG02. Both have gorgeous 4.1-inch capacitive touchscreens with WideVGA resolution, 64k colors and gravity accelerometer sensors for auto rotate viewing and shake control.

OLED and AMOLED displays require no backlighting that regular LCD screens have and thus get blacker blacks and eat less energy. That should give the K02 a brighter screen and talk times longer than the 5 hours that TG02/01 has for the same 1,000 mAh battery. It’s a curiosity though that Toshiba prefers to be silent on this area during the MWC event. Other that that, the K01 gets the same TG02 features.

The K01 is your basic 3G on the dual band dual band UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA and a quad band GSM/GPRS/EDGE on 2G.

It comes with WiFi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR with A2DP and USB2.0. There’s SatNav functionality from its built-in GPS receiver for A-GPS and QuickGPS.
The same 1 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon engine used in the TG02/TG01 powers the K01 with the same 512 MB ROM and 256 MB RAM. The usual microSD expandability for up to 32 GB is likewise supported.
You get the same 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera with geo tagging the same 30fpx VGA vide recording. There’s also a front secondary VGA camera to support 3G video calls.

Windows Phone 7 to the Rescue

Out of the box, the Toshiba K01 will be configured with the lackluster Windows Mobile 6.5.3 which Toshiba claims can be upgraded to the more capable Windows Phone 7 Series out soon. Now just how soon that would be is anybody’s guess.

Announced in 2008 and already delayed on its promised 2009 release, the new WinPho7 was demoed at the same MWC and it looks like it got the more heightened anticipation Microsoft had wanted. Finally, this is the Windows platform that can challenge the Android.

And the K02 is sure to benefit from upgrading to one. Its capacitive touchscreen has no native support from its current Windows Mobile OS and the WinPho7 has. Not all current Windows smartphones can be upgraded as only those meeting the WinPho7 minimum requirements presumably can and Toshiba claims the K01 is one of them.

Arriving at the Destination in Time With GPS Navigations

Posted in Communications by editor

GPS navigation is the device which can help users to position the accurate present location and calculate the itinerary based on the given destination, and then leads the users to the destination by the map showing and audio prompt. Now GPS navigations are widely applied in the traffic, tourism, and military industries and so on. Generally, we talk about the car GPS systems.

The operation of the GPS navigations relies on the GPS which is short for the Global Positioning System. The GPS system is comprised of the satellite in space, surface-monitoring and subscribers’ access.

The GPS system is designed for the military purpose at first. But now it’s not limited in the military field, but expanded to the car navigation, atmosphere watch, geodetic survey, sea rescue and manned spacecraft detection.

In addition, the car navigation system is required for the operation of the GPS navigation. The GPS navigation can only receive the data from the GPS satellite and calculate the information of the location, direction, running speed and time of users, but is not capable to calculate the route.

In order to realize the route navigation, it requires the car navigation system including the hardware equipment, electronic map and navigation software.

In conclusion, a whole GPS navigation is comprised of the chip, antenna, processor, RAM, screen, speaker, key-press, expandable socket and map navigation software. The more the satellite the GPS navigation receive, the strong the signal getting and the steadier navigation is developed.

The basic functions of the GPS system are as follows:

The map search.

You can search the location of your destination on the operation terminal. You can record and save the location information of your destination. You can also share the information with others. It can help you check the information about the gas station, hotel and cash machine around you or around other objects.

The route planning. The GPS system will automatically plan a route according to your given starting point and destination. You can settle some approach points when you plan the route. Also you can set up to avoid the high speed.

The audio navigation. The driver will be informed the driving information by the means of voice beforehand. Just like a guide tell you how to drive to your destination. It’s the most important function that you can arrive at the destination without observing the operation terminal.

The image navigation. The map will be displayed on the operation terminal. And the present location of the car, the speed, the distance to the destination, the planned prompt route and the driving information can also be displayed.

Replanning the route. If you failed to drive as the planned route or go wrong, the GPS system can replan a new route to your destination for you.

Due to the convenience and the applicability, it is widely accepted and followed by the consumers since the GPS navigation is applied in the car field. With the large needs of the GPS navigations on the market, the GPS navigations are developed on the super highway.
