New iPhone coming with LTE, NFC and double the RAM


The new iPhone is confirmed to have LTE support, a NFC chip and 1GB of RAM, according to a reliable source at BGR. The handset, which is scheduled for production later this summer with a view for an October release, is expected to be slightly taller than the current model, with a 4-inch screen. Where consumers will find more space is in the product’s thickness, which is to be under 8mm. A new metal backing, in both black and white, is expected to come to market.
Though final production doesn’t start until the end of the summer, apparently the coming model is in third-stage Engineering Verification Test, which is the precursor to final production unit. We don’t have much more information, but having NFC on the new iPhone is a big deal for the burgeoning mobile payments market.
We’ll soon see if all these rumours pan out.

Spark caches data in-memory and ensures low latency. Processing Only batch processing is supported Supports real-time processing through spark streaming. Installation Is bound to hadoop. Is not bound to Hadoop. ·  Spark is 100 times faster than Hadoop for big data processing as it stores the data in-memory, by placing it in Resilient Distributed Databases (RDD). ·  Spark is easier to program as it comes with an interactive mode. ·  It provides complete recovery using lineage graph whenever something goes wrong. high availability in Apache Spark ·  Implementing single node recovery with local file system ·  Using Sta...
microsoft surface microsoft surface price With its Windows business facing increasing competition thanks to a dizzying array of consumer devices like Apple's iPhone and tablet computers running on Google's Android operating system,  Microsoft  is placing its bets on its own hardware and software with the "Surface". How can the software giant distinguish its yet-to-be-released  tablet computer ? Some analysts believe price could be the difference. "The company did not disclose any pricing details, but said that pricing will be competitive with a comparable ARM tablet and Intel Ultrabook," Deutsche Bank Securities analysts said in a research note last week. "However, we believe that with its own device and with control on pricing, MSFT will be able to better use price as a competitive differentiator." Nonetheless, if a recent report proves to be accurate, Microsoft's tablet computer -- particularly its higher-end version -- prob...
Tech’s top innovators If you’re a techie, then The Crunchies Awards,is probably one of the highlights on your completely synched calendars across all PDAs (personal digital assistants). And if you’re not, then The Crunchies are probably something you should keep an eye out for, because if the winners and even those nominated haven’t made inroads into your life already, rest assured, they will pretty soon.

In fact, the comedian-writer started the night reading out (and he read out everything!) a couple of samples of humble bragging by celebr...
