Are you tired of your short laptop battery life with only a few hours? Would you like the charge of your mobile phone to last a couple of months? Well, the answer to your “prayers” might be the nuclear batteries, which are been developed at the University of Missouri. They are designed especially for providing a lasting source of energy. And some people think these batteries could replace the current ones, including those used by the electrical cars. According to the creators, a nuclear battery has a very enormous capacity to generate electricity when compared to a regular one.
The batteries have always been the Achilles’ heel of the mobile devices. Usually, the designers of electronic devices for mass consumption (like laptops or media players) use small displays or screens that are not very bright in order to save the scarce energy resources that are provided from the regular batteries. But the new nuclear battery would bring a solution based on a liquid semiconductor (rather than a solid semiconductor) that will produce a much longer lifetime for the battery. The reason is the solid semiconductors are attacked constantly by some radioactive elements used by other types of batteries, while the liquid semiconductor is quite resistant to these attacks. Although the term “nuclear” can be a little perturbing, the fact is that these batteries are not very different from those batteries used in, for example, medical pacemakers.
The new radioisotope battery has the size of a penny and provides much more power than the traditional ones because, according to the researches, its capacity is very superior. Jae Kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at the University of Missouri, said that the radioisotope battery “can provide power density that is six orders of magnitude higher than chemical batteries”. That is to say, it provides no less than a million times more charge than any “normal” battery.
Kwon and his research team have spent enough time working to solve many problems that they have encountered when developing this type of battery. One important thing is the batteries need to be small and thin in order to be practical and useful; this way, they could be used to power watches and small electronic devices. As mentioned before, the prototype (which you can see in the picture below) has the size and thickness of a penny, but the researchers think they can achieve a thinner battery. In order to do this, Kwon has required the collaboration of another professor: J. David Robertson (chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor). Together, they hope to maximize the power of the nuclear batteries as well as reduce the size and test other materials to make additional improvements. Kwon thinks that the final battery, which would be used in commercial gadgets, could be thinner than a human hair. For the moment, the research team have required a provisional patent in order to protect the exclusive right to use this invention.

This handset, known as GZT 650 resembles Nokia Aeon very much and its front side is divided into 2 segments, just like on the famous Nokia concept. The two segments are separated by a metallic stripe and the upper side of the display is transparent
The device has two touch-sensitive screens, the smaller one playing the role of a keypad or contextual menu buttons.
But its a Chinese clone of a Nokia device that doesnt even exist. The model goes for $111, with shipping included and its specs list is available below. Said clone phone supports GSM (850/900/1800/1900 MHz)
Microsoft introduced new software for mobile phones on Tuesday, promising a range of devices to compete with Apple Inc's iPhone and Research in Motion's BlackBerry.
The world's largest software company, in partnership with phone makers and phone companies such as Samsung Electronics, AT&T Inc and Vodafone said more than 30 new devices with the new Windows Mobile 6.5 software would be on the market in more than 20 countries by the end of the year.
The new phones can play music, open Word and Excel documents, and be synchronized over the Internet. But some analysts worry that the new software is not enough of a leap to keep up with rivals.
The market for phones is set to treble or quadruple in the next few years, and Microsoft is ready to challenge other phone makers for market share.
Before you get excited, the Google G0 isn't a real Android phone. It's not coming out anytime soon and heck, it'll probably never be built. But boy is it one sexy device.
Android phones aren't exactly abundant in the market just yet in terms of types and models, but there is always room for one more concept. This time round Taiwanese designer Tryi Yeh has come up with the G0 Android-powered slider that comes with an integrated camera, multi-function buttons alongside an overall sexy look.
It has some pretty interesting features. Though it's billed as a slider-type device, the slide function only reveals a camera on one end and four customizable multi-functional buttons on the face--a pretty neat idea. Also drool worthy: the end-to-end touchscreen.
The G0 is an Android phone that comes with a touchscreen and a slide-out camera. There’s no slide-out QWERTY keyboard but there’s a camera instead accompanied by four customizable keys. The G0 also comes with an interesting inductive charger and a media hookup.
Google Sky Map turns your Android-powered mobile phone into a window on the night sky. Point your phone and you will see a map of the brightest stars, constellations, and planets in that part of the sky.
Anyone with a mobile phone running Google's Android operating system should never be in the dark again about what they're looking at in the sky. A new program called Sky Map uses not only GPS signals to tell users what stars and planets are visible in the sky at their location, but actually shows what celestial objects the phone is pointed at.
Sky Map uses the phone's magnetometer as a compass and its accelerometer as a plumb line to determine which way is down. That tells you which way the phone is pointed, and GPS signals and the phone's clock tell you what's in the sky at that time - a setup used by some existing handheld devices. Sky Map uses layers similar to those of Google Earth. Tap the screen to bring up the layers and other on-screen controls. A menu to the left displays the layers for stars, constellations, Messier objects, planets, grid lines, and the horizon line, and you can toggle any or all of them on or off. There are also zoom controls and an option to switch between automatic and manual navigation modes. Auto navigation (the app's default mode) works with your phone's sensors to show you a map of the sky based on the angle and direction at which you're holding your phone. In manual mode, you scroll through the map of the sky from your location using your finger on the touch screen.
To find a specific star or constellation type its name into Sky Map's search bar and a circle with an arrow pointing toward your desired target appears on the screen. The search bar comes preloaded with the planets you can look for by picking them from the drop-down list. As you point your phone in the direction of the arrow, the circle plays a game of hot-and-cold. The closer you move your phone toward the target, the redder the circle gets, and the farther you move away from it, the bluer it gets. Once you've zeroed in on the target, the circle turns orange and you see yellow crosshairs over your target.
It sounds straightforward enough, but aiming the phone correctly isn't easy. The arrow sometimes acts wonky and flips and turns seemingly at random. Often I ended up relying more on the changes in the color of the circle than on the arrow to locate objects. This works, but it can be tricky. The app also seems to perform differently in different locations, depending maybe on the strength of the GPS signal. At PCMag.com's offices, I had a hard time navigating the map and finding the targets I searched for. But Sky Map worked fine in other areas of Manhattan and around my apartment in Brooklyn.
While everything above the horizon line (if you have that layer turned on) that's shown on your touch screen should, ideally, be visible in the actual sky, light pollution, buildings, landscape, and clouds may block your view of what's mapped on your G1. If you run into problems with the app, or your sky map seems inaccurate, the About section, which you can get to from the menu options, provides a few troubleshooting tips to get you on track. For instance, to calibrate your compass, the directions recommend holding the phone and rotating your wrist in a figure-eight pattern.
Sky Map is no Google Earth. It doesn't yet have nearly the same great wealth of features and information. Also, navigating the sky with your phone can be a challenge, and requires some getting used to. Even so, this is a very cool app, one that can turn anyone with a little bit of heavenly curiosity into a budding astronomer in no time.

Ever since its release last June, the iPhone has inspired lust in consumers and envy in competitors. But at least for now, business users would be smart to ignore the one-million-sold hype: Apple (Charts, Fortune 500)'s refusal to accommodate third party applications and AT&T (Charts, Fortune 500)'s sluggish EDGE network keep this gadget strictly in the realm of fun.
But the iPhone has well and truly shaken up the wireless communication market, and that's good news for small business owners. Suddenly every handset maker, cell phone operator and software company is tripping all over itself to offer iPhone-like integrated messaging, improved design and better productivity. "It used to be that mobile business tools were pricey and required lots of hand holding and integration," says Mike Willsey, director of the enterprise strategic marketing segment at Verizon (Charts, Fortune 500) Wireless. "Not any more. With improved processing and networks there are off-the-shelf solutions that any business can use."
Many of these office productivity tools come standard in the latest batch of smart phones, PDA's and their operating systems - if you know where to look.
Be ready to hunt though: Some so-called smart phones aren't so small-business smart. For example, the Motorola Q ($179 with plan from Verizon Wireless) - while a perfectly good light-use personal communicator - is not up to intensive business e-mail and mobile Web browsing.
The limited keyboard and e-mail functions are my two major gripes. And the Blackberry Pearl ($99 with plan from AT&T) must have the most frustrating keyboard on the planet for my clunky fingers. Most business users, including me, are faithfully married to the traditional, larger Blackberry layout.
But some smart phones are ready for the small business limelight. I have been testing one such model, the Mogul - the latest Pocket PC from HTC ($299 with plan from Sprint (Charts, Fortune 500)).
This unit is almost an anti-iPhone: clunky, not much to look at and oh-so-hard to figure out. The screen is smallish and rather dim, particularly when you're outside. While the slide-away keyboard is among the largest for a handheld, the on-screen type is tiny.
Certain features require the use of several fingers from both hands plus (!) a small, fussy stylus. I find myself often holding the unit right next to my nose, hunched over like some digital gnome. Phone gallery
But once I got the hang of it, the Mogul simply rocked the house. It was one of the earliest smart phones to ship with Microsoft (Charts, Fortune 500) Windows' new Mobile 6.0 Professional operating system.
And if you're looking for a reason to upgrade to Vista on your computer, Mobile 6.0 is it. There were none of the synching headaches that I've experienced with almost every handheld I have used, including the iPhone.
The Mogul provides near-seamless integration between my entire Office suite of products and the handheld. I just had to remember to plug in the Mogul with any USB connector into my desk computer and my unit was both powered and synced automatically.
Though I must say, every few weeks some data did not sync properly and a complete re-sync was necessary. When that happened, many of my quick key and voice tags were lost, but nothing of real value.
Even better, the phone comes with mobile versions of Word, Excel and PowerPoint built in. It's a great feature, but typing on the tiny computer is dicey. Stories written on the Mogul can come off as complete gibberish if I am not careful, although my editors accuse me of blaming the phone when my feeble typing is the real culprit.
Still, I have made deadlines while at the airport, at a birthday party and at an abandoned airfield. The thing is a lifesaver.
With a little hack this unit can be turned into a legitimate EV-D0 data modem that can power my laptop. That alone is worth the purchase price.
Here's the trick: Click on "Programs" to launch the list of the software installed on your unit. Find the program called "Internet Sharing" and launch it. You'll see two dialogue boxes. Set the PC connection box to "USB" and the network connection box to "Sprint PCS".
Click on the connect button on the lower left of the screen. Wait for "Status Information" in the top left of the screen to say "Check USB cable connection." Then plug your USB into your laptop. And you are all set.
You will have to wait a good three minutes or so for your laptop to figure out it is connected to the Web via the Mogul. And some older computers will need to have their network connections manually refreshed for the hack to work, but with a bit of tinkering you can log on while in your car or on the road, provided you're not at the wheel. If there is data coverage, you are connected.
Bottom line: When my Mogul tester goes back in a couple of weeks, I'm not sure what I am going to do without it
Some analysts say that within five years, mobile phones in the United States will be able to make electronic payments, open doors, access subways, clip coupons and possibly act as another form of identification.
These futuristic uses for phones are becoming reality in countries like South Korea and Japan, which typically are ahead of the United States when it comes to mobile technology. A 963-person survey by Forrester Research, for instance, found that 15 percent of Japanese mobile phone users make payments and purchase products in stores with their phones.
The ideas have been tried in the United States too, but with less success.
In the late 1990s and early 2000s, banks and cell phone makers started conducting trials with U.S. customers. Limited groups of people were given the ability to scan their phones to make payments, enter stadiums and access public transit.
Those phone-forward guinea pigs didn't like the new functionalities as well as expected, and the ideas never took off on a commercial scale, said Ed Kountz, a senior analyst at Forrester.
But Kountz said there's now resurgent interest in merging phones with wallets and keys. In 2009, people are more dependent on their phones than they used to be.
"I think it is different this time around," said Kountz, who believes that phones in the United States will be used to make mobile payments within five years.
"The overall utility of cell phones has expanded, and more consumers are using the data aspects of cell phones," he said.
Phones everywhere
At the end of 2008, there were an estimated 4 billion mobile phone subscriptions worldwide, according to the International Telecommunication Union, a United Nations agency. That's about two cell phone subscriptions for every three people.
The fact that phones are everywhere and are commonly used to access the Internet and compute means they're well poised to overtake wallets, said Justin Denison, vice president of strategy for Samsung Telecommunications in the United States.
Gartner Inc., a technology research company, issued a report in May saying mobile payments will increase 70 percent in 2009, to 73 million people worldwide.
By 2012, the company says, 190 million people will make mobile payments.
Still, that adoption rate is relatively low. Only 3 percent of people in North America are expected to conduct mobile payments in 2012, Gartner says.
Potential problems
There are no guarantees that the technology will catch on in the United States as it has in Asia, Denison said.
"We can make investments. We can test things. But it's not always the case that [new technologies] get adopted here," he said.
And technology that turns phones into credit cards and IDs poses several potential problems.
If phones replace wallets, would-be thieves will see every person walking down the street talking on his or her phone as a target for robbery, said Lillie Coney, associate director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center.
"It would be the ultimate form of identify theft, that's for sure," she said.
Banks and mobile phone makers say the technology is safe. But it's not clear whether consumers will demand the change.
There's also no firm plan about who would pay for the technology to be added to phones and put into stores, said Simon Pugh, vice chairman of the NFC Forum, which supports the technology, and head of mobile payments at MasterCard.
"With any new technology, there's an ecosystem that needs to develop to make it viable," he said. "One of the key things that's needed is new hardware. You need a special chip in the phone, and you need another radio frequency antenna to communicate ... and that costs money."
Swipe a phone
Squeezing the contents of a person's purse into a phone relies mostly on a technology called near-field communication, which allows any enabled device to communicate with a cash register or subway turnstile through a secure radio frequency.
The technology is similar to the scanners and passes that allow commuters to pay for drives on a turnpike without stopping at a toll booth.
When a phone is enabled with near-field communication technology, shoppers can load bank and credit card information onto their phones and then scan them to buy goods at the grocery store, gas station, subway or any other place set up to read the device.
Doug Brown, head of mobile product development at Bank of America, said the idea is popular with consumers because it simplifies their lives.
"You don't need cash anymore. You don't need your wallet. That's really the endgame here, is that we can replace the physical wallet and all of the cash needs and the plastic that you're using today," he said.
Similarly, phones could include scannable identification information.
Eye scans and fingerprints would make phone IDs and payments more secure, Brown said. The ID technology might work like a corporate security badge, which pulls up personal information when scanned.
Some hotels have played with the idea of using near-field communication technology to enable a guest's phone to act as a room key. According to the NFC Forum, a New Zealand hotel last month installed locks that are opened with mobile phones.
Texting and barcodes
People can make transactions with their phones through lower-tech means, too.
Mobile banking apps use the Internet to allow people to transfer money and purchase goods online. And in some parts of the world, text messages sent by mobile phone are used as a form of currency.
In Kenya, for example, more than 6 million people are registered with M-Pesa, a service that lets people send text messages to make payments and transfer money from phone to phone.
Some of those users have access to banking for the first time because of their phones, said Susan Teltscher, head of market information and statistics at the International Telecommunication Union.
iPhone users in the U.S. and elsewhere already can upload plane tickets onto their phones and then scan a digital version of the ticket's barcode instead of presenting paper tickets.
There's hope that, eventually, bank customers here may have individual barcodes they can use to purchase goods in stores.
Kountz, the analyst at Forrester, said the economic recession may hold many of these ideas back. And consumer interest in mobile payments remains low: less than 10 percent, he said.
Still, many companies and consumers want to ditch plastic cards, unwieldy cash and hefty wallets.
To them, it's just a matter of how and when -- and who will pay.
A new study in the journal Science that is coauthored by University of Notre Dame physics doctoral student Pu Wang and researchers from Northeastern University suggests that the risk of mobile phone virus attacks will increase as a few operating systems gain more market share. The study also analyzes the pattern and speed of the spread of infection for Bluetooth and multimedia messaging services (MMS). The researchers used anonymous billing records of 6.2 million mobile subscribers and tracked calling patterns using the location of the closest mobile phone tower.
Smart phones, which can share programs and data, could attract virus writers at a level more disruptive than computer viruses. Mobile viruses can be spread by either Bluetooth or MMS communications protocols. Bluetooth viruses can infect phones with the technology within a local area, comparable to the spread of contact-based disease. The infected phone must be moved into another tower’s range in order to infect a new set of phones. The slow spread provides time to develop protection from the virus.
MMS viruses, like computer viruses, can send copies to everyone in the infected phone’s address book and copy themselves into a new handset in about two minutes, but the underlying call network is so fragmented that viruses can access only a fraction of susceptible phones. Since 2005, virus writers have developed hybrids that spread with both Bluetooth and MMS connections.
Wang, who is part of Notre Dame’s Center for Complex Network Research, notes that the increasing dominance of some operating systems for smart phones leaves the technology vulnerable to attacks by sophisticated virus writers.
“We believe that the understanding of the basic spreading patterns presented here could help estimate the realistic risks carried by mobile phone viruses and aid in the development of proper measures so as to avoid the costly impact of future outbreaks,” he said.
