Google Nexus One Phone Hardware Specifications Revealed: "

Since we heard about the Google [GOOG] Nexus One mobile phone a few days ago, we haven’t really had any details about the specifications on the Google Phone, until the guys over at These Are The Droids analyzed the Android 2.1 ROM for the Nexus One.


They have managed to identify a number of interesting specifications from the ROM, which include a Snapdragon processor, so it is probably a 1GHz processor, plus an auto focus camera with built in LED flash.

Other details include OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics, a built in accelerometer, a magnetic compass, WiFi, Bluetooth, a stereo FM speaker and a noise cancellation chipset.


So it looks like the Google Nexus One will also come with a built in FM tuner, and it looks like the WiFi will be 802.11n as opposed to 802.11g which is in the majority of smartphones available today.


Another interesting feature is a built in proximity sensor, or light sensor, although we are not quite sure what that would be used for as yet it does sound very interesting.


Are Google going to keep us guessing until next year? I think Google has learnt something from Apple as all these leaks and information are drawing a lot of attention to the Nexus one.


Lets hope we get an official announcement from Google soon on when we are going to the the Nexus One in the shops, I suspect this is going to be one very popular Android handset.

Rumor Mill: New mac Mini Coming?

There are reports all over the Internet about a new Mac Mini to be possibly released at MacWorld.  TUAW is reporting that a new version of the Mini will include an optical drive that can be swapped for a second hard drive.  The housing will look much like the Time Capsule with a "lip" for consealing the optical dive slot and cooling. Whether true or not, I would like to see a few features in a new Mac Mini. More RAM (Of course.) NVIDIA chipset. FW port for external HD My main use for a Mini would be for media.  A Mini on my network using Front Row would be great for movies and TV.  (Sorry, Apple TV.)

Calculate Age or Years Elapsed in an Apple Numbers Sheet

Often it is useful to show a person's age or years elapsed since a start date.  For example: Hire Date: 4/1/2012 - Years of service: 1.5 Here's a formula for Numbers that will do the trick: =IF(ISBLANK(cellReference),"",DATEDIF( cellReference ,TODAY(),"D")/365.2425) Replace the cellReference with the actual cell reference. i.e.: (A1)  So here's the breakdown: =IF(ISBLANK(cellReference),""  --- this checks to see if there is a start date in your referenced cell.  For example say your spreadsheet has a cell (A1) that holds a date of birth, but it is not yet referenced, this will result in an empty string. (Blank cell) Otherwise, it calculates the years:  DATEDIF( cellReference ,TODAY(),"D")/365.2425) DATEDIF compares two dates. The first date is your cell reference i.e.: (A1) The second is the current date according to your computer, iOS device: TODAY()  returning the Day -  "D" Then the difference is divi...

Acid3 Test

I did an Acid3 test with a few browsers and these are the results I got.  For those unfamiliar, as I understand it, Acid3 is a test to see how compliant a browser is with current standards with the W3C . Browser # 1: Chrome by Google.  Running under Windows Vista Home on my Mac in VMWare. 79/100 Not bad for a new browser.  I'll be curious to see what the Mac version will do when it comes out. Browser #2: Firefox v.3.0.1 Mac OS X 10.5.4 71/100 Not as good as Chrome, but I have a PILE of extensions on Firefox. Browser #3: Safari 3.1.2 Mac OS X 10.5.4 75/100 Better than Firefox but still lower than Chrome. My take is overall they seem to perform about the same but I'll stick with Safari for now.  I use Firefox for much of my web browsing, but Safari is fast becoming a close second. Someday, maybe I'll test Opera too. Cheers!
