Mac touch tablet as opportunity

So last weeks has been following rumours on new Mac touch tablet,
which would be the real final break through on expanding Apple
market share.

As anyone will understand, that there is market space between iPhone
and MacBooks to be filled.

Other suppliers like Nokia are in quite difficult situation as it should
move from phone system developments to another level system development,
to be able to achieve same level usability as mixing of iPhone and Mac OS X
would bring to tablet.

So from this point time is running out from Nokia to expand market share
on touch tablets. If current iPhone functionalities together with Mac OS X
would be bring on tablet using 3G data, would you be ready to leave home
your mobile phone and computers ?

I would certainly do that and use Skype to make necessary phone calls ...

What has seen in last year is that Apple is capable to develope it's operation
system and from user point bring more user fancy functionalities in each
step of upgrade.

But what's more important that Apple has shown capability to read market
and evaluate technology readiness to be used in equipments as iPhone has
shown.

Also Apple releases functionally steady and reliable systems, which might
have been reason to delay tablet release on last years.

So I leave to wait what will come in June 2009 ......


My space

iPhone easter

So Easter is here and it was cold, much much more colder

than expected. But it can be quite enjoyable too.

So spring is still waiting behind corners and sunny days

are ahead .-) hope so...

So if you want to do some with brains read, listen music or

do as I did. Went to iPhone developers page and downloaded

to XCode iPhone 2 SDK package.

A good tip to start is to take exercise Your first iPhone application

and start to work on.

Inside SDK your find out most finest emulator for iPhone and 

interface Tool .... so find and keep working

"One developer said that he had programmed 9 years and it

took 3 months to to do first application" don't be sarcastic

just try out and enjoy it's easiness ;-)))

I'll really recommend to try out

Winter days

So last week was most beautiful sunny days and
lakes are still frozen.

Two swans crossed on the way to north. As lakes are
here still frozen I quess that these are staying here for
a while.

I have spend several days on the lake but now water
is coming below frozen snow. I got new snowshoes and
spend two hours walking on forest. This is really good way
to walk on forest.

Sunny winter day

After a grey days a sun was rising from east to fade away

the cold day ( - 18 degC ) and giving a hope for new dawn.

As you look over the white snow covered landscape you couldn't 

feel more lucky to be here. As I'm writing this the day has gone by

and I'm listening Loiri to sing about Aurora.

Kun maailma jää taakse ja Kauriin kääntöpiiri ylitetään sinne

jää auringon kääntöpiste - minne mennä kun maailma loppuu 

tullakseen uudestaan takaisin toisella puolella palloa.

 

Winter days

This winter came earlier than expected.

A day before Christmas eve Lake Saimaa was

open water with some ice on bays. And overnight

in Christmas morning Saimaa was frozen with

ice cover on it.

So on Boxing Day it was partly open and pumped 

water on top of ice cover. All this was frozen

to shiny as best skate ring.

So less one week after it's frozen and I have walked

on ice with my dogs. Last year this was possible as 

late as in February

 Today was the sunny afternoon and beautiful day 

on ice.

Tomcat and MAC

A New Year has changed to 2009 and a while has been

since last writing.

I worked with my home pages and as extended of year 2009

finalized Tomcat installation to MAC OS X. As version 6 was

corrupted I used instead a version 5.5.27.

And now it's running steady as hell - also picked up a 

installation page with step by step help page.

Apple

So after the bite of apple what could Adam say....

it's tasty as it can be and much more easier to use.

I would recommend to take big bite and enjoy

the easy usability of Mac. Mr Micky Mouse is

all way out of date with Vista 2010 upgrades.

Bye bye Vista ... here comes MAC
