In 2009, the 15-year-old Pennsylvania School Girl Marissa Miller does not expect to be involved in a very strange case. Prosecutors accused George Miller sent nude photos to others through their mobile phone , and give her two paths: either to accept 10-hour pornography and sexual crimes on legal education courses, or face criminal charges.
Now something like Marissa that is completely avoided.
Apple received a patent for technology that allows it to read text messages before they're sent and censor or block them as needed. TechCrunch immediately described this as a patent on an "anti-sexting device" -- because the surest path to getting big Web traffic is to put the word "sexting" in a headline (you clicked on this story, didn't you?), despite the fact that "sexting" appears nowhere in the patent documents posted online. That was enough to incite the usual blogger stampede.
"In media-player applications, when a user makes a particular type of contact (e.g., three- or four-finger contact), a graphical object appears on the display surface at or near the point of contact," the patent reads. "The user can then adjust a parameter (e.g., volume, radio tuner, equalization) of a song or other audio source by making a twisting motion."
The patent was first applied for in December 2006, before the launch of the first iPhone, and credits Bas Ording, Scott Forstall, Greg Christie, Stephen Lemay and Imran Chaudhri as the inventors. It also covers the manipulation of options by increasing or decreasing the amount of pressure applied at the contact location. "In media-player applications, when a user makes contact with the display surface, a graphical object of a radio interface can be displayed," the patent reads.
"These techniques also may be used, in accordance with instructional embodiments, to require the administered devices to include certain text in messages," the patent adds. "These embodiments might, for example, require that a certain number of Spanish words per day be included in e-mails for a child learning Spanish."
U.S. law does not prohibit adult sexual content, related network and mobile software technology necessary to build a strong "firewall" between adults and minors. Finally, there is a clear social responsibility.

New high-tech product Tablet PC made in China
Tablet PC With the rise of mobile Internet has become increasingly hot, which is reflected in this year's CommunicAsia. Terminal manufacturers only show new phones in the past. The addition of telecommunications exhibition this year out of a class of products, it is Tablet PC. I believe that the Tablet PC market will usher in a competition, even though the short term the market will not be as competitive as mobile phones, but this marks a new product, new market start.
ZTE, a publicly-owned, Chinese corporation that designs and manufactures telecommunications equipment and systems, claimed that ZTE Light is more portable, easy-to-use and internet friendly tablet PC, which provides brand new experience to entertainment and internet access. The 3G ready ZTE Light has 3 megapixel camera and memory card slot for the extension upto 32 GB.
ZTE Light offers GPS navigation, music and video player with Mp4 support, and WiFi. It also supports voice calling on dual band UMTS 2100 MHZ/900 MHZ and internet access on HSUPA network with a download speed of up to 7.2 Mbps and an upload speed of up to 5.76 Mbps.
ZTE plans to sell the tablet through retail channels as well as in partnerships with telecom operators. All of the devices will carry the ZTE brand, but some may be co-branded with mobile operators, the company said.
So far the bulk of ZTE’s revenues come from the sale of telecom infrastructure equipment such as routers. But its shipments of handsets and other mobile devices are growing fast, and the company has said it aims to expand this segment to match revenues from the network gear segment.
Industry analysts have said that in the next 3-5 years, China's Tablet PC will be a sustained and rapid development stage. Before 2014, the rapid development of tablet PCs, Tablet PCs are in the Chinese market has a huge user base.

The apple promotes the Mac application procedure store
The apple has held named “Back to the Mac” the release conference on Base company Wednesday. Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced at the meeting that will promote is suitable in the Mac platform application procedure store three months later, using the platform will experience iOS to transplant to the Mac tabletop carries.
As opposed to Apple’s recent raft of iOS-based announcements, this one will mostly be about Mac OS 10.7. The new version of OS X will apparently be referred to as “Lion” if the not-so-subtle image on the invitation is any indication.
And what’s with the use of “Back to the Mac” anyway? Is Apple just being cute or is it a not-so-subtle hint that MobileMe’s “Back to my Mac” remote-access technology could be getting an upgrade?
CrunchGear’s got a good rundown of the current Apple hardware rumors, including touch-based iMacs and MacBooks, a revved MacBook Air and CPU/GPU bumps including the Nvidia Optimus. While we probably won’t see a new iPhone, iPod or iPad next Wednesday, that doesn’t mean that we won’t see iOS at the event.
I love Devin Coldeway’s theory that iOS could find its way into Mac OS X in the form of an iOS dashboard replacing the current (and disastrously unusable) Dashboard. It would be a great way for Apple to capitalize on the success of the App Store and begin to converge the two platforms.
While the announcement of an updated version of Mac OS X might not seem exciting initially, the prospect of touch-based Macs iOS integration should pique the interest of developers and users alike.
You’re the CEO: how would you converge OS X and iOS?

HP's Slate tablet pc was published for $799
Whether HP's Slate tablet pc was published has been a riddle when mentions for the first time after Windows 7 released conferences at the October, 2009. Today, Hewlett-Packard has released its Windows 7 Slate computer before the end of the year.
Hewlett-Packard's $799 device called Slate 500 attempts to replicate the PC experience in tablet form - in contrast to rivals who've brought more of a smart phone feel to their devices. The Slate runs the same version of Windows 7 used by many companies on their standard PCs.
The Slate 500 is based on Intel's Z540 Atom processor, which runs at 1.86 gigahertz, and has up to 2 gigabytes of DDR2 RAM. For storage it uses flash memory units with up to 64 gigabytes of storage.
It's built around an 8.9-inch diagonal multitouch screen and has 802.11 b, g and n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 3.0. The device weighs 1.5 pounds and is 0.58 inches thick. It's overall case is 9.2 by 5.9 inches.
So how will the HP Slate 500 stack up? Over at zicocn,james abe says the HP Slate 500 doesn't stack up, and that's the point – the HP Slate 500 is an entirely different type of device. "The Slate is running the same operating system as your desktop PC and laptop, assuming you're a Windows 7 user," Elgan writes. "It's running components designed for PCs, including 8 times the amount of RAM that's in an iPad. It runs PC applications unmodified."
HP said this Slate 500 "for rarely work in the traditional desktop computer, but need to be in a safe, familiar to professionals working in the Windows environment, it is a perfect PC."
