Microsoft SkyDrive Bumps up Storage to 25GB
Microsoft has been working real hard on their online storage service SkyDrive. We were told by the SkyDrive Team that an update was coming, and here it is! They’ve increased the storage space for their free service from 5GB to 25GB, making it one among the largest free online storage providers. SkyDrive has opened up for 6 more regions and 13 more languages.
What’s new in SkyDrive:
- Free storage space increase to 25GB
- Windows Live Wave 3 look and feel
- Folders can now be entirely downloaded as ZIP file.
- SkyDrive users can now view photos in beautiful slide show.
- Share files with users who don’t have Windows Live ID
Previously, SkyDrive demanded users to login to their Windows Live ID to view shared stuff, but not anymore. You can share files and folder with anybody with a email address without requiring Windows Live ID. 25GB of free storage is massive indeed, but before you can think of using SkyDrive for backup, let me tell you that individual file size restriction is 50MB, that means your DVDs won’t fit there.
Fake iPhone Nano Already Available in Thailand
Protective case for a small device that resembles iPhone has surfaced online, this leads to the speculation that a smaller iPhone nano might be under construction. While Macworld is still a month, tiny clones of iPhone have already hit the stores in Thailand.
The above is the picture of fake iPhone nano being sold in Thailand. These fakes manufactured by shady Chinese manufactures, not only resemble the iPhone, but the branding “Apple” and iPhone” have also been ripped. The software which runs the phone looks a lot like the real iPhone with similar layout and icons, making it hard for a common man to distinguish when the device is switched off.
iPhone Nano as of now is still under speculation, but if at all a real iPhone nano arrives, it’ll have a hard time dealing with these clones.

Google Released Unlocked Android Phones for Developers
Unlocked G1 will come in dark steel case with slick patterns on the back. This phone will be available for developers in United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Japan, India, Canada, France, Taiwan, Spain, Australia, Singapore, Switzerland, Netherlands, Austria, Sweden, Finland, Poland and Hungary. There is a tiny catch though, only one phone per account will be provided to prevent these unlocked phones from entering consumer market. I don’t know how far this is going to help in isolating consumer market from unlocked hardware, but my guess is that unlocked G1s will land up in grey market real soon.
Google says “non-developers buying unlocked Android phones for personal use will face issues”. They go on to say “Since the devices can be configured with system software not provided by or supported by Google or any other company, end users operate these devices at their own risk.” LOL!

Plica concept Phone
Move over, iPhone 3G. Should the Plica phone concept actually be realized, it will surely overtake the iPhone's popularity in no time thanks to a dual screen display (hello, DS Lite!). One of those screens is a touch screen keyboard while the other functions as a touch monitor. You can also choose to view an entire web page on a single display or have them spread out across both. It would be interesting to see what kind of battery life the Plica offers, and will it boast even more functionality to rival that of a netbook? Hopefully designer James Piatt's idea will hit a chord with a hardware manufacturer somewhere and actually roll off production lines.
