The iPhone4 arrives in India
The schedule launch of the iPhone4 in India has always been very offbeat, since Bharti Airtel and Aircel have just now signed agreements prior to the distribution of iPhone in India 4. No date has yet been announced marketing.
Airtel is the first Indian operator (and the fifth in the world), and then Aircel is the seventh. Airtel and Aircel manages GSM/3G network, which means they will market the iPhone 4 even than we have in Europe. MTN, MTS, RCOM BSNL, Virgin Mobile (Tata) Idea are also operate their CDMA networks, although some of these operators also have GSM/3G networks. Apple is in talks with at least two CDMA operators in India
The iPhone has never taken off in India particularly, because of its price in open market, 480 € without subsidy for iPhone 3G 8 GB, facing a gray market that sells almost 20% cheaper. Then the lack of network; that is the deployment of 3G in India, it is now only growing.

OpenDNS and Google DNS slow your iTunes Store and Apple TV
According to Joe Maller, if you find your downloads from the iTunes Store or the Apple TV a little slow, perhaps the fault of the DNS servers you use. Google DNS or OpenDNS are often faster than the DNS provided by your ISP, but their actual operation may cause problems with the iTunes Store.
Apple has indeed hired the services of Akamai and Limelight, systems, content distribution servers that have around the world: you download and the server nearest to you, and the mass downloads is spread over a vast network.
It is quite possible OpenDNS and Google DNS, central services, direct all their users to a single same data center of NSC, causing them to overload and thus slower speeds. The problem is not confined, moreover, not to the iTunes Store means any service using a CDN discriminate against users based on their geographic location will have this kind of problem with Google DNS and OpenDNS: it will be for example the case of YouTube or many services software downloads, including one built into Mac OS X.

Computers in cars
Many of us may have built up the computers in cars, but they may be looking odd! These high power systems can only able to run during the ride. There are disadvantages like these, makes these types of systems get vanish and leave its place to the innovative means of today’s car computer systems. The main objective of this present car computer system is to make our vehicle live and get connected to the Internet all the time (even when you not in a drive). These car computers takes low power to run and the main advantage with these machines is they do not flattening the car battery.
A friend of mine named Jonathan told me that he has recently equipped his car with an excellent car computer system which he can access and monitor his car remotely! This machine can let him know all the information the includes the engine data and also the location of his vehicle in google map. It is really quite impressive to hear that he can stop, start or lock his car remotely by means of a cell phone outfitted with 3g network. I recently found an online site at planetgargoyle.com, which is an exclusive place to get lot of information about the car computers like software programs, car entertainment systems and so on. I am pretty much impressed with this online site and would like to suggest this site for the people who want to know about the car computer systems.
