The Nokia 808 PureView sports a camera that can take some of the best images we’ve ever seen from a smartphone.It has a 4-inch AMOLED display with Gorilla Glass,a size that a few of us here at GBM love, and it checks in with a measly 360 x 640 pixel resolution. No, the display is not going to win any awards.
The Nokia 808 PureView also comes with a single core, 1.3GHz processor that should get the job done, 512MB of RAM to ensure that it does, 16GB of built-in storage, a microSD card that can take up to a 32GB microSD card, and a 1,440 mAh battery that should supply ample battery life.Its design features a bulky 13.9mm design.The Nokia 808 PureView sports an advertised 41 megapixel Carl Zeiss camera that can take some pretty stunning photographs. Now, the camera won’t take 41 megapixel photos. Nokia has said that the camera can take true 38- and 35-megapixel photos but that they won’t turn out well.
Speaking of software, the Nokia 808 PureView is not a Windows Phone like the Lumia 610 and Lumia 900. Instead, the device is powered by another operating system called Symbian, more specifically,Symbian Belle.Nokia will be shifting away from Symbian and focusing on Windows Phone for the future. However, that doesn’t mean that Symbian is dead.
Nokia has actually come to an agreement with a company called Accenture which will continue to support Symbian, on Nokia’s behalf, all the way until 2016.Symbian Belle does bring some nice upgrades over previous versions of the OS though.They include re-sizable home-screen widgets, a new pull-down notification bar, and six homescreens instead of the three found in the previous version, Symbia anna.

If you thought that hydrogen power was a technology reserved for cars,the time comes to refresh your thought. The technology has long been touted as a potential power source for cleaner cars. Electronics manufacturers also have shown growing interest in replacing batteries that rely on toxic chemicals with hydrogen fuels cells that would last longer and produce only water as a by-product. Two recent patent applications by Apple indicate the company is looking at developing a hydrogen fuel cell system to complement the rechargeable batteries in a "portable computing device" - which could refer to Apple's range of mobile iDevices, its MacBook range of notebooks - or both. The applications say the technology could potentially power portable electronic devices for "days or even weeks,".One of Apple's patent applications says its fuel cell design would be capable of both providing power to and receiving power from a rechargeable battery, which "eliminates the need for a bulky and heavy battery within the fuel cell system, which can significantly reduce the size, weight and cost of the fuel cell system.
Since batteries are widely considered an impediment to smartphone development due to their bulky size and relatively short power supply, it's not surprising that Apple is eying an alternative. But because hydrogen is widely regarded as an alternative fuel for cars, the technology might make some people wonder about how it will be used to power small devices. For instance, a necessary byproduct of hydrogen fuel technology is water discharge.
Another major advantage of hydrogen power over batteries is that it's more environmentally friendly. Green-minded electronics manufacturers have long considered batteries an unfortunate necessity because the batteries involve toxic chemicals. Batteries can also be troublesome to recycle
Microsoft has revealed details of a login system for the next version of Windows based around pictures a user stores on a touch screen device,and comes in three different packages:
(1) 64-bit version – Only the OS
(2) 32-bit version – Only the OS
(3) 64-bit version with developer tools
Windows 8 is the first edition of Windows which will work on both ARM based tablets and traditional x86 (as well as x32 and x64) PCs based on ARM processors from Intel and AMD.
Windows 8 Minimum System Requirements
It is reported that Windows 8 is expected to have the same system requirements as Windows 7, and will run on existing PCs/laptops that run Windows 7. Here are the following minimum system requirements to runWindows 8:
Processor: 1GHz or faster 32-bit or 64-bit processor

Windows To Go
The “Windows To Go” seems to be an exciting feature that basically allows Windows 8 to boot from a USB device (called as Live USB), including user’s programs, settings and files. The feature is designed to work with both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0, and on both legacy NIOS and UDFI firmware. However, Microsoft says that a user will not be able to “Hibernate” with this feature. “Windows To Go” is a new feature in Windows 8 that enables enterprise administrators to create USB drives containing complete, managed Windows images that users can use to boot and run Windows on any Windows 7 or Windows 8 capable computer. Windows To Go makes it possible for employees to use a managed device whether they work from home, a client office or in a free seating environment Another interesting thing about this feature is that, if the USB drive is removed, Windows will automatically freeze, but will continue to operate if the USB drive is inserted back in the next 60 seconds after removal.
Windows Store
To compete with Apple, Windows has confirmed the introduction of a Windows Store, similar to Mac App Store, which allows users to browse through Windows applications, while developers can publish their Metro-style apps on Windows 8 devices
Windows 8 User Interface

Improved Windows Defender
The Windows Defender which was first released with Windows Vista is getting a security upgrade with the upcoming Windows 8. This would probably edge-our third-party antivirus and anti-malware programs. Windows Defender will become a full-fledged anti-malware solution for Windows 8. This will include protection against all types of malware such as virus, worms, Trojans and root kits. In addition to that, Windows Defender will provide real-time detection and protection from malware threats using a file system filter, and will interface with Windows secured boot, which is another security feature.
Internet Explorer 10
The developer preview of Windows 8 comes with a Metro version of Internet Explore (IE) 10. Since it is a preview version, it does not support any browser plug-ins and extension – including Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silver light.
