PhonesNigeria Launches First Communication Satellite In Africa-NIGCOMSAT-1 by coolskeelz(op): 3:11am On May 14, 2007
Nigeria has made history today as the first Communication Satellite in Africa goes into space today from a location in China. It was televised live on NTA

The satellite named NIGCOMSAT-1,took more than 30 minutes to lauch.
Lauching a satellite involves the transportation of the spacecraft from the ground into the geo-stationary orbit, which is about 35,200km away from the earth. This is the distance into the space.

The entire launch activity, or launch campaign involves the integration of the spacecraft, of the launch vehicle, which is rocket and after the integration, the firing of the launcher into space to transport the spacecraft into the entire orbit.

This is a good development,read the processes involved here

BusinessHow To Beat Competition In Handset Retail Business by coolskeelz(op): 2:51am On May 08, 2007
The competition in the handset business in Nigeria is enormous especially in the major cities like Lagos, Abuja, PH etc.Only entrepreneurs who go the extra mile will always make it. Though the market for GSM handsets is very large, most people find it difficult to break even in the business; an idea is what you will need to differentiate yourself from the crowd and competition no matter where you are located.

The secret to this success is the Nokia handset retail business- this simply means branding your shop with Nokia and selling of only Nokia phones. The Nokia brand is the secret.Nokia as you know is unarguably the leading phone manufacturer in the world today, It is also the fastest selling brand in the world today with over 40 percent of worldwide market sales. And here in Nigeria, the Nokia brand controls over 46 percent of the market share. It is the biggest brand in handset business and it also commands one of the strongest consumer loyalties all over the world with great support. this can be seen in some of its fastest selling models like 3310,2100,1100 in Nigeria, the Nokia 1100 for example has sold over 100 million pieces since it was lauched,not to talk of the 3310 model which was literally sold out. The company is known for making high volume of sales in their brands, and imagine you sharing in this, check out the latest Nokia models in the market today, they are models to desire and die for. That same Nokia sense of quality and uniqueness will reflect in your profit margin as you make it your sole product stock.

Setting up your own nokia store should not be that expensive, you can get all the information and assistance you will need from a Nokia shop like the one in Lagos at Palm shopping mall, lekki.

Starting your own Nokia store you would first require your integrity as a person committed to quality Nokia handsets. This should be your first investment because people who are going to patronize will want a genuine product. You must not stock substandard Nokia phones, they will patronize you because of quality and not for cheap price, so always emphasize on quality rather than price. That means you should stock your Nokia phones from a reputable source which guarantee original products with strong warranty. Branding your shop should not be a problem; you can get branding materials from your supply source or from a Nokia office.

By branding your shop with Nokia and offering only original Nokia phones you will be ahead of competition while you still sell at a good profit margin. You will never cease making money with a brand like Nokia.

BusinessRe: Customer Service In A Nigerian Business by coolskeelz(m): 2:46am On May 08, 2007
I just wanted to post my current ordeal with Glo customer service before i stumble on this ongoing discourse.i feel very bad the way companies especailly  in  telecoms and the banks handle customers.
imagine this,i bought a #500 naira Glo recharge card to make a call last two weeks,in the process of scratching out the foil 2 reveal the pin,i over scratched it .there and then i knew i have entered wahala with these telecoms people.i had to start calling 121 and after about 400 trials or more i finally got someone whom i explained everything to and the guy just said i should visit any Glo office near me because he has no power or its out of his reach to give me the over sratched numbers since the numbers missing out were the last 4 numbers from the right.that he only has access to the first 9 digits from my left or so,even with the batch number and serial number i couldnt get help from him,
i was embittered by this and had to visit their Toyin street office in ikeja lagos when it was convenient for me,there they collected the data and told me that it will reflect in my account in the NEXT 2 WEEKS.I was more confused than being annoyed,i was disappointed totally on how they handled this and i know this is what millions of people go through in their hands everyday.

uptil now as am writting,nothing has reflected in my account and its over one week now,am still waiting .Is this how to treat a customer?what if i don't live where i can get a Glo office like in the villages,i still feel bad.i have since started using another network.

Cant GLO learn how to make scratch cards like MULTILINKS.I have been using MULTILINKS CARD and have not heard any problem,anyway i don't blame them,na me find their wahaha sad
PhonesRe: 3G In Nigeria by coolskeelz(op): 2:32am On May 06, 2007

Phones203 Million Mobile Phones Will Use Linux Operating Systems By 2012 by coolskeelz(op): 11:44am On Apr 12, 2007
This is a research report conductd by ABI research that the Linux community is assaulting the mobile phone environment with a two-pronged attack that focuses on commercial operating system solutions and real-time operating system (RTOS) replacement. In a new study, ABI Research forecasts that by 2012, more than 127 million devices will be enabled with a commercial Linux OS, up from 8.1 million in 2007. Additionally, device shipments that incorporate Linux as an RTOS replacement are set to grow to more than 76 million units in 2012, up from nearly zero in 2007.

what does this translate to,will this mean an opportunity for linux admins or what?please let us analyse this.

NOKIA N95 3G PHONE REVIEW

The Nokia N95 was first announced in September 2006 at the Nokia Open Studio event in New York. .The N95 will be remembered as the 3G handset that took us to somewhere new.

Of course, the Nokia Nseries is aimed at users looking to pack as many features as possible into one device.The full title for the N95 is the N95 Nseries Multimedia Computer.

Even before it had started shipping it had won an award ! This was from Popular Science magazine's "Best of What's New" Award in the publication's annual search for the top 100 technology innovations of the year.

The Nokia N95 offers a unique dual-slider device, including integrated GPS, a 5 megapixel camera, digital music player, full PIM functionality and support for 3G and HSDPA networks. Oh, and a full suite of N-series applications and an excellent Web browser (with Wi-Fi support).

Can the N95 weighing only 120 grams and with a maximum thickness of 21 mm really deliver all that Nokia claims. Well lets dig deeper.

It runs the latest version of the S60 software platform ( S60 3rd Edition P1 ). This means a new version of the S60 browser, a better RSS application, Flash Lite and more. It's all powered by a thumping ARM11 OMAP 2420 processor running at 330 MHz.

The unique two-way sliding design works as follows. Slide up to reveal the keypad and slide down to reveal the touch sensitive media player controls. With the player controls viewable, the screen powers into landscape mode. The player controls include forward, back, stop and pause play for the Music Player.


This is a reasonably light handset for a multimedia computer and the Nokia design team must be congratulated. With the phone closed the menu and normal key functions are accessible. The primary camera is at rearside along with a LED light / cover. For video calls, the secondary camera is located top front.

The Nokia N95 offers a powerful 5 megapixel camera with a Carl Zeiss Tessar 2.8/5.6 mm lens, auto focus and flash. Pictures are shown on the impressive 2.6 inch display. You can upload your photos directly from your camera phone to the Flickr online photo community. At 30 frames per second, you can easily capture moving objects.

The ring slider opens and closes the shutter. The camera switches on when the shutter is in the “ON” position. The screen is used as the viewfinder with the phone held horizontally. If you can use a digital camera phone, the N95 is similar to operate.

The result is a camera phone that produces results close to digital camera quality but with some limitations. The main observation would be limited sharpness / blurry results. However, unless you closely examine the results you may never notice anything adverse.



The full technical specification of the camera is is as follows :

Carl Zeiss Tessar 2.8/5.6 mm lens with auto focus

5 mega pixel (2595 x 1944 pixels) CMOS sensor

5.6 mm focal length corresponds to a 35 mm frame

Mechanical shutter with 1/1000 to 1/3 seconds

20x digital zoom

Focusing range: 10 cm (macro) to infinite

Macro range: 10 cm to 50 cm

Integrated LED flash, range up to 1.5 m

Flash modes: on, off, automatic

Capture modes: standard, series, self timer, video

Subjects: landscape, portrait, night, sport, macro, night portrait

White balance: automatic, sunny, cloudy, lamps, fluorescing

Color tones: normal, sepia, black & white, color saturation, negative

Speed: automatic, high, medium, low

Closeable flap to protect the optics


Looking at the technical specification above you can see there are plenty of features and options such as landscape, portrait, night, sport, macro, night portrait to experiment with.

We are told you can record video but didn't get that far as we wanted to concentrate on the match winning camera and on-board GPS.

The GPS is a crowd-pulling addition to the N95. According to Nokia, GPS can be accessed in 100 countries. Mars and the Moon are not included to-date. The Maps software application lets you view - would you believe downloaded maps !

Once you got the maps on your device you are ready to go. The maps themselves are free but you will need to purchase the navigational data from Nokia. This means that if you want real-time directions ( visual and voice ) you have to pay. We recommend you just purchase a week's worth to get started and see if the experience / package meets your needs. A very clever earner from Nokia.

The way it works is as follows :

- you search for your desired location by location, address or post code

- it jumps to your present location and displays this ready to track you

- follow the on-screen and audible instructions e.g. turn right etc.


Does it work ? Yes it does and it can be viewed in landscape or portrait mode. At the moment there is no speed camera or road traffic alerts but I am sure this will come. The search facility seemed a bit hit and miss but a route planned trip of 35 miles was okay. One thing to remember is that you need to have the bottom slider open to get the best GPS signal because this is where the antenna is situated.

The only issue could be that the downloading of maps from the nokia servers becomes slow. It will be tested over the next few months as there is a stampede of new N95 owners ready to join in. Of course, as its Free the stampede may turn into an avalanche.

One possible way to avoid this is to use your PC to download large maps onto your microSD memory card. In 2006 Nokia bought out Smart2go and the Smart2go application became "Nokia Maps". So checkout www.smart2go.com and save yourself a lot of wasted time. You could download the whole of London in one swoop.

The whole music player thing is slick and functional. Nokia’s music software lets you transfer tracks easily. There is also drag and drop possibilities. The sides of the phone house the stereo speakers and the sound was well balanced with a good feel. With a cutting edge handset like this you still need to be able to use your bins. So I'm glad to see the 3.5mm headphone socket.

Nokia has introduced a Mozilla type proprietary browser for the N95. I'm not quite sure what this means yet I know you can browse in portrait or landscape modes. There is a “fast browsing” option which speeds things up by displaying thumbs of the pages. Might be useful.

All the N95 applications and particularly the GPS must have an adverse effect on battery life. I feel that for phones with GPS the phone makers now need to include an official “GPS battery time” just like for talktime, videotime and standby time. During our tests we found it needed an evening charge each night. Our N95 had a Nokia Battery (BL-5F) 950mAH.

The bottom line for the N95 is that it is getting close, but at the moment cannot fully replace a dedicated digital camera or a sat-nav system. There are limitations. But HEY, a 3G HSDPA phone with a 5 mega pixel (2595 x 1944 pixels) camera and on-board GPS means its going to be very well accepted by all you mobile warriors out there.
