Get to know Mobile Documents
GLOBAL � Email delivery to your mobile phone is becoming very popular. Emailing from your phone has plenty of benefits, but what do you do with those emails that are 20MB in size, with some high-res images or 30 page PDFs? Mobile Documents by VISIARC, offers email retrieval, via The Cloud. Read on to find out more.
Emailing on-the-move, via a phone, is a great way of keeping in contact with anybody in the world. Especially if you�re waiting for that important email from work telling you you�ve won that new contract, or something. However � up until now � opening large emails on your Nokia phone has not only been time-consuming, but also costly. Downloading a file of 65 MB, just to find out that the information inside isn�t really relevant, can end up costing you lots of money. So you could log onto a PC and download the files that way, but that�s not always possible when you�re on a train, plain or anywhere else. Mobile Documents opens up your email as a normal email client would, but within the email it�ll show you the attachments all laid out with details of how large the file is, how many pages, the type of document and a thumbnail of the document itself.
Setting up Mobile Documents
First on the agenda is to download the app. This app�s currently in Beta phase, which means it�s still in development but is nearly ready. Beta apps give you the opportunity to play with an app before it goes live, so some changes will be made when it finally graduates. Download from Nokia Beta Labs, or the Ovi Store. We noticed that you have to install the app to the C drive, as installing to E meant the homescreen widget didn�t find Mobile Documents. Install complete, you�ve got the freedom to browse the demo on your phone. We�d recommend you try the demo first as it�s a good way of knowing what the app is all about without setting up your email addresses, that comes later.
Happy with your tutorial and want to continue setting up your email accounts? Go back to the main screen and enter your email address to sign up for the full version, which is still free. During setup, you�ll need to assign your email account with a pin number, for added security, which we think is a good idea.
Homescreen widget setup
Find an empty slot on one of your homescreens and long-press on the screen. Select the plus symbol, scroll to mail and your mailbox will ask you to select which email account you wish to use. Now you�ll notice you have the Mobile Documents logo next to your email address, selecting this will mean all your mail will now run through the Mobile Documents client.
Viewing attachments
If you receive a large email with attachments, open it up and scroll to the bottom to find the attachments. Pressing on one of these attachments will bring up a menu with the options; View, Read, Copy and Download.
View, opens a preview of the document with the ability to flick through the pages from left to right. This is great for selecting what you actually want to view from the document without having to download it first.
Read, transcribes the document for you and gives it to you in the simplest form. If you�ve got a PDF or Word document, Read will give you the text version.
Copy, allows you to copy that file to your clipboard and Download, does what you�d expect. It saves it to to your phone for later use, if you so need it.
One of the great features of Mobile Documents is that you can send any of the attachments you�ve already received, onto somebody else without having to download the file. Because all this data is never actually downloaded in the first place, you�re simply passing the information from the server to the other recipient, this is called Cherry Picking.
Cherry Picking
Open Mobile Documents, select the email account you wish to send an email from if you have more than one, and compose new mail. Start with adding the contact who will receive the email. Next, press the screen below the subject line. This is the box you�ll need to type your message in. Once you�ve typed your message, press Add Att. at the bottom of the screen and it�s here that you can browse any other email � from any email account you�ve set up- and add an attachment straight into your message � without ever downloading it onto your device. Pressing send will send the email instantly, from The Cloud.
Document Support
You�ll be able to retrieve most documents that get sent to your inbox, as there is currently support for a variety of Word documents and image files;

Currently Mobile Document is available for the Nokia N8. Download it from Ovi Store, or Nokia Beta Labs However, remember as it�s a Beta app, it may be a little rusty around the edges.

Motorola Mobility and AT&T Announce ATRIX� 4G, the Future of Mobile Computing
The world�s most powerful smartphone packs the power and capabilities of a PC in your pocket through Motorola�s revolutionary webtop
LAS VEGAS � CES � Motorola Mobility, Inc. (NYSE: MMI), and AT&T unveiled Motorola ATRIX� 4G, the only smartphone that allows you to carry the power of mobile computing inside your pocket. Motorola�s revolutionary webtop application changes mobile computing forever by unleashing the power of the smartphone like never before. Designed to bring unprecedented computing to your smartphone, Motorola�s webtop application runs a full Mozilla Firefox 3.6 browser and supports Adobe� Flash� Player to open up all the rich graphics, animations and video on the web. Motorola ATRIX 4G includes a dual core processor with each core running at 1 GHz, delivering up to two GHz of processing power. Put simply, Motorola ATRIX 4G is the world�s most powerful smartphone.
�Consumers are increasingly using smartphones as their primary digital screens,� said Bill Ogle, chief marketing officer, Motorola Mobility, Inc. �Motorola ATRIX 4G ushers in a new era of mobile computing. ATRIX comes loaded with the Motorola webtop application, and when used with one of our exclusive docks, enables consumers to extend the capabilities of their smartphones. Together, these provide a revolutionary interactive computing experience that empowers individuals in new ways for staying connected, informed and entertained at home, on the job and anywhere in between.�
"With ATRIX 4G, we are rethinking what a smartphone can be, and literally changing the game with a new device category that combines the power of a laptop with the latest smartphone features and 4G speeds," said David Christopher, chief marketing officer, AT&T mobility and consumer markets. "With Motorola Mobility, we're delivering on our commitment to provide customers with the best mobile broadband experience and best smartphones."
Motorola ATRIX 4G is designed to essentially become a user�s primary digital hub to create, edit and interact with documents, media and content. This is facilitated by Motorola�s webtop application and incredible new accessory docks, such as the Laptop Dock, that provide users with a larger screen, keyboard and trackpad enabling them to have an enhanced and more interactive computer-like experience with their devices.
While in the webtop application users can run their Android applications in a window, browse their favorite websites with a full Firefox desktop browser, send instant messages and make phone calls, all at the same time. Calls continue uninterrupted if Motorola ATRIX 4G is removed from a dock. Users can take advantage of the ability to surf the web, view social networking, and use HTML5 web-based applications and supported cloud computing services. Plus, the new Entertainment Center feature lets you show all of the photos, music and videos you already enjoy on-the-go on a big screen in your living room. In the U.S., ATRIX 4G will feature the AT&T U-verse� Mobile application, which allows users to schedule recordings, and for qualifying TV customers, download and watch hit TV shows on their smartphones.
Motorola ATRIX 4G provides consumers with instantaneous access to all their emails, files and media. While using the webtop application, business users with an existing Citrix account will benefit from the integrated Citrix Receiver application that provides secure, high performance access to virtual desktops as well as Windows�, web and office applications hosted on Citrix XenDesktop. In addition to the full suite of office productivity applications and email applications, users can also access a great number of web applications such as Salesforce.com, Google Docs, and any HTML application or service from the full desktop browser.
Motorola ATRIX 4G runs Android� 2.2 with access to more than 100,000 apps and games in the Android Market�.
Motorola is introducing two industry-leading companion docks for ATRIX 4G:
The Motorola HD Multimedia Dock has three USB ports and an HDMI port enabling connections to a keyboard, mouse, speakers and HDMI-compatible monitor for working at your desk/office, or connecting to an HDMI-compatible television and home theater audio system for interacting with content and enjoying video, music, games and more in your living room.
The Motorola Laptop Dock has an incredibly thin design with an 11.6-inch screen, full keyboard, stereo speakers, 36Wh three-cell battery that delivers up to eight hours of battery life and weighs just 2.4 pounds. Users simply dock their Motorola ATRIX 4G into the back of the Laptop Dock to turn it into an active, connected machine to experience true mobility at work, home and playing on-the-go in a form factor that�s lighter and smaller than most laptops on the market.
Key features and specifications:
A dual-core processor capable of opening web pages twice as fast as most other smartphones, rendering games faster and displaying HD video on big-screen TVs
A full 1 GB of RAM for twice the RAM of most smartphones to deliver effortless multi-tasking, such as watching a movie while receiving and responding to email
The world�s first qHD display for a smartphone, offering high resolution and 24-bit color, making it easier to read indoors and outdoors
Front- and rear-facing cameras and the ability to record in HD
Convenient biometric fingerprint reader for easily unlocking your phone while providing extra security
Up to 48GB of storage (16GB internal and optional 32GB MicroSD card) � enough to store thousands of songs, photos and movies
2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi 802.11n support, enabling as much as 50 percent faster download and upload speeds in WiFi mode compared to most other smartphones
Optional AT&T Mobile Hotspot service for connecting up to five additional Wi-Fi-enabled devices
Under 11 mm thin with an extra large 1930 mAh battery for extended standby and talk time
Two microphones for noise-reduction technology so your calls will be heard loud and clear in even the noisiest environments
Supports HD video capture and replay for most multimedia standards

Creative ZiiO Tablet
It's ZEEo, not Zaio. Sorry. Anyway, we take a look at Creative's new Android-based tablet for media lovers!
Getting started with Nokia Big Screen
Fans and owners of the Nokia N8 will be all too aware of its multimedia capabilities. Taking superb photos, shooting high-def videos and listening to your music library is all very fun on your own, but what if you want to share them with friends? Nokia Big Screen lets other people share your experience, on your TV set. Find out how, and why this is a must-have.
In the olden days, people huddled around a projector to watch slides from somebody�s holiday and it was a whole family affair. These days it�s slightly different. We�ve moved from projector to passing around pieces of paper with photos on them, to � as of late � passing our digital cameras around the room to share our images. Until now that is. Nokia Big Screen allows you to share your holiday snaps with everyone, in one go, at the same time.
Currently residing at Nokia Beta Labs, it�s an experimental app that�s aimed at showcasing the best features of the Nokia N8 and it does that well. Log into Nokia Beta Labs now using your regular Nokia account, download the app and we�ll talk you through it.
Once installed, there�s no need to do anything else on the phone. Find your HDMI adapter from your box (CA-156), lift the cover to the HDMI port on the Nokia N8 and plug in the cable. Plug in a standard HDMI cable into the back of your TV and plug the other end into the CA-156. You�ll see the TV spring to life and within a few seconds you�ll be looking at a menu screen, with thumbnails of your image collection cascading down the screen and the option to select Videos, Music, Photos, About and Exit on the left.
Controlling Nokia Big Screen
Once you�ve plugged in your Nokia N8 to you TV, you�re faced with this new interface and you�ll see at the top of the screen you�ll be notified that your phone is searching for a Bluetooth device. This is where you have the option to connect controllers such as a Bluetooth keyboard or a Wii Remote, as your method of controlling the on-screen features. Connecting via bluetooth is a great way to flick through your phone�s content while sitting back from the comfort of your couch, without feeling tethered to the TV by the cable. Using the navi-pad on the Wii Remote, you navigate through the features. The A button selects whatever you want to select and the B button underneath is your back button.
How to connect the Wii Remote
Attach your Nokia N8 to your TV using the HDMI cable. Wait for the screen to display your phone�s content and the green bar at the top of the page to display �Searching for remote controllers�. Now press and hold buttons 1 and 2 on your Wii Remote, until you see �Connected to Nintendo RVL-CNT-01? in the green bar at the top of your TV. You�re now set to use the Wii Remote as your controller.
You don�t have to use a Bluetooth controller to use Nokia Big Screen, but it certainly makes browsing content easier. If you choose not to use Bluetooth, the screen on your Nokia N8 will have changed to a very simple controller, with a four-way directional pad, an OK button, back button and a power off key. Very simple to use.
Features
On your TV, you�ll be able to browse through the media stored on your Nokia N8. Using the menu on the left, you can view your Videos or your Photos, in stunning high-definition. Selecting one of these options takes you to a separate page where you can scroll through your snapshots or mini-movies, enabling you to share those holiday moments with anyone who wants to see them.
Selecting Music takes you to your music library in much the same way you�d see it on the device. With the albums � including album art � stacked side-by-side, scrolling from left-to-right lets you painlessly search for your favourite band. Hit play, return to the photos page and browse your images, while still listening to music playing in the background.
Here�s Timo P��kk�nen from Nokia, showing Nokia Big Screen in action.
What we find cool about Nokia Big Screen is that it works on any TV. So that means you can plug into your friends� TV, your parents� TV or the widescreen set at the local pub. Should they allow it, of course. Pop the Wii Remote in your bag and you�re set to impress, wherever you are.
Nokia Big Screen is currently available for the Nokia N8 and for the upcoming Nokia E7.
