What is FutureTechIdeas

I am currently in the process of finding that question out, What is FutureTechIdeas ? So I'll tell you what is was and how it came to be.
Why I am not sure? because its GROWING, FutureTechIdeas was a name I came up with to represent me and my videos,pics,profiles,articles etc. Well after a while It started to become known to a small group of Geeks and Tech enthusiast. I figured why not see where I can take this FutureTechIdeas name. It's constantly growing so I don't want to say its a business,organization etc. Because I'm not completely sure on what FutureTechIdeas FTI is Or could be.

I need more Power!!!!

I currently find myself dying, no no that's not what I mean my Battery in my iPhone and iPad dying a lot faster. Which sucks big time because those are my main gadgets, I'm writing this on my IPad mini with 53% battery Juice. My demands for the ipad are becoming more in terms with the battery, it seems every time I update the OS the battery holds less juice and last a shorter period. Now you may not see or realize it but I am a major user and notice small things, and the battery is lasting a lesser time with each update. I hope the next Gen iPad/iPhone battery will have a electrifying affect no pun intended.

My Apologies!

I recently became sick with a cold and was unable to write articles or record videos. I would like to apologize, it's a lot harder when your the only one doing the articles and videos etc. When things go south, your work stops and the production of content for your Sites etc stop as well, this is why it's a good idea to bring in partners or contributors before getting your hands full by yourself.

So once again I'd like to apologize to everyone for not being able to get articles etc. out for you all.
I plan to be back on schedule either tomorrow or the 16th. Thank you all for your support!

Verizon Was big in 2012

Yes Verizon had a good year they announced 9.8 million smartphone Sales in 2012, I sadly was forced to go with Sprint :( But will soon Switch to a better more covered carrier, here in Maine there is scarce coverage for Sprint. So when my contract is up I shall switch to either Verizon or AT&T. What Carrier do you prefer?

Intel goes big in mobile

They introduced the Intel Atom Z2420 processor for the smartphone markets,
It will bring High Performance Processing. The Intel Atom Processor is around 1.2GHz with intel's Hyper Threading technology, optimized to run Android apps, fast web browsing, High performance video and imaging. Great graphics for casual gamers, now I'm not all to worried about the graphics for gaming on my smartphone, cause I wouldn't use it all that much for gaming, unless that's all I had for mobile gaming.


Free WiFi for all

Wouldn't life be great if you could be connected to WiFi in your neighborhood,town,city or for that matter anywhere you Go! I will jump for joy the day free wifi is everywhere and not just in select business's. Well that day may be sooner for one neighborhood! Google is said to be helping to set up a Free WiFi Blanket in a NYC neighborhood! (Lucky)

Apple+HTC=Better Phones? You Decide!

In the latest reports published by HTC themselves it seems that their recent licensing agreement with Apple back in November will allow HTC to make better phones to sell!
The new deal which was done in November allows HTC to view latest Apple technology that no other Android manufacturer can see or use! But this all does come at a cost as HTC must pay a monthly fee to Apple on top of a lump sum of cash to seal the deal which had been raging on for many weeks.
The China President of HTC, Ray Yam states that: “The biggest benefit to us is that we can put more energy into innovation, which is more important than anything else for a technology company." This is good news for HTC as even their top handsets including the likes of the HTC One X+, HTC 8X and 8S are all solid devices but none of them are able to compete with the onslaught of Samsung and Apple devices which dominate the market. The market that used to be full of HTC!
So what does this all mean for consumers in 2013? Well it means that people can now look forward to hopefully better quality handsets from HTC which at the moment are struggling to hold on to what very little market share they have with dwindling profits! So keep your eyes peeled in 2013 because this year could be even bigger than 2012 and hopefully some nice suprises from HTC!
