Hello everyone! The month of September has
already arrived; and with all the events that the major IT companies are lining
up that will probably start next week, the next few days can certainly be
considered as the calm before the storm.
So what actually are we expecting this
month of September from the tech industry? Here’s a quick roundup of what new
products and technology might come in the very near future.
For starters, the second generation of
Amazon’s Kindle Fire is rumoured to be released this month. According to
previous reports, the Kindle Fire 2 will come in either a 7-inch or a 10-inch
variant and will most likely pack quad-core Tegra processors. Of course, the
new Kindle Fire will run on a skinned version of Google’s Android mobile
operating system. The tablet’s specs sheet will most probably put it below the
$200 price range in the direct line of fire with Google’s own Nexus 7 tablet.
Microsoft on the other hand is prepping
their camp for the launch of their newly revamped mobile operating system –
Windows Phone 8. Microsoft has actually built some momentum last week when
Samsung announced its ATIV, and the rest of the crew – Nokia and HTC are sure
to follow.
And last but not the least, the most highly
anticipated event of the year is centred on the new generation of the iPhone.
The announcement is scheduled on September 12 and will mark the end of all
rumours regarding the device. A release date has already been set on September
21 just 9 days after the event.
And that concludes this week’s edition of
Tech Tuesdays on TFL. Tune in again next time for your weekly dose of tech
