Japanese teens are getting more and more addicted to Internet accessible cell phones, including iPods and iPhones. The government is introducing a program to warn parents and schools to restrict the use of the devices among children.

Alarm: Japan Suffers Cell Phone AddictionThe government is concerned about how students are getting involved into cyberspace crimes and spending more and more time exchanging mobile e-mail and applications. In fact, there are lots of negative effects of cell phone overuse.

In Japan parents give cell phones to their children and don’t give it enough thought, and the cost of the toy is getting more expensive.

So the new recommendations of the educational reform panel were approved this week by Prime Minister’s administration. The educational panel asks Japanese iPod and iPhone developers to make phones only for talking and GPS navigation to ensure a child’s safety.

Almost all cell phones in Japan are offering 3G high-speed Internet access, so accessing it is not a problem at all. The educational panel said to filter programs in a proper way to protect children.

Some teens are spending long hours every night on e-mail, interacting with their friends. The amazing thing is that if a child doesn’t respond to e-mail within 30 minutes, he gets targeted and other schoolmates pick him on.

Other youngsters may become victims of I-net crimes. For instance, a child sends in profile snapshots for some Web site and ends up getting threatened for money.
Parents usually rely on cell phones so that to keep in touch with children when they commute long distances to schools. Cell phone fees per child are usually paid for about $39 or 4,000 yen a month.

Apple Will Use Solar Power To Charge iPhone

Apple have signed a patent, according to which solar cells will be integrated into portable devices. The cells will be placed beneath the layers of a touch-sensitive display.

Solar power is believed to make devices really portable, with no need for wires to connect to a power supply.

Apple Will Use Solar Power To Charge iPhone

The large panels are required for generating electricity from solar panels. “Solar cells on portable devices” patent claims, that only a little space is left for solar cells after allowing area for buttons and screens. The way out suggested is to stack a display, touch-sensitive layer and a solar panel on top of one another. That can make Apple’s iPhone touch be pretty good for this power supply, as the screen makes almost the entire face.

The idea of solar powered charging in iPhone and iPod touch is starting to be popular. When Vodafone planned in April to cut down on its emissions of CO2 greenhouse gase by 50 percent by 2020, it also planned to introduce solar-powered and universal phone chargers for Vodafone-branded handsets.

The technique described by Apple is obviousely interesting. The solar panel will absorb ambient light through the display of the device. And if that would come to life, Apple’s iPhone will require no global changes in design to get some solar power wireless.

But this patent does not mean that Apple will actually develop the trend. That’s good for the way they are looking at innovative development for future products, but not yet realizable.

Solar charge development of itself was a major step in science and technology, and now it is possible to to plan the future of portable iPhones and iPods to solarcharge them without any separate accessories or a bulk.

New File Sharing Application For iPhone

Finally iPhone users can enjoy a file sharing application, the celestial jukebox for the iPhone and iPod touch. Now available via P2P.

iSlsk offers owners of jailbroken iPhones to share music at high speed on the Soulseek network. As soon as songs are downloaded, the application imports them right into the iPhone’s song library to playback easily.

WiFi Download speed is around 20 Kbps, while other networks like AT&T’s, deliverNew File Sharing Application For iPhone songs from Soulseek at 10 Kbps.

Yet an early beta mode of the iSlsk application is avaliable, and the developers are still working out some kinks. There is an error message some people have encountered: the FireWire GUID can’t be recognized and music importing is not available. But again, this is only early beta software version, so install it at your own risk. Soon there will be issued fixed versions to offer increased stability.

iSlsk developer Eric Castro says he set up the development in February to enable people and himself to download from Soulseek on theiPhone. He saw the various capabilities the iPhone had and then thought that lots of new applications were added every day and that making a good one for the iPhone shouldn’t be so difficult. He thought it would be useful to have a P2P client, so he started learning and developing.

That sounds interesting enough to try it out for free. But you need to have an unlocked iPhone or iPod touch to get iSlsk started.
