UNISYS TRIQUINT SEMICONDUCTOR TRIMBLE NAVIGATION LIMITED TRIDENT MICROSYSTEMS
While Sony may have created some excitement in the last seven days with all their IFA announcements, for owners of some of the 2011 Xperia devices on O2 UK there is less cause for celebration.
The British carrier has decided to block the update to Ice Cream Sandwich for three Xperia devices, the Arc, Ray and Neo. Despite Sony themselves having already released the updates for unlocked versions of all three devices, O2 claims that performance issues have caused them to block the update for their customers.
They claim that Android 4.0 affected the devices' speed and performance, and since it didn't meet their requirements, O2 customers with one of these devices will remain on Gingerbread.

We first saw the ZTE Grand X in July in London, where the Tegra 2-powered smartphone was billed as a mid-range gaming-focused handset. Fast forward a couple of months, and we've come across a new variant at the Intel booth at IFA 2012 in Berlin. The ZTE Grand X IN closely resembles its Tegra 2-powered brother, except lurking inside this model is an Intel Atom Z2460 CPU, making it one of the few Intel-powered Android 4.x handsets out there.
The only cosmetic difference is the "Intel Inside" badge on the device's rear -- aside from that, it's identical to the version we saw in England in July. On the software side, it's still running Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich, with only a few custom additions from ZTE. The software remains mostly stock on the Intel-powered version, though obviously some of the Tegra-powered extras are absent on this model.
Check out our hands-on video above. The ZTE Grand X IN should ve hitting store shelves sometime in Q3.

While Apple improved their alert system with Notification Center in iOS 5, they're finally bringing some sanity and serenity to it with iOS 6. Too much notification turns into interruption, especially if your only options are to answer or hang up, to leave everything on or turn everything off. It makes us the single-points of failure in our memory chain, and let's face it, why bother having these fancy devices if we're the ones who have to remember to call back, or remember to activate and deactivate alerts every morning and night. Which brings us to Remind Me Later and Do Not Disturb.
Here's how Apple describes them:
iOS 6 adds new calling features to your iPhone. Now when you decline an incoming call, you can instantly reply with a text message or set a callback reminder. And when things are just too hectic, turn on Do Not Disturb and you won’t be bothered by anyone — except can’t-miss contacts like your boss or your better half.
And here's what we've seen of it so far:
When Do Not Disturb is active, you'll see a special half-moon icon on your status bar to the left of the time.
You have granular control over Do Not Disturb settings. You can turn it on and off manually, for example, when going into a meeting. You can also schedule an automatic time range, for example, every night during your regular sleep hours.
You can enable exceptions to Do Not Disturb, to allow calls from certain contacts, including everyone on your Favorites list, or a specific contacts Group.
You can also enable an exception for repeated calls, in case of emergency. That means if someone thinks it's urgent enough to call you back a second time within 3 minutes, that second call will come through.
Overall, these are terrific additions to iOS' communications and notification handling. It doesn't go as far as true profiles, for example, location-based profiles that automatically change a range of settings including notification, network, security, etc. when you're at home vs. at work, or more rounded bedside mode, but it's a start.
iOS 6 is scheduled for release this fall, perhaps as soon as September 19. For more on iOS 6, check out:

L1 IDENTITY SOLUTIONS KINGSTON TECHNOLOGY COMPANY KEY JDS UNIPHASE
Apple has model numbers for all their products. The original iPhone was iPhone 1,1. The iPhone 3G was iPhone 1,2. The current iPhone 4S is iPhone 4,1. The next iPhone will be iPhone 5,1. Likewise, the original iPad was iPad 1,1. The iPad 2 was iPad 2,1. And the new iPad is iPad 3,1. The Retina MacBook Pro is MacBookPro 10,1. Following pre-production code names, that's how Apple classifies things internally.
Within models, there are variants. The iPhone 3G was a radio variant of the original iPhone 1,1 but was fairly similar otherwise, hence iPhone 1,2. The iPhone 3GS got a whole new chipset, so also got a new, model bump to 2,1. Likewise, the iPad 2 was a leap ahead of the original, so it got iPad 2,1. At least the Wi-Fi version did. The GSM/AT&T version got iPad 2,2 and the CDMA/Verizon version got iPad 2,3. When Apple updated the internals again this spring for the newer, lower cost version, that variant was iPad 2,4.
iPad 2,5 has been showing up in developer logs for months and iPad 2,6 was noted yesterday by Marco Arment on Marco.org. So what are they?
Marco thinks they may be the iPad mini. Since we've already seen that Apple doesn't consider something like a boost in radio technology from 2G/EDGE (iPhone 1,1 -- the original iPhone) to 3G/HSPA (iPhone 1,2 -- the iPhone 3G) to be worth a full model number increment, but they do consider the switch from an Apple A4 chipset (iPhone 3,1 -- the iPhone 4) to an Apple A5 chipset (iPhone 4,1 -- the iPhone 4S) to be increment worthy. Marco's thinking seems to be, given the iPad mini will likely use all the components of the iPad 2, only shrunken down -- something iMore reported on back in May -- that Apple might just keep using the iPad 2 model series as well.
iPad 2,5 would then be the iPad mini Wi-Fi, with 2,6 being AT&T/GSM, and theoretically we'd also see 2,7 for Verizon/CDMA, and perhaps other models for other regional radios.
So where does that leave 4G LTE networking? The iPad 2 doesn't currently include a 4G LTE radio the way the iPad 3 does. Would Apple stick to the same HSPA+ and CDMA radios in the existing iPad 2? Not necessarily.
We've already seen that Apple doesn't increment models a full number just for radio changes. So, if Apple is shrinking down the iPad 2 internals and re-packaging them into the relatively narrower iPad mini case, they could easily include LTE for both AT&T/GSM and Verizon in their respective models. And they could likely do so using the same newer, better Qualcomm 28nm MDM9615 chip that's expected to hit the iPhone 5 this September, and perhaps more products soon thereafter.
Alternatives for iPad 2,5 and iPad 2,6 could include yet more tweaks for the existing iPad 2. iMore did learn Apple was planning to push the new, miniature Dock connector out across their complete iOS product line, but we didn't learn anything to specifically indicate older products like the iPad 2 and iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, and iPhone 4S would be getting them as well. A Dock connector alone might not be worth a new variant indicator anyway. (There's no precedent for that on iOS devices, so it's harder to predict.)
Would Apple really launch an entirely new product in the iPad mini as part of the year-old iPad 2 model line? Wouldn't an all new iPadmini 1,1, 1,2, 1,3, etc. be cleaner and less confusing? These are Apple internal designations that consumers can only find by clicking their way deep into product information inspectors. That means Apple will do whatever is cleaner and less confusing for them not for us.
And we'll find out what that is this fall...
