iPad Mini Expensive !

Mini iPad was finally introduced by Apple. But with prices starting at U.S. $ 329 for Wi-Fi models of the iPad Mini is considered overpriced.
iPad Mini to come in price ranges that may make people grumble and we were quite worried,” said JMP Securities analyst Alex gauna

It is noteworthy that there is zero margin products compete with them now and present a challenge for Apple,” he said as quoted by Reuters on Wednesday (24/10/2012).
Tablet is like is Amazon Kindle Fire and Google Nexus 7. Both Android tablets were sold for about $ 200 for both Amazon and Google to sell it without a large margin.

Yes, the price is high enough, Apple may indeed enjoy a substantial profit margin. However, quite a lot of people are sensitive to price so might prefer a tablet competitor.
“The price may limit sales. Yet from the perspective of profit, I guess with the price of $ 329, Apple will still get enough margin,” said industry analyst Brian Colello.
But there is also a sure iPad Mini sells. People like to pay a premium price for quality hardware and content and application ecosystem,” said Michael Yoshikami, an analyst at Destination Wealth Management.

Google Maps to Offer Panoramic View of Grand Canyon

 
Google maps has given Internet users street-level views of buildings, roads and parks in more than 3,000 cities in 43 countries, using a special array of car- or tricycle-mounted cameras to capture 360-degree images.  Now it will offer similar views in much less accessible places, starting with the hiking trails of America's Grand Canyon.



The images were taken this week with Trekker, a panoramic camera device mounted on backpacks worn by a team of Google hikers.  The 15 cameras on each Trekker pack capture images every 2.5 seconds, and the pictures are digitally stitched together and posted on the Google Maps site.

The first outing with the 18-kilo Trekker backpack followed the Bright Angel Trail from the canyon rim down to the Colorado River, and back up on the South Kaibab Trail.  Google says the panoramic images will be available in a few weeks.

Google officials say they hope to eventually deploy the Trekker to the narrow streets of Venice, ancient ruins and castles, and important wilderness sites around the world, including national forests and even Mount Everest.

Faces of any hikers on the trail will be blurred to ensure privacy.  Google has faced criticism, and in some cases, prosecution, for collecting private data as its Street View cameras gathered images in Europe and Australia.

Things you should know during LET exam

As I have already experienced taking the teacher's board (Licensure Examination for Teachers), I would like to share this facts you should know about this board examination. It is advised that you should read first my Point of View article. These things are the following:




1. You may not wear a White Shirt w/ CollarEven it is stipulated in your notice of admission that you should follow the dress code, examinees who are not in proper dress code are not noticed by the proctors. Hmmm, maybe it depends on the proctor.


2. You may not bring a Pack Lunch. Before the exam will begin, there were persons who will visit the rooms and ask you  to have a pack lunch at P50.00.


3. You should bring foods for your Merienda. Yes, you should. If not, you will experienced more headache. :-). Because of foods and water intake while taking the exam, you can think and analyze better than you haven't.


4. You should bring a Non-Programmable Calculator. I brought a standard calculator where I have only the 4-fundamental operations of Mathematics. Haha! It's funny when I realize that we are allowed to use Scientific Calculator. Hmm... But you should know the list of calculators which are allowed by PRC. If your calculator is not in the list, you will not be allowed to use it. Thus, you will have hard time answering the Mathematics portion of the General Education of the exam.


5. You should never forget to bring NOA, OR, and Window Envelope. These are the main requirements you must have for you to be allowed to take the exam: Notice of Admission (Admission Tab), Official Receipt of Payment, and Window Envelop with metered stamp.


6. You should maximize your Time. Prior to this exam, you should take more practice drills with time pressure. You should answer each item at most 40-45 seconds. Avoid staying too long in an item. It is better to skip the item unanswered, and go back to it.
