Businesses implementing Android apps can learn from what Web developers have done to handle browser variations, to handle the similar variations in Android OS versions. In this first post of a three-post series, we will examine what Web developers have done to simplify their development efforts and what the Android analogues are.

Cell Phones : [ HM7000 Bluetooth Headset ] HM7000 Bluetooth Headset
If you want a headset that is ultra-slim, ultra-capable, and ultra-convenient, then meet your match: the Samsung HM7000 Bluetooth® headset. So sleek that you just may forget you’re wearing a headset, the HM7000 packs a powerful feature set, including voice commands and voice prompts, Android™ application support, and a revolutionary mobile charging cradle/carrying case.
The HM7000 is accompanied by an ingenious companion: a charging cradle and carrying case all in one. When fully charged, this device can offer two to three times the amount of battery life of the HM7000 itself, protecting and charging your Bluetooth® headset while you're on the go.

SQLCipher for Android, and You!
Full-disk encryption is fine as far as it goes, but it does not go quite as far as you might think in terms of defending your data. If you are considering encryption at the application level, in addition to the device level, SQLCipher for Android makes it easy for you to add AES-256 encryption to your local databases.
GooPhone and LG to offer first tri-SIM smartphones using MediaTek chips
Dual-SIM phones are handy in regions where international travel and prepaid service are common, but even those devices aren't always enough for jetsetters. Thankfully, GooPhone and LG have come to those customers' rescue by launching the first smartphones based on a new MediaTek Triple-SIM chip. Both the leaked GooPhone X1+ (shown above) and a just-shipped variant of the Optimus L4 II (after the break) can juggle three phone lines without a big hit to battery life. Neither tri-SIM phone is high-end: the X1+ reportedly carries a 5-inch FWVGA display and a dual-core MT6572 processor, while the L4 II sports a 3.8-inch HVGA screen and an unnamed 1GHz chip. Despite those limitations, we suspect the handsets will be vital to anyone who'd rather not switch SIMs when crossing the border. LG's phone is already on sale in Brazil, while the GooPhone X1+ should ship to multiple countries within the next several days.
