Mobile Electronics Aren’t Just For Cars Anymore – Audio, Video, and More For Any Vehicle! December 4, 2009

When you hear the phrase “mobile electronics” you probably assume that it’s car audio. But today the world of car audio and mobile electronics encompasses so much more than just cars and a lot more than just stereos. From yachts to classic cars to Power Wheels, the full range of mobile electronics is ideal for whatever vehicle you drive!

While some car audio shops are stuck in the past, simply turning up the volume on stock stereos with subwoofers, many are expanding their installations to creative, innovative applications. Mobile video, iPod integration, and even in car TV are all growth areas in car enhancement, but smart shops are also broadening their customer base by branching out into servicing other types of vehicles.

For example, marine electronics is a rapidly growing area for many installers, with wakeboarding set-ups and marine video being increasingly popular. Others are reaching out into niche markets like motorcycle sound systems. I’ve even heard of a car electronics shop that tricked out a Power Wheels with some serious speakers and blue neon.

In the end, the market for souped up Power Wheels is probably pretty small, but it illustrates just how innovative today’s mobile electronics can be. If you’re interested in customizing any vehicle-and I do mean any vehicle at all-contact your local car audio shop. Skilled installers should be able to equip just about any ride with car electronics, and a creative team may even be able to help you design a custom array. From four-wheelers to power riding toys to motorcycles, boats, and cars, with today’s high-tech equipment, the sky really is the limit for mobile electronics installation. With the help of your car customization shop, you can turn just about anything into the vehicle of your dreams!  Upgrade Phone – Upgrade mobile phone handsets and tariff plans, switch to better plan or mobile from your existing one.  Mobile Phone Deals -Get mobile phones, cheap phones with free gifts at price comparison mobile phone deals UK.

 

Nokia’s aeon “full surface screen” cellphone concept November 21, 2009

Nokia’s research and development team have kicked it up a gear with an attractive “aeon” concept phone showing up in the R&D section of the company’s website. The most prominent design feature of aeon is a touchscreen that stretches over the full surface area of the phone, similar to BenQ-Siemens’s Black box concept phone we saw recently.

Currently mobile technology isn’t quite up to realizing this fantasy, but we’ll sleep better tonight knowing that at least one of the cellphone industry’s biggest names shares the same dream as we do — BenQ’s dream didn’t count, unfortunately.
