 At a 10th anniversary event for the Ace Attorney series in Tokyo, Capcom officially announced Ace Attorney 5, revealing the above logo. No specifics about the game were offered, including date, platform, or characters -- and there's no character silhouette in the logo to show us who the star is. All we know is that there is one, and we have to start presenting our case for a localization to Capcom.
The event also brought a small amount of news relating to Professor Layton Vs. Ace Attorney for 3DS: the animated cutscenes are produced by anime studio Bones, and the game is due sometime this year. Famitsu has screens from one of these cutscenes, of Phoenix and Maya on a plane ride.
Finally, new HD versions of the first three Ace Attorneys will be released on iOS. Check this Famitsu article for screens of the newly refreshed sprites.

Newell: Mobile is changing the way people consume media
Valve Software as released a new mobile application that allows Steam customers to access their account on the go.
The mobile app allows users to browse game catalogues, interact with friends and stay up to date on new items rolling into the Steam store.
"The Steam app comes from many direct requests from our customers," said company president Gabe Newell
"Seeing which of your friends are online and playing a game, sending quick messages, looking at screenshots for an upcoming game, or catching a sale - these are all features customers have requested.
“Mobile is changing way people interact, play games and consume media, and the Steam app is part of our commitment to meet customer demands and expand the service functionality of Steam to make it richer and more accessible for everyone."

Compared to just six per cent for Android.
Apple's iPad received record breaking sales in of 15.4 million in Q4 2011 and it seems to have struck a chord with businesses, according to enterprise mobile solutions provider Good Technology.
The report says the iPad and iPad 2 were the clear leaders for tablets activated among Good's clients with 96 per cent. The remaining six per cent opted for Android tablets revealing the Samsung Galaxy Tab to be the most popular.
Results show that of the top ten industries types covered by Good, iPads were activated most in financial services, business/professional services and life sciences. Financial services alone accounted for 42 per cent of activations.
The most popular enterprise smartphone activations among Good's clients show 65 per cent for iPhones 4 and 4S, while Android accounted for 35 per cent with devices such as the Galaxy S II.
John Herrema, Good Technology’s SVP Corporate Strategy, said: "As we expected, iPhone activations slowed in Q3 in anticipation of the iPhone 4S and then jumped significantly immediately after its launch, with 31 percent of Q4 activations coming from that device alone.

Research firm Strategy Analytics says overall global smartphone shipments rose by 54 per cent across the year to reach a record figure of 155 million devices shipped in Q4 2011.
In October we reported that Samsung had become the world's top smartphone vendor for Q3, which was presumed to have been because customers were waiting for the iPhone 4S.
It turns out that was accurate. Apple has now become the top smartphone maker for the fourth quarter with 24 per cent of the market share, according to the report. Apple's worldwide shipments grew by 128 per cent as it sold 37 million iPhones, its highest number to date.
Neil Mawston, executive director at Strategy Analytics, said: "While Apple took the top spot in smartphones on a quarterly basis, Samsung became the market leader in annual terms for the first time with 20 percent global share during 2011.
"With global smartphone shipments nearing half a billion units in 2011, Samsung is now well positioned alongside Apple in a two-horse race at the forefront of one of the world’s largest and most valuable consumer electronics markets."

If you’re going to build a giant touch screen, why not use an OS that is designed for touch interfaces, like Android? [Colin] had the same idea, so he connected his phoneto a projector and a Kinect.
Video is carried from [Colin]‘s Galaxy Nexus to the projector via an MHL connection. Getting the Kinect to work was a little more challenging, though. The Kinect is connected to a PC running Simple Kinect Touch. The PC converts the data from the Kinect into TUIO commands that are received using TUIO for Android.
In order for the TUIO commands to be recognized as user input, [Colin] had to compile his own version of Android. It was a lot of work, but using an OS designed for touch interface seems much better than all the other touch screen hacks that start from the ground up.
You can check out [Colin]‘s demo after the break. Sadly, there are no Angry Birds.

Back in July 2010, the United Stated government approved few exemptions in a federal law which made jailbreaking/rooting of electronic devices(iPhones and Android devices) legal. The court ruling stated that every three years, the exemptions have to be renewed considering they don't infringe any copyrighted material. The three year period is due to expire and Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is looking to get the exemptions renewed. In order to do so, they have filed a petition which aims at government to declare jailbreaking legal once again. In addition to that, EFF is also asking for a change in the original ruling to include tablet devices.

It's been a while, so here's some more speculation around a summer launch.
9to5Mac says it's spoken to a Foxconn employee who says a new iPhone is ready for production.
There are multiple design options floating about apparently, but none has been finalised. However, the story does specify that the device will have a four inch plus display and a symmetrical form factor (as opposed to teardrop-shaped).
It also asserts that the design will be different from iPhone 4/4S.
This source is the same that indicated to 9to5Mac (correctly) that the iPhone 5 was not happening last year as was widely speculated.
Does that make this accurate? God knows.

According to the latest research from Strategy Analytics, Android is improving its presence in tablets, taking its share in Q4 to a record 39 per cent. It nearly tripled shipments from 10.5m to 27m in a year.
Good, but still some way behind iOS's 58 per cent. And don't forget, that's for just one device against dozens of Androids.
On a generic level, tablets surged spectacularly. Global shipments hit 66.9 million units in full year 2011, growing 260 per cent from 18.6 million in 2010.
However, one giant company yet to make any real impact is Microsoft, which captured a one per cent global tablet share in Q4 2011. All eyes are now on Windows 8.
Peter King, Director at Strategy Analytics, said" “Global tablet shipments reached an all-time high of 26.8 million units in Q4 2011, surging 150 percent from 10.7 million in Q4 2010.

Soars from 30 per cent to 45 per cent per capita between February and October 2011.
New stats from Google and Ipsos reveal a global surge from feature phones to smartphones, but show that it's the Brits that have embraced the switch with the most ardour.
In the period between Jan/Feb 2011 and Sept/Oct 2011 smartphone penetration reached 45 per cent in the UK, 38 per cent in the US and France, 23 per cent in Germany and 17 per cent in Japan.
The study also said more consumers in the US, UK, Germany, France and Japan use a mobile phone (feature phone or smartphone) than a computer (desktop or laptop).
Other key findings include:
* Germany saw the biggest increase with the percentage of smartphone owners using their device for daily Internet access jumping from 39 per cent to 49 per cent
* Japan had the highest percentage accessing the Internet daily on their smartphone at 88 per cent
* A little over two-thirds of smartphone users in the US and over half of smartphone users in the UK access the mobile Internet daily.
* Across all five countries approximately 75% of smartphone owners said they continued to use their computer to access the Internet daily.
* Tablet usage increased across all five countries with the highest penetration amongst the total population in the US at 11 per cent
* Smartphone usage among females increased in all five countries
* Smartphone ownership also rose among those aged 45+ in the US, UK and France

Landmark reached ten years after launch of 7210.
Series 40 is the platform powering Nokia's entry-level devices. Nokia says the first Series 40 phone was the Nokia 7110, which was developed in 1999, but we think it's actually the 7210, launched in 2002.
Anyhow, S40 has evolved and is still going strong as a 'Smartphone Lite' platform powering - among others - the new Nokia Asha range targeted at emerging markets.
Series 40 phones add to the confusion around what is and what is not a smartphone. Most people would describe them as feature phones, but the new versions offer Nokia Maps, browser, web apps, Nokia Money and Nokia Life Tools.
The 1.5 billionth device was purchased from a Magazine Luiza store in São Paulo by 21-year-old Mayara Rodrigues.
Mary McDowell, EVP for mobile phones at Nokia, said: "We are incredibly proud to reach this milestone. Having 1.5 billion Series 40 devices sold is a hard-to-reach mark, let alone one attainable in a single line of products.

Tough old slog ahead for the OS despite Nokia support.
New stats from market watch Kantar Worldpanel ComTech suggest that the Microsoft OS is still struggling for mindshare among the world's smartphone consumers.
Nowhere does it have more than two per cent, and the Nokia Lumia 800 finished quarter four just outside of the top ten smartphones sold in the UK.
Elsewhere the data says Android retained the global smartphone crown, but that Apple is now growing at a faster rate
In the latest 12 weeks of sales, Android had the biggest share in most countries and even went past 60 per cent in Germany.
Apple did best in the US, where its share was at 44.9 per cent while Android took 44.8 per cent. iPhone 4S also helped Apple increase its share of the British smartphone market from 22 per cent a year ago to 34 per cent.

We touched on the numbers in our report on Apple's Q1 earnings, but the company's throwing out a lot of "record" figures so we thought we'd take a moment to focus on just how its hardware sales stack up. The standout number is, of course, the 37.04 million iPhones sold during the quarter, which is up 128 percent from the same quarter a year ago (and up from 17 million in the previous quarter, a jump of 117 percent). That notably puts Apple back ahead of Samsung, which sold a total of 35 million total smartphones in its most recent quarter. And as if that wasn't enough, Apple's Tim Cook also said on the company's earnings call that it could have sold even more if it had more supply.
iPad sales also set a new record with 15.43 million units sold during the quarter, which is a 111 percent jump from the 7.3 million sold a year ago, and a 39 percent increase from the 11.1 million moved in Q4 2011. Once again, however, iPods are the one category that continues to decline in the face of the growth of smartphones. Apple sold a total of 15.4 million iPods -- over half of which were iPod touches -- which represents a 21 percent decline from the 19.4 million sold a year ago. The holiday shopping season did boost sales considerably from the 6.6 million sold in the previous quarter, though.
Mac sales were also on the upswing, totaling 5.2 million units -- a 26 percent increase year-over-year. Breaking things down further, that translates to 1.48 million desktops (including iMac, Mac Mini and Mac Pro), and 3.7 million laptops (including the basic MacBook, MacBook Air and MacBook Pro). As for the company's "hobby," the Apple TV, it rang up 1.4 million in sales for the quarter, and 2.8 million for the 2011 fiscal year. Fans of charts can get their fix after the break.

An anonymous reader writes in with one of many articles about the iBooks EULA, this time questioning whether it is even enforceable. Quoting:"The iBooks Author EULA plainly tries to create an exclusive license for Apple to be the sole distributor of any worked created with it, but under the Copyright Act an exclusive license is a 'transfer of copyright ownership,' and under 17 U.S.C. 204 such a transfer 'is not valid unless an instrument of conveyance, or a note or memorandum of the transfer, is in writing and signed by the owner of the rights conveyed.' When authors rebel and take their work elsewhere, Apple has, at most, a claim for breach-of-EULA — but their damages are the failure to pay $0 for the program."

The team behind the popular alternative Android firmware CyanogenMod are to launch an alternative App Store to focus on apps that require root access and apps which are removed from the official Marketplace "for no good reason."
Koushik Dutta, the author of ClockworkMod and ROM Manager, wrote in Google+ post: "We also need an app store for apps that are getting shut down for no good reason, other than carrier, or some random corporation doesn't like it."
Some of the apps that had been removed from the official Android Marketplace include "one click root apps, emulators, tether apps, Visual Voicemail apps, and more," Dutta said, adding that a portion of app sales would instead go towards funding the CyanogenMod project.
The idea was greeted warmly by Google+ users. Dutta also revealed that CyanogenMod would soon pass a million installed users of the third-party OS, linking a statistics page which indeed now shows more than a million. "This is huge," he said.

Even though everyone with a smart phone has a small, powerful computer in their pocket, we haven’t seen many applications of this portable processing power that use the built-in camera. [Michael] decided to change this and built an LED matrix that displays the data coming from the phone’s camera.
For the build, [Michael] used two 32×32 LED panels from Adafruit along with an IOIOand an Arduino. To build the Android app, [Michael] used the Android OpenCV computer vision library that grabs an image from the Android camera and downsamples it to 64×32 pixels. This data is transferred over a serial connection from the phone to the IOIO and again from the IOIO to the Arduino. Even though each frame is 1024 bytes, [Michael] still gets around four frames per second on his LED matrix display.
After the break you can check out the results of [Michael]‘s build. The video is a little choppy because of the frame rate issue, but it’s still an interesting build in the Android software development category.
