This past Monday while one of the drivers was cleaning the vehicle getting ready for its next ride he left the door open. While he was wiping down the side door the limo was hijacked and stolen around 4:30 p.m. Immediately Hamilton Limo owner Marcus, called On Star and the police, where they were able to track the exact location of the vehicle. Without high pursuit, they were able to see where it was at all times. When it came to an off-ramp and the police were waiting. The ability of the vehicle and the police were able to kill the engine and lock the doors keeping the perpetrator inside. A big warm round of applause to our First Responders and further the ability to comprehend someone with the technology we have.

Cell phones are turning into razor blades. With more cameras becoming the selling teacher. But the clarity and capability of what I can do is amazing. In addition. They also launched the ability on their phones to have fingerprint scanning anywhere on the screen. This was rumored to come out with some of the updates in Samsung and possibly Apple but it appears the China manufacturer beat everyone to the punch.https://www.t3.com/news/huawei-beats-samsung-note-9-to-an-in-display-fingerprint-readerThere is a new Fork on the market, that actually is a bit clunky but does one thing we all get annoyed by. Removes the sound of you slurping when you eat. Couple noodle created a fork that actually will drown the sound of you slurping noodles or soup. Now you can be lazy and rude and your device will remove all your loud noises at the dinner table.https://mashable.com/2017/10/29/ramen-fork/#5zreUPZosuq4Ever wonder if smartphones are actually heating up the planet? There’s a lot of research going into smartphones right now considering that there’s over a billion on the planet. What’s also interesting is what are cell phones doing to Global Climate Change specifically with carbon emissions. We have a carbon tax on our fuel but when you think about it there are more cell phones, servers that generate more carbon emissions then all the cars combined. Keep in mind the emissions won’t be caused by the actual product itself but from the production of them. If you factor in manufacturing, energy for mining the material and all the rare elements. Not to mention the constant plans and upgrade every year for us to upgrade. Maybe were taxing the wrong thing? When you think about it all the data centers that are required to operate to keep all of them working And keep in mind as well only 1% of smartphones are being recycled.Remember when Amazon had the fire smartphone. They couldn’t even give it away at $50 a phone. It was running off an Android operating system. That was a few years ago, and all the sudden Amazon has grown in such a way with Alexa that we can expect to see a new smartphone coming to market. It will integrate its voice system along with all the features you expect in a smartphone. Samsung may have its biggest competitor yet.https://www.zdnet.com/article/alexa-smartphone-amazons-next-strike-in-the-mobile-iot-war/Apple’s folding iPhone has been officially announced and we can expect to see it within the next year. Probably launched before 2020 This could be a game-changer where we usually see Samsung coming to market first. This might be something we see from Apple.https://www.forbes.com/sites/jaymcgregor/2018/03/26/samsungs-galaxy-x-wont-get-a-headstart-over-apple/#23fdbb803583We talked about a lot of smart products and I believe we mentioned a smart pillow in the past.

Here is something for you to consider, Facebook has been tracking you even if you don’t have an account. When people had uploaded their contacts it actually was sending information regardless if you had a Facebook account or not into its system. You might want to change browsers if you want to get rid of that tracking problem. Firefox, the creators Modzilla alternative to Google Chrome now has an extension that will prevent Facebook ever from tracking you.https://newsstand.google.com/articles/CAIiEDeq9KZ_UQhepWrHvBgbM2wqGAgEKg8IACoHCAowhO7OATDh9CgwvaadAgBlackberry is making money and primarily through the courtrooms.
