This permits a smaller pit to be etched on the media surface compared to CDs (0.74 µm for DVD versus 1.5 µm for CD), allowing in part for DVD's increased storage capacity. This all means much faster memory and bigger capacity than " old school" VHS.

Apple Iphone

Development

The biggest change in technology happed at mobile industrie. New cell phone called originally Iphone or later on Iphone 2G. First cell with touchscreen designed and marketed by Apple Inc.. It was introduced in the United States on June 29, 2007. It featured quad- band Global system for Mobile communication ( GSM) with general packet service ( GPRS) and enhanced data rates for GSM Evolution ( EDGE) . Steve Jobs idea was to connect phone with computer in a way in which he could type directly onto the display, esentially removing the physical keyboard and mouse. Jobs recruited a group of Apple engineers to investigate the idea as a side project. The entire project began in 2005 and was called Project Purple 2.

             Apple created the device during a secretive and unprecedented collaboration with AT&AT.

Jobs said: " I have been looking forward to this for two and a half years" .

Release

The iPhone was released on June 29, 2007 in the United States where thousands of people were reported to have queued outside Apple and AT&AT retail stores days before the device's launch with many stores reporting stock shortages within an hour.

It was later made available in the United Kingdom, France, and Germany in November 2007, and the Republic of Ireland and Austria in the spring of 2008.

Design

The original iPhone's design was centered on a 3.5 inches (89 mm) glass multi- touchscreen display. The original iPhone introduced five physical buttons that have remained consistent over newer generations of iPhone. The device featured a chrome plated metal frame. The back of which was made of aluminum with a black plastic base, required because metal shields cellular and Wi-Fi signals. The camera was located in the upper-left corner of the iPhone's rear. The headphone socket was recessed into the casing, making it incompatible with most headsets without the use of an adapter. Other models do not have this issue.

Software

During release, the iPhone was marketed as running "OS X". The name of the operating system was revealed in the iPhone 2.0 SDK. Apple has released 5 major software versions for the iPhone, including the one bundled with original iPhone units.

Currently, software updates for the original or "2G" and 3G iPhones have been discontinued. However, unlicensed third- parties are known for creating custom firmwares for the iPhone, as well as porting Android OS onto the iPhone.
