Apple reported lower than expected iPhone and Mac sales in its third quarter 2016 financial results. While mobile phones were first introduced in 1973, smartphones emerged in 2007 with the launch of the original iPhone, which popularized the smartphone and sold over 6 million units in its first year. Since then, Apple has significantly improved and released new iPhone models each year, selling over 40 million iPhones in a single quarter. The document then provides a history of smartphones from 1994 to 2013, highlighting key innovations and models from companies like IBM, Nokia, Ericsson, Palm, Blackberry, HTC, Samsung, Motorola and Apple.

The cellular phone has dramatically changed how we communicate, and it has connected us more than ever before. While cell phones are now must-have devices, they weren’t always as accessible. Previously, their high cost made them more of a status symbol than a standard, everyday tool.
Apple Inc. has a contour of planned and marketed phone series known as iPhone. The ever first
mobile phone from Apple.co (iPhone) was launched on 29th June 2007.

9.1 Mobile Phones
Years ago, if you were away from your phone or office you had to look for a pay phone. For a dime, you could make a telephone call that lasted a few minutes. Pay phones were ubiquitous, with several often lined up in a row at heavily populated public places. Sometimes, there was an actual phone booth with a folding glass door that enabled people to make phone calls in relative privacy. The comic book hero Superman made these famous as the place he transformed from Clark Kent to the superhero. But today, the pay phone and the phone booth are little more than a memory. Now, calling from the road is as easy as reaching into your pocket.
Smartphones
One of the most significant new computing devices in the last few decades is the smartphone. During the 1990s, three major technological developments gained popularity. First, were cell phones and their service plans, which became much less expensive. By the end of the decade, almost everyone had one. Second, a new type of electronic device emerged at the same time called the PDA or Personal Digital Assistant. These small, handheld computers, initially sold by Palm and Visor, offered calendars, datebooks, organizational software, and gaming applications. Third, laptops were increasingly able to surf the Internet, provided their owners could locate a Wi-Fi hotspot. As email became more essential, laptops were often carried just to check email. By the end of the 1990s, businessmen and women were often lugging around all three devices to remain as productive as possible. Could all three merge into one?
This dream was realized in 2004, when the BlackBerry® smartphone was introduced for AT&T and T-Mobile cell service. A smartphone combined the features of a PDA with a cell phone and the ability to check email. It also served as a flash drive, media player for music and video, and picture viewer. And it added a QWERTY keyboard, with keys that were smaller but laid out in the same configuration as a standard computer keyboard. Soon, other competitors emerged and BlackBerry® quickly lost market share, most notably to the Apple® iPhone®, of which 6 million were sold in 2007, its first year on the market (http://www.statista.com/statistics/12743/worldwide-AppleiPhone-sales-since-3rd-quarter-2007/).
iPhone®
Apple®'s eagerly awaited iPhone® capitalized on the huge following it had established with its iPod® handheld music and video players and Macintosh® computers. Duplicating the same elegance and user-friendliness with its iPhone®, Apple® began to dominate the market, as its iPhone® App Store℠ enabled users to download applications that fit their own unique needs. TIME™ Magazine named it as the invention of the year in 2007. In 2009, the iPhone® 3.0 included a camera, 3G connection speeds, and voice control. At the same time, Apple® also improved the iPhone®'s GPS functionality. In 2012, the iPhone® 4S came in 16- to 64-GB memory options, with prices between .

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

grown, with constant developments and improvements being made however, the real
change to the industry hit in 2007- when the first IPhone bought the smartphone epidemic
to light. The IPhone 1st generation sold 6.1 million units and since then has been improved
and rereleased to the point where it has now revolutionized the smartphone industry, with
new models released every year and Apple now selling 40.4 million iPhone units in a quarter
of a year.
