<description><![CDATA[Lenovo's top product manager for the popular ThinkPad line says USB 3.0 will go mainstream in 2012, while Intel sees the new Thunderbolt interface gravitating to some high-end nonmainstream laptop models. This week, Lenovo began selling its ThinkPad X1, a 0.85-inch thick (thickest point), 3.8-pound design based on Intel's &quot;Sandy Bridge&quot; Core i5 and i7 processors. Beyond the obvious attractions of a svelte, high-powered laptop, the X1 also sports an increasingly popular USB port based on the &quot;SuperSpeed&quot; 3.0 specification. USB is one of the most widely used connection technologies in the world, found on everything from PCs totablets to printers to smartphones. Peak speeds for USB 3.0 are about 10 times that of USB 2.0, the current standard. &quot;In 2012 USB 3.0 will be a mainstream technology,&quot; Jason Parrish, worldwide product manager for Lenovo ThinkPad, said in a phone interview earlier this week. &quot;And we see 2011 as the transition year for USB 3.0 as it starts to come into more and more products,&quot; he added. Other companies seem to agree. Dell's upcoming XPS 15z will include two USB 3.0 ports. Intel, for its part, has said its support chips--called chipsets--will include USB 3.0 in 2012. The 13.3-inch ultrathin ThinkPad X1 includes a USB 3.0 port. Many, if not most, laptops are expected to follow suit this year and next. And what about Thunderbolt, Intel's new interface, now featured on Apple's MacBooks and iMacs &quot;It's definitely an interesting technology. It's clever to use the same connector as Mini Displayport,&quot; Parrish said. He continued. &quot;There's certainly not a desire to add more ports to a notebook, because it takes up space...We're talking to our customers...And assessing if Thunderbolt is the technology&quot; they need. Beyond today's MacBooks and iMacs, Intel sees Thunderbolt beginning life in the high-end consumer space--not in mainstream systems. &quot;The ecosystem is nascent,&quot; said an Intel representative. One market segment, for example, that may see Thunderbolt ports is ultrathin laptops, whose minimalist designs accommodate only a few connectors, the Intel representative said, echoing Parrish's comment above. Particularly, superthin designs that have thicknesses averaging about 0.7 inches. <br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[This is the message the malware sends in a text to numbers listed in the contacts on the phone.(Credit:Symantec)A malicious Android app that masquerades as a free version of a legitimate app steals data and sends spam text messages and a warning that chastise the user for trying to get around paying for the actual app, Symantec said today. The app, available on several file-sharing sites in North America and Asia that are known as clearinghouses for pirated software, is called Walk and Text. That's also the name of a legitimate app--available on the Android Market for $1.53--that uses a device's camera to let people see what's in front of them as they text while walking. However, the bogus app is labeled as version 1.3.7, which doesn't exist yet, according to a Symantec blog post.  Once the fake software--which Symantec has dubbed &quot;Android.Walkinwat&quot;--is downloaded and running, it displays a dialog box that indicates that the app is in the process of being compromised or cracked, ostensibly to scare the person who thinks they're getting the legitimate app for free. Behind the scenes, the software is gathering sensitive data--including username, phone number, and unique device identifier--and trying to send it to an external server, Symantec says.  The app also sends out a text message (rife with misspellings and errors) to all the numbers listed in the user's contact list: &quot;Hey, just downloaded a pirated App off the Internet, Walk and Text for Android. Im stupid and cheap, it costed only 1 buck.Don't steal like I did!&quot;  The app also displays a message that says &quot;Application Not Licensed&quot; and warns: &quot;We really hope you learned something from this. Check your phone bill') Oh and don't forget to buy the App from the Market.&quot; It includes buttons for buying the app or exiting. The malware displays this antipiracy warning and offers the option to buy the app from the Android Market. (Credit:Symantec)<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>
