Apparently not, but this woman wanted to try anyway…

Despite it’s huge success, not everyone is mesmerized with the iPhone 5, the smartphone which has revolutionized the tech industry and made Apple the company it is today. Unfortunately Apple has inspired their competitors to create a range of similar products, some of which have become successful.
Interesting enough, the Apple iPhone has garnered the “best smartphone” title for the last five years. Although the sixth generation Apple phone still made Consumer Reports’ top smartphone list, it was still ranked as the lowest of the top smartphones.
Consumer Reports has yet to share the numbers behind their findings, users can read the full report in the February issue of Consumer Reports magazine.
The iPhone 5 ranks in the bottom of the top three smartphones for AT&T and Sprint, but it’s not even listed in the top three for Verizon. It received a total score of 77 for AT&T and 75 for Sprint. The other smartphones that made the list were; LG Optimus G (number 1 for AT&T and Sprint), Samsung Galaxy S III (number 1 for T Mobile, number 2 for AT&T and Sprint, number 3 for Verizon),and HTC One S (number 2 for T Mobile).

The creation of SongBooth – an app available from iTunes – by entrepreneur Gregory Lowe II, CEO of LoweKey Media, is taking the “star search” industry to a whole ‘nother level! The app will enable the budding musician to either upload a pre-recorded music video or record a live performance with their iPhone, edit, then share it locally or internationally via social networks like Facebook, SMS, email and eventually Twitter.
Can it get any better!? Hell yaah! – Lowe will soon announce an opportunity for all you musical diamonds-in-the-roughs to compete in, what will be literally, a virtual world-wide competition in March of this year that could net you a single’s deal with Sony Records. Dubbed Project SongBooth, the contest will calculate a winner based on the amount of “likes” an entry receives, including thumbs up from new music heavy-hitters, ”The Thrill’ Miguel (RCA Records) and teen heartthrob Ryan Beatty (OcSkee Entertainment) – both of whom were discovered through online social media themselves. The two will preside as judges for the contest as well as Chuck Creekmore, CEO of allhiphop.com. Stay tuned for my updates on the competition here at ezkool.com.
The SongBooth app, which is absolutely free! is relatively easy to maneuver around in. The videos run virtually buffer free and the app’s operational board consists of a six button application. The set-up screen for SongBooth is visually exciting, complete with a brushed nickel, retro recording mic. A “follow” button is included, allowing you to build up a fan base, who’ll support you now…and later recall – with pride – that they knew you when you sang for your supper, riding back and forth on the no. 7 train from Queens to Grand Central station.

Ubuntu for the smart phone will combine all of your mobile experiences, such as social media, desktop computing, mobile banking and your favorite mobile apps running on Ubuntu.
Ubuntu is the leading Linux on ARM to day says Mark Shuttleworth. Ubuntu has been working closely with ARM to bring a clean and bueatiful experience to the smartphone.
This will also allow your Ubuntu smart phone to act as your desktop computer.
ARM has been working for about 5 years now with Ubuntu via an engineering and marketing engagement.
Ubuntu does not need a lock screen because Ubuntu uses every edge of the screen. Each edge has a specific purpose.
All your apps can be seen down the left hand side of the screen. All of your favorite are available with one guesture.
There is a search box at the top of the screen on the home page to allow you to search for anything on line.
A side ways swipe will allow you to see all of your information you use on your smart phone. Contacts, music, videos and apps.
One consistant way to find your apps. Native apps are faster and much more responsive.
