Sony Ericsson is out with its new Flip Phone Patent. The patent is all about, Instead of having two separate screens on a flip phone—one larger inside and one smaller outside—this patent allows one larger screen to rotate to be displayed both on the inside and outside.

Hence you can have the screen auto swivel so you can see the same UI when the phone is closed as you do when it’s open. It may allow you to dial just from the contact list when the phone’s closed, instead of having to flip open the phone to make a call.

Hi Friends,

I got myself some cool books on technology subjects, so I would seriously advice you to take the opportunity and order urself some great technology books.

Some of the books are:

• Path: Ways of working in photography - Most photography books concentrate on the optical, mechanical, electronic, and chemical tools of photography. This book is about the most important factor in your photography: you.
• A Programmer’s Guide to the Mind - We will try to explain how the mind works, and we will also show how a person can make it operate more effectively.
• Advanced Programming Language Design - This book stems in part from courses taught at the University of Kentucky and at the University of Wisconsin–Madison on programming language design.
• How to Build a Successful Website - Due to the many news stories in recent years about big corporate websites going bankrupt it is a common misconception today that all or most websites are unprofitable and will not make their owners money.

..Lots more are available, kindly don’t miss the opportunity and quickly get yourself some good book from www.techbooksforfree.com
