for Click. OK, Barcelona, find my location, find the location of the

:00:17.:00:22.

event, give me walking directions. That will be cheaper than getting a

:00:22.:00:32.
:00:32.:00:44.

Welcome to Click. I am Spencer Kelly. Will come too beautiful,

:00:44.:00:49.

bustling Barcelona. We are here to cover an event that is becoming

:00:49.:00:54.

increasingly important. In a world where more and more of us want to

:00:54.:01:00.

be able to do and access things on the goal, more ice end up here on

:01:00.:01:06.

the city at the end of February. This is the home of the Mobile

:01:06.:01:10.

World Congress. We bring you the big news from the big show

:01:10.:01:17.

including giant phones, tiny tablets and all sizes of fablets.

:01:17.:01:23.

Move over touch, we will bring you some tech you cannot put your

:01:23.:01:27.

finger on. And those expensive foreign phone bills. The look at

:01:28.:01:32.

the alternatives to the high cost of running. Plus we research and

:01:32.:01:39.

old fantasy Classic in Webscape. The Mobile World Congress has a new

:01:39.:01:49.

home this year. This is the massive Fira Gran Via or. It is a sign of

:01:49.:01:53.

how big the mobile industry is getting. Just because it is began

:01:53.:02:03.
:02:03.:02:03.

new, there -- is there anything began you to see? -- big and new.

:02:03.:02:08.

It was big, a labyrinth in, some new technology Launceston sum was

:02:08.:02:15.

not. -- labyrinthine. Technology launched and some was not. Samsung

:02:15.:02:20.

showed us the Galaxy Note 8. It aims to go head-to-head with the

:02:20.:02:26.

iPad Mini. It has got the S Pen. It comes with 3G and Wi-Fi. That

:02:26.:02:35.

depends whether you are in the US or elsewhere. You have got phones

:02:35.:02:42.

that evolve into a next-generation. You have got cameras with killer

:02:42.:02:49.

apps. There are even ecosystems. You can see why. Phones are

:02:49.:02:55.

mutating and adapting in ways you cannot believe. -- would not

:02:55.:02:59.

believe. Screen envy is a new ailment for which the only known

:02:59.:03:04.

cure is to trade up to something requiring a larger pockets. The

:03:04.:03:10.

Optimus G Pro is made by LG. The fight 0.5 inches display is the

:03:10.:03:20.

biggest on a mobile. -- 5.5 inches. It has front and rear cameras. They

:03:20.:03:27.

have also changed the optimists L series. These phones are equipped

:03:27.:03:33.

with remote monitoring systems. If the phone is not used for a while,

:03:33.:03:37.

it sends out a message, with location, too concerned relatives.

:03:37.:03:41.

The service contract the location of the handset. Great for worried

:03:41.:03:49.

parents. Be it is designed for having peace of mind for a lot of

:03:49.:03:56.

kids. It is so that people looking after them have peace of mind than

:03:56.:04:04.

they can be tracked. Other launches at Mobile World Congress include

:04:24.:04:29.

showcased the 520 and the 720. Sony were keen to make an impression

:04:29.:04:39.
:04:39.:04:42.

with their latest Ablett, Sony Xperia Z it weighs just under 0.5

:04:42.:04:48.

kilograms. It has got a trick up its sleeve. It is waterproof. You

:04:48.:04:52.

can use it in the bath, the kitchen. Sony have left their competitors

:04:52.:05:02.

sleeping with the fishes. You can submerge this for up to 30 minutes.

:05:02.:05:07.

It is not for a scuba-diving but it is handy if you get caught in the

:05:07.:05:17.
:05:17.:05:18.

rain. Click featured Ubuntu a while back. Now Firefox has lost his

:05:18.:05:25.

operating system. Firefox all s is a browser based system. It means

:05:25.:05:30.

you are on the Internet when you are using it. It is seen as a

:05:30.:05:37.

gimmick -- game changed you by the makers. You can use it on

:05:37.:05:41.

applications like Twitter and Facebook. The innovation engine is

:05:41.:05:47.

so strong. We expected to do well. Queue-jumping is usually being

:05:47.:05:53.

polite. With PayPal second, you can place your order at will local

:05:53.:05:57.

coffee house remotely. Then you do it made to stand their steaming as

:05:57.:06:03.

you wait to get served. -- you do not need to. Waiting in line is

:06:03.:06:08.

painful. Waiting for the waiter to bring the cheque is painful. People

:06:08.:06:16.

love this. People turn their backs to a long line. Consumers love it.

:06:16.:06:22.

They do not have to wait in line. We have not just seen a blooding of

:06:22.:06:25.

the line separating phones from tablets but it is getting more

:06:25.:06:30.

difficult to tell where the virtual world ends and the real world

:06:30.:06:38.

begins. That was a round-up of this year's sure. I think it is fair to

:06:38.:06:45.

say that the smart phone revolution only really got going with touch-

:06:45.:06:53.

screen technology. Specifically, Capacitive touch-screen technology.

:06:53.:06:58.

Check this out. This is the prototype of a new type of touch

:06:58.:07:04.

screen. Firstly, you don't actually touch it. More importantly, you can

:07:04.:07:09.

see that it can detect, with a good degree of accuracy, how close the

:07:09.:07:13.

tips of my fingers are to the screen. That is clear there on this

:07:13.:07:18.

lap top. This paves the way for apps and devices that can be

:07:19.:07:28.

controlled using 3D gestures. This is also limited by your imagination.

:07:28.:07:32.

You can get more accurate as you move your finger closer to the

:07:32.:07:38.

screen. I find this quite exciting. The guys behind the touch-screen

:07:38.:07:42.

say they already have an interested manufacturer. These devices could

:07:42.:07:49.

be on the shelves by the end of next year. Next up, tech news. A

:07:49.:07:56.

new system of warning and then penalising those who illegally copy

and distribute music, movies again than the Internet has begun in

:07:59.:08:04.

America. The six strike scheme is backed by some of the biggest

:08:04.:08:08.

Internet service providers in the country. Those suspected the

:08:08.:08:11.

Copyright infringed and will get six warnings, then their Internet

:08:11.:08:17.

access to be limited but not cut off. Campaigners against the scheme

:08:17.:08:23.

says it makes ISPs the judge, jury and executioner. There have been

:08:23.:08:28.

similar schemes in France and New Zealand. Piracy has been cut by 50

:08:28.:08:34.

% as a result. Apple has finally given in two and reappearance he

:08:52.:08:57.

offering credit or refunds to people who said that their kids

:08:57.:09:00.

went Indian shopping without their knowledge or permission. LG has

:09:10.:09:11.

raised a few eyebrows by buying an operating system for Pam Smart

:09:11.:09:16.

phones and tablets. They plan to integrated into their TV range and

:09:16.:09:26.
:09:26.:09:30.

other devices, which include cars and... It is ironic but one of the

:09:30.:09:35.

things that we struggle to get here are the Mobile World Congress is a

:09:35.:09:40.

decent signal. Like any large gathering of people, the local

:09:40.:09:48.

services are flooded. Many people are from Spain. The data on the

:09:48.:09:57.

phone can cost more than the hotel bar bill. Roman charges kick in

:09:57.:10:00.

when you leave your country of origin. Within the EU, the chances

:10:00.:10:09.

of getting a bill running into thousands of pounds are remote.

:10:09.:10:15.

There is a service to warn you when you build its 50 euros. Networks

:10:15.:10:21.

offer data at Dons we significantly reduce the cost. Many also offer to

:10:21.:10:25.

stop the connection may you hit a predetermined limit. The high price

:10:25.:10:32.

of roaming is also prompting alternative services. Goodspeed

:10:32.:10:39.

takes 10 some cards for a different countries. Globalbig give several

:10:39.:10:47.

devices access to data. At the moment, it is all a active in the

:10:47.:10:51.

UK, States and Australia. It offers rates more comparable to those at

:10:52.:11:01.
:11:02.:11:02.

home. It is interesting to note that in most parts of the world,

:11:02.:11:12.
:11:12.:11:14.

rates have gone up. Our pricing in all zones, even in two years time,

:11:14.:11:18.

will be based on domestic prices which will be lower than the EU

:11:18.:11:24.

charges. And indeed things are looking up. Next year, for the EU

:11:24.:11:29.

regulation allows us to choose which network build us for our

:11:29.:11:33.

roaming service. Essentially it allows us to the couple are phones

:11:33.:11:39.

from our home provider found at home. This will pave the way for

:11:39.:11:45.

apps for this one. It helps you plan before you get to your

:11:45.:11:49.

destination. It should force the networks to think more serious play

:11:49.:11:53.

about how much they charge for those foreign megabytes. You count

:11:53.:11:58.

you any of the available data plans and purchase them immediately by

:11:58.:12:04.

using the existing channels. Does more for up automatically controls

:12:04.:12:14.

all through settings. What network you are on full stardom you do not

:12:14.:12:22.

-- you're on. You do not have to worry about it. This woman is an

:12:22.:12:31.

analyst. Hello. It sounds like, come next year, we will be allowed

:12:31.:12:40.

to become law phones. It is going to be bad for our home and it works.

:12:40.:12:44.

Suddenly we're going to be able to choose a cheaper alternative

:12:44.:12:49.

compared to their rolling fees. makes the market more competitive.

:12:49.:12:53.

If they want to keep you, they will need to provide more competitive

:12:53.:13:02.

prices. In addition to that, we will see them investing more and

:13:02.:13:07.

trying to improve the customer experience. They will provide you

:13:07.:13:12.

with apps that allow you to track your usage then you are roaming.

:13:12.:13:18.

They will be very transparent about prices. They will try to keep you

:13:18.:13:24.

on their network. It sounds like Europe has strict regulations

:13:24.:13:28.

coming in to keep the prices down. What about the rest of the world. -

:13:28.:13:36.

-? There are no regulations. This means you can accept big bills and

:13:36.:13:44.

to continue paying very high prices. When you go beyond Europe, there

:13:44.:13:54.

will be some changes in various parts of the world. One thing is

:13:54.:14:00.

the allowance in the Far East. -- the bridge Alliance. You can travel

across countries and paid $20 a day for a limited data. That is

:14:07.:14:14.

provided you only choose a network when you arrive in a particular

:14:14.:14:24.
:14:24.:14:31.

country. That you very much for The Fighting Fantasy books were a

:14:31.:14:35.

total gain changer for entertainment. Quite literally as

:14:35.:14:40.

they opened our eyes to the concept of interactive adventures. 30 years

:14:40.:14:44.

on Ian Livingstone is still at it with blood of the zombies also

:14:44.:14:52.

available on iPad. This app took me right back to my teenage years,

:14:52.:14:56.

fighting to find the right path through books like Death Trap

:14:56.:15:00.

Dungeon, mastering the five fingered bookmark so you could jump

:15:00.:15:05.

back a few stages when it all goes horribly wrong. They've even bilge

:15:05.:15:10.

cheating into the app so you can jump back using the Bookmarks,

:15:10.:15:15.

giving me that full 1980s experiences. Staying true to the

:15:15.:15:20.

dice rolling gameplay, with the app you get added atmosphere through

:15:20.:15:27.

sound effects and tension music. And you don't need to carry a dice

:15:38.:15:43.

takes you on a journey through the images collected by more than 200

:15:43.:15:47.

motion sensitive cameras dotted about the Serengeti National Park.

:15:47.:15:52.

These cameras have already captured millions of images. And it's your

:15:52.:15:56.

job to help them make use of that data by classifying and counting

:15:56.:16:01.

the animals that you see. It helps the famous wildlife reserve keep

:16:01.:16:06.

track of what's going on. It's like crowd sourcing the job of park

:16:06.:16:10.

ranger, and you get to look at some really cool photographs while you

:16:10.:16:15.

work. The complicated species IED process

:16:15.:16:20.

is made Simple with the looks like elimination options, and the

:16:20.:16:25.

tutorial spells that all out very quickly. It's also a great way to

:16:25.:16:29.

be more scientifically familiar with these animals in their habitat

:16:29.:16:39.
:16:39.:16:51.

in a far more engaging way while On Monday 24th February the Strand

:16:51.:16:54.

1 nanosatellite successfully launched into Earth orbit with an

:16:54.:16:59.

Android smartphone at its heart. The 360 app loaded on to the phone

:16:59.:17:04.

will be capturing images and collecting satellite data, posting

:17:04.:17:08.

updates on its Facebook page. So check it out if you want to see how

:17:08.:17:15.

the brave Nexus One fares in space. And for you Browser TAP addicts,

:17:15.:17:23.

Google is working on a fixed to help spot an app playing a sound by

:17:23.:17:27.

showing an and lighted icon. It is only for Chromium and Canary right

:17:27.:17:36.

now but it should make its way on to the mainstream Chrome. Kate

:17:36.:17:42.

Russell. So we have established the mobile industry is moving rather

:17:42.:17:45.

fast, it is mobile after all, as well as this year's big

:17:45.:17:49.

announcements there are plenty of other things to see down there on

:17:49.:17:59.

the show floor at MWC. Here's It's a crazy fast-paced world of

:17:59.:18:03.

communication we live in. Especially the Mobile World

:18:03.:18:07.

Congress -- at the Mobile World Congress. Thankfully there are some

:18:07.:18:12.

people just trying to take life that bit easier. And Concepts

:18:12.:18:19.

giving us time to contemplate our surroundings. Ideas like this from

:18:19.:18:24.

Japan, a pair of augmented reality specs, reflecting an emerging trend

:18:24.:18:28.

towards wearable tech. Look down and they could show you where you

:18:28.:18:32.

are. Look up to the heavens and you might get the weather forecast or

:18:32.:18:38.

some other useful information. Unlike project last, these build in

:18:38.:18:44.

gesture to. For point your way to a menu when their horizontal and you

:18:44.:18:49.

get your apps -- for example. Fancy brushing up your artistic skills?

:18:50.:18:53.

No problem. They're still in their infancy and right now they still

:18:53.:18:58.

need a helping hand from a man at a laptop, but definitely a pointer to

:18:58.:19:03.

what ahead. There was no shortage of colourful expression at MWC and

:19:03.:19:07.

it's good to know some outfits are working hard to fully exploit that

:19:07.:19:11.

processing in our smartphones for creative ends. Creative self-

:19:11.:19:14.

expression through your mobile is all well and good when you're

:19:14.:19:18.

trying to take videos and pictures sometimes they can be prone to a

:19:18.:19:22.

bit of camera wobble. That's when sock where image stabilisation can

:19:22.:19:27.

help to counteract the very worst effects -- software. Mobile

:19:27.:19:32.

processors are now so powerful that smartphone cameras can now take two

:19:32.:19:36.

images almost simultaneously, one of the subject and one of its

:19:36.:19:39.

background. Because they're taken at two different focusing points

:19:39.:19:43.

the camera can isolate one from the other and that can lead to some

:19:43.:19:48.

very cool effects. Excuse me. And here we have the so called shallow

:19:48.:19:52.

depth of field effect so beloved by pros. You can see it's all blurred

:19:52.:19:56.

in the background and the best thing is you can dial the effects

:19:56.:20:02.

down or up according to your creative win. Now with all these

:20:02.:20:06.

innovations is easy to lose sight of the core purpose of mobile tech,

:20:06.:20:10.

to communicate. Right now that tends to mean a voice call is made

:20:10.:20:15.

through your phone. That's beginning to change. O2 has just

:20:15.:20:20.

launched to go, and app letting you take your phone number on multiple

:20:20.:20:27.

devices to let you make phone calls and texts. Soon we will be able to

:20:27.:20:31.

extend that phone experience to the Web as well. Imagine this is your

:20:31.:20:34.

mobile phone account on your operators website, or your contacts

:20:34.:20:38.

are here and you can use your regular phone number to touch base

:20:38.:20:43.

with each other. It's thanks to a technology called real-time

:20:43.:20:46.

communication and it will soon be implemented in the likes of the

:20:46.:20:51.

Firefox browser as well as kugel's Chrome. It means you can make voice

:20:51.:20:56.

and video calls from within the browser environment. -- Google. Or

:20:56.:21:00.

you could send any other data as well simply by dragging and

:21:00.:21:03.

dropping. The best thing is you don't need to download any

:21:03.:21:08.

additional software or plug-ins, it will simply work on any compatible

:21:08.:21:15.

Web browser, on any device, phone, tablet or PC. The mobile world can

:21:15.:21:19.

be an intimidating place, especially for mature users who may

:21:19.:21:24.

not be all that familiar with tech. The power of the Web is being used

:21:24.:21:29.

here as well. Loved ones can been put Granny's contacts or snaps into

:21:29.:21:35.

a web browser and then they are sent to her handset. For the more

:21:51.:21:54.

conscious there as a barometer. It does some sophisticated processing

:21:54.:21:58.

of incoming calls like noise cancelling, adjusting the frequency

of the boys the according to your age, and even slowing down their

:22:02.:22:08.

voice and so you can hear them more clearly -- the voice. I'm on my way,

I'm sorry I'm late. I know I'm late but I will be there in five minutes.

Hello, baby, it's me. Yeah, I'm on my way. I'm sorry I'm late, I know
