After Promixis and its Promixis Girder we present a new program allowing iPhone users to control their homes. Lagotek in cooperation with Ikanos Consulting Go Gadgets™ technology created “HIP Modes†Sideshow home control gadget working on iPhone and iPod touch.
Both companies have managed to harness Vista Sideshow’s technologies for home automation use.

Go Gadgetsâ„¢ for iPhone and iPod touch is a web application which, when installed on Windows Vista, turns an iPod touch or iPhone into a Windows SideShow-capable device. Thanks to HIP Modes SideShow home control gadget iPhone and iPod-touch users can control lights, temperature, music, audio/video devices and the security system of their automated home over WiFi and GPRS/EDGE.
According to the press release, the official presentation of this software is going to take place at this year’s International CES, January 7-10, Las Vegas, Nev. (CES South Hall 1, booth #20419).

Assuming you’re one of the many (slowly dying breed…) Windows Mobile users, you probably get the occaisional “Wow, why don’t you have an iPhone yet?” and shrug it off. Then again, why would you read a website based upon iPhones? I thought so, you sly dog, you.
Home, made by PointUI, turns your Windows Mobile into an iPhone-like state, with alot of the same capability and apps that you don’t currently get access to. Mainly, added is the ability to widen the area used to activate options and sliders, so you don’t need to use a stylus this time around.
Home allows you to one-touch activate calls, emails, text, and music, as well as easily manage sound, wireless, and battery functions. Additionally, the ability to switch between running programs instantly. See? If you only had an iPhone by now, you wouldn’t need this software…
This is only a small amount of the features available: A full list is available on Home’s website here.

You know that things are getting hot in the touchscreen industry when Japanese giant Sony is showing off a multitouch prototype LCD display that beats the iPhone’s capabilities.
tech.co.uk reports on having had a chance to see Sony’s latest touchscreen display prototype — it handles five inputs at a time, which is two more than Apple iPhone can handle.
According to tech.co.uk, using the multitouch screen using three fingers was much easier than using one or two (like you would with your iPhone).
Sony’s new LCD measures 3.5 inches in diagonal with a 640 x 480 screen resolution and has optical sensors embedded in the screen. If Sony Ericsson was to use it, it could surely be a worthy competitor to Apple’s iPhone.
Could mobile phone displays be one day as simple to use as this multitouch touchless sensor screen demonstration?

According to a report by Apple Insider, Apple has plans to switch from Samsung processors to Intel’s Silverthorne for iPhone v2.0.
That should result in higher processing speeds for the iPhone and less expenses for Apple, while the devices could become sufficiently slimmer as a result of Silverthorne platform use due to integration of all main circuitry inside one very small chip (see photo of the Silverthorne below).
Apple Insider quotes unnamed sources speculating that Apple will also be using Intel’s Silverthorne mobile platform in a speculated on Apple line of super portable touchscreen personal computers, possibly due to be introduced at MacWorld 2008.
Furthermore, the report states the company might use the upcoming Moorestown mobile platform from Intel, in 2009 or 2010.
During the last IDF, Intel execs called Moorestown the ‘chip the iPhone would have wanted.’
