The top Indian telecom and security officials are currently meeting in New Delhi to discuss the Blackberry security issue which could essentially mean the end of Blackberry services in India if at all the standoff comes to a deadlock as predicted by many.

The Indian government had warned earlier this month that it would start blocking emails and instant messages sent on BlackBerry smartphones unless the company came up with a way for security agencies to decode the encrypted traffic by August 31.

Now that the BlackBerry Ban seems imminent, several Indian companies have started mulling alternate options to BlackBerry services, which would mean a huge gain in share to RIM rivals like Nokia and Apple. According to Reuters, companies like GE India & Infosys have already started discussing options to switch to other services.

India, which has 1.1 million BlackBerry users, would be the first country to curb its services. But RIM is also facing a threatened ban by the United Arab Emirates and is negotiating with Saudi Arabia on security issues.

Wikileaks has now promised to release more such leaked documents, the latest being a CIA document. The tweet from their official Twitter account read – “WikiLeaks to release CIA paper tomorrow” and gave no further information, either about the exact time or the content of the paper.

This latest leak comes just a few days after their founder Julian Assanje was accused of rape and molestation, which was quickly withdrawn. Assanje was quiet vocal about the involvement of US government in what he feels a “smear campaign” against him and his website.

Wait for the updates on the actual contents of the leaked CIA paper.

Android based tablets from Samsung are supposed to be released this quarter “within 60 days” according to the sources. Samsung, the world’s No.2 handset maker after Nokia, said its tablet PC will have a 7-inch display, smaller than the 9.7-inch screen on the iPad, which has sold more than 3 million units since its April launch.

Not just Samsung, the world’s third largest handset maker, LG also plans to introduce tablets or slate devices running on Android in the fourth quarter. Surprisingly enough, no major manufacturer seems interested in bringing out a Windows 7 or Windows mobile based tablet. Microsoft though, has said it would introduce new tablets based on its Windows operating system soon to beat back advances by Apple and Google and is working with PC makers Acer Inc, Dell Inc, Toshiba Corp and others to develop the devices.

Here is a quick heads-up about the official iPhone 4 and iOS 4 user guide released by Apple. The 28-chapter, 244 page guide covers a host of iOS 4 features—including syncing and file sharing, all the core, pre-installed applications, iBooks, Nike + iPod functionality, and accessibility.

The book includes tips specific to the iPhone 4, but it also includes tips for the 3GS and 3G. When a section of the manual is only applicable to a certain device, it is noted at the beginning of the section.

If you’ve been using an iPhone for any length of time, you’ve probably figured out most of this stuff already. It’s a good resource for new users, though.

Transferring photos on to iPad is a big headache for many, basically due to the absence of any USB port. Though Apple claims that iPad is a perfect replacement for netbooks, absence of USB ports is a big con as you can’t transfer photographs from your digital camera to the iPad directly.

iPad users normally copy the photos from their digital camera to a computer and then use a program like iTunes to transfer them from the computer to the iPad. However, if your camera is fitted with one of the Eye-Fi memory cards, you can transfer the pictures from the directly to the iPad over your Wireless (Wi-Fi) network.

Check out the video below which demonstrates how images are transferred from a DSLR to an iPad wirelessly using an Eye-Fi Geo X2 wi-fi SD card and the iPad app ShutterSnitch.
