It was also contended that the chief executive officers (CEOs) of the concerned telecom companies be charged as abettors in all criminal incidents wherein non-registered SIMS were used for commission of offence.<br /> While accepting the petition for hearing, Chief Justice (CJ) Islamabad High Court (IHC) Justice Muhammad Anwar Kasi issued notices to the secretary ministry of information technology and Telecommunication, Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA), ministry of interior through its secretary, chief executives of the all telecommunication companies and inspector general Islamabad police seeking their reply over the concerns raised by the petitioner.<br /> IHC CJ directed the respondents to submit reply within 10 days time.</div>

ASUS Transformer Book T100 Offers Full Windows 8 Under a Tempting Price Tag

The previous generation processor coupled with the manufacturers’ resistance to spend more on projects with less profit margins has been holding the tablets back but tables might have finally started to turn.<br /> ASUS’ newest response in the Transformer Book T100 is a 10.1 inch tablet with 1366 x 768 resolution and has an Intel Atom Z3740 Bay Trail processor under the hood. The hybrid also comes with Intel HD Graphics and 2 GB RAM.<br /> For connectivity, microUSB, microHDMI, Bluetooth and USB 3.0 port (in the keyboard dock are used).<br /> On the software side, it comes with full Windows 8 (and not the RT), and Office 2013 pre-installed right from the get go.<br /> Compared to the $499 iPad, the Transformer has been priced really attractively. Starting at just $349 for the base 32 GB model and $399 for the 64 GB version, it also comes with a keyboard dock. Yes, that’s true, without spending a penny more.<br /> That transforms it into a full-fledged PC which can run loads of Windows software. And if you thought the internals were weak, the Bay Trail platform is twice as faster as the Clover Trail which it succeeds so you might even be able to play a few games on it as well.<br /> It will be made available later in October this year.</div>

HP Unveils its Newest Chromebook, 14 Inch Display, Haswell for $299

Its cost was $329, was laggy and had an outdated design. This time however, the people in the company have really went back to the drawing board and came up with the HP Chromebook 14.<br /> The Chrome OS running laptop still comes with a 14 inch display but instead opts for an Intel Haswell (unspecified breed) rather than an Intel Celeron.<br /> For the design, HP have chosen rubberized finish and a plastic design over completely finger-print loving plastic. They also come in several eye-popping colors. The laptop is quite heavy, however, at around 4 pounds.<br /> The 14 inch screen comes with the same 1366 x 768 resolution. The keyboard below it is accompanied by a trackpad with a single key. A webcam is at the front too.<br /> As for the internals, it comes with a 4th-generation Intel Haswell of unknown kind and a 16 GB SSD. Cloud storage worth 100 GB through Google Drive is available for two years, along with an SD card slot.<br /> For connectivity, it uses HDMI, USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and Wi-Fi. Battery life is quoted as being around 9 hours.<br /> As for the price, the Chromebook 14 costs around $299. It will be available for purchase later this year but an exact release date isn’t given.</div>

There remains some glitches such as lack of payment processing gateway in the country, otherwise over 30 million internet users are on their toes to welcome the global companies.<br /> It merits mentioning here that global brands tend to buy local version of their TLDs (domain names) to secure the brand names. This helps them with a chance of starting a local service tailored specifically for a region and also to avoid local webmasters to replicate the service.</div>
