The Nokia Lumia 630 is an upcoming smartphone by Nokia. There’s no word on when Nokia will be unveiling the handset, but with the Finnish company confirming their presence at the Microsoft BUILD conference, some have speculated that is when Nokia will be taking the wraps off the device.

Using a proprietary version of multi-peer Bluetooth, the Loopd iOs application allows users to search and connect with contacts within a few feet without using a GPS. As the example described in the video (see above), you can see who you know at a party and start a chat session on the spot, to find in which room your contact is. This could be very useful during large tech conferences, such as CES or MWC where unplanned meetings based on “real-time proximity” would be more efficient than scheduling meetings far away apart.

Loopd is launching the IOS app today and plans to unveil its wearable tech component in June.  From my email conversation with CEO Brian Friedman, I learned that the upcoming loopd bracelet will use gesture to let people exchange their contact info with a simple handshake. I cannot wait to see and try this cool gadget!

It does look as though Sprint will finally introduce their HD Voice service across the spectrum of its network over here in the U.S., which is a sliver of good news who have been watching the situation closely considering how it is now a couple of years after Sprint first set their sights on this particular feature. Just what kind of benefits will HD Voice bring to the table? For starters, HD Voice is able to increase the dynamic range of the audio that has been transmitted over the network from the standard four octaves all the way to seven.
