Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson are among a group of companies backing a new memory standard. Called Universal Flash Storage, it would apply to both internal and removable memory; in the case of the latter, it would theoretically eliminate the need for adapters bridging different card sizes, such as SD and microSD. The group is also working towards dramtically improving power consumption and data density, as well as access times. As an example of its goal, the group says that while it can currently take three minutes to copy a 90-minute HD video, this time could be shrunk to seconds with UFS.

Growth driven by digital software and console hardware sales.
The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
here we go again.....
Hasent sony had a really bad track record on pushing formats. I think none of their formats has ever succeeded in the market. Blue-ray could be their first one but its no longer looking that way.
Sony...Sony...Sony
This universal memory is being jointly developed as stated in the article by THREE companies & not just Sony (Inc. Samsung & Nokia). It would seem that it will offer compatibility benefits to the consumer which can only be a good thing as i am personally tired of multi -card readers. Heading of this article is incorrectly being sensationalistic & joining the bash Sony bandwagon. N4G should stop trash like this being posted just for the sake of having news.
**EDIT**
Above commenter's are plain ignorant or stupid as they fail to see this is a "Joint Development" as clearly stated in the article. A venture by the largest players in the mobile market -including the king NOKIA.
Lets see if they can acomplish it. To all detractors yeah i wonder why people push new technology when there is a risk of failure since come on who wants to make money, its like microsoft trying to get into japan why do it right?
Below: look for the definition of sarcasm
More propietary formats = More money.
