It is the Wireless headphone to debut next

The new iPhone7 may debut the wireless EarPod, the much awaited wireless earphone. It is about cutting the cord and I love it. I love to get away from then tangle of wires, even with the best of arrangements to keep them neat and compact. One thing less in the complexity is highly welcome.

Wireless earphones are there already (Erato Audio and Rowkin Mini) according to what you can read here.

How do the iPhone connects to Earpod? It appears Bluetooth technology will be used. when not listening they can be used for other activities like answering voice calls and many more. It is not far fetched to see SIRI coming into the picture as well.

In summary, it is more than a wireless headphone, it is more an integrated peripheral for the phone. Does it take away energy from the battery, probably it does, and how much is going to what matters in terms of battery usability before recharging.

As for me even the best of the headphones are not good enough if the buds do not sit correctly, comfortably and unnoticeable in your ears.

UWP: Displaying formatted text in a TextBox Control

Image
The entry you make in a text box control is of data type text and sometimes you need to format it as a currency with thousands separator while displaying. Also, if the number of decimal places you enter is more than 2, you need to round it up to 2 in the output. How do you code this in a UWP app? Create a UWP page starting from a Blank UWP project with three controls as shown. There are two text boxes and a button. You enter a number in the top textbox (txt1) and click the button, the formatted currency will be displayed in the bottom textbox(txt2). The app displays as shown. Now provide for a click event for the button and insert code as shown: Convert_1 The string entered in txt1 is converted to data-type double, it is then 'rounded'. The rounded number is then formatted to show the currency symbol and the 1000's place delimiter you find, for example in Excel formatting. Here is the app after entering a number and c
