Nokia C3-01.5 – With 1 GHz processor

Nokia C3-01.5 – With 1 GHz processor
Nokia C3-01.5 – With 1 GHz processor - Nokia has managed to give us over the head with their phone names. When switched from four digits to the simplified taxonomy with a letter we’ve had a sigh of relief. Unfortunately, the large number of terminals launched a year led the Finns to throw two digits to the queue name.

Now we are talking about a cell phone named Nokia C3-01.5. But we hope that the rumors are true, and this new terminal will replace the actual Nokia C3-01 Touch and Type from the market.

We’ve heard of their plans to introduce terminals based on the S40 platform with 1 Ghz processor. If Symbian^3 runs on 600 MHz, why would you need one GHz for S40?

Returning to the Nokia C3-01.5, it will provide an additional 512 MB of RAM, increased from 64 MB. Only those from Nokia know why we need so much memory for such a phone. List of future models that could be launched to replace the current phones include: Nokia C2-01.5, Nokia X3-01.5 and Nokia X2-01.1. Also, it also speaks of a future X2-03. We are expecting the official announcement now and hopefully it will not take long. We will keep you updated with the latest information about it.

Is Microsoft integrating Xbox into Windows 8?

Is Microsoft integrating Xbox into Windows 8?
Is Microsoft integrating Xbox into Windows 8 - For those of you who have wanted to play your favorite Xbox 360 games on your PC but didn’t want to have to bother with setting up an emulator, you may be in luck!

The upcoming Windows 8 OS is rumored to allow you to play Xbox 360 games on your laptops and desktops! This will be an amazing leap for both of these companies and will surely boost sales for each. There is no word yet if there will be any additional hardware installations needed for your computer to be able to run these games, but I for one am ecstatic about this possible union!

While there are numerous games for the Xbox available for the PC as well, not all of them are, and for many gamers they are limited to their stationary consoles rather than being able to enjoy the freedom of a laptop and multifunctional ability of your desktop computer.

With the new Xbox console hopefully being presented at the next E3 conference, we may see this magical union being announced sometime afterwards as the sales for that console slow down.

The future brings many good tidings!

Swiss Flame: A Swiss Army Knife with a Built-in Lighter

Swiss Flame: A Swiss Army Knife with a Built-in Lighter
Swiss Flame: A Swiss Army Knife with a Built-in Lighter - Swiss Army knives are a must have for any self respecting boyscout.  Each knife, at the very least, includes a corkscrew, a nail file, a serrated blade, a straight blade, a pair of tweezers and a toothpick.  In terms of survival it was the ultimate tool and the more blades or gadgets your Swiss Army knife sported the cooler it was.  However, and looking back in retrospect, it was missing one major tool.  What’s that you ask?  A lighter.  Enter the Swiss Flame from Victorinox.  But before you get too gitty, you should know that these were discontinued in 2005, despite only receiving a 3 year manufacturing run.  Insult to injury, they were never made legal in the US since they were considered unsafe.  How these are any less safe then a regular butane lighter is unknown, but perhaps it had something to do with sharp blades and fire being contained in pocket friendly package.  Also, let’s not over look 9-11, which must have played into the demise of these super handy tools.

Bike Fixation: A Self-Service Bike Kiosk Complete with Tools and Pump

Bike Fixation: A Self-Service Bike Kiosk Complete with Tools and Pump - Bike Fixatation’s DIY kiosks could easily be mistaken for a Coke vending machine.  And while they do sell snacks and drinks, they’re a fair bit more than that.

They just opened their first location in Minneapolis. It’s a self service bike Kiosks (it accepts coins, bills and credit cards) that features a bike lift with tools, an electric pump and a vending machine that includes not only food and drink, but tubes, lights and patch kits.  Strangely enough we’re hearing that it is only open from 6am to midnight, but that might be more a result of the location than the actual machine.

They’re currently planning to open a second location in Minneapolis, but here’s hoping they make their way to other major cities, such as LA, Boston and New York.

Battleship iOS Review

battleship, battleship review, board game, iOS, ipad, iPhone
Battleship iOS Review - The last time I seriously played battleship was at least 10 years ago, with my brother bored one afternoon, the board game having saved the day. At least for a little while…they’re called board games for a reason, but bored out of my mind like an ADHD-riddled child told to read a book instead of watching TV, I had little choice. It was either that or Monopoly, and nobody wanted to sit around for ten hours playing that.

On the iPad though, Battleship is another Yahtzee. That is to say, a 5-minute hero, for one and two players alike.

For those who by some unreasonable happenstance don’t know what Battleship is, it’s a simple board game that requires two players to place five navy vessels on a 10×10 square, and each player must find and sink their opponent’s ships by firing single shots into the abyss. Five ships come in four sizes: 5-spaces, 4-spaces, two 3-spaces, and one 2-space. Ships don’t move throughout the game and can only be set vertically or horizontally, not diagonally. The first person to sink all five of their opponent’s ships wins.
battleship, battleship review, board game, iOS, ipad, iPhone
What developer EA Mobile did was provide the classic game in a simple digital format, just like they did with Sudoku. Then they added on two other modes of play, Salvo and Superweapons. The former is the classic mode, except that each available ship fires one shot, so players’ first fire five shots per turn until they lose a ship, then four, etc. Superweapons is a more pragmatic approach where players have three additional weapons to choose from – a choice between 13 weapons from spread shots to instant kills to a mine that seeks out enemy ships. Strategies between all three modes vary so drastically that it can hardly be considered the same game. In fact, the classic Battleship tends to feel old and outdated, and slow, when compared to these two newer modes.

Add onto those three gametypes two-player multiplayer – available via local Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and on the same iPad/iPhone – and you have a real digital boardgame made better through advances in technology. But if you’re playing alone, losing is a rarity because the AI is pretty stupid. The AI regularly makes dumb decisions, like firing where no ship could possibly be, and has no programming for playing strategically – why would it hit every space when looking for a 5-space carrier? – which kills half the fun. Playing with a friend is way better…that, and rubbing in your victory until they don’t want to play anymore, of course.

Games like Checkers or Life may not get better in the digital age because they lack the feel and flow of playing in the real world, but the simplicity and additions that Battleship for iOS has improves on the physical board game, even if that means no more red and white pegs getting lost all over the house and inside couches. Slap Battleship on your iOS device and get sinking.

Puzzle Agent 2 Review

game review, ipad, iPhone, iphone game review, puzzle agent, puzzle agent 2, puzzle agent 2 review, Telltale games
Puzzle Agent 2 Review - The first Puzzle Agent was a surprising change of pace when considering the flock of iOS games streaming like an unrepentant hurricane into the App Store. It was charming and fun, with true story and entertainment besides fun puzzle solving. Great puzzles and a flummoxing cast of colorful characters made it a rich, albeit short adventure.

So what the hell happened here?

Puzzle Agent 2 takes place barely after the first, once again following Agent Tethers on a not-so-new adventure. Tethers of the FBI’s Department of Puzzle Research returns to Scoggins, Minnesota, to solve the mystery of disappearing residents. Residents which the small-town folk couldn’t care less about. Residents the FBI find only a nuisance, even though they clearly matter for the “bigger picture”. How’s that for a strong, enthusiastic plot, especially when compared to a presidential eraser factory mysteriously closing down?

Gameplay is identical to Puzzle Agent, requiring players to click on objects or persons to interact with, which in turn activates plot queues for cinematics or puzzles to solve. Little has changed between the first and second Puzzle Agent titles, from the characters (identical plus a few additions) to the setting (same places, same art, same everything) to the way the game is played. Puzzle Agent 2 isn’t a sequel…it’s an expansion pack sold for a ridiculous price as a standalone.

That’s not to say Puzzle Agent 2 isn’t a good…but it certainly isn’t the same fun, entertaining game. Puzzles are simpler and often not really puzzles, just solve-it yourself activities. The few actual puzzles require prior knowledge of some sort (one such puzzle required giving the next number of a sequence, but it made no sense…unless you knew the 6th decimal digit of pi). Most of the puzzles just aren’t fun or thought provoking. They are tedious

The same applies to the plot. Agent Tethers isn’t on some new adventure, he’s back in snow-filled Scoggins. There are no standout characters…the one possible love interest turns into a psychotic conspiracy theorist, only to disappear from the story entirely. There are very few actual lines of dialog to follow. The mystery practically solves itself. In the end Tethers finds the answers he’s looking for and solves the mystery of Scoggins’ disappearing residents, but there is no reward, no climactic moment that makes it all worthwhile. All players get is a final non-sensical puzzle to solve, and plenty of left over chewing-gun (hints) to squander.

Can I fault developer and publisher Telltale Games for this? Absofragginlutely. Puzzle Agent 2 is a trainwreck as a standalone title. I almost expect that Telltale decided to release it full-priced just to see how much they could make with minimal effort. And I emphasize minimal effort, because that’s how much work I put into finishing this game…and how much effort I’ll put into deleting it.

Custom-built Batmobile with iPad

Apple iPad, Batman, batmobile, Batmobile Replica, Bruce Wayne, Casey Putsch, Custom-built Batmobile, GPS, Putsch Racing
Custom-built Batmobile with iPad - We’ve seen die-hard fans do some crazy things and go to incredible lengths to collect anything, and everything, from some of their favorite movies, but “Batman” enthusiast and builder, Casey Putsch, pretty much takes the cake thanks to his real-life Batmobile.

Putsch’s creation is molded after the Batmobile from the 1989 version, starring Michael Keaton and was directed by Tim Burton. While many have tried to reproduce this iconic car, few have come as close as Putsch and certainly none have used a real turbine jet engine.
Apple iPad, Batman, batmobile, Batmobile Replica, Bruce Wayne, Casey Putsch, Custom-built Batmobile, GPS, Putsch Racing
As the man behind Putsch Racing—a company that restores, designs and apprises all things automotive related in Dublin, Ohio—Putsch want more from his custom Batmobile and chose a jet engine from an old Boeing U.S. Navy drone helicopter (which burns jet fuel, kerosene or diesel) into his superhero car. This unique take on an engine pushes out about 385 horsepower. Totally street-legal, the 20-foot long and 7.5-foot wide, 2,800-pound, two-seater Batmobile (that also sports modest trunk space) has been road-tested and functions as any normal car does (traditional features like a gas and brake pedals, an adjustable steering wheel and a shifter, are all standard on this unique vehicle).
Apple iPad, Batman, batmobile, Batmobile Replica, Bruce Wayne, Casey Putsch, Custom-built Batmobile, GPS, Putsch Racing
But the turbine-powered Batmobile sports more cool and modern features inside, too! Burton’s original version touted a CD player (very advanced and high-tech at that time), but Putsch’s version features a 3G Apple iPad at its core.
Apple iPad, Batman, batmobile, Batmobile Replica, Bruce Wayne, Casey Putsch, Custom-built Batmobile, GPS, Putsch Racing
Using the iPad as its avionic and GPS systems, this Batmobile is advanced pretty advanced, which is reasonable given Bruce Wayne like to always be ahead of the times, too!

Other features include: an infra-red and visible light spectrum reverse cameras with cockpit monitor; sliding canopy; steel tube frame/monocoque chassis; on board fire suppression system; and all the same styling cues as the 1989 Batmobile.

The entire build took only five months, and obviously, the result is something that Bruce Wayne himself (all versions, actually) would be proud to drive around Gotham and fight crime!

You Don’t Know Jack iOS Review

Game, iOS, iphone game, iphone game reviews, ydkj review, you don't know jack
You Don’t Know Jack iOS Review - There’s something I’d like to talk to you about. Have a seat. Ready? You Don’t Know Jack is back. Yes, you heard me right. You Don’t Know Jack is back. And it’s for iOS, so it’s mobile. I can die happy now.

You Don’t Know Jack (YDKJ) is a beloved gameshow-style trivia game with over a decade of history on the PC with over a dozen titles and a failed TV show. Its popularity stems from non-stop witty banter and insulting monologues by the hosts, and the hilariously random questions that stretch players’ imaginations with questions on pop culture and interesting facts. And the questions are rarely a simple choice…nearly every question itself will be phrased to make you sweat.
Game, iOS, iphone game, iphone game reviews, ydkj review, you don't know jack

here is no other trivia game that will make you yell out like a kid with exasperation at the pop culture references from the last 30 years. That’s not to say it’s a geek’s game. Everyone can play YDKJ and have a good time because the array of questions spans farther than host Cookie Masterson’s giant ego, from Baywatch to lolcats to Red Faction. And I love him for it.

Developer Jellyvision has been working on YDKJ for years, most recently releasing a new title in February and updating their website with new questions weekly. The iPhone and iPad versions – identical yet priced differently, meaning if you buy one you don’t get the other – currently feature 22 “episodes with 11 questions each. Episodes tend to last between 15-20 minutes individually, which makes the full game 6-8 hours of fun.

Gameplay follows a simple process: every episode opens with Cookie welcoming players with an insult, then a brief, witty or catchy animation before Cookie reads the question out loud. Then four answers appear on screen and a 20 second timer counts down, and players have to choose an answer before time runs out. Money is earned (and lost) based on how quickly questions are answered…16 seconds left earns or loses $1600.

What makes YDKJ the best trivia game franchise is how everything is win-win. Answering incorrectly is sometimes funnier than actually being right because it allows Cookie to insult, berate, belittle and verbally molest players into a side-splitting stupor. I absolutely love it. Sometimes it’s fun to lose because being told about how wrong, dumb, and pathetic I am in so many colorful ways is just plain entertaining. It’s like sitting in the front of a comedy show waiting for the comic to pick on you, without the public embarrassment.

Then there’s the trivia, which is outrageously funny. Questions may be straightforward, or word riddles with hilarious connotations or ridiculous references. They may even be read aloud in such a way that players can’t help but chuckle along. From how the question is worded to how it’s said, to just how ludicrous the question is…every little thing in YDKJ has been handled by comic geniuses.

There are only two things that limit the experience. First, YDKJ does not feature multiplayer, the one function that’s made it the famed and loved trivia title over the years. I myself got hooked on the franchise at a party years back, and playing with friends is one of the most entertaining experiences known to man. There are plenty of options for how to make this mobile YDKJ work well on the iPhone and iPad, but none are currently available, and it’s a damn shame. According to Jellyvision however, at least one multiplayer mode is in the works.
Game, iOS, iphone game, iphone game reviews, ydkj review, you don't know jack

The second is bugginess, which attacks without warning. The app won’t crash, but graphical errors will plague the screen. Once a quarter of the screen went black; another time textures just shot out painting my screen like a spider web. Fortunately there is an autosave function after every new question, so even if the battery dies once YDKJ is started, a “continue” button lights up that starts players right back at that question.

Buying You Don’t Know Jack, for me, was an emotional decision. I came in expecting it to be funny and exciting, and 22 episodes later I am thoroughly entertained, and even a tad educated. The price is high at $4.99 on the iPad ($2.99 for iPhone for the same game), though Jellyvision will support the game with new episodes free in future updates. I couldn’t ask for anything more, except multiplayer. Give me multiplayer and the world will be whole, Jellyvision.

Versetta iPad Bags

Versetta iPad Bags - iPad bags and sleeves are a dime a dozen.  That’s why it’s refreshing to see the Versetta line of iPad bags.  They offer a few different options in terms of color and layout, but each one features a flap that flips down to reveal an iPad that is held in place and protected from the occasional ding.  We particularly like the Martin Laptop bag, which features a top zipper entry with room for a notebook, some paperwork and a few other road warrior worthy items.  The inside is lined with fabric, which should keep your goods scratch free and all the iPad’s (version one or two) ports are accessible when it’s slotted into place.

OMA Monarch Speakers - We don’t even know where to begin with the OMA Monarch speakers.  Hidden behind that grill are two 15-inch speakers that are said to deliver bass that “no high end design using small woofers can even hope to match”.  Those large wood baffles are designed to help load the woofers so that you can place them in any part of the room and still enjoy what we can only hope is fulfilling and rich sound.  Lastly, the horns are crafted from a proprietary cast aluminum alloy, and a compression driver covers the midrange and high frequencies.

Ultimate Ears 350 Review

ultimate ears, ultimate ears 350, ultimate ears 350 review, ultimate ears review
Ultimate Ears 350 Review - The Ultimate Ears line by Logitech is known far and wide by professional audiophiles and average consumers alike.  They have a number of products ranging in price from $20, all the way to over $1000 – so there’s something for just about anyone.  This is going to be the first of three reviews on the ear buds they sent me – to be followed by a “Good, Better, Best” comparison.  Today’s review is on the 350 model which are “Noise-Isolating Earphones” – so just how well did they work?

The box of the Ultimate Ears 350 ear buds say that they are “tuned for extra bass”, which I assumed would just be like someone pushing a “bass boost” button on a stereo.  I also assumed that because these ear buds only cost $50, that they would sound cheap and flat.  Well you know what they say about assuming…

I enjoy various musical tastes, so I gave the 350′s a good run to see what sounded the best on them, and while an old live Dead show from ’74 sounded really nice, it was when I was listening to some hip hop and techno that I was able to truly appreciate them.  The bass came through quite crisp, however it didn’t distort or drown out the rest of the spectrum of sounds.

The fact that the design is sweat resistant is quite nice as well, because generally when I’m working out or running I sweat profusely.  I’ve had an extreme time with my A-Stars (the ear buds I used to use) falling out of my ears after about thirty minutes of use, and then about every five minutes after that because I sweat.  With the 350′s, I can honestly say that I haven’t had a single issue with them leaving my ear when I didn’t want them to.

As I said at first, the 350′s are branded as noise isolating ear buds which they do quite well, however there’s a small problem with this.  Now I don’t know about you, but when I’m listening to something on ear buds I generally keep the audio source (iPhone, mp3, player, etc) in my pocket.  When I want to hear what someone is saying, it’s a real pain to have to dig it out and manually mute the volume – for some reason there’s no in-line mute or volume control on these things.  I know they’re not an expensive model, but I would have really appreciated that feature.

Another thing I would have asked for in this model, would be the black memory foam tips that are provided with the other two models they sent me.  It’s just an aesthetic choice, but I don’t like the look of the clear tips – they feel too medical to me – besides that, black would have looked better on the rest of the design.  Something else I noticed while reviewing these (and maybe it’s just from getting a good seal on my ears, maybe it’s because the 6.8mm drivers are so highly tuned), is that for the first time I’ve had to turn down my iPhone while listening to music.  Normally I listen at 100% volume, but anything over 50% was way louder than I’m used to.

Overall, I think the 350′s are a bass-head’s wet dream.  They’re cheap in cost, and extremely effective.  Maybe not so great for classical rock listeners or if you’re listening to pod-casts all day long, but if you want to feel like there’s a sub-woofer strapped to your head then these are for you.  I give the Ultimate Ears 350 by Logitech 4 out of 5 stars.

GScreen SpaceBook – a new laptop with two 17.3″ screens

GScreen SpaceBook, a new laptop with two 17.3″ screens - This laptop will not sell in large volumes ever, but I know people who would preorder it right now. If you ask what you can do with these two 17.3″ screens with full HD resolution, then you are part of the audience. Many users are often put in a position to have multiple applications open simultaneously. If I have an office document open and I take information from the Internet to insert it into the document, it’s not quite nice to go between office and the browser application with Alt + Tab.

And now enters GScreen SpaceBook, a laptop that you can already preorder. Its horizontal sliding screens display 1920×1080 pixels each. On the hardware part, we have enough performance components. The manufacturer chose the previous generation of Core processors, but the Core i5-560M and Core i7-740M are models that will not let you down. It has 4 GB or 8 GB RAM, these two configurations receive the NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250M, a 500 GB HDD and a DVD burner.

The price of such a laptop, not quite portable, starts at $2.395 and reaches $2.795 for the model with the Intel Core i7 processor. I am sure that the weight of 4.5 kg will be a minor inconvenience for those interested.

The Ultimate Keychain - Men and women, young and old, all have keys of some sort. We have numerous keys, gadgets, and other trinkets on our keychain that just ball up in an ugly mess that jingles with each step. Many people have entirely too many things on their keychains and this can actually cause damage to the ignition switch in a car. So is there a solution? Of course there is!

Keyport is a small device that holds all of your keys, usb drives, has a flashlight, and can be purchased in a multitude of colors for those of you who prefer something other than black.

This is a perfect gift for anyone who needs to consolidate their keys. It is small, lightweight (only weights about 2 ounces), a reasonable price, and can hold up to six keys in each keyport.

Blackberry Playbook vs Xoom Tablet Comparison

Blackberry Playbook vs Xoom Tablet Comparison

Blackberry Playbook vs Xoom Tablet Comparison - With the tablet market in India going crazy with the addition of new tablets every day, the latest addition to the tech selves from a renowned manufacturer is Playbook from Blackberry makers RIM and Xoom from Motorola. The main competitor for all the tablet manufacturers is undoubtedly the Apple iPad2, seemingly the competition is getting tougher and tougher for iPad but somehow it has managed to keep its market share on the high so far. Will Blackberry Playbook and Xoom be able to get any closer to beat the iPad in the tablet race or will this prove to be just yet another good try. Let us compare the important features of both these tablets to find out which one has a better chance.

    * The First Impression (Looks and Size)


Blackberry Playbook is elegant, that’s the first impression that you are going to get no doubt. Its sleek and stylish design and excellent finish will certainly be getting your attention first up, before you get into the details of other specifications. With this sleek and stylish design, playbook weighs only 14 ounce and is much lighter than 1.6 pound Motorola Xoom. Now comes the size, with the weighs compared you can expect Playbook to be extremely compact and that’s exactly what the case is, even with so many tablets around it would be hard to beat its 7-inch pocket fit size, again Motorola Xoom has a screen size of 10.1 inch. Both the tablets feature TFT capacitive touch screens with 16M color with Xoom having a higher resolution 800*1280 compared to 600*1024 pixels of Playbook.

    * Camera

Blackberry Playbook comes in with a 5mp camera at the back plus a 3MP front camera. To have a 5MP camera in your pocket size tablet is indeed a big delight. It has the ability to capture high resolution images in all environments and record HD 1080p video. Xoom is not behind on this front featuring a 5Mp front camera and a 2MP rear facing camera. It is capable of recording HD 720p video. So Playbook has a slight edge on the camera battle front.

    * OS

Blackberry Playbook runs a new OS called QNX while Xoom has quickly gained reputation as being the first tablet running on the latest Android 3.0.Both the tablets feature impressive 1ghz dual core processor. Both the devices are available in 16,32 and 64GB versions.

    * Applications

The availability of apps is something that has always kept Apple ahead of the other tablet manufactures. The only other competitor at the moment as far as apps goes is Google Android. Playbook will definitely not be able to match Motorola Xoom on the apps front with its 3000+ available apps compared to well establish Android apps in Motorola Xoom.

    * Email Client And Web Browsing

Blackberry Playbook lacks the email clients for yahoo, hotmail and gmail but provides a better browsing experience being equipped with Adobe flash player that is missing in Motorola Xoom.

Even though Blackberry has tried hard to produce a business oriented tablet with decent entertainment features the more iPad like Xoom is ahead with its Android 3.0 OS.

Asus expands its production capacity to hope to sell 4.5 million EeePad Transformer in 2011

Asus expands its production capacity to hope to sell 4.5 million EeePad Transformer in 2011

Asus expands its production capacity to hope to sell 4.5 million EeePad Transformer in 2011
 - Monthly sales of the Asus EeePad Transformer come to exceed 400,000 units. Internally, the Taiwanese now shows the ambitions of 4 to 4.5 million units sold in 2011.

It is no longer a mystery today: the Asus EeePad Transformer is the tablet under the Honeycomb selling now. The months of April and May, 400,000 units have passed, while stocks were weakened by events in Japan and we found it mainly in the United Kingdom and the United States. For comparison, in the first quarter of 2011, Motorola has sold 250,000 units of its Xoom, but it only appeared on the market until late February and was available in the United States. The lack of communication from the U.S. firm confirms unfortunately the poor sales. For other tablets, we do not really know the exact numbers.

If this tablet is selling more than others, a combination of several elements: first, the innovative concept, with the possibility of connecting to a physical keyboard. The second is an unbeatable value compared to the competition, which saw fit to match or even exceed the price of the Apple iPad. The last track is updated copy as Android 3.2 is already in test.

Production Asus EeePad Transformer has exceeded 400,000 units as announced in June. Officially, the goal is to sell 2 million copies by the end of the year (information given to vendors). But Taiwan has asked that providers are increasing their shipments to reach 400 to 500 000 pieces in this quarter.

This upward revision of orders is also accompanied by a change in objectives internally. They would now come to sell 4 to 4,500,000 units by the end of 2011. This is still double the original estimates, which again confirms the success.

If this were the case, Asus and could register as the second largest manufacturer of tablets, behind Apple; but with both Samsung Galaxy Tab could surprise, despite arriving slightly off the market…

Success for Asus EeePad Transformer

Sony launches 3D adverts channel for Bravia tellies

Sony launches 3D adverts channel for Bravia tellies - Not to be outdone by Samsung, Sony has rolled out a 3D video-on-demand channel for its Bravia TVs.

Dubbed the "3D Experience", the channel will be pre-installed in 3D-capable Bravias bought from today. If you already own one, there will be a "refresh internet content" update shortly.

 A similar update for Blu-ray players and home theatre kit us coming soon too, Sony said.

The downside is that all the channel is flogging are "promotional video clips", so it will be fine if you need something quick to wow chums who've popped round to gawp at your new 3D TV, but not to sit back and enjoy yourself.

Samsung's 3D VoD service at least holds the promise of 3D films you can stream, albeit at a price.

Sony did promise that Wimbledon 2011 highlights will be added soon, but until then viewers will really only be treated to adverts.

Pantech Vega N ˚ 5 tablet featuring 1.5 GHz dual-core processor hits the shelves


Pantech Vega N ˚ 5 tablet featuring 1.5 GHz dual-core processor hits the shelves - Korean company Pantech announced the launch of sales in the domestic market of new tablet Vega N ˚ 5 (aka IM-T100K). It took Pantech about six weeks to make Vega N ˚ 5 since its announcement on May 26 until it went on sale in Korea.

The configuration of the tablet during this time has not changed: the device is still equipped with 5 " touch screen featuring resolution of 800 x 480, 1 GB RAM, 16 GB of internal flash memory, Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n and even HSPA +. Two more important features of Pantech Vega N ˚ 5 which sharply distinguish it from the rest - the main camera, which has a resolution of 8 megapixels and can record video at a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and the platform Qualcomm MSM8660, which includes a dual-core processor running at 1.5 GHz. 

It should be noted that even some well-known companies are still far from being able to equip their devices with such a productive platform and a camera of this resolution, and here we are talking about not the very best Korean brand. Thus Pantech did a very good job in creating a high end small tablet.

This new gadget is available in Korea at a price of 550 Euros which is quite tolerable considering the specifications of the product. As for the operating system Vega N ˚ 5 is running it is Android 2.3.3.

Motorola – A Tablet with high-resolution and Android 4.0

Android Tablet

Motorola – A Tablet with high-resolution and Android 4.0 - Motorola is working on a tablet worthy to compete with the iPad 3, and to make some major changes proposed for the design, the future product is keeping little resemblance to the current Xoom tablet.

First, Motorola decided to give up the screen of 16:9 in favor of the Apple series iPad-like of tablets with 4:3. The next step is crowding of the screen diagonal of 10 inches with not less than 3.14 million pixels, 2048 x 1536 resolution. It seems that the name of the future tablet is not Xoom 2s, already caught in some images, but rather we are dealing with a completely new product.

From the terms of the characteristics of the screen, the two tablets may be on an equal footing when it comes to software complicates things. Apple iPad 3 will use the iOS 5 operating system, which we know already that brings more news from the current iOS 4. Motorola has available the Android 4.0, or Ice Cream Sandwich as is known.

Ice Cream Sandwich is the first unified version of the Android, an operating system adapted to work equally well on tablets and Smartphone’s. Full compatibility with applications from Android Market is just one of the advantages of Honeycomb Android.

Adoption of the 4:3 format, instead of 16:9, can say that Motorola pay more attention to the practicality of a tablet, by choosing a less suitable screen for watching movies, but allows us to use more efficiently the space work.

Lady Blanche


Lady Blanche - If you think regular iPhones are expensive then your jaw will drop at these figures. The new white iPhone costs the same amount as the black one ($399-$699), but if you want a bit more bling on your phone then you can purchase the Lady Blanche. Designed by Gresso, the Lady Blanche is a gorgeous white iPhone that would please any woman. Unfortunately it costs about $30,000.

With only about 150 of these made, the Lady Blanche is a normal iPhone with an ‘iced’ exterior. The backside is equipped with three Swiss clocks with pearl dials. Each clock tells the time in a different part of the world. Also, there are 3 different little displays on the back, each holding diamonds that glitter like fire.

Unfortunately many of you may think that $30k for a phone is a bit out of your price range, thankfully they offered a much more reasonable solution: Swarovski crystal replacing the diamonds. The crystal drops the price down to only $7k and makes this a much more reasonable investment.

Rather than buying a car, you can impress your lady friend with this glittery combination of jewelry and technology!

Sony Ericsson Xperia Duo – the first photo and specifications


Sony Ericsson Xperia Duo – the first photo and specifications - A few days ago we were talking about Sony Ericsson Xperia™ Ray and Xperia™ Active, now here we are again with another Sony Ericsson Smartphone. Sony Ericsson Xperia Duo, the company’s new flagship Smartphone range, was caught in a first official image.

Unfortunately details about the specifications of this phone at least for now remain mere rumors. Xperia Duo could be built around a NovaThor A9500 chipset composed of two or more processor cores ARM Cortex A9 and a graphic core from Mali-400 series. The chipset is similar to that present in the Samsung Galaxy S II, but with increased frequencies for cores.

An alternative configuration has the possibility of using a Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8260 chipset, whose performance you already know from the HTC Sensation.

On the surface waters are less turbulent, equipment list continues with a 12 MP camera and 4.5 inch screen on the surface which we can admire the Android 2.3 Gingerbread operating system, played on 960 x 540 pixels resolution.

The energy demand is supplied by a rechargeable Li-Ion 2500 mAh capacity, which is almost unbelievable for a mobile phone. Sony Ericsson Xperia Duo could be officially announced in the coming weeks, during which we will know the complete list of specifications and the purchase price.
