I don’t think the second of these videos are supposed to be spooky… but it is. How come? It’s the gradual creep, the slowness, and the silence. However, let’s distract ourselves with the first ad. This is shiny. This promises the latest in Android tablet tech. Tech that can talk to your PlayStation. The S2 […]
Google puts the blood moon in your phone
There will be a blood moon tonight – a total lunar eclipse. It will be a long one too, lasting for about 100 minutes, that’s the longest since the year 2000. The ecplise starts at about 6:20pm BST (for UK readers) and about 11:20am PDT (for US readers) but, of course, there’s a catch. In […]
Swype 3: Search and Poke for Android tablets
I’m a big fan of Swype. It’s a custom keyboard for Android phones – and now, with Swype 3, for tablets. The bad news for iOS users is that these sorts of apps are illegal in the Apple ecosystem because they replicate features that Apple themselves wish to provide (generally, in Apple’s eyes, to preserve […]
Amazon opens for Toshiba Thrive, the Android tablet, pre-orders in the States
Eagle eyed geeks have noticed that Amazon in the States (not elsewhere such as tech hungry UK) have published pre-order pages for the Toshiba Thrive. This is an Android 3.1 tablet. The RRP starts at $429.99 and that gets you 10.1″ high-res LED screen with Toshiba’s auto-adjusting brightness, duel front and back cameras, two speakers […]
Mobile Review: Samsung Galaxy Mini
I have long been of the belief that technology is an enabler. Used properly it can educate, entertain, and generally enhance the quality of our lives. I am also firmly of the belief that in order for the maximum number of people to benefit from technology, cost should not be a barrier to entry. Samsung […]
Portal 2: The Turret Opera
Before we begin – in case you don’t know – let me direct you to the Portal 2 music page where you can download the entire soundtrack for free or even pick up some Portal 2 ringtones for Android or iOS. Right! Moving on! A Cappella Records team up with, er, with Aperture Science in […]
Sony’s S1 and S2 Android tablets are mondo sexhay!
Okay folks! You’ll have seen the news that Sony has finally announced they’ll be doing Android tablets. Both devices are PlayStation certified, use mobile and wifi, run Android 3.0 and can even be used as a remote. The S2, in particular, has my eye. It looks more travel friendly. It can also be used as […]
Where can I play Dungeon Defenders: Second Wave?
Looking to play Dungeon Defenders: Second Wave? In a sign that Sony is serious about the Xperia play – you’ll only find it on the PlayStation certified smartphone. Dungeon Defenders: Second Wave includes all the First Wave stuff and a new PvP mode. We’re looking at over 30 hours of gameplay, persistent characters, multiple multiplayer […]
Samsung’s Galaxy Ace goes Super Slow-Motion Motion
The creative talents at work helping Samsung promote their Android range have come up with another video. It’s a fun video because you get to see the general look of puzzlement from the curious onlooks. That’s always a bonus. This video is to promote the Galaxy Ace. The phone runs Android 2.2, 150MB + 2GB […]
Dancing Android of doom!
I’ve seen comments suggesting that people are scared of this dancing Android. The YouTube is titled “Android on crack”. Dear me. I actually thought the suit might have had a mechanic core for the first few seconds of the video. Why? The footsteps were so quick and accurate. It’s clearly a person inside and I […]
