Verizon promises first 4G handset for next summer, foretells end of unlimited data plans
March 11th, 2010 
Eric Alright, you ultrafast mobile broadband zealots, whip out your calendars and draw a big red tick around the middle of 2011. Verizon’s CTO Anthony Melone has identified next summer as the carrier’s release window for its first LTE handset, which should be preceded by the 4G service being rolled out by the end of this year. If you’re wondering what you’ll be using on that “faster than 3G” network while waiting for the vanguard handset , we saw plenty of LTE-equipped gear at CES and let’s not forget about that 1080p-decodin’ NVIDIA tablet that was teased during the show. ...

No Comments »Want more on the PlayStation Move? Head over to Joystiq!
March 11th, 2010 Eric Sony’s calling the PlayStation Move the “next generation” of motion gaming and planning to market it as heavily as an entirely new console, so it’s sort of a big deal — and that means our main dudes at Joystiq are all over it. We’ve already covered the main details , but hit the links below if you’re looking for some seriously deep dives. ... Read More...

March 11th, 2010 Eric Uh, whoa . When we heard Google’s threatened pullout of China had prompted Motorola to seek out an alternative search provider for its China-bound handsets, we can’t say we were expecting a partnership with Microsoft to result. But here we are, staring at a press release announcing the Bing search and Maps will be the default on Moto’s Chinese Android phones starting in Q1 — and the partnership is described as “global,” so there’s a chance it could spread. ...

March 11th, 2010 Eric No surprise here: Sony just officially announced the PlayStation Move motion controller at GDC 2010, calling it the “next generation of motion gaming” because it’s so precise — latency is about the same as the DualShock 3. As expected, it uses the PlayStation Eye camera to track the controller, and Sony says it becomes an “extension of your body.” The plan is not only to engage casual gamers, but to use the precision of the controller to create “new experiences for core gamers” — many of the demo videos we saw involved using a controller video in each hand, and there were quote a few demos of action / RPG games. We also saw a demo of Move Party, which uses the camera to do augmented reality gaming and video chat. ... Read More...

March 11th, 2010 Eric We’re exceptionally likely to find out the official name of Sony ’s PlayStation motion controller in just a few hours during the company’s GDC press event, but till then, we’ve got one more late-breaking morsel to chew on: Move. According to trademark divers across the web, Sony has filed a European trademark for “PlayStation Move,” which certainly sounds like a plausible title for some sort of motion-sensing apparatus. To date, we’ve also heard ” Arc ” thrown around (which we tend to prefer, if we’re being candid), and the logo shown here — which is said to belong to a separate trademark application — definitely looks more like an “A” than an “M.” Keep it locked right here for more as we get it. ...

March 11th, 2010 Eric There’s only about a month to go before Apple drops the iPad on the world, and it looks like all those theories about a last-minute camera addition were just fond fanboy wishes — iPhone SDK 3.2 beta 4 just came out, and in addition to stripping out several video-call related icons, we’ve been told the docs contain this little tidbit about that Camera tab : Launching the Photos application under the iPad Simulator will initially show three tabs: Photos, Albums, and Camera. The Camera tab represents photos available via the Camera Connection Kit for iPad, and is not relevant for the Simulator... Read More...

For all intents and purposes, this 320GB HDD is nothing more than a standard drive with a fancy marketing scheme following it closely... Read More...
