Just four days before the announcement of the Samsung Galaxy Tab (destined for SK Telecom in South Korea), another large Korean carrier announced its own Android-running tablet. The Korea Telecoms Identity tab is a 7” Eclair-running slate with a 1GHz CPU and 8 GB of internal storage.
There will also be an SD expansion slot and a DMB TV tuner inside the aluminum-clad tablet. A 3 megapixel camera will also be at your disposal, while the resolution of the display will be WVGA.
There are four days left to the announcement of the Samsung P1000 Galaxy Tab and the rumor marathon continues at full strength. This time it’s the accessories that Samsung will release along with their first tablet.
The available extras for the Galaxy Tab (or at least the ones we know about) start with a leather carrying case, priced at 41 euro (ouch!).
The rumored Toshiba Folio 100 Android tablet (a.k.a. Toshiba SmartPad) that first showed up this Monday just surfaced once again. And this time there is the full specs sheet coming along with the leaked images.
The Google Realtime Search was introduced back in December 2009 and now it gets its own homepage and some major improvements, which should make it even better. Those include location-based search refinement, email updates and conversations view.
I’m starting to get seriously worried that Samsung will have nothing new to tell about the P1000 Tab at its upcoming official announcements. At the rate these leaks are going all the specs will be revealed well before 2 September.
Today we have another short video on our hands demonstrating the Samsung Galaxy Tab in action. It comes from the tablet homeland Korea, and shows it sized up against the Apple iPad. The video also takes us for a quick tour around the interface demonstrating some remarkable performance.
Today Canon released their next-generation mid-range DSLR, the EOS 60D. Positioned right in the middle between the Canon 550D and the high-flying Canon 7D, the 60D packs the same 18MP APS-C CMOS sensor as the two previously announced Canon DSLRs.
Yesterday I told you that Google is about to integrate a web-based VoIP client in Gmail. Well, the new service was launched later on following my yesterday’s blog post about the rumors of it. So, if you have a Gmail account both voice and video calls are only a web browser plug-in and a few clicks away from you.
The Nokia N8 is available on pre-order in China right now. It’s available in two bundle deals with headphones, car charger and the chance to win egg-shaped speakers. And while we’re on the topic of N8, we’ve got a demo video of the its email prowess…
Rumor has it, you’ll be soon able to make voice calls directly from your Gmail inbox. Groundbreaking? I don’t know. But the important thing is this makes things much easier. No need to download dedicated apps or whatsoever.
Hollywood has been trying to do video game based movies for a while without much success. But what if they take a game that’s extremely popular on mobile platforms and turn it into a series of shorts?
The creators of Angry Birds, Rovio, are looking to do just that and they have already been approached by several studios. Oh and by the way, Angry Birds has added WebOS to the list of supported platforms…
The Samsung tablet is just around the corner and, understandably, rumors about it are intensifying by the hour. But now we have something that’s better than any rumor or blurry spy shot – an official promo video.
The video doesn’t say much about the tablet itself but it still confirms that it will be running Android 2.2 and will support video-calling. There will also be a second camera at the back of the 7-inch tablet and it will allow full web browsing (which probably means Flash support).
Just as promised, Sony made several major announcements today. The company introduced the world’s first interchangeable lens cameras with translucent mirrors, the SLT A55 and A33, a couple of new additions to their mid-range DSLR portfolio and the wider availability for their latest prime lenses.
The translucent mirror cameras feature a semi-transparent mirror that redirects a small amount of light onto the AF sensor while allowing the rest through onto the main imaging sensor. That in turn allows for full-time phase-detection AF in live view mode. Any geek will tell you that the phase-detection AF system is by far superior to the slow contrast-detection AF systems DSLR manufacturers are using in all Live View-enabled DSLR cameras.
Microsoft and IBM finally revealed how the new two-in-one Xbox 360 chip looks like. It’s built using a 45nm manufacturing process, has 372 million transistors and is smaller, cheaper and less power hungry.
The Samsung Tab Android tablet has appeared several times before, but this has to be the most detailed leak yet. The guys over at ifanr.com received the juicy info from a tipster who passed along photos and impressions that confirm a lot of the specs we’ve heard so far…
