    Samsung teases Bada at event, questions still outnumber answers

    Posted on December 8, 2009 | No Comments
    We've just come back from the Samsung Bada mobile platform launch event in London, and frankly the presentation was no more than an app developer and investor magnet -- no rendering of a new UI, no hands-on opportunity and no direct answers regarding the hardware. The only mention of a Bada phone is that something's coming out in the first half of 2010. That said, today Samsung did bring in representatives of five strong Bada app partners: Twitter, Capcom, EA, Gameloft and Blockbuster. Needless to say mobile gaming is high up on Bada's agenda, but the brief presence of Twitter's Head of Mobile, Kevin Thau, solidified Samsung's dedication for integrating SNS (social networking services) sites on mobile handsets. Yes, just like many fish in the sea. Read on to see how Bada aims to be "an ocean of endless enjoyment."

  • Zeemote JS1 finally available for standalone purchase

    Zeemote JS1 finally available for standalone purchase

    Posted on August 27, 2009 | No Comments
    The Zeemote JS1 controller has always intrigued us. Mobile handsets are getting more and more powerful, and the games are bordering on beautiful - but the controls are still terrible. Attempting to control a game with a virtual, onscreen D-pad is like threading a needle with your feet. That's where the JS1 comes in. As a standalone Bluetooth game controller, it theoretically brings mobile gaming a bit closer to the gaming we're used to on other platforms. Alas, it's always had one major fault: you couldn't buy the damn thing.
