Mototorola Sholes Tablet detailed, sounds as tasty as we’d hoped
Posted on December 2, 2009 | No CommentsKnowing what we now know of the Droid -- codename Sholes -- the mere mental image of that "Sholes Tablet" that we've been hearing about for a while brings us to our geeky knees. Taiwanese forum Mobile01 seems to have details on just what the Sholes Tablet is all about, and while we'd normally be skeptical to the point of dismissal, the presence of a few believable-looking images has us on the bandwagon. The biggies on the rumored spec sheet include HDMI out, 720p video recording paired to an 8 megapixel cam (which is hopefully of much, much higher quality than the Droid's miserable 5) with xenon flash, and Motorola's own CrystalTalk tech for background noise reduction on calls. It'll apparently be running Android 2.0 -- the presence of BLUR is unknown -- and the screen is a predictably awesome 3.7 inches at WVGA resolution with multitouch support; missing, as the name suggests, is the original's sliding QWERTY keyboard. All signs point to use seeing this in the next few months, so enjoy those Droids and Milestones while you can, yeah?

Sony Ericsson lets XPERIA X10 videos and press shots loose
Posted on November 3, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, Sony Ericsson, GSM, HSDPA, Android
If you weren't up all night following Engadget (and why wouldn't you be?), the first place you'll want to visit this morning is our extensive hands-on of Sony Ericsson's inaugural foray into Android territory. There you'll find the full XPERIA X10 announcement details and spec sheet, which is highlighted by a 4-inch capacitive display and a deeply customized user interface. With plenty of time to go before that first quarter of 2010 release date, though, we thought we'd get the anticipation revved up a few notches with a selection of handsome images of the device below, and a pair of videos -- one a spit-polished advertising promo, the other a useful demo of Speed Forge 3D -- after the break.

Motorola MILESTONE does what DROIDon’t
Posted on November 2, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Motorola, Android
We've already seen the MILESTONE showing off multitouch capability, something the DROID clearly lacks in the States despite the fact that Android 2.0 rocks kernel support for it -- and now we've got another smoking gun: the official spec sheet. A quick glance at Motorola's tech specs for the Euro-flavored handset lists "pinch and zoom" as an interface feature, so yeah, it looks like this'll be in the shipping firmware. There's speculation out there that Apple was somehow involved in making sure that multitouch "fell" down a flight of stairs before reaching US-bound Android devices, but really, it's anyone's guess what's going on here -- and Moto's official statement isn't helping much:
Nor is Google's:"We work very closely with our carriers and partners to deliver differentiated consumer experiences on our mobile devices. At times, similar devices come to market with different features, depending on the region, carrier preferences and consumer needs."
So let the speculation -- and the firmware hacking -- begin."The Android 2.0 framework includes support for multi-touch. As with other platform technologies, such as the text-to-speech engine, carriers and OEMs can choose to implement it."

Mobiado’s Grand 350 Pioneer is fit for an extraterrestrial
Posted on October 23, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, Others, Symbian, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA, UMTS
Say your phone is accidentally lost in the void of space, never to be seen or touched by a human being again. Wouldn't it be comforting to know that any alien creature coming in contact with it a hundred, a thousand, or a million years from now would be able to deduce that you come in peace? With luxury phone maker Mobiado's latest version of the Grand 350, finally, you have that option available to you. As its name suggests, the 350 Pioneer is some sort of oddly-conceived tribute to NASA's Pioneer missions that features an engraving similar to the ones launched on its early craft; it describes our solar system, Earth's orientation within it, and basically tries to let your foreign friend know that you mean no harm using diagrams alone. The out-of-this-world spec sheet doesn't end there, though: you also get a meteorite embedded behind the display's sapphire crystal and etched text on the side letting everyone know your commitment to supporting the Pioneer program in as gaudy a way as possible. The Nokia E71-based phone is limited to just 37 examples, so you'd better get in line now -- and don't forget your space suit.

Acer Liquid mixes Snapdragon and Android 1.6 ‘donut’ for a movable feast
Posted on October 14, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, Android, Acer
Hey, what do you know, Acer just kicked out its first Android handset into the mystical kingdom of donuts and Snapdragons. Liquid, a rebranded (and slightly restyled) A1, brings a 800 x 480 WVGA capacitive touchscreen upon which you'll watch Android 1.6 ride that peppy Snapdragon processor. It's resumably tuned to 1GHz (or higher) and not 768MHz as listed on the eXpansys Germany spec-sheet -- a trick that'll make this the fastest Android handset on the planet. Of course, what would Android be without some tweaking? Acer promises a bevy of unique features such as improved power management, a new UI with tight entertainment and web integration, geo-tagging, a "Spinlets" application for access to streaming video and music, and full address book integration with Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, and other social media houses. Unfortunately, that's all the detail that Acer's willing to spill at the moment; dates, real specs, and prices when we get 'em.

The real hands-on with the Pentax K-7
Posted on September 1, 2009 | No Comments
So my “hands-on” post was really more of a “quick look” or a “look at some sample images” post than a hands-on you've grown accustomed to from CG, so I thought it wise to have a real hands-on of the Pentax K-7. I'm a Pentax user and I let the fanboy in me get the best of me. Apologies. Now here's the real hands-on, but before we jump into that, here is the full spec sheet of the K-7 that was used over the weekend at the Red Bull Indianapolis Grand Prix.

OLED Digital Clock is Nothing But Numbers
Posted on July 13, 2009 | No CommentsYou know those analog clocks which are nothing but a pair of hands on a spindle, distilling the function of the timekeeper down to its bare, concentrated essentials? The Black & White Clock is like that, only it’s digital. The clock consists of numbers only: no case, no background, no nothing. Four OLED shapes mimic the [...] -

Oh Lord No. LG Shows 12MP Camera Phone
Posted on July 9, 2009 | No CommentsHey, LG. Didn’t you get the memo? The one that said ”12 megapixels is enough? In a real camera? We guess not. LG now joins Samsung in the “prestigious” 12 megapixel telephone category with its prototype Louvre, which we presume is named for the Paris museum and not the slatted wooden door. The portable telephone also [...] -
Eight Cylinders of Pencil-Sharpening Action, And a Pizza Cutter
Posted on June 23, 2009 | No CommentsToday’s “waste of plastic” award goes to two items. A tag-team of tat, if you will. In the red corner, we have the Top Gear V8 Pencil Sharpener, a product with such a dearth of features that one of the spec-sheet bullet points reads “It is made of plastic.” It’s exactly what you’d expect: an electric [...] -
IPhone Teardown Reveals Underclocked 833MHz CPU
Posted on June 19, 2009 | No CommentsRapid Repair has, as expected, descended on the new iPhone 3G S, bristling with sharp tools like some sci-fi torture-bot, and splayed its remains on the cold slab of the teardown lab. It’s not an easy job — you’ll need a heat gun to remove some parts, other sections can be taken apart but not [...]
