| Siri And The iPhone’s Physical Keyboard Posted: 05 Nov 2011 02:28 PM PDT Siri And The iPhone's Physical Keyboard  Siri And The iPhone's Physical Keyboard The backlash was inevitable. Siri has had a bit of an image problem this past week. Just like all technology propelled by the tailwinds of hype, it hit the inevitable wall of tech punditry. This magically turned the stream of largely positive stories into a river of negative stories under the guise of things like: "the voice of reason" or the "wake up call".... |

Posted: 05 Nov 2011 02:28 PM PDT Motorola Corvair 6-inch Android 2.3 tablet outed, destined for the home automation set?  Motorola Corvair 6-inch Android 2.3 tablet outed, destined for the home automation set? There are plenty of WiFi-connected remote control apps for tablets, dongles for IR control and even an IR blaster built into Vizio's tablet, but here's a Motorola slab purpose-built for the coffee table. The Verge has received several pics of the Motorola Corvair (and its packaging), a "dedicated controller for the connected" ...something, which is apparently in testing with unnamed cable companies right now.... |
| Tesla continues to go its own way on charger design Posted: 05 Nov 2011 01:00 PM PDT Tesla continues to go its own way on charger design  Tesla continues to go its own way on charger design Filed under: EV/Plug-in, Tesla Motors Potential buyers of the upcoming Tesla Model S shouldn't expect to find a J1772 connector under the charging flap. The SAE International standard may be on board most electric vehicles, including the Nissan Leaf and the Chevy Volt, but Tesla has never liked the design. Calling the standard connector "ugly," Tesla has instead developed its own plug and charger that will be available to Model S owners.... |
| Sony Ericsson XPERIA Nozomi LT26i caught by Mr. Not-so-blurrycam Posted: 05 Nov 2011 01:00 PM PDT Sony Ericsson XPERIA Nozomi LT26i caught by Mr. Not-so-blurrycam  Sony Ericsson XPERIA Nozomi LT26i caught by Mr. Not-so-blurrycam Well, would you look at that: our first glance at Sony Ericsson's upcoming Nozomi and the photos are actually in focus. The LT26i is still rocking Gingerbread, but steps it up in the display department by moving to a 1280 x 720 panel, just like the Rezound and Galaxy Nexus.... |

| Posted: 05 Nov 2011 11:32 AM PDT Samsung Focus Flash review  Samsung Focus Flash review The Focus Flash is really a rather unassuming device. Sure, it packs Mango and a 1.4GHz Snapdragon, but its 3.7-inch Super AMOLED screen (no Plus here) and $49 price point aren't the sort of thing that scream "buy me" to gadget fiends and power users. In fact, since it was first announced, the Flash has been living in the shadow of its bigger brother (literally and figuratively), the Focus S.... |
| HP gives webOS developers a chance to get a $150 TouchPad Posted: 05 Nov 2011 10:48 AM PDT HP gives webOS developers a chance to get a $150 TouchPad  HP gives webOS developers a chance to get a $150 TouchPad The future of webOS may still be up in the air, but it looks like HP is at least still making a small effort to woo developers and keep its current ones in the fold. It's now giving registered devs in the US, Canada and Europe a chance to get a 32GB HP TouchPad for the blowout price of $150 (or €150 in Europe), for a limited time and while supplies... |

If you had any doubt that AT&T would bring LTE to NYC in the near future, it's time to put that doubt aside -- sort of. Speaking at the Mashable Media Summit Friday, Senior VP of corporate communications Larry Solomon said that New York City would be sheathed in Ma Bell-branded high speed "soon." Sure it's vague, but it's something.... |

| Posted: 05 Nov 2011 08:36 AM PDT Dell Inspiron 14z review  Dell Inspiron 14z review It's called rebranding, and by golly, Dell needs to do it. Once the world's top PC maker, it's ceded market share to the likes of HP and Acer and earned a reputation for bland designs and subpar customer service. So, we can see where the outfit would want to give its laptops a makeover as a way of distancing itself from its tarnished rap. That's precisely what seems to be going on... |
| Alpheon eAssist comes to Korea, 22% cleaner than before Posted: 05 Nov 2011 07:07 AM PDT Alpheon eAssist comes to Korea, 22% cleaner than before  Alpheon eAssist comes to Korea, 22% cleaner than before Filed under: Hybrid, Asia Daewoo has launched an eAssist version of the company's Alpheon model (LaCrosse here in the States) in Korea. The hybrid manages to deliver 25 percent better fuel economy than the standard gasoline model while reducing emissions by 22 percent. That's thanks to a small electric motor and lithium-ion battery battery pack that work in conjunction with a 2.4-liter direct-injection gasoline engine. The configuration is identical to the Lacrosse eAssist,... |

Thanks to Nielsen, we know that, yet again, Android is leader among mobile OSes, now accounting for 43 percent of U.S. smartphones, up from the 39% in July; while Apple's iOS remained at 28 percent over the same period, placing it in distant second. Of course, Apple has a little... |

| NASA-sponsored study finds lengthy spaceflight can impair astronauts' vision Posted: 05 Nov 2011 04:55 AM PDT NASA-sponsored study finds lengthy spaceflight can impair astronauts' vision  NASA-sponsored study finds lengthy spaceflight can impair astronauts' vision NASA has of course long been monitoring the affects of spaceflight on astronauts' health, but a recent study sponsored by the space agency is now shedding some new light on one potentially significant problem: their eyesight. While the study only involved seven astronauts, all reported that they suffered some degree of blurry vision while on the space station for more than six months, and some reported that the effects persisted for... |

| Sony's new 0.7-inch OLED microdisplay packs 720p resolution, has EVFs in its sights Posted: 04 Nov 2011 10:26 PM PDT Sony's new 0.7-inch OLED microdisplay packs 720p resolution, has EVFs in its sights  Sony's new 0.7-inch OLED microdisplay packs 720p resolution, has EVFs in its sights Say howdy to Sony's ECX332A! Excited? We'll, if you're into shooting DSLR video using electronic viewfinders, you might be. This new OLED microdisplay measures in it a mere 0.7-inches, managing an HD resolution of 1280 x 720. As understood by OLED-Info, it features "the same white OLED and color-filters architecture" as the ECX331A (far left), which is the 0.5-inch, 1024 × 768 XGA variant Sony's implemented inside of the EVFs found... |

| Hands On With A Transparent iPhone Posted: 04 Nov 2011 06:51 PM PDT Hands On With A Transparent iPhone  Hands On With A Transparent iPhone Photos were a little hard to grab but I got to see a real, live "transparent" iPhone last night in Shenzhen. The kit is apparently quite easy to install – a few screws on the bottom and then you just slide off the back. I had seen kits advertised before, but this is the first time I've seen on in real life and, oddly enough, it's kind of endearing. One more shot... |

The latest to fall to the liquid fuel-free fad is the multicopter, and its first airborne efforts have been caught on video. Developed by e-volo in Germany, the 80 kg (176.4 lb) prototype uses 16 propellers to push itself aloft and balances itself on all three axes by... |

The program, known as iSpy, allows devious voyeurs to remotely identify and read text typed on touchscreen displays. That, in and of itself, isn't exactly new, but iSpy takes shoulder surfing to slightly terrifying new areas -- namely, those beyond the "shoulder." Developed by Jan-Michael Frahm and Fabian Monrose of... |

In addition to the confirmation, Motorola also issued the following, rather unrevealing statement: "As media and mobility continue to converge, Motorola Mobility's patented technologies are increasingly important for innovation within the wireless and communications industries, for which Motorola Mobility has developed an industry leading intellectual property portfolio.... |
