HTC may be working on 16-megapixel Windows Phone 7 device

Posted in HTC by Conner Flynn on April 18th, 2011


A new video ad has emerged that reveals that HTC is reportedly planning on releasing a Windows Phone 7 smartphone with a 16-megapixel camera, which would be a first for the industry. HTC’s most advanced smartphones currently have only eight-megapixel cameras. The phone in the video looks like the Desire S, though that phone uses Android and is probably just a temporary stand in for now.

We don’t have any other specs for this unnamed WP7 phone, but the video shows dual LED flashes. We will just have to wait and see what else emerges.

LG Optimus 2X to get Gingerbread in mid-2011

Posted in LG by Conner Flynn on April 14th, 2011

LG has said that Gingerbread will be forthcoming for its dual-core Optimus 2X Android handset, but aside from that they have been pretty quiet on the issue. Now we have word from LG’s Danish support site that the P990 (aka the 2X) will be updated to Android 2.3 “in June-July 2011.”

That’s later than we were all hoping for, but still, better late than never. Though it should be noted that LG has a history of inconsistency when it comes to software roadmaps, so we will see if they hold to that timeframe.

Posted in Media Streamers by Conner Flynn on April 13th, 2011

The $367 Hauppauge PCTV Broadway 2T will stream TV to any iOS device, Mac or PC with no third party app required. And Android support is expected to be added within a few weeks. It doesn’t require a computer either. It connects to your wired or wifi network and contains dual DVB-T tuners to enable streaming of a TV signal to a host device either over a home network or the internet.

The 2T also features USB and video inputs so you can stream video from your USB device or set top box. You can even connect it to an analog camera to create a remote home surveillance system viewable on an iPad or iPhone. This is one handy device that should be well worth the money.

Posted in Tablet PC by Conner Flynn on April 13th, 2011

Hannspree tablets aren’t among the most popular in the US, but they do have a habit of showing up in Europe. So you know the name, even if you don’t own any of their products. A Hannspree tablet roadmap has now surfaced, showing the company’s tablet plans for this year.

Hannspree is already offering a 10 inch tablet with a 1024 x 600 pixel display and NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor, but soon a cheaper model with a Texas Instruments chip will be available. Both models have WiFi, Bluetooth, and Google Android 2.2. If it’s Android 3.0 Honeycomb you want, you’ll have to wait until the third quarter of the year.

Posted in HTC by Conner Flynn on April 12th, 2011

The highly anticipated HTC Flyer tablet will hit European stores on May 9. That solves the question of when it will arrive in the Uk, but we still don’t know when the seven-inch Android device will be upgraded from Android 2.4 to Android 3.0 which is tablet-optimized and used by competing devices.

What about pricing? Well, earlier leaks for the UK had the unlocked 3G, 32GB version at £600 ($982). In Germany, the same device costs about the same at 669 Euros ($904).
