blackberry-playbook

Over at Mobile World Congress Gareth has found his way to the BlackBerry booth to get a demonstration of the BlackBerry PlayBook.

As you will see, one of the BlackBerry team gives Gareth a quick run down of the basic user interface and how wonderful the PlayBook is at true multi tasking.

You will also see Need for Speed and Tetris being played and boy do they look good. I spoke with Gareth afterwards and he said that the PlayBook  ran so smoothly and he was very impressed.

You can see the video after the break and please let us know what you think in the forums.

HTC announce the HTC Flyer (tablet)

Flyer_2

Well we were pretty sure it was about to happen but just moments ago HTC made their first tablet device official. It’s called the HTC Flyer. The name has been out there for a while but the exact specification has been a matter of speculation for a while. Fortunately you can take a look at the full spec further down this post.

In essence the HTC Flyer is a 7" Android tablet running, at launch, with 2.4 Gingerbread. The screen is 600×1024, good for web browsing in landscape and it has a new HTC Sense overlay designed specifically for this tablet.

There’s also a special stylus for precision entry so you’ll be able to write on the screen or use your fingers, the UI will know the difference between the pen and your fingers.

Of the 7″ tablets we’ve seen so far this one is the most attractive and with HTC Sense is stands out from the rest of the Android tablets.

Google Translate for iPhone – Video

iphone-google-translate

There is nothing more frustrating than being on holiday and not being able to ask for something in the native language. That is where Google Translate for the iPhone comes in handy. In fact, maybe invaluable.

As you will see in the video, the application allows you to choose from an array of languages and within a second or two have a translation. And if you don’t fancy trying to pronounce the words in the the other language you can get the iPhone to do it for you.

A simple application but in my opinion a pure genius one.

Enjoy the brief video demo after the break:

HTC 7 Pro unboxing video

HTC-7-pro-main The new HTC 7 Pro only surfaced a few weeks ago but it was the next logical progression for HTC and Windows Phone 7. As with many other HTC handsets that have gone before the ‘Pro’ designation signifies the sliding QWERTY keyboard and just like the HTC Touch Pro 2 the QWERTY keyboard on the HTC 7 Pro has a tilt mechanism.

HTC haven’t been too stingy on the other features either, there’s a 1GHz CPU, 576MB RAM and 512MB ROM and on top of that 8GB of internal storage. Add on the almost obligatory GPS, WiFi and 5 megapixel camera the HTC 7 Pro starts to stack up to being a great little, or not so little, handset.

As always, we’ll have a full review of the HTC 7 Pro for you once we’ve had a chance to thoroughly use the features. For now have a look at the unboxing video below which includes a few minutes looking at the OS.

BlackBerry PlayBook for Business

blackberry-playbook

RIM have this week released another video this time demonstrating the bridge between the PlayBook and a BlackBerry Smartphone. If you are not aware how this works I will explain the basics.

The PlayBook does not (currently) have its own PIN so BBM will not work until the device is paired, via Bluetooth, with a BlackBerry. Once done the PlayBook will then be able to be used for BBM, Calendar, email etc. However, once the connected between the two devices is broken all traces of the calendar and email will not be visible on the PlayBook. Now, although some people may snub this it is certainly great for security. In the unfortunate situation that your PlayBook is stolen your personal emails and calendar will not be accessible by the bad guys as they wont even be on the PlayBook!

Check out the video after the break to see the PlayBook in action:
