Plants vs Zombies on the BlackBerry PlayBook – Video

We told you yesterday that Plants vs. Zombies had arrived for the BlackBerry PlayBook. At that time it held a price tag of £7.00 but later in the day that dropped to £5.00. Still not cheap but as you will see in the following demo video it runs beautifully on the PlayBook.

With PlayBook OS 2.0 coming very very soon and the number of Android developers that have now registered to port their games over to the PlayBook OS I think App World is about to get a whole lot busier.

I have played Plants vs. Zombies on other platforms and it is great that this superb game is now available for us BlackBerry fans.

Updated Facebook app for Windows Phone – Video

We mentioned yesterday that the Facebook application for Windows Phone 7.5 had received a rather nice update so I thought I would record a quick video to demonstrate the app in case you are thinking of jumping on the Windows Phone band wagon.

The following items have been introduced/updated in version 2.3: News feed performance improvements, New panorama design, New profile design, Banner Images, Improved navigation, Pages, Groups, View "likes", Feed filters, Posting privacy and Bug fixing.

The app is now so much better and brings things more on par with the Facebook application on other platforms.

Three Web Cube hands-on video

We showed you the unboxing video of Three’s new Web Cube HSPA+ device yesterday so I thought I had better show you it in action.

As you will see, not only is the Cube easy to use but it has some super cool blue lights, hence why I recorded the video in the dark.

The Web Cube can support up to five devices connected at any one time. It is not only a great back up gadget but also a alternative to having home broadband.

You can view the video below where I demo the Web Cube connected with my BlackBerry PlayBook and as you will see the Cube does a fine job.

Nice one Three.

The Web Cube’s Wi-Fi signal is powered by 3G so it comes ready-to-go with a mobile broadband SIM card. It’s really easy to set up – just plug it in, turn it on and connect using the name and password supplied in the box. You don’t need a phone line to get going, as long as it’s plugged into the mains and your SIM is inserted, our network will do the rest.

The Web Cube is HSPA+ enabled to the 21.1Mbps technical standard, to deliver typical download speeds of 2-5Mbps, comparable to those of entry-level fixed-line broadband solutions, with the potential to reach a maximum download speed in excess of 10Mbps. Up to five Wi-Fi enabled devices can be connected at any one time, including smartphones, laptops and tablets, and it has a range of up to 30 metres.

BlackBerry 7 devices: which one to choose – Video

If you are in the market for a new Blackberry you may or may not be aware that there are now many options when it comes to BlackBerry 7 handsets.

So I thought I would do a short video showing you the differences and highlighting the pros and cons. There isn’t really many cons but price will certainly be a factor.

Bearing in mind that the BlackBerry has now been the best selling Smartphone in the UK in both 2010 and 2011 I cant see that changing over the next twelve months.

So below you will see the Bold 9900, 9790, Torch 9810, 9860, Curve 9360 and even the Porsche Designed P9981!

Which to choose? Well, I’m hoping the video helps.
