Making a Fallout Pip-boy out of an Android Phone

September 6, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This Pip-boy is pretty cool. It’s pretty advanced – well; it does plenty. It may not do everything but it sure does a lot for a Pip-Boy 3000. I think the most cool aspect of this design is that it makes use of an HTC Desire HD. That’s a good use of Android tech. Could […]

Is this the leaked Dell Peju tablet?

July 11, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We might never know if this video is a real leak of Dell’s Peju tablet as there may be design changes still to be made. It looks real though. Why? A lot of effort on the video but not really all that much to show. A fake, I think, would have faked more. This blogger […]

Sony’s new Android S1 and S2 tabs: one sparkles, one spooks

June 17, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I don’t think the second of these videos are supposed to be spooky… but it is. How come? It’s the gradual creep, the slowness, and the silence. However, let’s distract ourselves with the first ad. This is shiny. This promises the latest in Android tablet tech. Tech that can talk to your PlayStation. The S2 […]

Google puts the blood moon in your phone

June 15, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There will be a blood moon tonight – a total lunar eclipse. It will be a long one too, lasting for about 100 minutes, that’s the longest since the year 2000. The ecplise starts at about 6:20pm BST (for UK readers) and about 11:20am PDT (for US readers) but, of course, there’s a catch. In […]

Swype 3: Search and Poke for Android tablets

June 14, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’m a big fan of Swype. It’s a custom keyboard for Android phones – and now, with Swype 3, for tablets. The bad news for iOS users is that these sorts of apps are illegal in the Apple ecosystem because they replicate features that Apple themselves wish to provide (generally, in Apple’s eyes, to preserve […]

Amazon opens for Toshiba Thrive, the Android tablet, pre-orders in the States

June 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Eagle eyed geeks have noticed that Amazon in the States (not elsewhere such as tech hungry UK) have published pre-order pages for the Toshiba Thrive. This is an Android 3.1 tablet. The RRP starts at $429.99 and that gets you 10.1″ high-res LED screen with Toshiba’s auto-adjusting brightness, duel front and back cameras, two speakers […]

Mobile Review: Samsung Galaxy Mini

June 5, 2011 by Graham Gibson Leave a Comment

I have long been of the belief that technology is an enabler. Used properly it can educate, entertain, and generally enhance the quality of our lives. I am also firmly of the belief that in order for the maximum number of people to benefit from technology, cost should not be a barrier to entry. Samsung […]

Sony’s S1 and S2 Android tablets are mondo sexhay!

April 26, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Okay folks! You’ll have seen the news that Sony has finally announced they’ll be doing Android tablets. Both devices are PlayStation certified, use mobile and wifi, run Android 3.0 and can even be used as a remote. The S2, in particular, has my eye. It looks more travel friendly. It can also be used as […]
