While I am a big fan of what Samsung is currently doing with Handsets, especially if they contain a Hummingbird Processor, the promo video for the Epic doesn’t do the phone justice. It feels long, and I don’t walk away feeling wowed, even though I know the phone is going to be amazing. Just my 2 cents Sprint.
JKKMobile were lucky enough to get a sweet hands on with one of better Android tablets coming out, the Viliv X10. There is a video of them at Computex having a play with the custom interface, which seems to sit neatly on top of the underlying Android OS and Cortex A8 processor.
Jump over to JKKMobile for the video.
I am so happy to see that people are using all that advanced gaming technology and probably one of the biggest upcoming video games to make a dance video. Best c0uple of minutes you will waste today!
Seems Sony has rounded up a bunch of studios and talked them into entering the 21st century of film distribution. Arriving, sometime this year, a system titled Qriocity will be avaliable on pretty much anything that runs a XMB (Vaio’s, BRAVIA’s, maybe PS3). The system will launch with hundreds of films in both SD and HD formats.
What doesn’t make sense is why it has taken Sony so long to make this happen? They already own a massive studio, and sure it might have taken some time to get 20th Century Fox, Paramount, Walt Disney Pictures, Lionsgate, Warner Brothers, Universal and MGM on board, but they could have started with Sony Classics and grew.
I am hoping for a good value subscription based service, with a local mirror at my ISP and fast cinema to services. I can dream can’t I?

I didn’t make the review, but the great people over at AnythingButiPod did. As a bonus it is a video review. If you are thinking about buying a Sansa View any time soon, I would definitely check it out.

Imagine being the owner of a brand new McLaren F1, with its 0-100KM’s in around 3 seconds. Now imagine there being a sweet deal where you could get them for around $US70k each. That’s the kind of performance and value you will get if purchase the sexy new Nissan GT-R
To start check out this video by Edmunds on Youtube. It’s one of the first true play arounds a journo has had with it and too put it simply, it is a performance monster. The numbers speak for themselves with a 0-100km/h in 3.3 seconds (.2 of a second faster then Nissan said it would be) and doing the sprint (AKA quarter mile) in 11.6 (same time Nissan specified). The GT-R is in super car territory for a quarter of the price a car comparable would cost.
Edmunds also loved its handling and said they could have got more out of it, if they weren’t scared of destroying it. Nissan seem to have done it again, and man do I want to drive (and own) one of these hotties.

Before you guess who wins, consider the Veyron is a 16-cylinder car, that costs a little more then your average M3, at $US1.4 Million. Plus it does output almost 600 HP more than the BMW, so on paper shouldn’t it win? Well it does so stop guessing. Check out the video at YouTube.
