GUMDROP RELEASE MUCH ANTICIPATED IPAD 2 CAS

The Drop Series iPad 2 Case from Gumdrop specifically conforms to the shape of the Apple iPad 2 and offers multi-layer protection, making it one of the toughest and most durable cases on the market. The case features rigid plastic protection on the inside and shock absorbing rubber on the outside.

This iPad 2 case features a uniquely replaceable, snap-on integrated screen for maximum protection. This is no "peel-and-stick" membrane, but rather a durable sheet of touch-sensitive plastic that truly performs and protects.

"There are a lot of ruggedized cases coming to market for the iPad 2, but most of them look pretty clunky and are really hard to put together," says Tim Hickman, CEO of Gumdrop Cases. "We made sure we had a unique design and went a step further to include the world's first replaceable touch screen shield. If it gets scratched, you can pop in a new one without having to go buy a new case!"

The Drop Series  ruggedized case for the iPad 2 is designed to take a few knocks and prevent scratching while it's in your sack or while using it. Integrated port covers that stay firmly in place allow you safely take your iPad to the beach, on the trail, or even to a 4 year old's birthday party!

Father & Son app, go live on app store.

MEDL Mobile is a leading mobile development studio with a track record of App Store hits such as Boxhead: The Zombie Wars - a game with nearly 1,000,000 players around the world. But when the team was hired by a father and son with an iPhone dream to create the game, "Fruit Blast", the initial launch didn't go to plan.  The game, which features a fruit-throwing monkey who splats the user's screen with bananas, apples and pears, had all the mechanics of a hit. However, the app never broke through to the top of the App Store. Unflustered, the father/son team recruited family members, friends and colleagues to help tear the game down to it's core elements - and then worked with MEDL to build it back up better and stronger than before.  The result is Fruit Blast 2.0 - with all new graphics, new controls, new animations, a connection to Apple's Game Center, and a host of new features and fun.  "This whole process has been an amazing experience for my son Parker and I." said Mark Lewis. "It's a real world opportunity to teach him about following your dreams, learning from your mistakes, and not giving up on success."  The essence of the game remains the same. A crazed monkey throws fruit at the player, who uses the accelerometer to aim fruit blasting weapons and destroy the flying fruit before it splats all over the screen. But the team analyzed and improved every aspect of the game - from the initial load and help screen - through to the in-game purchases that allow a user to acquire bigger and better weapons.  "I can't wait for feedback from the current users." said Jon Rockmore, a Project Manager from MEDL Mobile. "We stayed true to what the game's fans loved. But we were given a lot of latitude to push the game in every way that made sense."  Fruit Blast will be made available for the first 10,000 downloads for free on the iTunes App Store.  MEDL Mobile is a mobile app incubator, developer, aggregator and marketer. MEDL develops custom native apps for iPhone, iPad and Android for entrepreneurs, corporations, ad agencies and consumer brands.

Dell announces new thin(ish) notebook

Dell today introduced the XPS 15z laptop one of the thinnest 15-inch PCs on the planet[ii], and the first in a series of new thin and powerful products from Dell to come this year. With the XPS 15z, everyone from mobile warriors to students owners now have everything they need to work hard and play hard in one stunning package. 

A leading-edge combination of uncompromising power and stunning design, the XPS 15z offers 2nd-generation Intel Core i5 and Core i7 processors, optional 15.6-inch Full HD (1080p) display for superior entertainment and web-browsing experiences, a backlit keyboard with adjustable brightness and up to eight hours of battery life - all housed in a luxurious, eye-catching and elegantly crafted case that is less than an inch thick. 

The XPS 15z is the first in a series of upcoming thin Inspiron- and XPS-branded products that deliver the ultimate blend of style and performance so you can pursue your personal passions. 

"The XPS 15z delivers uncompromising performance in our most beautifully designed laptop yet," said Sam Burd, vice president of Dell's Consumer and Small/Medium Business product group. "It delivers all the must-have features -- from next-generation Intel Core i processors for incredible performance to optional full HD screens that are up to 50 percent brighter than standard displays - all in a stunning form factor that makes it one of the thinnest 15-inch PC on the planet." 

"The XPS 15z provides a glimpse into a series of visually stunning and powerful systems coming soon to our consumer and small-to-medium-business product portfolio," said Steve Felice, president of Dell's Consumer and Small/Medium Business group. "We're committed to introducing next-generation products that help people pursue their personal and professional passions." 

Less Mass, More Appeal 

A technology package perfect for pumping out spectacular, media-rich office presentations or watching the latest award-winning movies, the XPS 15z includes 2nd generation Intel Core i5 or i7 processors, a brilliant 15.6-inch WLED display with a Full HD option that has almost two times the HD resolution of standard HD displays, NVIDIA graphics with 3DTV play capabilities[iii], built-in WiFi, Bluetooth 3.0, USB 3.0 and a backlit keyboard. 

Despite its incredibly slim exterior, the XPS 15z delivers uncompromising performance, including NVIDIA discrete graphics with Optimus technology that automatically switches to power-saving integrated graphics under reduced workloads, helping the battery last longer on coast-to-coast flights and for movie marathons. In addition, it offers ample hard drive storage and a slot-loading DVD +/- RW drive for watching the latest movies or burning music to a disc. And the optional Full HD (1080p) display brings HDTV-type quality to the laptop screen. 

Advanced wireless features make XPS 15z your go-to device from the road or the living room. Built-in Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity ensure it's fast and easy to connect with e-mail, websites, Skype and Facebook from almost anywhere[iv]. For at-home entertainment, the optional Intel Wireless Display[v] feature enables videos and photos to be streamed wirelessly from your XPS 15z to an HDMI-equipped TV. And with the exclusive Dell Stage user interface, it's easy to access personal content such as music, photos and videos. 

At first glance, the XPS 15z design, with its clean aluminium exterior, appears to float above the surface, and the polished, brushed finishes with sophisticated accents add to a luxurious appearance. 

Priced from £899 including VAT and shipping, the XPS 15z, like all XPS computers, is designed and built from the ground up to provide a premium computing experience with the best materials, technology, performance and reliability Dell offers.

TuneWiki Launches New Social Music Player

TuneWiki announced that its new Social Music Player, launching today on the Android platform, offers the most expansive set of features ever seen in a mobile music player. In its simplest form, users can enjoy the new player to listen to music while viewing synchronized lyrics.  For those looking for deeper and more social engagement, TuneWiki also offers an extensive and immersive set of discovery features new to music services, including the ability to create a unique and personalized music profile that can be shared with their friends.

 

TuneWiki’s Social Music Player, with a completely re-designed user interface, continues to offer its award-winning feature for real-time, subtitled lyrics that are displayed while users listen to their music.  Lyrics are instantly translated into more than 40 languages, maintaining TuneWiki’s role as the global lyrics resource for music lovers.  Users can still seamlessly connect to other streaming radio apps such as SHOUTcast™, music videos, on-demand services, and TuneWiki’s best-selling music game, Lyric Legend.   Users can now also download the beta version of a new desktop application on TuneWiki that provides synchronized lyrics and the ability to sync music from a desktop library to a mobile device.

 

Creating the ultimate destination for music discovery, the new Social Music Player allows TuneWiki users to view and sample songs that others are listening to around the world through Song Maps or by exploring the geo-specific Top 50 charts.  Users can find their friends on their social network of choice, or discover and follow like-minded music fans through the Song Maps feature.  These friends or music fans then become a user’s ‘Muse,’ and the music that a Muse listens to is automatically deposited into a SongBox within the app that becomes the central location for song recommendations.  As a user’s network of Muses grows, so will his or her ability to discover new music.

 

Additionally, users will have the unique ability to discover more music from their favorite or newly discovered artists by seeing not only the songs they own by these artists, but also the songs they don’t--with the opportunity to then immediately sample, purchase or view a music video for that song.  The newly designed company website recreates the mobile experience on the web so users can watch music videos with lyrics, view their profile, find and follow Muses, and add or edit lyrics to songs.

 

“In today’s digital age, there are many different ways for people to enjoy music, and we want all of these users to have a place where they can come together as a community,” said Larry Goldberg, CEO of TuneWiki. “Our new player builds upon the engaging listening experience that has excited TuneWiki fans for years by adding the ability to discover new songs and artists enjoyed by others, creating a comprehensive listening and social environment not found in any other music application.”

SEAGATE DEBUTS FIRST STORAGE FOR iOS DEVICES

Seagate, today announced GoFlex Satellite™ mobile wireless storage, the first battery-powered external hard drive to wirelessly extend the storage capacity of any Wi-Fi enabled mobile device. With 500GB and Wi-Fi access over 802.11 b/g/n and a rechargeable battery, this latest member of the GoFlex® family provides the ability to carry an entire library of video, music, pictures and documents with you. Devices are wirelessly connected directly to the GoFlex Satellite drive by use of the free GoFlex Media™ app—available now on iTunes and the Apple App Store—or a web browser.

GoFlex Satellite is available immediately for preorder from Seagate.com, Amazon and BestBuy.com for a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $199.99, and is scheduled to arrive in Best Buy stores in July 2011.  Global availability is planned for later this summer. 

“With the growth of the tablet and iPad markets and the larger volumes of high-quality media now being consumed, there is a clear need for access to content that is not plagued with the challenges of streamed video over the Internet,” said Patrick Connolly, vice president and general manager of Seagate’s retail group. “The unfortunate fact is that these popular new mobile devices are hampered by their limited storage capacity while one of their primary functions is that of media consumption.

“With the GoFlex Satellite mobile wireless storage, we wished to create an elegant solution that provides real value to the multitude of iPad users out there by delivering a seamless connection to local storage. No longer will a consumer feel as though it is a compromise to purchase a lower capacity tablet or iPad. With GoFlex Satellite, people will be able to carry their entire media library with them without the need for wires or the web at a fraction of the cost of adding 3G or purchasing or a higher capacity tablet.”

 

Streaming over the Internet has enabled video access for tablet owners, but the quality is at the mercy of the Internet connection, be it over Wi-Fi or 3G/4G. With more connected devices per hotspot, it’s often difficult to watch video without choppiness or pixilation. Rather than rely on a buffered stream from a distant provider, GoFlex Satellite mobile storage wirelessly serves up media content as a local attached storage for up to three devices at the same time. With a stand-by battery life of up to 25 hours, the powerful lithium polymer battery delivers up to 5 hours of continuously streaming video. To help with extending battery life, the free GoFlex Media™ app provides a progressive download feature, which temporarily loads the video on to the iOS device it is being streamed to, allowing the drive to go into stand-by mode.  

 

 

GoFlex Media™ App

Initially available for Apple iOS devices, such as: iPad, iPhone and iPod touch; the GoFlex Media app provides a seamless way to connect the mobile wireless storage to your iPad or iPhone. The Android app is expected to be available by this summer. Those that currently use an Android smartphone or tablet can access content on a GoFlex Satellite device through its browser. 

 

Media Sync software

The easy-to-use Media Sync software, also included free with purchase, makes grabbing media from a Windows® PC or Mac® OS X computer a breeze. Wherever the files are stored, whether that is a file structure of your own creation or in an iTunes library, the Media Sync software will load all of your desired music, videos, photos and documents on to the GoFlex Satellite drive. Media Sync is easily configured to only place files on the drive that are compatible with your iOS device. Even music and videos purchased through iTunes can be loaded to the GoFlex Satellite drive and will play on all authorized devices. 

 

Loading Media

For rapid loading of media content, the wireless mobile storage comes equipped with the superfast USB 3.0 cable to get files from your computer to the GoFlex Satellite drive. The USB 3.0 cable will also continue to work with USB 2.0 ports and is easily removed for portability. In addition to the USB 3.0 cable, the GoFlex Satellite drive comes complete with a car charger and a compact wall charger.

Premium Design and Performance

HTC Sense for Tablet

HTC Flyer’s tablet-focused HTC Sense experience focuses on surprising and delighting people with its gorgeous 3D home screen. Similar to the experience unveiled on the new HTC Sensation, a unique carousel of widgets puts your most important content and information at the visual center of the experience and offers uncompromised Web browsing with Flash 10 and HTML 5. 

 

Streaming Mobile Movies with HTC Watch

The HTC Flyer is the first tablet to premiere HTC Watch, HTC’s new video download service, offering more than 600 premium movies and TV shows from major studios. Video content can be bought or rented and watched immediately through progressive download. Once purchased, movies are stored in a “cloud locker”, allowing up to five registered HTC devices to download and play the same content.

 

HTC Scribe Technology                                                                    

HTC Scribe Technology introduces a wave of integrated digital ink innovations that make it easy and natural to take notes, sign contracts, draw pictures, or even write on a web page or photo. Note-taking has been made smart for the first time by synchronising natural onscreen handwriting with Timemark audio recording. Tapping on a word in your notes instantly takes you to that exact place in time in the audio recording, ensuring you can place your notes in the context of any conversation or meeting. Notes are also integrated with the calendar so when there is an appointment reminder you are automatically prompted with an opportunity to begin a new note or in the case of recurring meetings, to continue where the last meeting left off.  In an industry first, the HTC Flyer tablet also features built-in synchronization with Evernote, the world-leading notes application and service.
