It’s here people! Those of you who aren’t like me and the million (and counting) that pre-ordered Battlefield 3 and got exclusive access to the beta 48 hours earlier than you did will be able to start playing until October 10th, today. PC users can download the files through Origin, Xbox 360 users can find it on the Xbox Live marketplace, and PS3 users will find it in PSN. So far the game is amazing, and I’ve reached rank 12, with an M16A3 customized to use a holographic sight, ACOG, red dot sight, heavy barrel, laser sight, suppressor, foregrip, or flashlight and a M9 tactical pistol as a sidearm. Watch out for me as Stef_LAPTOPMEMO.
In the meantime, what are you waiting for? Get on the battlefield! Via: Battlefield
There are three types of Kindle now (all seen above). The first is the successor to the main line — this $79 model, seen center. Then there’s the
Whoa. The Amazon Kidnle Fire tablet is using Android, but in the most minimal way possible. You’d never guess it’s Android, and Amazon would probably never remind you. It has no microphone, no camera, no 3G, and certainly no high price tag — it’s $199 and has Wi-Fi. The screen is 7-inches and has a Gorilla Glass 1024×600 IPS resolution at 161DPI, the processor is a 1GHz TI OMAP dual-core setup, the Amazon App Store is included with over 10,00 apps, and there only is 8GB of onboard storage. Also, new owners of the Kindle Fire ill have a 30-day trial of Amazon Prime free, which will works for streaming multimedia like movies and TV shows, a fast web browser based off of Amazon Silk, which is cloud browsing that is incredibly quick, and the whole thing weighs only 14.6 ounces. The expected launch date is mid-November and is on pre-order today. Also interesting to note is that is comes pre-configured just like the original Kindle and requies no syncing, just OTA updates.
The HTC Radar 4G is a Windows Phone 7.5 Mango handset, complete with 4G HSPA+ data connectivity. What makes the Radar 4G quite interesting however is the white exterior, and besides the aforementioned a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 3.7-inch display, a 5-megapixel camera with a single LED flash, and finally 512MB of RAM for multitasking during use of Mango. As for a release date and price, the time frame is during the holidays, but a price is not mentioned anywhere in the press release, seen after the break.
The HTC Amaze 4G is a hyperphone (to be honest, I made that up)! Going up to 42MBps download speeds, both smartphones average 8 MBps to 20MBps data speeds in tests made by T-Mobile. The Amaze 4G contains an 8 megapixel camera much like the myTouch 4G Slide, has a 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor, 4.3-inch qHD screen, and the high price tag of $259.99. In Samsung’s en of 42MBps territory, the Galaxy S II for T-Mobile has the same 1.5GHz processor, 1080pHD video recording on its 8 megapixel camera, and a 4.5-inch screen with a lower resolution than the Amaze 4G’s (800×480 versus 960×540). The Amaze 4G is available October 10th and the Galaxy S II on October 12th for $229.99. Press release after the break.
So, Samsung. You have a competitor to HTC’s rampage of Windows Phone Mango handsets? The correct answer is “yes”. The Omnia W packs a Super AMOLED 3.7-inch 800×480 display, a 1.4GHz Snapdragon processor, 5 megapixel camera at the back with AF and 720p HD video recording, a front-facing VGA, and of course, Windows Phone 7.5 “Mango” included at launch. Availability is in Italy at the end of October, followed by all territories except the U.S., of course. Thankfully though, this sounds very similar to the
