Mac OS X 10.6.6 bringt App Store direkt ins DockApple hat heute wie angekündigt den App Store für Mac OS X gestartet. Über die Software-Aktualisierung von Snow Leopard steht das System-Update 10.6.6 zur Verfügung, welches ein Programm namens App Store enthält, das sich nach dem Update praktischerweise gleich im Dock befindet. Über 1.000 Apps sollen bereits verfügbar sein, darunter auch Apples iLife- und iWork-Programme, die nun einzeln zum Preis von 12 Euro (iLife) bzw. 16 Euro (iWork) angeboten werden. Neue Versionen sind allerdings nicht dabei. Zur Eröffnung des neuen Stores gibt es auch einige Sonderangebote.

Twitter for Mac 2.0: A first look
The first Mac app I downloaded this morning after finishing the update to Mac OS X 10.6.6 was Twitter for Mac 2.0. This is the app formerly named Tweetie, and it's a free download from the Mac App Store.
If you have previously used another Twitter client on your Mac, or if you're currently using the eponymous Twitter app on iOS, then you're going to want to at least give Twitter for Mac a try. Here's how to get Twitter from the App Store. Note that you must be running 10.6.6 on an Intel Mac to use this app.
For those who are using Twitter on iPad, the decision to install Twitter for Mac 2.0 should be a no-brainer. The user interface is remarkably similar to what you're use

Samsung 4G LTE Smartphone for Verizon first hands-on!
The white curtains just lifted here at the Samsung booth at CES to unveil the Samsung 4G LTE Smartphone. This Verizon LTE-ready beast touts a Super AMOLED Plus display, runs Android 2.2 with TouchWiz and features a front-facing cam. On the rear it's got an 8 megapixel auto-focus shooter and mini HDMI on the hip. We're busy sorting out details and grabbing pics more. Stay tuned!

Pandigital 7- and 9-inch Android tablets hands-on
Pandigital isn't beating around the bush with the two tablets it's showing here at CES -- they run Android 2.1, they're not getting Froyo, and they're most certainly not getting Honeycomb. These slates come in 7 and 9-inch varieties, and the 9-inch Novel comes in both AT&T 3G and WiFi-only models. To rub salt in the wound, these guys don't have any Android Market support, and they won't be getting it any time soon (or ever, for that matter). On the bright side though, you get B&N's Nook app pre-installed on the Novel (get it?). Unfortunately, we're most upset that Pandigital hasn't see

Rock Band Mobile will let four players jam over Verizon's 4G LTE network
There's no shortage of applications out there to demonstrate the potential of Verizon's 4G LTE network, but Electronic Arts' just showed off one of the more impressive ones to date at its CES 2011 press conference. It demoed its forthcoming Rock Band Mobile game for Android, which will let up to four players "jam together over the network," making it the first game that can be played with friends over the network at launch. Not much more than that to go on at the moment, but we're certainly eager to try this one out for ourselves.

Visteon puts an iPad in a car dashboard, we go hands-on (video)
We happen to think the future of the car dashboard is a gradual path to obsolescence, dying and getting replaced by a mobile device. Visteon also think there's a future for mobile devices in a dash -- but not for actually replacing the car stereo. Visteon showed off its Consumer Electronics Device to Vehicle HMI (human/machine interface), which is basically a stupidly long name for a system enabling device integration of the sort we haven't seen yet. Yes, you can stream tunes through the car's stereo but, more impressively, actually change the channel that it is tuned to.

We didn't get a chance to try out the camera, unfortunately, and LG's still unsure to what extent it'll skin over the Android OS. Check out the pics below!

HTC Thunderbolt first hands-on (update: video!)
It may not have a dual-core processor, but the 4.3-inch HTC Thunderbolt is a beauty to behold -- not to mention a speed demon with Verizon LTE on board. We just got our paws on the 1GHz Snapdragon-powered Android 2.2 handset at CES 2011, and immediately fired off packets in an online speedtest. While we're not entirely certain Verizon's building-penetrating 700Mhz frequencies would typically work deep in the heart of Las Vegas' Venetian Hotel, it definitely did here, delivering nearly 18Mbps and loading full websites in a snap. The Desire HD-inspired hardware itself is no slouch either, with a solid if oh-so-slightly hollow build, a responsive glass touchpanel, and positively lovely colors from the 4.3-inch Super LCD screen -- a coup for HTC in and of itself -- and the

Bluelounge's Nest iPad stand on display at CES 2011
One of the first things we did on the show floor here at CES today was stop by the Bluelounge booth. The company was showing off its latest product, called the Nest, an iPad stand due to sell for $14.95 when it arrives in stores later on this year. There are plenty of iPad stands here at CES (and you'll hear about more of them this week), but the Nest's difference is that it doesn't even look like an iPad stand -- it looks more like a little dish with a rubber grip around the outside lip. If you lay your iPad across the top, it will hold in place either horizontally or vertically, or there's also a little tray that pulled out of the back that will hold up the device at a sharper angle.
Since it's just a molded piece of plastic, there's not a lot of customization -- you can't

OpenPeak debuts OpenTablet 10 with transflective display
We're still waiting for OpenPeak's OpenTablet 7 to be released, but the company's now already moving on to bigger and potentially better things -- it's just announced the Atom-based, Android-running OpenTablet 10. In addition to being larger, the screen is also of the transflective variety, and it's built from Gorilla Glass so it'll hold up to some abuse while you're using it outside. Otherwise, the one-pound, half inch-thick device packs dual cameras including a front-facing 720p cam, an HDMI out for 1080p video, a digital MEMS microphone, and optional 3G connectivity in addition to the standard WiFi.

Though it's just being called the "Samsung 4G LTE Smartphone" at this point, rest assured: the Android-powered device is very much real and very much destined for Verizon's airwaves. Though the inclusion of LTE is obviously a high point, the phone's claim to fame might be that it'll be among the first devices in the world to feature one of Sammy's newfangled Super AMOLED Plus displays (4.3 inches, in this case) that offers even better contrast and outdoor viewability than the original Super AMOLED did.

This one is strictly a Verizon special, stuffing in an LTE modem (while maintaining backward compatibility with Big Red's 3G network), adding another 200MHz to the Hummingbird processor for a grand total of 1.2GHz, and moving the rear camera from 3 megapixels to 5.

SRS Labs wants us to forget about our speakers
SRS Labs' suite was sportin' a number a devices showcasing Surround Everywhere, technology that lets you enjoy surround sound anywhere you go, laptops, phones, so yeah, anywhere. But the coolest thing we came away with was their vision of how surround sound should be mastered. Many in the industry are strungling with the transition from 5.1 to 7.1 and let's face it, about the time the studios get their arms around 7.1, we'll be asking for 9.1. So this new idea is to record where the audio is supposed to come from, instead of which speaker it should be played on. This way a movie would never need its audio remastered again, because the fact that the plane coming in at 2 O'Clock wouldn't change no matter how many speakers you had, it wouldn't even matter if you had a speaker placed precisely at 2 O'Clock.

Dell Streak 7 first hands-on!
We just touched the Streak 7 for the first time, and if we had to sum it up, we'd say this thing is a giant Streak (the 5-inch version, that is) without an earpiece. That's not necessarily a bad thing considering that the Streak was a little too big to be a great phone and a little too small to be a great tablet; the glossy, curved design elements have never been the problem, and they look just as good here. The screen seems a bit washed-out -- it might not be the highest-quality thing in the world -- nor did it seem unusually speedy, though we're hoping Tegra 2 ends up kicking butt once the software's optimized.

Buy once, install everywhere with Mac App Store
One of my favorite parts about the new Mac App Store is that it is "buy one, run everywhere" just like iOS apps on the iPad or iPhone/iPod touch. It has always been the case that you can buy an app at the iOS App Store and use it on all of your iOS devices.
"Desktop" software has often been frustratingly limited to one or two computers. I'm thinking especially of the new Microsoft Office suite, but there are many, many other apps (especially ones from Adobe) which ties a license to a single (or sometimes two) machine.
If you buy, say, The Incident for Mac for $3 from the Mac App Store, you can use it on all of your Macs.

T-Mobile upgrading HSPA+ network to 42Mbps this year
Seems like T-Mobile's fed up with claims that its network isn't truly 4G -- starting today, it's doubling the bandwidth of HSPA+ to 42 megabits per second as promised. They've conducting a live test in Las Vegas on the CES 2011 stage, playing some online multiplayer Need for Speed, but it won't be limited to the City of Sin for long -- fully two-thirds of its existing 200 million HSPA+ subscribers will find blazing transfer speeds by the end of the year as the improvements roll out. Next stop -- 650Mbps.

Missing Mac apps we hoped we'd see
After the shock of seeing the Mac OS X 10.6.6 update and Mac App Store arrive early this morning, as opposed to the 12 PM ET launch we expected, many of the TUAW bloggers began browsing the virtual aisles to see what was for sale. While there were a few surprises, there were also some apps that were missing that we had really hoped for.
First and foremost, the absence of iWork '11 from the Mac App Store was a shocker. I was particularly dismayed, as I'm scheduled to write a book about the productivity suite whenever it finally arrives. iWork '11 isn't the only Apple software that was a no-show -- iWeb and iDVD are nowhere to be found. The Final Cut Studio suite? Nowhere. And even FaceTime, an app that we speculated might go from bet

Viewsonic introduces the first TV with Boxee (& Intel) inside
Say hello to the latest hardware news from Boxee, as Viewsonic was showing its new TV amongst its existing Android tablet lineup featuring the software and requisite Intel CE4100 processor built in. It didn't appear to integrate live TV or other inputs into the Boxee software, instead of opting to run the software as its own app, offering a similar experience to the existing Boxee Box, minus the box of course.

Skype announces plans to acquire Qik
Well, we can't say we saw this one coming, but Skype has just dropped a bombshell right in the middle of CES -- it's announced plans to acquire rival video calling company Qik. No terms of the deal have been disclosed, but Skype says that the transaction is expected to close this month. According to Skype, the two companies will "focus on providing a richer, more integrated experience that will allow people globally to share experiences in real-time video across different platforms," and it notes that Qik's "deep engineering capabilities and strong mobile relationships will be an impressive complementary fit with Skype." Head on past the break for the official press release.

Das herausragende Feature dürfte WiFi Direct sein, auf das wir schon seit der Ankündigung im Oktober sehnsüchtig warten. (Auch wenn das Galaxy S im Prinzip WiFi Direct können sollte).

Why isn't Mac App Store in iTunes?

Idapt's i2+ universal charging dock rejuvenates your Nexus S and iPhone 4... simultaneously
We've come a long way since 2008, eh? Not only has the Idapt i2+ seen a massive external makeover compared to the original, but this one supports the simultaneously charging of three mobile / USB devices. The "universal" charging dock ships with a cornucopia of tips, enabling it to juice up a Nexus One, BlackBerry, iPod, iPhone, PSP, GPS system or pretty much any combination of handheld gizmos on the market. Two docking ports are arranged on the top, and a spare USB port allows a third item of your choice to receive new life via a tether. It'll ship in "an assortment of colors" this spring, but it look

Apple paying Beatles directly in iTunes deal, sources claim
In order to secure the Beatles' music for iTunes, Apple agreed to pay the band's company (Apple Corps) directly, according to industry sources contacted by Reuters. The newswire agency notes that under a typical music contract, a label distributes a record, licenses songs from publishers, collects revenue from retailers and then makes royalty payments to the artists and the publisher. In the case of the Beatles and iTunes though, the digital download royalties are said to be going straight to Apple Corps, while the songwriting mechanical royalties are going to Sony

Lack of receipt checking could enable Mac App Store piracy
Not long after the Mac App Store opened, several warnings via Twitter began to surface. "You did implement receipt checking so that people can't pirate your app. Yes?" developer Nik Fletcher (also one of our former writers here at TUAW) asked his followers. Ged Maheux at the Iconfactory also pointed out that he was able to run a for-pay app purchased by another person, and run it on 10.5 and 10.6.5 Macs as well -- none of which should be happening, it would seem.
Receipt checking is the process that lets developers verify that the app is installed as a valid purchase by checking the embedded purchase receipt, which is included (in encry

Victorinox Swiss Army debuts Slim, Slim Duo and Secure SSD USB drives, we go hands-on
Victorinox has been putting a Swiss Army spin on USB drives for some time now, and it's just rolled into CES with its latest batch: the Slim, Slim Duo and Secure SSD. In addition to being slim, the first two of those are also available in flight-friendly versions sans knife and, as you can probably discern from the name, the Duo actually packs two USB drives for up to 128GB of storage (compared to 64GB for the standard Slim). The Secure SSD, on the other hand, packs up 256GB of storage, an integrated Bistable LCD/e-Paper display, secure data encryption and, of course, a Swiss Army knife.

Ohh, this ain't cool. According to the roughly gazillion complaints we received this morning upon the launch of Apple's Mac App Store, users are seeing the ol' "unknown error occurred (100)" message when first launching the store after the upgrade. According to TUAW, it's a problem with the iTunes Terms and Conditions -- which some users aren't getting prompted to accept, hence the error message. What should you do if you get the error? Quit the store and reload it. If that doesn't work, folks are finding that rebooting and then launching the store again does the trick.

It turns out that I don't need to upgrade my glasses, just my recognition skills. The new App Store icon is automatically installed into your Dock under 10.6.6, just to the right or below the OS X finder icon, into the second slot on your Dock.
App Store is an application, just like most of the other items in the top or left portion of your Finder Dock. Removing it from the Dock adds a little room back into your applications collection -- and you can do this without losing access to it from Finder. The secret is that App Store is built right into the Apple menu at the top-left of your finder window. Why take up precious Dock space

AT&T slashes price of iPhone 3GS to $49
Tomorrow the US$99.00 iPhone 3GS will be half that. That's the word from the Wall Street Journal and other media outlets. It's not a big surprise. AT&T will likely lose iPhone exclusivity any time now, and they want to lock customers in to 2-year contracts before that happens. It's also not the first sale on the 3GS, as Radio Shack recently had a similar promotion.
Apple still lists the 3GS at $99.00 on its own website. The 3GS would make for a good starter smartphone for many people, but lacks FaceTime, the retina display, HD video recording and HDR for stills.

AirStash wireless flash drive with media streaming and WebDAV update hands-on (video)
Remember our good friends from AirStash at last year's CES? Well, this year they're back with the same wireless storage dongle, but now bolstered with a new firmware and smarter ways of transferring files to and from your mobile devices. As before, the AirStash is essentially an SD card reader that can be accessed as an ordinary USB storage device, or a basic read-only file server via WiFi tethering, meaning the host device doesn't require a card reader or a USB host. Upon requests from many users, AirStash is now finalising an HTML5-based web app and a free native iOS app, both of which offer in-app image browsing and media streaming, incl

Honeycomb will not require dual-core CPU as minimum hardware spec
Oh, never mind then. Google's ever-informative and ever-knowledgeable Dan Morrill has disabused the world from the bogus belief that Android's "made for tablets" iteration, aka Honeycomb, will require a dual-core processor as a minimum to run. Dan says there are no specific CPU requirements for aspiring Android 3.0 tablets to meet and we should all sit back, relax, and enjoy our breakfast. That's reassuring to note, but let's not read more into it than what's s

Buy individual iWork, iLife apps from the Mac App Store
Apple's iWork suite is a nice collection, but some users don't need all three apps. Fortunately, the Mac App Store lets you pick and choose between iWork and iLife apps. Starting today, you can buy and install only the apps you want for US$20 each. For iWork customers, that means Pages, Numbers and Keynote. Buy all three and spend $60. That's a savings of $40.
Now some of you are probably saying "$40? But iWork '09 only cost $80? So if I can get them for $60, that's a savings of $20." Ah, but you are forgetting that the app you are buying can be used on 5 computers, meaning that you are rea

Microsoft's first Windows Phone 7 update coming this month?
It's no secret that Microsoft is anxious to get copy / paste functionality rolled out to Windows Phone 7 users on the double. In his CES keynote last night, Steve Ballmer himself said that it'd be coming soon -- but a little hint on Microsoft's site indicates that it might be coming as soon as this month: the URL Microsoft is using for the update's details page includes "january-update.aspx" in it, which we'd say is pretty telling.

Mac App Store: Die ersten Eindrücke
Seit kurzer Zeit steht der bereits seit längerem angekündigte (wir berichteten) App Store für Macs zum Download zur Verfügung. Wie bereits bekannt war, kommt der App Store als eigene OS X Applikation daher. Optisch lehnt sich dieser an das gewohnte Layout vom iTunes Store an. Ausserdem benötigt man auch wie im iTunes Store eine «Apple ID» mit gültiger Kreditkarte. Von Vorteil: Es lassen sich auch im neuen App Store die oft günstiger zu beziehenden iTunes Cards einlösen.
Als erstes fällt die App «Twitter» auf, welche mit Version 2.0 als Nachfolger von «Tweetie» gilt. Mit dieser Aktualisierung, welche jetzt auch wie die Mobile Apps für iPhone und iPad direkt von «Twitter Inc.» unterhalten werden, profitieren Benutzer nun von einer neuen graphischen Oberfläche und neuen Maus-Gesturen.
Auch diverse Software aus dem Hause Apple lassen sich neu über den App Store herunterladen, beispielsweise die ganze iLife- und iWork-Palette sowie Aperture. Für viele Anwender ist sicherlich interessant, dass sich die einzelnen

The docks we saw were prototypes only, so they weren't actually running any music from an iOS device, but eventually, they will stream music directly from any iOS 4.2 or higher equipped device through the AirPlay protocol.
The docks come in three different models -- the Studio model is the smallest, and it can fill a small room with sound for US$399, the Forum model is a little bigger for $599 and the Arena model, above, checks in at a whopping $799. That'

Mac App Store reporting "Error 100"? Here's what to do
Many users, including a few of us here at TUAW Towers, have had the release of the Mac App Store this morning blighted by the message We could not complete your App Store request. An unknown error occurred (100).
The fix for this seems to be simple. The release of the Mac App Store has provoked yet another set of iTunes Terms and Conditions for us all to agree with (seriously, Apple, I think we can all agree we've surely agreed enough by now?), but the App Store seems to be flakey about reporting this to you. Quitting the Store and reloading it appears to be enough to bring it to life; you'll know when you get it right because you'll be walked through the usual T&Cs process.

But we did get to open the door of the Tesla Model S, testing out the trick powered door handles that motor themselves out after a touch and then, when the door is closed, zip back flush to the sheet metal.

Es muss ja nicht immer ein iPod touch sein. Samsung macht jetzt das, was Apple vorgemacht hat: ein Galaxy S Smartphone ohne Mobilfunk. Runde Sache, nicht nur wegen der Ecken. Ein zweiter Lautsprecher soll den Sound des PMPs verbessern, die koreanische Variante verfügt außerdem über einen TV-Empfänger. Mal sehen, ob wir auch in den Genuss kommen werden.

Apple's Mac App Store goes live
Well it's official boy and girls -- Apple's Mac App Store is live as of this morning, and available to use and abuse via a Snow Leopard update (version 10.6.6 to be exact).

The Store will launch with over 1,000 titles, including Apple standards like the iLife suite broken out into separate parts (iPhoto, iMovie, GarageBand) selling for $14.99 each, Pages, Keynote, and Numbers for $19.99 apiece, and the bank-breaking Aperture for $79.99.

TUAW's Daily App: Push-Up Wars
I'm a big fan of DailyBurn for tracking weight and nutrition. While a lot of iPhone users stand by the Lose It! app for that sort of thing (and rightfully so, it's a good one), I prefer to have a service that's accessible from any browser, and DailyBurn (formerly known as Gyminee) is the one I've tried and liked the best. Earlier today, while adding far too many calories to my nutrition record (CES and its various events are not being kind to my diet this week), I noticed that DailyBurn has another app out called Push-Up Wars, designed to help you track your push-up ability.

Bilder und Videos zeigen verändertes iPhone-Antennen-Design
Seit Gestern Mittwoch macht im Internet eine Bilder-Serie die Runde, die angeblich ein künftiges iPhone-Design zeigen soll. Die Bilder stammen von Global Direct Parts, einem Ersatzteil-Anbieter. Zu sehen sind iPhone-Antennen-Bauteile die sich jedoch von jenen des aktuellen iPhone 4 unterscheiden. Die Antennen-Konstruktion wurde verändert — so findet sich bei den abgebildeten Komponenten auf der linken Seite oberhalb der Regler anstatt oben neben der Kopfhörer-Buchse eine schwarze Abgrenzung zwischen den Antennen. Eine weitere Abgrenzung findet sich neu auf der linken Seite ganz oben gleich nach der Biegung (in etwa auf Höhe Kamera/Telefon-Speaker). Die Gerüchte flammten nach der Veröffentlichung der Bilder natürlich sofort auf: Es könnte sich dabei um ein neues Antennen-Design für das iPhone 4 handeln, oder für ein schon länger gemunkeltes iPhone 4 mit neu auch CDMA, oder gar für das iPhone 5. Einige vermuten auch, dass es sich dabei schlicht um einen alten iPhone 4 Prototypen handelt — oder schlicht ein Fake

"We've actually been talking about this for years, going back to 2006," Murray told TUAW today.
Fawkner actually showed Murray a prototype of his company's Puzzle Quest game back in the day, and that reportedly encouraged Murray to start a game of his own, which eventually became Flight Control, which itself spawned the Firemint company. "It's always been in the back of our minds, sometimes we've talked about it. It's only now that we've been able to make it possible."

Es handelt sich dabei genauer um den Metallrahmen, der das iPhone 4 umgibt und dessen Probleme unter dem Titel “Antennagate” (eine Anspielung an das politische Skandal um den ehemaligen US-Präsidenten Nixon

BlackBerry PlayBook preview
We just played with a wonderful tablet, and it wasn't running Android, webOS, iOS, or even Windows. It was running a funky realtime operating system called QNX that RIM bought in April, combined with WebKit and a heaping helping of Flash, and plans on releasing to the world in Q1 of this year. The BlackBerry PlayBook is surprisingly polished and responsive at this stage, even though RIM says it has a lot of work to still left to do. In fact, the only thing frustrating about our roughly 30 minutes with the tablet (under the caring gaze of Mike Lazaridis) was the fact that you can't buy an actual BlackBerry phone right now that's anywhere near this enjoyable to use.

Acer Iconia Tab A500 first hands-on!
Acer's ten-inch Tegra 2 tablet with Verizon LTE? You're looking at it right now, courtesy of the NVIDIA booth at CES 2011's Digital Experience show. It's just an engineering prototype with an early build of Android 2.2 -- it'll run Honeycomb at launch -- but the hardware seriously feels final, with a solid metal case and a supremely responsive touchscreen that tracks a full ten points of contact. There's an interesting array of ports, too, with a full-sized USB port (as well as micro-USB) on one side and a dedicated charging socket too, as well as a dock connector on the bottom.

Sony's 3D head-mounted display prototype face-on
Sony went seriously 3D-crazy at CES this year, and in addition to the slew of shipping 3D products, the company is showing off some futuristic prototypes -- including this 3D head-mounted display that features a 720p OLED display for each eye, simulated 5.1 surround audio, and super-slick blue LED piping. No price, no availability, and no practical functionality since there's no way to keep the thing on your face without your hands, but c'mon -- you know you want one. Video after the break.

Samsung Galaxy Player hands-on
Hello there, Galaxy S without a SIM card slot, how are you today? Samsung's showing off its Korea-bound Galaxy Player at CES today and we've got to say, it's almost indistinguishable from the European Galaxy S handset. The small differences include the addition of a second speaker on the back of this device, offering a stereo sound experience when you're away from your headphones and, of course, a retractable TV antenna (it's for the Korean market, after all). Availability is set for this month in Samsung's home nation, but our queries about US plans were unfortunately met with uncertainty.

The device was looping demo videos of the Honeycomb UI, but a little investigation on our part revealed a bare bones homescreen.

Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc Reality Display vs. Retina Display... fight!
Sony Ericsson isn't being shy about hyping the Xperia Arc's new Reality Display, so we naturally had to take a head-to-head shot with the iPhone 4's Retina Display. They actually compare quite well in person, even though the Arc actually has the same 854 x 480 resolution as the Droid X -- you can definitely see some pixels up close, but since the panel is a hair smaller than the X at 4.2 inches, the pixel density is a little tighter. The real noise behind the Reality Display is Arc's Bravia Engine, which Sony claims will enhance colors and detail just like on Bravia TVs, but we didn't get to play with it too much beyond finding the option i

Hands-on with Motorola's Xoom tablet, Atrix 4G smartphone
After Motorola's keynote, we had the rare opportunity to see and (in one case) test two of the brand new devices, the Xoom tablet and the Atrix 4G. Although it wasn't considered ready for hands-on time, the Xoom was clearly in working order and had Android 3.0 in full swing. What we got to see suggested that Google has made much better use of a large screen than on the Galaxy Tab; the home screen used a mix of apps and widgets well, and the e-book, media and YouTube apps all took good use of the space, even if they were sometimes overly fla

Driving around with the Garmin StreetPilot iPhone app
It was only a matter of time before Garmin had to get on the iPhone navigation bandwagon, and now it has finally happened. Garmin StreetPilot joins a crowded field of nav apps wanting some space on your iDevice. StreetPilot is US-only and sells for $39.99.
I spent 2 days driving with the Garmin app, and in general it was a good experience, but I have some serious reservations. Feature-wise, it competes well with the big boys like Navigon, TomTom and Magellan. It has turn by turn directions with text to speech for street names, real time traffic (no subscription required), built-in local search, address book integration, iPod music controls, multi-tasking and weather.

Hello, speedsters! OCZ Technology has just busted out a new trio of solid state solutions here at CES, so we won't waste any time getting down to business. Up first is the performance-oriented, MLC-based Vertex 3 Pro, which runs along quite hastily on the SATA 6Gbps interface. We're told that it's built with a next-generation SandForce controller, enabling it to approach 80,000 IOPS and demonstrate 550MB/sec transfer rates. Up next is the Vertex 3 EX, which also utilizes a SATA 6Gbps interface but relies on SLC Flash memory. It's also capable of pushing a similar read rate

Samsung Infuse 4G for AT&T: hands on, screen off
The Motorola Infuse 4G is all kinds of lovely to hold and sits happily in the palm, despite its 4.5-inch display and thanks to the slightly textured back. Did we mention it's thin? When it launches on AT&T it'll be the thinnest smartphone in the inventory. Heck, it's profile makes our iPhone look downright husky -- of course, with that size, the trade-off we'll be interested to see is how the battery performs. Unfortunately, Samsung wouldn't let us fire it up for a look under the hood but with CES just barely started, we've plenty of time to work ou

Sony announces bevy of camcorders, some 3D, others with built-in projectors
Sony has revealed a slew of new camcorders touting cutting-edge specs. While three 3D camcorders were announced, the HDR-TD10 is the flagship model and is touted by Sony as the world's first "Double Full HD" 3D consumer camcorder thanks to its double Sony G lenses, double "Exmor R" CMOS image sensors, and double BIONZ image processors. The camera also sports 3.5-inch Xtra Fine LCD 3D touch screen that enables users to view 3D footage sans glasses. Storage-wise, the unit will ship with 64GB of flash memory and hit shelves this April for around $1,500.

Android text messaging bugs acknowledged, fixes detailed
Hear that thunderous roar off in the distance, growing louder (and more frightening) as it persists? That is the sound of excited Android users emailing us to inform their fave gadget site that Google has just sent users an update to that little embarrassing SMS bug that we reported a while back. There seem to be two distinct issues: users have reported both opening one message to have a completely different message appear, and / or sending an text message to one contact yet having it delivered to another contact entirely.

Avatar Kinect is official, smile like you mean it
Turns out the rumor was true, Avatar Kinect is coming to the Xbox 360 this spring (for Xbox Live Gold members, at least). Details are sparse -- a place where you can virtually hang out with your "friends" -- but Kinect is shown to now be able to detect facial gestures like eyebrows, smiles, and laughs. Impressive, but after all we've seen with the Kinect hacks, can't say we're too surprised the camera's capable of such detection.

Mophie Pulse adds stereo speakers, extra vibration to iPod touch
Gamers who enjoy playing on the iPod touch can look forward to getting their world rocked by the Mophie Pulse, a sort of 'rumble pack' case that Mophie is showing off at CES 2011. The pulse will feature front-facing speakers as well for stereo sound while you play games.
If you're worried that sudden vibrations might cause you to accidentally drop your iPod, Mophie has added a rubberized grip to help ensure that your game doesn't get away from you.
While there's no word on a release date or pricing just yet, this certainly looks like a fun addition for anyone who likes gaming on the go.

Time Warner Cable VOD coming to Sony Bravia HDTVs, sans the cable box
In a revelation that still has us in shock, Sony announced at CES tonight that its new Bravia HDTVs would give consumers direct access to Time Warner Cable video-on-demand. The details are very lacking at the moment but we can't think of another example of when a cable company has allowed its on demand content to be delivered on a 3rd party device. Of course this doesn't solve all our problems as the TVs don't have built in DVRs so that wonderful Time Warner set-top-box will still be tethered to your stunning HDTV, but it is a step in the right direction. Now we just wait to see how well it actually works when it finally actually gets rolled out.

Motorola Droid Bionic hands-on
If this is the direction high-power smartphones are going, we like what we're seeing. Though the software's still a bit raw (there's no Android Market, for example), the Droid Bionics on display here at Motorola's CES event this evening look and feel pretty blazingly fast. A spokesman we chatted with said that Motorola is actually doing some manner of software optimization (and yes, it'll launch with 2.2) to take advantage of the two cores out of the box, so it's a promising start -- as Jha says, it's "2GHz of processing power." We hope that's true in practice!

DocScanner successfully trasitions from iOS to Mac app
Today I spent a half hour playing around with the first iOS app to Mac OS X app port I've gotten my hands on, and if DocScanner is any indication of the quality and usability of other iOS apps transitioning to the Mac, the Mac App Store is gonna rock indeed.
DocScanner iPhone is an existing app that turns your iPhone into an OCR scanner. You simply snap a photograph of a document and the app uses built-in OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to extract the text from the document. The app then lets you save the text as a PDF for emailing or sharing with Evernote.

As expected, Cisco held a quick CES presser today to launch its connected TV initiative, which it's calling Videoscape. It's pretty ambitious stuff -- Cisco's goal isn't to kick out a single consumer-focused set-top box, but rather to build out an entire video network architecture in conjunction with service providers that allows customers to view any authorized content on any device on any network. That means that in addition to the actual Videoscape set-top box for your TV, there will also be apps for everything from Android and iOS to game consoles and Macs and PCs -- in the end, Cisco thinks your standard premium cable sub

Microsoft shows off next generation of Surface, has per-pixel touch detection
Microsoft's Surface still isn't for consumers, but it's getting a whole lot wilder. We just saw the next generation of Surface, which has infrared "pixel sense" detection in each pixel, meaning instead of multiple single points of touch, the screen can image your entire hand in all its detail. This should allow for some pretty wild UI improvements, but Microsoft's primary demo was the tried-and-true rippling water effect. The technology was developed in conjunction with Samsung, and measures four inches thick -- it's obviously not going into your next tablet. Under the hood is an AMD CPU / GPU combo. The wildest part, however, is pictured above: placing a piece of paper with
