| Samsung Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Tab 2 Press Info Leaked Early. Posted: 12 Feb 2011 06:16 PM PST  Based on the press release photo and specs, it appears as though Samsung has plans to bring the thunder with their upcoming smartphone and tablet release. The Samsung Galaxy S2 should be making its appearance at MWC on the 14th, but we’ve managed to search the depths of the Internet and scrape up some pre-released info on the device for you. The specs and photo were leaked from a Korean blog called Paran, which revealed some pretty hefty particulars. The Galaxy S2 will sport a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus multi-touch screen, a 1 GHz dual-core processor (Exynos?) and Bluetooth 3.0. The device will also support WiFi 802.11 a/b/g/n and come packed with HSPA+ compatibility. Sounds like a powerhouse of a device to me. Here’s to hoping Samsung stays on the ball and the device sees some “timely” updates. Why are you laughing? Although, it shouldn’t be that much of a deal breaker for you since the device will be released with Gingerbread (2.3). Read More…

| Australian version of Nexus S will not have Super AMOLED display Posted: 12 Feb 2011 03:29 PM PST  For those of you in Australia looking to pick up a Google Nexus S when it becomes available on Vodafone, there’s some bad news. The Nexus S to be distributed in Australia will not have a Super AMOLED display, instead sporting a Super LCD display. Vodafone announced earlier this week that it’d be carrying the Nexus S in 24 countries, though it hasn’t been determined whether other countries will have to settle for the downgraded Nexus S screen. However, the Super AMOLED version of the phone appeared on a Vodafone Germany preview site. Perhaps the situation will vary from country to country. Despite the screen issue, Australian users will still enjoy the following features of the Google Nexus S:

| YourVersion brings news app optimized for Android Tablets Posted: 12 Feb 2011 10:45 AM PST  YourVersion app users on Android smartphones can now have the same functionailty on your Android tablet devices as well, now that YourVersion has optimized their news reader app for tablet size screen resolution. YourVersion is totally free and brings breaking news, blogs and tweets right to your tablet or smartphone in a slick, easy to navigate interface. The app makes it easy for you to integrate your social networking sites such as Twitter and facebook, while allowing you to easily share or blog interesting news articles to others. It can be seen as just another news reader, but they’ve paid specific attention to how the app displays on larger screens, making this a better user experience overall, rather than a regular reader app originally made for smaller screens, and stretched to fit a tablet size screen. The app has a minimum resolution requirement of 1024×600 (same as Samsung Galaxy Tab). For tablet devices with smaller resolutions however, users are encouraged to still use the smartphone version of the app, which you can find here. Requires Android 2.1 and up. Give it a try!
