Samsung Galaxy One Concept Design
Like UnlikeFiled in: TabletsSamsung
Many manufacturers have already looked into integrating projectors into cell phone. But not a lot have talked about integrating one into a tablet. Today, Samsung unveiled their concept for the Galaxy One. This tablet runs Windows 8 and uses a variable-angle projector that can be used with the tablet being held in different positions. The tablet will include two mini stands that will tilt the tablet to a 10 degree angle. This will allow the user to place the device on a table and have the image be in the right location on the screen. Unfortunately, the concept designer did not release any specs about resolution or brightness, but there are many who would like to see Samsung actually build thi...

Virgin Mobile USA to launch "unlimited" 4G WiMax Hotspot & Dongle May 31
Like UnlikeWe did a double take when we saw this news. Virgin Mobile USA announced it would bring unlimited 4G broadband internet access to its customers for a low $35 per month, with very few strings attached.
Previously, Virgin Mobile had offered the Novatel 2200 personal hotspot with unlimited data for a low monthly fee without contract. The downside was it runs on Sprint's EVDO network, which runs at an average of 800kbps, hardly broadband compared to the competition. Now Virgin is planning to offer the Overdrive Pro 3G\4G hotspot, and the U600 3G\4G USB stick. The two devices will be available on May 31, and will be priced at $149 for the Overdrive Pro hotspot, and $99 for the U600 USB stick.

Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesOperating SystemsLGGoogleSpectrumAndroid 4.0
There are a number of things you gotta love about the LG Spectrum. To start, it comes with a gorgeous HD display measuring 4.5 inches in diagonal, and you also get to enjoy Verizon's speedy 4G LTE network. There is a 1.5GHz dual-core processor inside it and an 8-megapixel camera at its back. Yet in charge of this potent hardware we still see the aging Android 2.3 Gingerbread.

Photos of 3D Maps app in iOS 6 leaks out
Like UnlikeFiled in: Operating SystemsApple
Let it be known that May 29 seems to be the new unofficial date to leak upcoming Apple products. First, alleged images of the next iPhone’s casing hit the web and now BGR claims it has received access to the rumored 3D Maps app in iOS 6.
It’s been all but confirmed by Apple for a while that the company will be ditching Google Maps in the next release of iOS in favor of its own mapping technology built from scratch. It just makes sense considering all the tension between Apple and Google nowadays. The new Maps app developed entirely by Apple would include a flagship mapping feature to view cities and structures in 3D.

We have heard that Facebook has a new impetus to develop a mobile platform of its own. Now Paris-based Paul Amsellem, managing director of Mobile Network Group, a mobile marketing company, suggests the company could get into the game most easily by buying Nokia and releasing a Windows Phone.
"Facebook needs somebody with an understanding of networking, technology, carrier relationships and logistics," he said. "They can acquire one of these two players for not a lot of money."
