sony s1 and s2 dual screen tablets
Sony has just announced a pair of Honeycomb tablets in a press event in Tokyo, called the S1 and the S2, both of which are still codenames according to Sony. It has made its 9.4-inch Sony S1 and 5.5-inch dual-screened S2 Honeycomb tablets official with a press event in Tokyo recently. We’ve been hearing about these since mid-February, and recently the Japanese paper Nikkei has said Sony has plans to enter the U.S. market before the end of Summer 2011.
The S1 is a 9.4-inch tablet with an off-center of gravity design that supposedly makes it easier to grip and more comfortable to hold. Kunimasa Suzuki, Deputy President of Sony’s consumer products and services group likens it to holding a magazine. The S2 is a 5.5-inch dual-screened tablet that has the ability to use the screens as one large canvas, or feature specially coded applications running in each independently.
Both the S1 and S2 house Nvidia Tegra 2 processors, and the ability to integrate with other Sony products. And they both sport the Playstation Suite, like the new Xperia Play smartphone. An example was given where the S1 can act as a remote for Bravia marked equipment. Both the S1 and S2 will be available globally this fall.

Apple’s white iPhone 4 to be seen at the end of APRIL, FINALLY…
Apr 15th
white iphone-4
Apple repeatedly delayed the product in 2010, citing manufacturing issues. Last October, the company announced that the white iPhone 4 would not arrive until spring 2011.
The extended delay of the white iPhone 4 has prompted speculation that Apple will hold off on releasing a redesigned iPhone this summer. Numerous rumors have now suggested that Apple will instead release the so called iPhone 5 this fall, with one report suggesting that Apple would not release a next-generation iPhone until after Apple’s fiscal 2012 begins in late September.
A new report claims that Apple will finally begin selling the white iPhone 4 by the end of April after having resolved manufacturing challenges that resulted in a 10-month delay.
white iphone-4
Citing people familiar with Apple’s plans, Bloomberg reported Wednesday that the white iPhone is almost ready for launch on both AT&T and Verizon, corroborating an earlier report from AppleInsider that the device would launch in April.
The white model may help spur demand as Apple works on the next generation of its top- elling product. Apple, the world’s largest technology company by market value, isn’t planning to announce a new iPhone at its June developers’ conference, breaking with its practice in past years, two people familiar with the matter said. It may instead introduce the next iPhone in September, according to Mike Abramsky, an analyst at RBC Capital Markets in Toronto.
The white iPhone 4 was originally supposed to come out shortly after the black iPhone 4 debuted in June of last year, but it has been repeatedly delayed due to issues with light leaking through the glass plate and onto the camera sensor. Since the introduction of the first iPod media player in 2001, white has been a popular colour for Apple’s gadgets. The earlier iPhone 3GS model was available in white, as is the iPad 2, which went on sale last month.

HTC Sensation 4G
Tapping into HTC’s trademark design language, the HTC Sensation’s premium look and feel is enhanced by its rounded edges, aluminum unibody construction and the touch screen surface is protected by a contoured screen that feels more natural as a finger is glided across it. The 4.3″ qHD (960 x 540) display delivers high-resolution widescreen viewing and gives the HTC Sensation slender proportions that feel natural in a person’s hand. At the heart of the HTC Sensation beats a powerful, 1.2 gigahertz dual core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, which enables gorgeous graphics and all-around fast performance.
A higher resolution 8-megapixel rear facing autofocus camera that can shoot 1080p video at 30fps. Captured video can also be trimmed on the phone itself before uploading.

HTC Sensation 4G
The Sensation comes with 768 MB of RAM and 1GB of internal memory, but HTC has thrown in an 8GB microSD card to help with all that video your service provider hopes you’ll be downloading on the device. The phone weighs 148 g (5.2 oz.) and at 11.3 mm (0.44 inches) thick, comes in slightly thicker than the iPhone 4. However, the Sensation’s 4.3-inch widescreen display is almost an inch bigger than the 3.5-inch display of Apple‘s device.
Features include a customizable active lock screen that constantly updates social media, photos, weather or stock updates, which can then be viewed by waking the display. The lock screen also serves as the launchpad for jumping to the phone’s most-used features.
