Some colleagues of mine always talk about BlackBerry phones, which got me curious. What’s with this brand of phone that many are hooked with? I browsed and asked until I came across this BlackBerry Tour 9630.

Watching cartoons on screen is just one of the things I love doing, for fun and leisure. It’s also my way of bonding with my little sibling. During my childhood years, wherein I was so focused and addicted to watching cartoons, I have already appreciated the crafty approach of Mickey Mouse’s every move.

Was it animation? I believe so. Today, animation has just got better that it looked more real. This was due to the enhanced, and maybe more advanced 3D technology. And some fellas from the University of British Columbia’s Human Communications Technology Lab have created a concept 3D cube, which they call the pCubee.

It’s a cube that can display images on all six sides of it with perspective-corrected rendering and motion-detection. Each display shows one perspective of an image, which can give you the illusion of looking into a 3-dimensional space. It can make you choose to see the front, side or even overhead view of an object and you can even interact with the images on the displays. PCubee is still a project in progress; that if it will be materialized, more people whose into movies and animation would surely love and support this.

In terms of choosing a digital camera for personal use or for the purpose of giving, it is important to always reflect on its functionality and style. And this is what I saw with Canon’s Ixus 130.

Neofonie sure has no intentions of making a rival over Apple’s iPad as they unleashed their WePad, an Android-powered tablet that has similar functions with iPad only that its main target consumers are the elder readers.

This thing is said to be a little heavier and bigger than iPad but is priced in a low, low amount but functions for easy reading access of newspapers or magazines. Some of its special features include Flash Adobe Air, and access to the WePad AppStore and Google’s own Android Marketplace, to name a few.

WePad is a robust machine that has an 11.6″ display (1366×768), a quick 1.66GHz Intel Atom N450 processor, a webcam (for video chats, we imagine), two USB sockets, a flash card reader, integrated WWAN modem, GMA3150 graphics (far better than on most e-readers) and a battery that is said to last six hours.

In addition, it has a built-in 16GB of NAND Flash (32GB optional), a 1.3MP webcam, and SIM card slot, Bluetooth 2.1 & Wi-Fi connectivity, optional GPS, an ambient light & motion sensor and an internal microfan to keep things cool. Such specifications can make the WePad deliver high class performance above its competitors. I wonder if this product will still standout once the iPad hits the store shelves.

Well, Neofonie has been fair enough and brilliant in putting all together the possible and effective features that a tablet should posses in their WePad so it wouldn’t be any surprise if consumers will go fish for WePad over its rivals.
