Clove UK will Stock the Official 3-Pin GSM Galaxy Nexus Vehicle Dock Tuesday, May 22

May 18th, 2012 by admin No comments »

If you are a Galaxy Nexus owner chances are you have been wondering where in the H-E-double-hockey-sticks the 3-pin navigation mount is. It was only recently that the GSM version of the device received access to the other 3-pin accessories and until now the nav mount was nowhere to be seen.  UK online retailer Clove UK has finally gotten word that the official 3-pin mount will be in stock next Tuesday, May 22nd and will retail for £49.99 ($79). You can place your order now and they will ship out the mount first thing on Tuesday. Hit up the source link to place your order.

We still haven’t heard a peep about when, or if the accessory will be available here in the states but you can bet your bottom dollar that we will let you know if it does ever become available. The navigation mount is one of the main features that I was looking forward to when purchasing the Galaxy Nexus and I am still a bit bitter that Verizon hasn’t approved the official navigation mount. Way to go Big Red. Hopefully you Sprint customers have better luck.

[Deal] Get the Logitech Revue from Newegg for $73.99

May 18th, 2012 by admin No comments »

With Google continuing its push into the TV market and not letting Google TV die it’s hard being an early adopter of new technology. The Logitech Revue is a prime example of an early adoption device that didn’t receive much fanfare. The once $299 device dropped to just $99 in hopes that the product would move. Well if you’re hesitant about Google TV and are not wanting to drop a serious chunk of change on a device then this deal might be for you. Newegg is selling a refurbished model of the Revue for just $73.99.

This box goes beyond Apple TV and the Roku media streaming option by packing in the ability to download apps, having a web browser and coming with a keyboard. It was knocked, however, for lacking support for Hulu and having a lack of app selection options. Netflix and Pandora seem to be the only highlight in regards to media sources.

The device was updated to Google TV 2.0 in hopes to remedy the fully admitted flop the device was. However even though it was reported that the device was sold out it’s still safe to say the device did not fair well. So why would you want one you ask? Well because it’s yet another Android device that can be tinkered with. I know that appeals to some Android fanatics out there. While I am waiting on the next batch of Google TV devices to arrive, it’s hard not to jump on this deal.

 

Speaking of deals, while you’re at it you can check out Daily Steals as they are selling a refurbished Motorola Xoom 10.1 WiFi/3G tablet for $269.99. The kicker, it’s unlocked too. It comes with support for any GSM network, Android 3.0 (upgradable to Ice Cream Sandwich) and 32GB of storage.

Hit the links below to snag your Android deals. What about you guys out there? Have you had any luck with your Logitech Revue or is this a good enough deal to consider one? Let us know either in the comment section below or over in the forums.

More LG Optimus LTE II Specs Revealed, Possible Summer Release for the U.S.

May 18th, 2012 by admin No comments »

Earlier this month we saw the announcement of the LG Optimus LTE II. While details on specs were fuzzy we did know that it would come with a whopping 2GB of RAM and a TRUE HD IPS Display. Other than that mum was the word in regards to the other specs. However that’s all changed as it appears that more details have surfaced and it appears that it’s going to be a powerhouse of a phone.  Besides the 2GB of RAM and True HD IPS display here is what it’ll have under the hood:

  • 1.5GHz Dual-Core Processor
  • 4.7-inch 1280×720 display
  • 1.3 MP front Camera with 8 MP rear camera
  • NFC
  • 16GB of storage
  • a Micro SD slot
  • 2150mAh battery.
  • Android 4.0 with LG’s new Optimus UI 3.0

This device is looking to be released in South Korea this week and will be seen in the U.S. and Canada, among others, later in the summer. However as per the usual, there isn’t an exact launch date or information on which carriers will sport the device. Given that AT&T (Nitro HD) and Verizon (Spectrum) have their own versions of the original Optimus LTE. But it looks as if we will only have to wait a few short months to get this sequel device. Does that excite you folks out there?

Chameleon is Now a Kickstarter Project Looking to Make the Tablet UI Sexy Again

May 18th, 2012 by admin No comments »

 

The great thing about Android is the fact that if you don’t like the way it looks, you can use a slew of various launcher applications  to change it to work for you. NOVA Launcher and Go Launcher are just a few of the launcher options you have. However the one thing I find with every launcher I’ve used is that even though I set it to work great for me, it still feels not as efficient as it should be. Mind you I am talking about my tablet UI. Ice Cream Sandwich on the Nexus works perfectly in my opinion. Enter Chameleon. The launcher we told you about back in March looks to make inefficiency a thing of the past. While this UI is nothing short of revolutionary it didn’t hit the target market the company intended it for. Intended for OEMs the company behind the UI couldn’t find a buyer.

Rather than give up they’re taking to the UI to Kickstarter. Their goal is $50,000. Now I know what you’re thinking. Why the heck would we pay for a UI that’s only in the prototype stage let alone at all? Well the company has more than just a Photoshop rendering of the the UI as you will see from the videos below the UI looks amazing. And if you’re still skeptical the company behind Chameleon, Teknision, is listed as one of the designers behind the BlackBerry PlayBook‘s UI.

So if you feel like supporting what should be a very well done UI that’s already in the works, hit the source link below. Here’s hoping they meet their mark because this is going to be a great GUI. Again, you can check out the videos of this UI in motion after the break. Enjoy!
