HTC One X camera challenge - can you see the difference between a smartphone and a camera?

AppId is over the quota
AppId is over the quota

HTC is pretty confident in the new camera they introduced in the One series. I have to be honest, they have good reason to be. The camera in the One S is downright spectacular, and really can replace a typical point-and-shoot digicam. It's a wonderful mix of hardware, software, and magic that truly delivers. In fact, HTC is pretty sure you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between pictures taken with the One X and those taken with a stand-alone camera. Hit the link below, run through and see what all the fuss is about.

The negative decision of Samsung is the third in a row in Germany, while the decision against Apple is the first of two, the second scheduled for a hearing March 16.

The Court decision comes just a few weeks after a Court in Munich decided that Motorola had indeed infringed on Apple ' patent s slide to unlock, resulting from changes being made to Motorola ' s unlock feature.

Today ' s decision is just a drop in the bucket, as it is of at least 14 disputes between Samsung and Apple pending in Germany, with more to start around the world. Samsung has already promised to call today ' decision, while Apple will probably do the same.

With Apple, Samsung, Motorola and HTC all set to release some heavy devices - hit in the coming months, we ' ll be sure to keep you posted as the ravages of the war on.

Can TiKL Work Between an Android & a BlackBerry Phone?

If your phone does not include push-to-talk functionality as a hardware feature, you can download free apps like TiKL to add this feature if you have a smartphone such as an iPhone or Android. While this service does work over carriers and phone types, it does not work between Android phones and BlackBerry devices because there is no BlackBerry version available.

TiKL is a free app available for smart devices such as Android phones that allows your phone to function like a walkie talkie with push-to-talk technology. The application adds a button to contacts in your phone list or Facebook friends which can initiate one-on-one or group voice sessions. You can also use TiKL for chat or text messaging sessions with your contacts.

While TiKL is compatible with a variety of Android devices and the iPhone, there is no version available for BlackBerry phones, despite the fact that BlackBerry devices are capable of using apps. Therefore, anyone in your network who uses a BlackBerry will be excluded from conversations using TiKL. However, if you're using Android or an iOS device, you can use TiKL across devices and carriers.

While TiKL does not work between Android and BlackBerry devices, you may consider the app Loudtalks. Loudtalks is compatible with the BlackBerry OS as well as Android and PCs with the Windows operating system. As of the time of publication, Loudtalks is the only cross-operating system compatible push-to-talk app. In the future, you may also be able to use the app TalkBox, which is currently only available for Android and iPhone, on your BlackBerry.

Push-to-talk solutions like TiKL that offer texting, voice and other communications that may not require minutes or text messaging units on your plan. However, they do use data, whether that is network data from your cellular provider or data from a local wireless area connection or WLAN. If you do not have unlimited data, you should track your usage with TiKL or other Internet-enabled apps.
