LG’s Optimus 3D officially launched..

The long wait is finally over! Joining the likes of HTC EVO 3D and Sharp SH-12C is LG’s very own Optimus 3D aka Thrill 4G for AT&T, which we first got our hands on back in February and again in March. The specs for this Android 2.2 device (yeah, we know) have remained untouched since we last checked: here we have a 4.3-inch glasses-less 3D LCD with 800 x 480 resolution, a 1GHz dual core TI OMAP4430 processor, 512MB of speedy dual channel RAM, a 1.3 megapixel front-facing camera, and a couple of 5 megapixel cameras on the back that can capture 3D 1080p video at 24fps, or 3D 720p at 30fps. Other tidbits include 14.4Mbps HSPA+ connection, an HDMI-out port, and a removable 1500mAh battery, all inside a 5.93 ounce package. Alas, no date’s been mentioned for the phone’s US launch, but the lucky Europeans will get to pick up this phone first, followed by the rest of the world “over the next several weeks..

Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo to hit the shops in the next few weeks..

Sitting in the middle of Sony Ericsson’s Xperia range, and offering a slightly smaller screen than the range-topping models, the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo has a lot to offer. It has loads of decent features, and is set to hit the shops in the next couple of weeks.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo has been somewhat overshadowed of late, with its siblings – the Xperia Play and the Xperia Arc – taking the limelight.

Despite the relative lack of publicity, we particularly like the look of the Xperia Neo’s screen, which measures in at 3.7 inches and offers a pin sharp 854×480 pixels. As such, it should be able to match the iPhone 4 when it comes to showing off your photos or checking out the web.

Performance should be impressive, with a 1GHz processor powering the Xperia Neo’s Gingerbread operating system. The 8-megapixel camera puts the Neo on par with rivals, and there’s also an LED flash for night time shots.

We were initially expecting the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo to go on sale during April, but production delays mean that the smartphone has slipped off the radar. It’s now expected to ship during the first week of July, so you can expect it to hit the shops soon.

Ten Highlights of Mac OS X Lion for Apple Macbook..

As we all know, Apple has developed iOS for the iPhone. Based on the system of Mac OS X, and now it brings the best to the iPad to your Mac with Mac OS X Lion, available in summer 2011.

Highlight 1: Newly Multi Touch Gestures
Multi-Touch gestures make everything you do on iPad easy and intuitive. The latest Mac OS X Lion brings more handy ways to interact with your Mac. Enjoy more fluid and realistic gesture responses, including rubber-band scrolling, page and image zoom, and full-screen swiping. In Mac OS X Lion, every swipe, pinch, and scroll looks and feels more responsive and lifelike.

Highlight 2: Launchpad — A Home for Your Apps
Launchpad gives users instant access to your apps in iPad style. Just click the Launchpad icon in your Dock and then get a full-screen view of all your apps in Launchpad. It takes just a swipe to see multiple pages of apps, and you can arrange them any way you like by dragging icons to different locations or by grouping apps in folders. In fact, it’s just about as fast as keeping an Application folder in your dock, and easier to glance at too. The Launchpad can also be enhanced by adding directories so you can find anything you need in just a few clicks. And when you download an app from the Mac App Store, it automatically appears in Launchpad.

Highlight 3: Full-screen Apps
Another wonderful feature for users is the full-screen app views for Mac OS X Lion. It’s an idea that fits some apps much better than others — iPhoto. In iPhoto, users can see all Events at one time in full-screen view. One click for an app in full screen, tree fingers swipe to switch to another. Again, just like you view your Apps on the iPad or iPhone, Full Screen view of an App really makes it stand out more for great functionality.

Highlight 4: Mission Control
Mission Control is actually a new Expose, integrating the Dock, Dashboard and views from all open apps, both windowed and full screen. With a simple swipe, your desktop zooms out to Mission Control, and you can get to anything you see in Mission Control with just one click.

Highlight 5: Versions
Simply put, this is Time Machine for files. Versions records the evolution of a document as you create it. Mac OS X Lion automatically creates a version of the document each time you open it and every hour while you’re working on it. This way, when you realize you’ve made a mistake along the way, you can most easily slide through the different versions of your work and revert anything you want by copying and pasting it in place.

Highlight 6: Resume
Nothing fancy, but very useful. Whenever you quit and relaunch an app, Resume opens it precisely the way you left it. Everything is persistent — your files, folders and applications are preserved exactly as you left them. So you never have to start from scratch again.

Highlight 7: Mail 5
Just like Mail on iPad, Mail 5 in Mac OS X Lion features a new layout that takes advantage of the widescreen display on your Mac. You’ve got a left column with all your messages and a preview pane on the right — threaded messages are numbered in the new conversation view, which is a dead-simple idea that works really well. Search has also been dramatically improved with easy query-stacking options, and folders can be added to a new bookmark bar-style Mailbox Bar at the top of the screen.

Highlight 8: Mac App Store
Just like shopping the App Store on iPad, the Mac App Store offers endless possibilities for browsing and purchasing apps. Newly purchased apps install in one step and appear right in the new Launchpad. It is the easiest way to install and keep applications up to date.

Highlight 9: Lion Server
Instead of having to buy it separately, Lion Server is now part of Mac OS X Lion, making it more mainstream and available for the masses. Manage users and groups easily. Even monitor performance with graphs.

Highlight 10: AirDrop
One of Lion’s niftiest new features is AirDrop, which allows quick and easy file transfers between WiFi-equipped Macs. Just click the AirDrop icon in the Finder sidebar, and your Mac automatically discovers other people nearby who are using AirDrop. Swapping files is as simple as dragging and confirming. Also, AirDrop doesn’t require setup or special settings.

T-Mobile New Electronics

4G LG G2x is powered by Nvidia’s Tegra 2 processor with a 1Ghz dual-core CPU running on Android 2.2. The phone boasts a front-facing 1.3 MP camera and 8 MP front and rear facing cameras respectively, with HD 1080p video capture. The G2x could definitely end up being one of our favorite T-Mobile smartphones of the first half of 2011.

Sidekick 4G is an Android 2.2 running smartphone with slide-out QWERTY keyboard and HSPA+ connectivity. It has 3.5″ TFT display, 3MP camera, 5-row QWERTY keyboard, 1GHz processor, front-facing VGA camera and GPS.

Sprint New Electronics

Many excellent tech gadgets on CTIA 2011 were showcased, including whole new HTC EVO 3D and Google Nexus S 4G.

HTC EVO 3D is the first G phone with a QHD 4.3-inch 3D display. It is powered by a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, Android 2.3 under the hood and 5MP dual-lens camera for 3D photo and video capture. It also will come with a 4G hotpsot and you can connect up to 5 Wi-Fi-enabled devices to it.

Google Nexus S 4G is the second smartphone that introduced to the Nexus series. It runs Google’s new version of Android OS Gingerbread, and is powered by 1GHz processor. It is not a great leap forward in the same way that the original Nexus was but rather is more like a refreshed version of the Samsung Galaxy S. But the Nexus S 4G takes advantage of Sprint’s high-speed WiMAX 4G data network. Very nice!

All in all, the Sprint’s new electronics are either support 3D technology or carry 4G network. It will be a big hit on CTIA.
