One of the fun things about attending a show that is open to the public as the IFA is that you tend to the same level of companies and people walking on the street. And the pitch with the latest Philips GoGear is quite simple: from the business to the iPod touch . We swung by the Philips booth to give the thing another turn . The 3.2-inch portable media player has a touch screen and runs on Android 2.3 – really, it has most of the basic functionality of a handset, except to call people together.

The construction of the device is a bit plasticy and certainly can not compare with the key on that front, but it is light enough and should easily fit in your pocket for a trip to the gym, if you’re so inclined. The player did not make the most of the estate of the screen real potential, due to three large buttons and the Philips logo taking about a quarter of its surface – a strange choice, given the touch screen GoGear. The PMP also has three large brass buttons in his side.

The GoGear three runs Android applications with ease, flipping through the selection of programs Google with no problems. He also has the built-in Android Market, accessible through its built-in WiFi. This feature is also handy with software SimplyShare of the company, which allows you to stream music and video content to other devices.

No word yet on the final price or availability, although the representative of Philips, we spoke with said it will probably run around € 150 for the 8GB version and € 180 for the 16GB.

Whispering Winds hearsay, stolen by the ears over and delivered to The Daily that little nugget of opportunity Bezos supported. The source, a chain of Seattle has one of the prototypes in his possession, with a potentially headed for national rollout next summer. So how does it work? Apparently, you will be offered a choice of 7-Eleven delivery points during the online payment process, after which a bar code can be sent by the digitized record to reveal a pin that gives you access to your Amazon secret. Well, it’s probably an easier idea, but how about throwing them also in some of these tablets based on Android ? Now that the point of sale.
