Good news, people – Tango is about to get Windows Phone. Not the Tango . We refer to the video calling service which is already very popular on IOS and Android, but there was absolutely no presence on the Microsoft platform at all. Of course, there is a reason quite obvious why: the OS does not support cameras face until the mango has come. The unveiling this week of the first HTC devices WP7.5 , someone browsing software for radar happened through an application of Tango in the Start menu, showing users will have more video chat options to choose from than just Skype. Better yet, it seems to offer cross-platform compatibility so you can see your Android-toting friends and your iPhone with the regulations up close and personal. We are delighted to see the function finally ready to go with the beginnings of Mango, but unfortunately this is a matter of time before the name confusion sets in.

Instead of perching precariously on your digital SLR a skateboard in the name of the movie, it might be time to invest in something a bit more stable – like Dolly Pico extremely affordable. Machined aluminum, 3.5-inch, pound three-wheel Dolly similar to those found on roller blades , plus up to three screws to attach the friction arm 11-inch option. The machine can slide straight or in circles while taking up minimal space – which videographers using cameras like the A77 and the E-P3 (or even the iPhone) can surely appreciate. Unlike its conceptual twin , which now costs $ 150 and is not expected to ship until October, Dolly Pico can be had for $ 65 (or $ 90 if you want the arm of friction included) and is expected to ship by September 12.

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.

Let us set the scene: It’s late Friday night. You just finished working and decide to hit the local 7-Eleven on your way to a Slim Jim Brew, mountain and … your Amazon package? Why, yes, seems as absurd as it may well be a PO Box as-locker in the future of your loved Kwik-E Mart. 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.

astroengine wrote It is an event that every professional astronomer considers to be a once in a lifetime of discovery. But for a 18-year-old British student, attended the fragmentation of a comet, she studied became the culmination of a summer program of work experience using the Faulkes Telescope Project, however, it was only the icing on the cake;. Hannah Blyth St. Johns College, Cardiff, has also contributed to the discovery of more than 20 previously unknown asteroids, two of which she discovered it. is extremely rare to detect a comet fragment, but for an amateur (and even less a 18 year old student on work experience) is an incredible achievement.

Bob Schneevis over again. The man who was George W. Bush in a Roman warrior robot has now developed what he called the Solar Electric Robot Char. Presented at the fair this year Bay Area Maker, Schneevis a single engine, bot-drawn carriage has a set of battery juice solar panels and an array of cameras that control movement mechanized his driver. The club, meanwhile, slipped around a pair of skates and is designed to move his legs in the same way humans do – with the only difference being that humans do not rollerblade more. Skating past the break to see the coast of tanks around a parking Mitchell Goosen-like grace.

Apple continues patent battle with Samsung has taken yet another turn, now that Cupertino has won an injunction blocking sales in Germany recently unveiled Galaxy 7.7 tab . According to the Free Software patents, Samsung has withdrawn its new Android tablet of both the IFA show floor and its German site on Saturday, according to a ruling Friday by the same court in Düsseldorf Regional Court which prohibits the sale Galaxy tab of 10.1 last month . The 7.7-inch slate had been previously exposed with a sticker that said Not for sale in Germany, but, as we noted yesterday , all the demonstration models, posters and other promotional materials were removed from . Samsung spokesman James Chung told Bloomberg that the new order severely limits consumer choice in Germany, but confirmed that the Korean manufacturer respects the court’s decision and vowed to do all that ‘she could to defend its intellectual property. Details of the decision remain unclear, and Apple has yet to comment, but we’ll let you know as soon as we hear more.
