Well I know I was disappointed when the first Picasa application came out since it was just a homescreen link to the Picasa login page. While I was at the RIM booth one of the reps kindly showed me a demo of the new Picasa application for BlackBerry that will be released soon (couldn’t nail [...]

I take back what I said yesterday. RIM’s booth at CES is actually very slick. They have some cool tech on display there with most of the news being in the applications field. Check out the pics of the booth below:

I know, we are late on this one. (But the boss is at the CES and as they say, “whilst the cat is away, the mice will play”.)
About a week back, BGR released pictures of the upcoming BlackBerry ????. At that stage, everything was just rumor and speculation. (I even contacted RIM to see whether [...]

Sunday is what they call press day which is mostly the larger companies announcing one product and fluffing up their figures of how they are slowly taking over the consumer electronics world. The big focus is on Flat Panel [...]

I will be attending CES 2008 (Consumer Electronics Show) next week and covering all of the latest announcements LIVE during the show. I will be at the show this Sunday Jan 6th until Wednesday Jan 9th. We will be covering the BlackBerry angle but expect to also see other products and announcements that I think [...]
