1 April is widely known as April Fool day. But any how, HBO Go is coming from the very first day of this April. I hope there is no cache. HBO co-President Eric Kessler mentioned, due to huge demand of HBO Go, the service will be online from April 1 onwards. Just need to wait slightly one month to see the response. Either people are gonna be mumbling or they are gonna be screaming in joy.
While the chief buzz of MWC 2012 is the awesome gadgets and technologies that are being unveiled by the leading companies of the tech world, many organizations have also taken the opportunity to announce winners of different contests. La Fiesta Hackathon is an international competition where mobile developers present their apps for iOS, Windows Phone, Android and Blaast platforms. Now, during the event at Barcelona, the winners of the contest have been announced.
It would seem that Mobile World Congress 2012 was not only an event to reveal some of the most awe-inspiring gadgets, devices and technologies; it was also an event to socialize. Or that’s what the largest social network did. Facebook is said to have become ‘best friends’ during the Barcelona event and planned a new, better future for the mobile industry. The ‘partnership’, if that’s the right word to term it, would result in more monetise-able models for mobile operators, Facebook promised.
A very striking feature of MWC 2012 this year is that it features a number of hybrid-like devices. And that indicates that the distinguishing line is fast blurring between tablets and smartphone devices, not to mention that notebooks stay quite close too. Asus has been leading the charge with it’s ‘transformer’ philosophy. And now Asus has unveiled Padfone, a phone which can effectively be turned into a 10-inch tablet with the help of accompanying accessories.
Wireless charging has been around for quite some time. But one of the reasons why it didn’t gather traction was that it was expensive; and also that there weren’t any very workable solutions. Now Powermat, who has been producing wireless charging devices, has taken a step which may significantly move wireless charging into mainstream smartphone world. At MWC 2012, Powermat unveiled a Wireless Charging Card (WiCC) which can make it all happen.
![Huawei Reveals MediaPad 10FHD – 8.8mm, 8MP Tablet With HD 1080p Output [Hands-On Pictures]](https://thetechjournal.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/DSC04325.webp)
Huawei just revealed some high-end, smart & attactive gadgets in the MWC press conference few minutes ago. They entered in the tablet market with full HD output, branded name “MediaPad 10FHD”. It is one of the most powerful tablet now in the market. I am sure you will wanna have one piece after watching the pics & specifications. Huawei incorporated K3 Quad-Core Processor in this tablet.
When it comes to low-cost tablets, Amazon’s Kindle Fire has been on a fair lead. It costs a mere $199, comes with the extensive Amazon ecosystem experience and is fairly good in specs as well as the overall user experience on it. But, what if another tablet, with better specs and OS and many superior features became available in the same price? This is what has just happened as the BlackBerry PlayBook gets an update and becomes awesome!
As the Mobile World Congress, which is scheduled for the next week, draws closer, a number of rumors as well as leaks are happening. Most of these leaks are in anticipation of the expected devices that will be unveiled during the MWC 2012. The latest of these leaks are about Sony Xperia U, somewhat of a big brother to the previous Sony device, Sony Xperia S. More than a dozen leaked images of the device show that it is larger in size than Xperia S.
