drag2share: Verizon-branded LG Spectrum steps out in leaked press shot

LG aren't letting up on the LTE hardware. While we've only just shaken hands with AT&T's Nitro HD, this Verizon-branded 4G handset packs several design cues (and specifications) from its rival network cousin. The LG Spectrum has already appeared -- albeit fleetingly -- in a database listing and is likely to be the successor to Big Red's Revolution. Pocketnow reckons that the phone will rock a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, a high-definition display running at 720p and an eight megapixel shooter, although it's hard to make out much for from these shots -- aside from that protruding camera module. Regardless, life's most certainly looking good for LG fans.

Want to check out the hair at the nape of your neck, see what the back of your throat looks like, or look behind places you can't fit your head? If you have an iPhone 4S and Apple TV you can setup Airplay mirroring so whatever your camera is recording is displayed on your TV in real time.

Mac enthusiast weblog TUAW shares this clever use of the new-to-iOS 5 feature. You can enable Airplay mirroring by double-clicking your iDevice's home button, swiping to the right twice, and selecting your Apple TV as your Airplay destination. Make sure that mirroring is turned on, then click on the home button and load your camera app.

drag2share: SkyDrive and Windows Phone cozy up, apps can now directly integrate with the cloud

Source: http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/12/skydrive-and-windows-phone-cozy-up-apps-can-now-directly-integr/

Microsoft, in an effort to continue integrating SkyDrive into Windows Phone, made a few changes to the cloud service's API this week. The new adjustments now give third-party Windows Phone apps full access to SkyDrive, complete with the ability to upload and share pictures, videos and docs. These changes were apparently the result of a lot of feedback from developers, and HandyScan just became the first company to show interest by incorporating the new API features into its Windows Phone app. The program, which offers the ability to scan a document or object, now offers the option of uploading these scanned images directly to SkyDrive. Of course, we imagine we'll soon be seeing a flood of developers proclaim their intent to journey "to the cloud." For more about HandyScan or the API, head to the links below.

drag2share: More EXOdesk details spill: at least two models in the works, ViewSonic wants in

Sadly, we'll still have to wait for CES to leave fingerprints allover the EXOdesk, but at least we've got a few more details to hold us over till then. For one, we now know that ExoPC has two models in the works -- one that's simply an external display and another that integrates a complete Core i7 computer running Windows 7. Apps specifically designed for the EXOdesk, coded in HTML5, will be available from the EXOstore. The company has already announced a number of planned programs, including a news reader, virtual keyboards, board games and musical instruments. It also looks like ViewSonic will be demoing its own 32-inch flavor of EXOdesk at CES, though whether or not the company actually plans to sell such a device remains a mystery. Check out the source link for a few more images.

drag2share: Samsung outs two new Series 5 laptops in Korea, claims they're Ultrabooks

Source: http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/12/samsung-outs-two-new-series-5-laptops-in-korea-claims-theyre-u/

Is there room on the Ultrabook wagon for two new models from Samsung? There's a 13-incher and a 14-incher, which both reportedly come under its Series 5 branding (previously used for Chromebooks), but at first glance only the smaller model might deserve its seat: it has the requisite Sandy Bridge processor and a perfectly compliant 0.59-inch thickness, but it adds 500GB of HDD storage on top of a 16GB SSD, which brings its weight right up to the 1.4kg (3.1 pound) limit. Meanwhile, the 14-inch variant scrapes through the 0.83-inch thickness criterion, but its 1TB HDD and discrete AMD graphics lead to a 1.8kg weight that seems well overboard. The pricing looks acceptable, with both models starting at the equivalent of around $1150, but we can't wait to see what happens when Intel inspects their tickets.
