Hasta La Gadget!

We know one of the main reasons why most people purchase an external hard drive is in order to keep those files that are most precious to them off of their computer. The last thing you want to happen is for your computer to completely shut down, leaving your memorable photos, music and any other important documents completely inaccessible. But sometimes, backup storage solutions could fail as well, which is why Seagate is announcing its new Rescue and Replace plans.

It seems that the Xbox Music subscription music streaming service will be expanded to work on rival mobile platforms – namely iOS and Android, where it will also feature a free Web player that will obviously cost you nary a single cent because it will be ad supported. Microsoft hopes to further expand the reach of their Xbox Music streaming service through the launch of corresponding apps via the iOS and Android mobile operating systems.

In the past, Xbox Music was only available only to users of devices that ran on the Windows platform, but it seems that the service would now enable users of both Android and iOS devices to be able to subscribe, where in turn they would receive unlimited access to their preferred music via the Xbox Music Pass. This Xbox Music Pass will retail for $9.99 per month, or $99.99 per year, depending on the length that suits you better. The Web player, as mentioned earlier, will be on an ad-supported basis, or you can take the ad-free route by forking out a little bit of dough. Users of the free Web service will be able to enjoy on-demand access to 30 million songs, now how about that for variety, eh?

Earlier this year, Samsung announced the ATIV Q which was a rather interesting hybrid device which ran both Windows and Android at the same time. However there were apparently some patent issues that Samsung ran into regarding the ATIV Q that led to rumors that Samsung could be cancelling the device because of that, which is definitely a bummer of sorts to those who were looking forward to getting their hands on the product sometime later this year. Well the semi-good news is that Samsung has not cancelled the ATIV Q, but neither will it be launching this year.

This is according to German website, AllAboutSamsung whom Samsung confirmed the news to, stating that the launch of the ATIV Q will not be happening this year. This does not sound like the device has been cancelled, and we’re guessing the earliest we could then see the device would be in 2014. We’ll keep our ears open for more news regarding the ATIV Q, but what do you guys think? Are you a bit bummed that this interesting hybrid will not be available for purchase this year? Or is the mixture of Windows and Android a little too gimmicky for your tastes?

Apple unveiled the next version of its OS X operating system, called OS X Mavericks, just a few months ago. Since its unveiling, OS X Mavericks has been seeded to developers to allow them to improve their software prior to its launch, although at this point, Apple has yet to make any official announcements as to when we should expect Mavericks to be made available. Even though Apple hasn’t made any official announcements, that hasn’t stopped people from speculating as to when it’ll finally be released. (more…)
