Hasta La Gadget!

It was not too long ago when we brought you word that folks in Malaysia received an invite for an event that will be happening this coming September 18th, with speculation being traded around that this particular event could signal the introduction of the oft leaked BlackBerry Z30. Well, it seems that such an event is not going to happen in that part of the world alone, as BlackBerry did send out other invites for events on the same day in other countries, France and India included.

Who knows? This has led to speculations that point towards a highly anticipated BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) release for both Android and iOS platforms later this September 18th. After all, there were previous rumors that pointed out how a version of BBM will arrive at the corresponding App Stores by the end of this month. So, which do you think it is? Will it be a spanking new piece of hardware that will finally be announced later this September 18th, or will we see both iOS and Android mobile operating systems jump aboard the BBM bandwagon at long last? It might be difficult to see BlackBerry’s hardware business grow even if the Z30 does well, so perhaps they might want to pay more attention to software instead.

As of the 18th of September, iOS 7 will be out in the wild, and with it the final (or first, however you like to see it) full version of Siri. Up until now Siri has been labeled with a “Beta” tag by Apple for all of the devices that’ve used it – iPhone 4S, […]

Earlier this year Google enhanced the voice recognition search system embedded in the Chrome web browser for desktop machines so that it’d understand pronouns – then this ability came to Android, and now it heads to iOS. What this means for this week’s update of Chrome (version 29, that is), is that you’ll be able […]

While Nintendo might have been the household name back in the day when it came to handheld gaming and console gaming, the company has not exactly been enjoying much success as of late, with Sony’s PlayStation and Microsoft’s Xbox efforts overtaking them in terms of sales as well as the number of big titles. Unlike Sony and Microsoft, Nintendo has also refused to make the switch to the mobile market, believing that console game is still the way to go, but is it? Speaking to the BBC, Atari’s founder Nolan Bushnell seems pretty convinced that iOS and Android are expected to be more relevant than Nintendo’s handheld efforts in the future. (more…)

Google loves to throw small-yet-sensible interface updates into many Chrome releases, and the new Chrome 29 for iOS represents a textbook example. The browser’s voice search now supports contextual pronouns like “her” or “them;” ask a question and you can run a follow-up search without mentioning the subject by name. The update also lets you quickly jump back to search results if you visit the wrong result, and it’s now easier to view bandwidth savings if you have access to the experimental data compression feature. Should you like the smattering of new features, you can grab Chrome 29 now through the App Store.
