D-Link unveils Mobile Companion router

D-Link unveils Mobile Companion router, featuring on-the-go device charging, USB sharing, and Wi-Fi hotspot

The DIR-505 All-in-One Mobile Companion by D-Link, which just came fresh out of the oven here at CES, is essentially a mini wireless router with a host of additional extras any traveling smartphone or tablet user would find useful.

In addition to being able to plug into any existing wired network using its integrated 10/100 Ethernet port and create a wireless access point, the DIR-505 can charge your device via its USB interface.

Also, when a USB storage device is plugged in, you can easily sync files to any Andriod or iOS powered device in the area using the free SharePort Cloud app.

Its small profile allows for easy carrying, plus the hardwired AC plug means no lugging around additional adapters or cables (if you stay in the US, anyway).

At under $75, the DIR-505 will be available throughout the US this April.

Colorware now lets you customize your Samsung Galaxy S4 paintjob

Colorware, a US-based company which specializes in creating custom paintjobs for a wide range of consumer electronics, has added the Samsung Galaxy S4 to its list of supported devices.

Unfortunately, getting yourself a custom-colored Samsung Galaxy S4 will set you back a cool $1000.

Colorware’s process involves taking apart a brand new Galaxy S4, individually masking and painting all your selected parts, reassembly and inspection, and then shipping you the finished product after about 14 days.

It’s important to note that the price includes a brand new unlocked GSM Galaxy S4 (you can’t provide your own), and that the disassembly process will void your manufacturer warranty (although Colorware offer a one year warranty of its own, as well as an extended warranty).

So, if you want to sport the latest and greatest in colors no one else has, you can get your colorized Galaxy S4 here. They also have custom iPhone 5‘s and BlackBerry Q10‘s as well.

Clash of the titans - HTC Sensation vs

Clash of the titans - HTC Sensation vs. Samsung Galaxy S II [TABLE]

HTC Sensation has just been announced and it couldn’t sound juicer with its 1.2Ghz dual-core Snapdragon processor, 768MB of RAM, 4.3-inch resolution with qHD resolution of 560×940 pixels. Combine that with an 8MP auto-focus camera capable of capturing 1080p full HD videos and the Samsung Galaxy S II has a real rival coming up against it.

It all sounds intriguing, but let’s point the stage lights at the facts and let them talk for themselves.

	HTC Sensation	Samsung Galaxy S II
OS	Android 2.3 with HTC Sense	Android 2.3 with TouchWiz 4.0
Display	4.3-inch S-LCD	4.3-inch Super AMOLED Plus

Availability	May (UK only) mid June (globally)	1 May (UK)
Sensors	Gyroscope, G-Sensor, Digital Compass, Ambient Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor	Gyroscope, Accelerometer, Digital Compass, Ambient Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor

So there you have it, compared to the HTC Sensation, the Samsung Galaxy S II is noticeably thinner and lighter, but its Super AMOLED Plus screen, despite the same size, has a lower resolution. Both devices are expected to hit the shelves this May in the UK and couple of weeks later in the rest of the markets. Pricing for both devices is still unknown, but should become clear in the following week or so.

Atom turns 3 and passes the 100 million mark

Atom turns 3 and passes the 100 million mark, doesn't intend to stop there

Intel’s Atom line of mobile processors, usually found in netbooks, celebrates their third birthday, which accidentally coincides with the company shipping over 100 million Atoms overall.

It’s quite an achievement indeed but the company doesn’t really intend to stop with the Atom roaring about in every other netbook on the market. No, Intel is planning to put the new generation of Atom CPUs to good use in what they are calling “companion devices”.

These products are going to be based on the netbooks we all know and tablets, which are all the craze right now. Intel even dared to showcase such a device, which boots into MeeGo, Android and Windows. Why choosing one OS for your future tablet, when you could have three?

5 for Android starts rolling out

Gmail 4.5 for Android starts rolling out

Google has released the v4.5 update for the Gmail app for Android, which brings with it some UI changes, some of which are in tune with the recent changes seen on Gmail website.

The first thing you’ll notice is that Google has done away with the bottom bar that hosted buttons for new mail, search, labels, refresh and menu. Three of those have now been moved to the action bar on top and refresh has been included in the UI in the form of pull to refresh. The options in the drop down menu on top to move between your accounts, folders and labels has now been moved into a drawer on the left.

You will also notice that Gmail now shows contact images for your mails. If a mail has multiple contacts, it shows them in a grid similar to the Hangouts app. If there is no contact image, it just shows the first letter of the sender in a colored background, which does look a bit silly. You can disable sender images for the mails if you wish from the settings.

v4.5 also includes the four new inbox options. You can have your mail sorted by Primary, Social, Promotions and Updates as you can on Gmail web, which makes it easy to keep track of your mail.

Gmail 4.5 is now rolling out slowly to Android users worldwide. You can wait for it to be made available in your regions or you can download and install the APK from the link below.
