Posted: 04 Sep 2011 05:28 AM PDT


Not losing pictures from your memory card made easier.

Toshiba has announced it will launch FlashAir, the first SDHC memory card with embedded wireless LAN.


The new card will have an 8GB capacity and supports both peer-to-peer transfers and uploads to and downloads from servers.

The new product will start going on sale from February 2012, and will save users the trouble of using other transfer devices to get their photos on their PCs.

It will allow users to upload and download photographs to and from a server and to exchange photographs and other data with other devices, including digital cameras that are FlashAir compliant and, smartphones and PCs that support wireless LAN.

All transfers are done wirelessly, without any need for a cable connection. Even in digital cameras not comppatible with FlashAir, the new card can share digital images with smartphones and PCs that support wireless LAN.

There is no information on pricing yet.

Details of upcoming Amazon Kindle tablet revealed

Posted: 04 Sep 2011 04:00 AM PDT


A 7-inch Kindle tablet scheduled soon.

Definitive information about the Amazon Kindle tablet has been released by TechCrunch, who managed to get a hands-on experience with a Design Verification Testing version of the tablet.


According to the report, unlike previous Kindles, the display is in colour, has a 7-inch touch screen, is back lit and runs on Android, but doesn't have a camera.

The release date is also pipped to be the end of November 2011, with a 10-inch tablet in the works for Q1 2012, said the website.

While the tablet will run on Android, Amazon is a constant presence. The book reader sector is the Kindle app, it uses Amazon's Cloud Player for music and Amazon's Instant Video player for movies, with the app store being Amazon's Android appstore, according to the report.

The 7-inch tablet, which is initially slated to be Wi-Fi only, is said to cost $250 (£155 approx).

Doom ban lifted in Germany after 17 years

Posted: 04 Sep 2011 02:30 AM PDT


Buy Doom legally in Germany outside of adult shops.

The first person shooter game, Doom, is no longer under a ban in Germany.

In 1994, Germany banned the widespread sale of Doom, which was legally available to buy only in adult shops.

The change has come about since the Federal Department for Media Harmful to Young Persons (Bundesprufstelle) decided the game is now only of historical interest and will not be harmful for children.

An appeal was made by the game's creators, id Studios, which said many of the current gaming titles show more violence and horror than the original Doom series.

However, there is a version of the game which contains Nazi symbols that is still on the blacklist.


Do you think the game should've been released for wider sales years ago? Let us know what you think about banning games in general through our Twitter and Facebook pages and stay tuned in for more tech news.
