Apple breaks 1 million app download mark on Mac App Store Posted: 09 Jan 2011 12:52 PM PST Mac App Store in just its first day. This is pretty amazing, considering there are just slightly more than a thousand free and paid apps to choose from, so it goes to show just what kind of strength of depth that Apple has with their customers and loyalists. According to Steve Jobs, Apple's CEO, "We're amazed at the incredible response the Mac App Store is getting. Developers have done a great job bringing apps to the store and users are loving how easy and fun the Mac App Store is." Apps in various categories such as Education, Games, Graphics & Design, Lifestyle, Productivity, and Utilities are available, alongside a user ratings and review system to help you make a more informed and educated decision before purchase.

Samsung and DIRECTV announces partnership Posted: 09 Jan 2011 12:43 PM PST
The RVU protocol will see action on Samsung's LED D6000, LED D6400 and LED 6420 TV range which will in turn reflect the company's commitment to delivering consumers high-quality, visually enhanced and connected entertainment experiences in their home. A RUI technology that is based on industry standards such as DLNA and UPnP, RVU enables a set-top box server to provide a multi-room, complete viewing experience which will comprise of DVR services, all without having to have additional set-top boxes in homes that already contain more than a single connected TV. DIRECTV’s RVU server itself is capable of supporting multiple connected televisions, where it will allow the user interface and features to be displayed straight on those connected TVs. This partnership will see Samsung embed support for RVU in their smart TVs and providing its customers with the full DIRECTV experience, including DVR services, live pause abilities on all screens in the home, 200 hours worth of shared storage, picture-in-picture capabilities and the power to record up to five shows at once. Patience is a virtue though, as Samsung's RVU-compatible TVs will be available only in a couple of months’ time this year for a yet undisclosed price point. At least that gives you time to start saving up for a new TV, right? Cool Gift Idea: Digital Picture Frames, check out our reviews.

Garmin GHS 20/20i Wireless Remote Handset Posted: 09 Jan 2011 12:42 PM PST Garmin is more often than not known for their range of GPS navigation devices, and this time around in conjunction with the London International Boat Show, the company decided to roll out something slightly different from the usual – the Garmin GHS 20/20i Wireless Remote Handset. To put it in layman’s terms, these are a couple of full-function wireless remotes which will play nice with Garmin’s range of compatible VHF (Very Hugh Frequency) radios (case in point – Garmin's VHF 200 and VHF 300 series radios, alongside the VHF 200i and VHF 300i international radios). The use of the GHS 20 or GHS 20i means your boat's communication station does not have to be stationary any more, making it an invaluable accessory to mariners since it provides freedom to move around the boat without losing an iota of control of their VHF radio. Sporting a rugged, waterproof form factor that is easy and simple to use, the GHS 20/20i will come with a backlit LCD display, soft keys, a rotary knob to adjust the volume, squelch and channel selection, and a built-in speaker mic for use in loud environments. With the intercom function, mariners are able to communicate with the base station, where the GHS 20/20i wireless handset will also sport a DSC distress function and 16/9 or 16+ channel selection right on the handset. Featuring a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, both remote headsets are able to deliver up to 18 hours of juice, and if you need to provide a quick boost, there is always the option to purchase a charging cradle to go along with the works. There is a bundled version available which will see the GHS 20/20i come with a GWH 20 wireless hub, where the latter delivers Bluetooth connectivity to your VHF radio. The wireless hub is able to support up to a trio of GHS 20/20i handsets onboard, providing you with the flexibility to expand your onboard communication system, while giving you the ability to use walky-talky capabilities between handsets. They aren’t available now but will hit the retail market sometime in Q2 this year, where the GHS 20 is tipped to go for $299.99, while the GHS 20 with GWH 10 bundle will cost another Benjamin more. For international use, the GHS 20i sports a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $349.99, while those who are looking forward to the GHS 20i with the GWH 20 bundled will have to fork out $449.99.
