Samsung Galaxy Note Coming to Rogers, Bell and TELUS in Feb

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

Rogers, Bell and TELUS have all confirmed the coming of Samsung's 5.3-inch Galaxy Note which brings a new paradigm to today's mobile devices. Not only does its screen size fall between large smartphones and small tablets, the Samsung Galaxy Note also uses a precision tip capacitive stylus that can be used to sign digital documents.

One of the prominent revelations at CES 2012, the Samsung Galaxy Note challenges the norm and creates a special place for itself in the mobile arena. Users who can look beyond the large size will realize it has numerous applications in business, for field personnel and seems almost designed for journalists who prefere to jot down notes rather than thumb-type them plus there's that 8 megapixel camera capable of HD video as well and the LTE data speeds, well that is the killer feature for a device like this.

The Galaxy Note will likely support drawing and sketching applications and we'd love to see how it can manage photo editing apps as well. The Samsung Galaxy Note will start at $249.99 and up.
Stay tuned for a walkthrough and review featured here real soon.

Video: Just how good is the iPhone 4S at recording HD video?

Pretty darn good. The video above was shot earlier today and came straight from the iPhone 4S exported into iMovie. We added a few transitions and titles but the video was not adjusted or altered in any way. Also, this was a handheld shot with me standing and trying to capture the zombies.

Pentax K-x DSLR brings HD video recording to the masses

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla PentaxK-X Pentax K-x DSLR brings HD video recording to the masses New Digital SLR camera brings HD movie recording, high-speed continuous shooting, and user-friendly operation in affordable, lightweight chassis. Pentax may not be the first name that comes to mind when it comes to starting market trends or innovations, but its newly announced K-x DSLR camera is challenging that perception by bringing DSLR HD recording to the great unwashed. Coming in October, the new Pentax K-x features a 12.4-megapixel sensor, Live View with fast face detection for up to 16 faces and 1280 x 270 pixel HDTV movie recording at 24 frames per second (which gives recordings a more film-like quality and is the standard frame rate for motion pictures). What's more, this camera shoots 4.7 images per second and offers an 11-point sensor and in-body shake reduction, making it capable of shooting action and sports photography, just like pro and enthusiast cameras costing up to three times more. In fact, compared to other cameras in this space, The Pentax K-x looks to take the oxymoron out of "High-Performance Entry-Class" with base model pricing starting at US$649, C$699. Movie quality HD recording was introduced in DSLR cameras last year, but shutterbugs who wanted HD video capabilities on a 12 megapixel DSLR at "consumer friendly prices" had to choose between scant offerings in Nikon's $900 D5000, or Canon's more recent $1,000 T1i. In North America, Pentax will offer the K-x in classic black but also red, navy, or white to position it as a fashion or lifestyle product. The K-x also looks to push the power efficiency envelop as it's to take 1,900 images on four AA-size lithium batteries.
