			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<br/><p><a href="http://thegadget411.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/NSZ-GP9_Blu-rayDiscPlayer_powered_by_Google_TV_lg.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2770" title="NSZ-GP9_Blu-rayDiscPlayer_powered_by_Google_TV_lg" src="http://thegadget411.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/NSZ-GP9_Blu-rayDiscPlayer_powered_by_Google_TV_lg.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="254" /></a></p>
<p>Sony Electronics today announced the addition of two new home devices powered by the Google TV™ platform. Sony was one of the industry’s first to launch the ‘Google TV’ products in 2010, and is now taking another step into the future of the home entertainment convergence. The NSZ-GS7 Network Media Player and NSZ-GP9 Blu-ray Disc™ Player will both arrive on shelves in North America and Europe in early summer 2012, and distribution is planned to expand and include other countries and regions.</p>
<p>“The first generation of devices powered by Google TV combined the powerful Android platform with Sony’s legendary home audio/video hardware to deliver on the promise of converging entertainment,” said Charles Speidel, vice president of Sony Electronics’ Home Audio and Video Division. “These brilliant additions advance positive features of the previous models, bringing an intuitive remote control and cross-device connectivity with smartphones, tablets and Sony Internet Audio &amp; Video products – enhancing the home entertainment experience.”</p>
<p>In 2010, Sony introduced the world&#8217;s first television and a Blu-ray Disc player powered by Google TV. In 2011, the platform was updated and added the Android™ Market, making the first-generation Sony Internet TV devices easier to navigate and giving viewers access to thousands of apps, including about 150 apps optimized for TV, for an enhanced customized entertainment experience.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter  wp-image-2769" title="NSZ-GS7_Network_Media_Player_powered_by_GoogleTV_lg" src="http://thegadget411.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/NSZ-GS7_Network_Media_Player_powered_by_GoogleTV_lg.jpg" alt="" width="504" height="295" /></p>
<p>The Google TV difference starts with the cross search functionality, which crawls all content sources available from broadcast providers* and the Internet to deliver customized video results on demand.  Both new boxes come complete with a redesigned remote control equipped with a backlit QWERTY keyboard, a touch pad for easy operation and a three-axis motion sensor to enjoy games. Additionally, the remote control can also be utilized as a universal remote to control connected devices such as TV, set top box and amplifiers &#8211; the NSZ-GP9 Blu-ray Disc Player even incorporates voice search capabilities. By using Sony apps Media Remote™ and TrackID® for Android and iOS mobile devices, users may achieve cross-device connectivity. TrackID is also pre-installed in NSZ-GS7 and NSZ-GP9, allowing customers to search on their connected TV.  The new remote control can manage basic operations on select compatible 2012 BRAVIA televisions and seamlessly display Android Market or apps on the menu screen.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<br/><p><a href="http://thegadget411.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/motorola_droid_2_verizon-540x429.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2337" title="motorola_droid_2_verizon-540x429" src="http://thegadget411.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/motorola_droid_2_verizon-540x429-300x238.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="238" /></a> Verizon Wireless today announced that DROID™ 2 by Motorola will be available for pre-sale on August 11.   Hitting all the right keys, DROID 2 is a feature-packed device that  helps manage work and social life with an enhanced QWERTY keyboard,  ultra high-speed Web browsing, 3G Mobile HotSpot capabilities, full push  corporate e-mail, intuitive social messaging and Adobe® Flash® Player  10.1 for access to the full web – all built on Android 2.2.</p>
<p>&#8220;When  we announced DROID X last month, we reaffirmed our commitment to  continue to bring unique Android experiences to the Verizon Wireless  network,&#8221; said Jeffrey Dietel, vice  president – wireless device, marketing and development for Verizon  Wireless.  &#8221;The DROID by Motorola was our first Android device, so it is  important for us to include the successor to that phone in our  portfolio.  DROID 2 is not only a continuation of our commitment to  Android but offers customers the features and form-factor they crave on  the Verizon Wireless network.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;With the new DROID 2, we&#8217;ve taken a big leap forward from the original DROID,&#8221; said Bill Ogle,  chief marketing officer of Motorola Mobile Devices and Home Business.   &#8221;We listened to consumers and are providing an even more robust  experience built on Android 2.2 that includes a new keyboard, increased  processing power, Adobe Flash Player 10.1 and 3G Mobile HotSpot  capabilities to send, access and share information even quicker than  before.&#8221;</p>
<p>DROID  2&#8242;s super-slim design helps customers e-mail, text and tweet with ease.   DROID 2 offers a redesigned symmetrical keyboard with raised keys for  more responsive typing<em> </em>to push out notes and status updates.   Speech-to-text input and the virtual multi-touch keyboard allow for  quick messaging; or customers can also use Swype for even easier text  input.  In addition, full push corporate e-mail delivers enhanced  features such as remote wipe and password enforcement so that  information remains secure.</p>
<p>DROID 2  packs power and speed.  Customers can enjoy the freedom of wireless  with the 3G Mobile HotSpot and the ability to connect up to five  compatible Wi-Fi® devices, and watch content on the full multi-touch  3.7-inch brilliant display, or share content captured on the 5-megapixel  camera with enhanced functionality and DVD-quality video capture with  DLNA connectivity to share on compatible devices.</p>
<p>Customers  can also download favorite apps from Android Market™, which has more  than 70,000 applications, and store them on 8 GB of preloaded on-board  memory and the 8 GB microSD™ card, which can be upgraded to a 32 GB SD  card for a total cargo capacity of 40 GB.  Popular apps available on  DROID 2 include NFL Mobile (downloadable), Skype mobile™ and BLOCKBUSTER  On Demand® presented by V CAST Video.  Customers can even manage their  wireless accounts or their contacts from their phones with My Verizon and with Backup Assistant(SM).</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s great to see amazing new smartphones like the DROID 2 come pre-installed with Flash Player 10.1,&#8221; said David Wadhwani,  senior vice president and general manager, Creative and Interactive  Solution Business Unit at Adobe.  &#8221;With the completely redesigned and  hardware accelerated Flash Player 10.1, DROID 2 users will be able to  experience the full Web on the go.&#8221;</p>
<p>Adobe  Flash Player 10.1 lets mobile users experience millions of websites the  way they were meant to be seen – with rich Internet applications (RIAs),  content inside the browser, including games, animations, data  presentations and visualizations, e-commerce, music, video, audio and  more.</p>
<p><strong>R2-D2 DROID 2</strong></p>
<p>In honor of the iconic Astromech Droid from the <em>Star Wars</em>™  Saga, Verizon Wireless will offer a limited-edition R2-D2 version of  the DROID 2, available only online in September.  The special version of  the phone will feature exclusive <em>Star Wars</em> content and external hardware designed to look like the trusty Droid from the film saga.  Visitors to the upcoming <em>Star Wars</em> Celebration V in Orlando, Fla., can see a preview of the limited edition phone and sign up to receive alerts when the phone is ready for sale.</p>
