Samsung Galaxy Note Ad Further Shows How Creativity Can Be Expressed [Video]



Samsung’s quietly posted their first ad for the Samsung Galaxy Note, the 5.3 inch slate phone being marketed toward those who like to draw or who just want a great productivity device period. In this spot, they showcase how someone can extend a photo using a capacitive stylus and their imagination. They also show you can outline anything in a photo and cut it out then paste it into a different photo. If I were half as skilled as whoever can use these things in these ways I’d probably already be lining up for one. Watch the spot above.

Chrome Web Store gets a facelift



Google has quietly slipped a redesign of its app store for Chrome web apps. The new Chrome Web Store look (above) adopts a much cleaner layout than its predecessor (below). No longer are various store sections scattered all over the place. Instead, the redesign calls for all store features aligned vertically in the lefthand navigation pane, offering a one-click access to any category no matter what you’re currently browsing. Consistent with the broader changes in other Google properties, your account name is now in the upper right corner.

The store is a true web app: It’s zippy, has infinite scrolling and sports big screenshots to really bring items to life. Also cool is the use of overlays to open extension pages. The new look is being rolled out and it may take a while before it becomes available. If you don’t see it yet, check that you are logged in with your Google Account. The new interface works in the Chrome browser so expect and the old version will load when accessing the store with a browser other than Google’s.

Chrome Web Store expanded to 24 new countries last month and sixteen new markets a month earlier. The ten-month-old project is now available in 55 countries around the world and it hosts web apps which accept in-app payments with a flat five percent fee.

WidgetLocker Receives Massive Update, Ice Cream Sandwich Lock Screen Included



So much for that post this morning about GO Locker when WidgetLocker is dropping bombs like this. In the latest update for the most popular lock screen app on the planet, we get a massive list of new toys. Most notably is the Ice Cream Sandwich lock screen that works flawlessly while making you almost feel like you have the new OS running on your device. Couple it with all of those ICS tweaks we gave you last week and you might actually trick someone into believing it.
Android 4.0 lock screen isn’t the only big time addition here though. How about the Honeycomb and Sense 3.0 screens as well? Or the new clock that you can see featured in my shots above? A new UI interest you? One of the best app updates I have seen in a while. Nice work TeslaCoil team.

So you are using the tapatalk, does the that app does forget your favorites?

[Swisha]

Yeah I was getting that problem. Try installing it to the phone memory instead of the "external"

[S_2NR]

no probs with tapatalk here

[Swisha]

so Apple was granted the patent for "slide to unlock". like them putting all those billions to use in that patent office yes

and hey Apple drones who may be thinking "we invented it!"...



look familiar?

[Swisha]

Yeah I was getting that problem. Try installing it to the phone memory instead of the "external"

ok that didnt work for me either. as soon as i get one notification that a reply was posted in a favourite topic, it disappears

time to investigate more...

[shagadelic99tt]

i'm getting the same prob...have they found a solution for this yet?

[Swisha]

Folks don't know if this was discussed but this app enables you to download the daily Amazon free apps. You have to turn on 1-click ordering and use a US delivery address. I used my skybox address as my 1-click ordering default address and added my TT credit card as my 1-click ordering payment method...free app downloading now...no charges..but you have to turn 1-click ordering on to be able to download the free app. Be mindful to adjust your delivery address when you are actually ordering something from the Amazon store.

Here is the market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.top.free.apps.amazon.appstore.free.apps

so does this still work for anyone? tried to dwl OfficeSuite Pro 5 which is free today on Amazon but got the geographical restrictions error...

could just use 4shared, just type the name of the app with the extension apk. You pretty much get all apps.
