Sony Steps in with Two Android 3.0 Tablets

Sony has announced it will launch two Android tablets this fall that will offer an "Immersive Entertainment Experience."

Sony S1 (codename) is a 9.4 inch wedge shaped tablet optimized for rich media entertainment, and the S2 (codename) a clamshell tablet with two 5.5 in displays for mobile communication and entertainment. The fold in displays are rounded at the back.

Sony claims the off-center of gravity form factor of the S1 will make it more stable and easy to grip, offering comfortable use for hours.

The dual displays on the S2 can be used together as one large screen to browse websites, or as two separate screens to display different content. For example, users can watch a video on one screen and input commands on the other, or check email on one screen and use the other as a soft keyboard.

Both the tablets can be used as digital reading devices with easy access to ebooks at Sony's Reader™Store2.

The tablets can also be used as remote controls for home entertainment devices such as Sony's Bravia TV. Users can perform functions like turning on their TVs, changing the channel and adjusting the volume.

Both tablets will feature Wi-Fi and/or 3G/4G and be able to beam audio and video using DLNA wireless protocol.

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers Katy Perry continues working with the producers of GHD hair dryers and GHD hair care products: the singer once again demonstrated her luxurious hair in a fresh advertising campaign – this time she had the image of a diva from “the golden Hollywood” era (the pop-diva had already had the image of a hippie, a disco girl, and a mermaid). Luxurious dresses, bright makeup and a small portion of theatricality – one can immediately see that she is a star! The shooting was run by Ellen von Unwerth, who preferred to focus on restrained sensuality and the interplay of tones rather than on bright colors (the latter are always excessive with Katy) and presented black-and-white portraits of Perry to the public. The girl really looks perfect in the pictures : whether she is playing chess, recovering after a tiring concert or just getting ready to appear on stage. But whose merit is this: that of the photographer, the heroine, or maybe Photoshop?
