Hot off the press, it’s your morning dose of tech news. In today’s US Update we kick things off with a press release from RIM confirming the BlackBerry PlayBook will run Android apps. Then we jump on over to Laptop Magazine’s CTIA Wireless awards where the EVO 3D walked away with top honors and more.
The BlackBerry Playbook will support both BlackBerry Java and Android apps. RIM has outlined the details in a press release this morning. HTC has confirmed their Scribe technology, the magic behind that pen on the HTC Flyer, will be available for third party developers.
The HTC EVO 3D took top honors at CTIA Wireless, earning the best in show and best smartphone awards by Laptop Magazine. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 was also a winner, earning the best tablet award. In other Galaxy Tab 10.1 news, we have images that show the Galaxy Tab 10.1 on hand at CTIA Wireless is thicker than the iPad 2. Did Samsung throw us for a loop?
Last up this morning is news on the Duke Nukem Forever release. Unfortunately it appears we’ll be waiting even longer than expected as Gearbox software released a video this morning confirming the change of plans. The US release is set for June 14 and the international release will be June 10. That wraps up the latest and greatest in the tech world this morning. As always I’m Nick Marshall and I’ll see you again tomorrow.
