The week’s just begun, the sun is out, and it’s time for a sandwich. But before you break out the Hovis, make sure you chow down on the tastiest tech morsels, with Russell Brand promoting HP’s Touchpad, Apple being hacked, BBC banning Twitter, and PS4 news.
HP has Russell Brand promoting its Touchpad – strange, yes, but not as strange as some of these tech pairings of the past.
Apple’s been hacked! Don’t worry, it’s nothing that’ll reach Mac owners just yet, but it doesn’t bode well for the future.
Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 10.1 is getting an update to Android Honeycomb, which is great news, as it’s optimised for tablets. So what’ll be new? A new keyboard that lets you copy and paste pics and vids as well as text, a livepanel homescreen widget, and the latest version of Swype, that’s what.
The BBC’s considering banning stars and production staff tweeting about upcoming projects, after a series of leaks. Good luck enforcing that one, Auntie.
