3 Educational Tablets for Kids as Young as 3
When you’re blanketed with all the gadgets available in the market, losing one or two is not a big deal.
But what if your treasured Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 that caused you your 5-months salary is finding its way into your kid’s mouth?
Do you think it’s time for your kid to have his own Apple, Samsung, Nokia or whatever tablet brand it is?
If your child puts things into his mouth, then he is still too young to own a gadget. But if he knows not a game but an application, then you have a genius in the family. Congratulations!
On one hand, you can still put a smile on your kid’s face because enterprising manufacturers have designed tablets specifically for kids as young as 7 months.
These 3 tablets for kids are educational and wallet-friendly too:
1. For only $26, your child can have his own tablet equipped with letters, phonics and numbers, and games. Fisher Price has made this education-focused Smart tablet possible for kids as young as 3.
2. LeapPad from LeapFrog. This $99 tablet with built-in camera and video recorder is also rich in kid-friendly applications. Your kid’s creativity is enhanced through LeapPad’s ArtStudio and Story Studio apps. LeapFrog’s LeapPad tablet also sends you regular updates on your child’s progress.
3. VTech tablet is a sure winner for kids who love to drop and throw things. Its applications allow kids to explore more. VTech is tough for only $80.

Sony Finds the Three Musketeers’ “Deadly”
A group of hackers known as “The Three Musketeers” hit the headlines by hacking Sony for the second time (the first was in April 2011).
The hackers group discovery of a key that could make all consoles decrypt the latest as well as future games has unfortunately made Sony a laughing stock. Worst, firmware upgrade can’t offer a cure. Sony, anyway, eyed a new console to counter this issue – it’ll be released soon.

How could a struggling electronics company win in a war, so far, starred by Apple and Samsung?

Why It Takes Forever To Watch Your Favorite Online Video?
Constantly interrupted with buffering messages while viewing your favorite online video?
Does this happen all throughout the day or at certain time when usage may be high? No, wait! Don’t axe your computer just yet. You have to remember patience is a virtue.
As one in you, I myself watched many, many online videos. I can tell you that I have a variety of reactions when streaming don’t go well.
Find out why it takes forever to complete a 30 minutes video. Hang in there, consider these top 3 culprits:
1. Hardware:
- Is your computer a member of the senior citizens league? Computer age has some effect on bandwidth performance.
- Is your router still covering your area? Did you check its condition? How about cables?
- Is your Wi-Fi secure? Is the signal strong? Or may be without you knowing, the whole community is using the service. Soo sad!
2. OS (operating system) and software:
- Did you forget to logout other background programs?
- Did you check if malware has a camp with a bonfire in your system?
- Did you check your hard drive’s capacity?
- Did you check if flash player's or video player's utilities are up to date?
3. ISP (Internet Service Provider):
- What is your speed? You might be paying for a speed that is not worth the price.
- ISP could be playing around your service. Don’t play with them, I dare you!
There are other questions that you should ask yourself before you scratch your head as if you’re infested with a community of lice.
Now that you are equipped with facts, go and fix those issues that are within your capacity.
If after all your effort still it takes you 24 hours to complete an hour of video, then it’s time to call your favorite superhero - your friendly technician or call your Internet Service Provider and tell them your sad story supported with virtual tears. I’m sure with a tear-soaked hanky your ISP will help you.

Apple Vs. Samsung - ROUND TWO!
Now is the right time to be a patent attorney. Why? Many lawsuits are filed every day and the good news is that many of those complaints are patent related.
The latest patent war is between the two digital media powers - Apple and Samsung. The lawsuit filed by Apple in California is still pending in court. Samsung fight back by filing countersuits in various countries. Despite winning in the UK court, Samsung still face bans on its other products. Its Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 felt a big blow across the European Union.
U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh has convince Apple and Samsung to settle the issue out of court, however, just like the never ending truce in Syria, a respite is unlikely at this time between the US Apple and South Korea’s Samsung.
Hey, thinking of shifting from a criminal lawyer to patent expert? Perky patent lawsuits flood the courts today. Whichever side wins, your life is not in danger. Go ahead, be a living hero!
