Don’t worry – juice packs are available for other smartphones and devices. If pricing (starting @ ~ $100) and technical specs are desired link here.
Perhaps amazing and hilarious is the mis-communication tweet from Vatican Communications. The hilarious mis-tweet was claimed to be a ‘mistake in translation’ and reads “@PCCS_VA21 Marv Holy switcheroo! Batman has grown bitter, more vengeful with the years http://bit.ly/11nYyul “. The mis-tweet was posted on March 21. An image of the tweet should be found posted with this writing. Will there be more funny stuff coming from the Vatican Communications account? Find out by following @PCCS_VA. Some hilarious tweets were posted (March 21, 2013) on some BBC twitter accounts but that was due to hacking by a pro-Syria group.
According to Tech Bytes and Muller, the Blackberry Z10 should be available next week. The amazing number one thing would be for the Z10 to “save Blackberry”. Otherwise, the folks at Blackberry (formerly RIM) have done some slightly amazing demos on live television and elsewhere. The screen does have a different and attractive design and may bring some newcomers to the “Crackberry cult”. You don’t have to “wait” to buy your Z10 you may pre-order it now. However, buyer beware, it is expected to be a little pricey but not too much.
In a separate report Newsy Grab Media (March 22, 2013) tell of the plans let out on the possible Google smart-watch. The Google smart-watch may have been covered by U. S. Patent 8,279,716. It will be interesting to see how it compares to the Pebble. Pebble may have some issues and we have yet to find their patent. Back to hilarity – Will Sasso has found himself a niche on Vine. You can see his hijinx on the Gawker compilation of his “Vine Lemon” videos. It may be corny and slapstick but you will have to control yourself if you view it at work.
