Sony and partners will start manufacturing the Playstation 4 toward the end of this year, with a launch scheduled for 2012.
Details surrounding Sony’s PlayStation 4 are very limited for the time being, but reports state that the new console will feature integrated movement-based controls similar to the Microsoft Kinect controller.

A blog posted a hands-on video showing off several features of Sony’s S1 Android Honeycomb tablet.
The S1 was announced in April, alongside the foldable S2, and is set for a fall release.
Apple has been very consistent with the iPhone screen size - 3.5 inches and that's it. Of course, four iterations of equally-sized display didn't discourage the bigger iPhone or iPhone nano rumors. The latest in the series is a photo of an alleged iPhone 5 screen digitizer, which shows a much thinner bezel around the screen.
Now, a thinner bezel is great - it lets you do things like keep the screen size but shrink the phone or keep the phone size and upsize the screen. Or you change both measurements, of course.

Apple might say we're in the post-PC era, but hey -- turns out they still make Macs in Cupertino, and thenew MacBook Pro is actually one of the more aggressive refreshes in the machine's history. Not only has it been less than a year since the last MacBook Pro spec bump, but our 15-inch review unit is actually the first Sandy Bridge system we've received from any manufacturer. And it's not just the CPU that's new: Apple's also launching the new Thunderbolt high-speed interconnect, and there's been a big switch to an AMD Radeon HD 6750M GPU paired with Intel's integrated HD Graphics 3000, an arrangement that should offer both solid graphics performance and great battery life. That's a lot of new parts in a familiar case -- but do they add up to something more than just a speed bump? Read on for our full review!

Sitting pretty in the hand, the small Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo smartphone and its 8.1-megapixel camera offer photographic skills far beyond what you'd expect for its 125g weight.
The 3.7-inch screen with multi-touch Reality display is nice and sharp, and benefits colour-wise from Mobile Bravia technology. However it fares poorly in direct sunlight, with us having to pull the ol' hand-as-a-sun-blocker move.
The phone is small enough to use comfortably with one hand, so it's not a huge problem, but essentially, with smartphones such as the Samsung Galaxy S2 carrying AMOLED and the Apple iPhone 4 with its Retina display technology, should we really be having problems with direct sunlight any more?

The Nokia E6 follows on from its E-Series QWERTY predecessors such as 2010's Nokia E5, providing the best E-Series camera yet, touch screen navigation and the home screen capabilities of the Symbian^3 platform.
The Nokia E6 is priced at £320, twice the price of its simpler sibling, the Nokia E5, but £80.00 cheaper than its weightier big brother, the Nokia E7.
When we compare the Nokia E6 with BlackBerry's offerings it is slightly cheaper than the non-touch BlackBerry Bold 9780, at £340.

The new Amazon Kindle 3 has been the most hyped eBook reader of the year.
With a hugely competitive £109 price-tag, decent specs and the backing of the UK's biggest book etailer, even before launch it's made many of the other eBook readers out there look outclassed and hugely overpriced.
But does it live up to expectations?
The Amazon Kindle looked for a while as though it was going to be lost in the tablet hype-fest as a hopelessly under-specced footnote on the path to iPad supremacy.
But with the new Kindle 3, Amazon has absolutely shown there's plenty of life in the dedicated eBook reader yet.
