When we consider upgrading tablets, we generally like to look forward and future-proof ourselves as much as possible to ensure that we don’t have to buy another tablet in the near future. If you don’t, you usually end up with a out-of-date tablet in only a month or two. One of the features that really enjoyed with the Note 10.1 was the ability to write with excellent precision and the feeling that you are actually writing with pen and paper. Improv Electronics has created a way for you to take notes and precision handwriting, while keeping any device that you might already own.
A Better Way To Take Notes
While I’ve always liked the idea of the Boogie Board, I rarely have found an occasion that I personally would really use one. The ability to take notes and have them permanently stay on screen is neat, but you quickly run out of room and have no backup or digital way to save them – until now. The new Boogie Board SYNC from Improv Electronics fills in that hole by providing a method of both backing up and syncing with nearly any device.
The new Boogie Board saves all data and entries directly to an SD card, meaning that you can take notes on the go then connect them to any of your devices later on (both wired and wirelessly) and sync them all up. The booth had some early prototypes of the unit (as well as the desktop and mobile applications) all showing the syncing across all devices, almost real-time with each stroke. The new SYNC could allow many users to write, draw, and take notes all with a realistic pen and paper feel – without needing a new tablet or stylus optimized screen. Improv stated that the product will likely be available late 2013 to the public.



“Turns any platform with a 2D camera into a 3D motion device” – a bold statement by Extreme Reality to bring the 3D motion world into a tablet and smartphone dominated market. Extreme Reality wants to close the gap between smartphones, consoles, and PCs by erasing the hardware restrictions of owning a product such as the Kinect by enabling any 2D front or rear facing camera of generating a 3D motion end-product.
We’ve all wasted countless hours on flash games – whether it’s been on a PC during a work break, or when you’re supposed to be studying for an upcoming exam. They’ve all provided loads of fun and I’m always excited to see some make their way to Android with a revamped design and interface. Today we’re going to check our “Hanger” and it’s new Android variant brought to us by A Small Game:
Looking for a quick and easy way to keep track of your weight/progress to losing weight? Small time studio Kaikishoku Software has you covered; our second Indie App this week is a simple weight-tracking application which allows you to record current weight , set goals, and keep track of the weight over time to help track your progress towards maintaining the weight you desire.

When given the opportunity to save money on a product, I always hunt for the best deal. Whether it is digitally with games, or physically with groceries, electronic devices, etc. Using an application which looks up online prices can be nice, but doesn’t offer the same benefit as one which uses your feedback and pricing for future reference. Developer Cryptopone has created yet another helpful application which allows you to track the prices of products at the price per-pound/per-unit level to ensure that you find the best deal across all of your local stores. 



While multitasking on Android has never been an issue, there are points in time when we would like to make it a little easier for ourselves. Developer ‘ssspeg’ has created a very small but useful application that will allow you to multitask without having to touch any buttons, let alone the device itself. Using hand gestures detected by the proximity sensor on your device, Smartswitcher allows you to multitask between applications, utilize media buttons, and much more.
