    Here is the first trailer for the fourth Underworld film Underworld: Awakening. It looks great, I enjoyed watching all the movies and this looks like it could end up being the best of the series, especially with Kate Beckinsale return to reprise her role in this, and she looks better than ever. Watch the trailer below:

    Movie Synopsis:

    After being held in a coma-like state for fifteen years, vampire Selene (Kate Beckinsale) learns that she has a fourteen-year-old vampire/Lycan hybrid daughter, Nissa, and when she finds her they must stop BioCom from creating super Lycans that will kill them all.

  • iPad 2 Runs WebOS Twice as fast as HP TouchPad

    // Gradly // Apple, blog, iPad, News 1 Response

    Hewlett-Packard engineers hacked iPad 2 to install webOS only to find out Apple’s hardware runs their mobile operating system more than twice as fast compared to their own TouchPad hardware, according to The Next Web:

    The hardware reportedly stopped the team from innovating beyond certain points because it was slow and imposed constraints, which was highlighted when webOS was loaded on to Apple’s iPad device and found to run the platform significantly faster than the device for which it was originally developed.

    It should be pointed out that webOS  runs on single core Qualcomm ARM chips while iPad 2 runs on dual core Samsung silicon.

    With a focus on web technologies, webOS could be deployed in the iPad’s Mobile Safari browser as a web-app; this produced similar results, with it running many times faster in the browser than it did on the TouchPad.

    TNW also details how the news went down within HP.

    Almost everyone at HP found out about the death of the TouchPad and Pre hardware as the public did, in the press release. Only the top executives knew anything about this decision and even senior staff as high as Ari Jaaksi, the Vice President of webOS software, didn’t know about the shuttering of hardware before it happened.

    After the press release came out, there was a company wide meeting filled with a bunch of ‘corporate speak’, in which staff were told that they were going to be in limbo for 3-4 weeks.

    A new gameplay trailer for Battlefield 3 has just been released that shows off intense 64-player vehicle warfare, including jets, from multiplayer map Caspian Border!

As a U.S. Marine in the field, periods of tension and anticipation are punctuated by moments of complete chaos. As bullets whiz by, as walls crumble, as explosions force players to the ground, the battlefield feels more alive and interactive than ever before.

    EA also revealed that two new characters in the game that will be playable in the campaign missions. Dmitri “Dima” Mayakovsky, a Russian undercover agent, who will be fighting his way through the Paris stock exchange, and  Jonathan “Jono” Miller, a Marine Corporal who will be engaging PLR forces in the Tehran desert via a massive tank battle.
