Sony Google TV’s to Receive Update This Week, Expect a Browser That ‘Works Faster’

Word has just been released from the Google TV camp that a new update should hit Sony devices this week. You can expect a fancy new Chrome browser that has been said to just “work faster,” and the update will also enable 3D for Blu-ray discs.

I know when I try and browse the web on my Logitech Revu I get frustrated with load times and often opt to grab my tablet instead. I’m just afraid the update might not apply to the Revu because we all know it was just discontinued and is pretty much a collectors item at this point. I guess this is a perfect opportunity to see if Logitech plans to maintain updates even though they just recently threw in the towel.

As for all Sony products go, you can bet your ass they will get the update. After seeing what sony has in store for this years Google TV products we know damn well they plan to continue their efforts.

If any of you get this update be a pal and let us know what it’s like, umkay? Thanks!

Navigate to ‘Droid 3 easy root’ folder you unzipped to...

Does RIM Have What It Takes To Catch Up To Android, iOS and Windows Phone?

As many know by now, the mighty duo of CEO’s at RIM, Jim Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis have stepped down only to promote one from within. Taking over as single and only CEO of Research in Motion is Thorsten Heins, a four year COO who worked closely under Jim and Mike. In recent news, he’s been given the cold stare thanks to making such statements as “I don’t think there is some drastic change needed,” and “We are evolving. We’re evolving our strategy, we’re evolving our tactics, our processes.” As one standing from the outside looking in, I’d argue in favor of a drastic change, personally. But hey, RIM’s the competition so I’m not pressing the issue. However, the question does arise, should Google’s Android be afraid? As much as I would love to shout from the roof top “ hell no! “, I”ll try to keep it professional here. With RIM falling drastically behind every quarter, Android, iOS and Windows Phone pretty much occupy the...
