You can watch the video to see the tilt controls, and you should probably check out the four homescreens instead of the usual three from Symbian handsets. There are other shots of this X7 with an 8 Megapixel camera, and you can view them at my Source.

Until then, just be excited for the gaming potential of the X7.

iTV Shows HD provides a simple, effective way to follow the TV shows that you are interested in. Its content is aggregated from both The TV Database and TVRage to ensure that even the less well known shows are catalogued. The design of iTV Shows is clean and well thought-out, with the screens differing depending on whether you hold your device in landscape or portrait mode. Much like the Notes application, a directory sidebar is constantly visible when viewing iTV Shows in landscape mode, but is only visible in portrait mode when a button is pressed.

Adding a TV show is a really simple process. Click the plus button, enter in the name of the show, tap it, and that’s it. Rather neatly, the search box doesn’t hide as soon as a show has been added – meaning it takes a fraction of the time to add multiple shows. The application did get a little confused, understandably, between differentiations between the ampere sign (&) and the word (and), but this is more a database limitation rather than iTV’s problem.

Once shows are added, the aforementioned directory sidebar comes into play, providing the user with the latest timing information with regards to the show. For example, the application is currently telling me that The Good Wife is restarting in 13 days, September 28, and that the episode number and name is S02E01 (season 2 episode 1) – Taking Control. For shows like In Plain Sight and Curb Your Enthusiasm, the times are marked as TBA, or To Be Announced. Finally, shows like Frasier and The West Wing are marked as Ended, signifying that these shows have no new episodes airing. I’ll leave my personal disappointments aside. Going into more detail, when you tap on a specific show the application offers a wealth of information regarding episode numbers and names, as well a description of the show and full episode history. Each episode history contains its own short synopsis paragraph, taken straight from The TV Database or TVRage.

One feature that I’d like to touch on is the ability to mark a show as ’seen’ – which places a red bookmark similar to that on iBooks by that particular episode. Instead of having a red bookmark for every show, only one bookmark is placed, thereby implying that all of the above shows have been watched. This makes sense when you think about it – episodes of TV shows are typically watched in chronological order.

The application was somewhat slow in aggregating content for a TV show, particularly in series with a higher number of seasons. In addition, the lack of broadcasting information – like when and where it’s on – forces a user to look elsewhere. Finally, a push notification wouldn’t go amiss to alert you that one of the shows you watch is about to start, particularly given the fact that this is a paid-for application.

Overall, I am impressed with iTV Shows HD. It feels like a native version of a website like epguides.com, and the ability to mark TV shows as watched is very cool. If future updates satisfy the above, it’ll be worth every penny.

A few months ago we mentioned the Sound ID 510 bluetooth headset but today Sound ID announced three new models, the Sound ID 520, Sound ID 512, and Sound ID 500 which are priced between $80 and $130.

The new Sound ID bluetooth headsets support the EarPrint iPhone application and its battery life can last 5 hours on talking mode, or close to 135 hours in standby mode. Other features include a touch sensor volume so you can easily set the volume via a touch control, as well as multi-point technology so you can connect the headset to two devices at the same time.

While the ID 520 and 512 models have three microphones, the Sound ID 500 model has two mics which provides a reduction for the background noise.

- A2DP: Listen to music, GPS, web casts and more; the headset mutes music when a call comes in.
- Pass Thru Mode: Amplify surrounding sound while wearing the headset – allowing clear conversations “On” and “Off” the phone.

If the previous Augen Genbook108 didn’t please your needs when it comes to netbooks, take a look at the Genbook 108 which is a rugged version and should become available for purchase later this year.

By being rugged the Algix XRW netbook can withstand drops from 1.2 meters, and can also work under extreme temperature conditions as well as being shock-proof. In terms of specifications it has a 10.1-inch screen with a resolution of 1024
