HP teases new Envy all-in-one printer, glass and metal dotted all over (video)

We all love teasers, so it's rather swell that HP decided to tease its next Envy-branded all-in-one printer at the Global Influencer Summit in Shanghai - almost two years after introducing the Envy 100. As you can see in the above slide and the extremely brief video teaser after the break, this time round the design will feature a glass control panel, as well as a metal scan bar and a metal hinge under the scanner's see-through lid. Pretty hot, we'd say, and this certainly sets a good example of how the new Printing and Personal Systems Group is already bringing a better design consistency across what used to be two different groups.

Dish Network Remote Access iPad app upgrade brings a new UI, more speed

Sure, it's not as revolutionary as the new automated ad skipping built into its DVRs, but Dish Network has also just revamped its Remote Access iPad app. While other pay-TV providers are proud about streaming channels to mobile devices only within the home or shifting a few recordings, Dish's tight Sling integration still provides the most video wherever the user might be, as well as DVR management, a full guide and remote control.

Sony patent suggests a self-adjusting autostereoscopic display

If you've ever played with the Nintendo 3DS or smartphones like the HTC EVO 3D or the LG Optimus 3D Max, you'll quickly realize that there is a "sweet spot" from which you will be able to view the screen and all of its 3D glory without the aid of 3D glasses. Unfortunately this isn't exactly the most convenient way to go about viewing such displays which might explain Sony's recent patent (via USPTO) for an autostereoscopic display that will be able to adjust itself based on the user's position. What this means is that you will no longer have to sit in that sweet spot while watching your shows on an autostereoscopic 3D display.

We're sure Samsung isn't playing favorites. but after that rather extravagant product launch just the other week, it seems it's released another phone to market with barely a streamer nor slice of cake in sight.

Samsung to sell ultra-thin $9,000 OLED HDTV in second half of 2012

. Samsung on Thursday announced plans to launch its new flat-panel OLED TVs during the second half of this year, according to The Washington Post. OLED technology is still new and therefor very expensive. The company's high-end 55-inch OLED TV will be priced double Samsung's current offerings, costing more than $9,000 when it launches in South Korea. The technology provides users with improved picture quality and deeper color saturation with high contrast. OLED technology also allows vendors to develop thinner and lighter TVs, and Samsung believes it will take two to three year before it becomes an industry standard.

Is Microsoft Planning to Limit Your Browser Choice on Windows 8 Tablets?

Despite Microsoft's newly upgraded Internet Explorer web browser, many people are still opting for browsers like Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. However, a blog post by Mozilla indicates that Microsoft is allegedly planning to limit user choice for web browsers on the tablets that will run Microsoft's upcoming OS, Windows 8. According to the blog post, on ARM-based devices running the OS, the only web browser that will be allowed to run in Windows Classic mode will be the company's own Windows Explorer.

Samsung definitely didn't copy Apple with the design of this phone

. As Samsung and Apple continue to sue each other all over the world, Apple has repeatedly asserted that the South Korea-based vendor builds “copycat” devices that make unlawful use of Apple's patents and steal elements of Apple's designs. Only one court has wholeheartedly agreed with Apple's claims thus far, but the battles continue and will likely carry on for quite some time despite renewed settlement talks.

Tesla posts $89.9M Q1 loss, Model S coming sooner than expected

It seems like we've been hearing about the Tesla Model S for a decade, but a report in Yahoo. states that the electric sedan is only a month away from production. That's about one month ahead of schedule, as Tesla is reportedly wrapping up crash testing fast enough to start making the hotly anticipated EV. The Model S couldn't come at a much better time for Tesla, as the automaker just announced a first quarter loss of $89.9 million. The prospects aren't any better for Q2, but the second half of the year should be an entirely different story.

Just the other day we reported that iOS users who have updated their iOS devices to version 5.1.1 would be able to jailbreak their devices thanks to the redsn0w jailbreak tool. Granted it's a tethered jailbreak, we're assuming that it's still better than nothing, right. Either way the good news is that if you'd prefer an untethered jailbreak and you don't mind giving up on the 5.1.1 update, the upcoming redsn0w update will allow users to downgrade their A5-powered iOS devices (i.e. iPhone 4S, iPad 2 and the new iPad) to iOS 5.0.1, thus providing them with an untethered jailbreak solution.

Facebook starts App Center beta, readies itself for paid web apps

Facebook is no stranger to letting members use real money in web apps, but only for in-app purchases. Its new App Center on the web and in mobile versions will let you buy web apps that have an up-front cost to use rather than shoehorning you into a freemium or subscription model. The portal will even have its own shopping portal, although it'll mostly be based around - surprise - recommendations coming from your social network profile. The addition should, in theory, lead to premium games and other apps that wouldn't fit into the Facebook Credit mould.
