Playbook Headlines
Research in Motion releases an update to the Blackberry Playbook - almost a year later than first promised.
 Built-in email and new apps are now available to BlackBerry PlayBook users, with the release of a long-awaited operating system upgrade.
 Research in Motion Ltd. said its PlayBook tablet computer outsold Apple's iPad last week at a number of Canadian retailers.
 While tech experts and analysts are impressed with Research In Motion's long-awaited update to its PlayBook tablet, many aren't optimistic it will be enough to prop up the troubled BlackBerry-maker, which has been hard hit by outages, product delays and a plummeting stock price.
The real fun of taking pictures these days lies in what can be done with photos after they've been snapped. Hipstamatic and Instagram are among the popular apps that provide on-the-fly effects for photos taken on smart phones, and offer some very cool results.
Samsung's answer to this craze of gussying up photos post-click is the new MultiView MV800, a compact, digital point-and-shoot camera. It's a decent choice for anyone in the market for an actual camera. But it's even more fun for those of you who love playing with your photos.
The MultiView comes preloaded with a variety of effects and filters that can be applied to the shots. The best part is how simple and easy they are to use. The camera's touchscreen menu takes a page from Apple's playbook and uses an app-centric interface that's easy to navigate.
Even bad photos can be salvaged when filters are applied. Take that so-so picture of your kids. With a few taps, convert it into a cartoon.
Voila! Your little ones...
