On Monday Samsung Electronics America introduced three new tablets in the Galaxy Tab 3 family: the 7.0, the 8.0 and the 10.1 measuring 7 inches, 8 inches and 10.1 inches respectively. They will be made available here in the States beginning July 7 costing $199, $299 and $399, priced according to size, with pre-orders starting on Tuesday.

BlackBerry plans are relatively cheaper than other straight data plans mostly because of the way the service is designed. Often times, I get asked if it is possible to use the a BlackBerry service plan on other phones. The answer to that is yes and no…in the sense that it is possible in some instances and won’t work in others. Again, it depends on the way the service is configured by the network in question.
Right now, here in Nigeria, it is possible on two networks, so I will share how you can on both, however, you should note that the data access via this means may be as a result of oversight, if that is the case, it could be shutdown anytime.
To be eligible for this offer you must have subscribed to one of the above blackberry plans at least once. After the expiry (30 days) of the bundle you do the following:
Update: Seems the Glo plan doesn’t work any longer, MTN though now works as described below:
Most phones require you to restart before changes to the APN are effected so if it does not work as soon as you alter the APN, restart the phone.
You should also note that I haven’t personally tried any of these so I may not be able to comment on what the experience is like. I have seen them work though, so it legit works.

As we approach the rumored date for Android 4.3′s launch on June 20 (at least, that’s what our sources say), many have already come to the realization that we should not expect Google to introduce a new interface for the OS. It will still be called Jelly Bean and nothing too crazy will happen. What most in the business have their money on is that we can expect to see Google change up Android’s look in the iteration after next, being Android 5.0 “Key Lime Pie.” That’s when we will see some new colors, icons, wallpapers, etc. take place.
Graphic designers appear to be already creating their very own concepts for what they would like to see in Android 5.0, playing more with lockscreen widgets and revising the Android homescreen look. Artist Jinesh Shah took to his Google+ page recently to post up a few pictures of his own ideas, some of which we have become big fans of. While it comes off as minimal and clean, there is enough information on any given homescreen and the lockscreen to give off the sense that this concept would be highly functional and practical for users.
The lockscreen widget shows a comprehensive look at this user’s upcoming meeting, even showing a map preview of its location. Below that, we can see upcoming flight details, all of which would be able to be customized under new settings that would come with KLP. As for the homescreen changes, what sets this concept apart from others is the idea of “hidden” widgets. With swipes and other gestures, you could reveal other widgets that don’t necessarily have to be on your homescreen when not being used. It’s a fantastic concept, one that we probably wouldn’t mind seeing implemented.
Share your thoughts on the Android 5.0 concept below!
