It seems like a lot of big news sites are cropping up false headlines like, “Android hi-jacks plane” or “Android remotely attacks planes”.  Well, that’s somewhat true but let me just point out that researchers were just using Android as the platform to develop their hi-jacking apps because Android is “open source” and you can develop highly-sophisticated apps custom to any project while you cannot do that on iOS or most other mobile platforms.   This proves the versatility and flexibility of an open source platform and Android will keep becoming better for researchers and students to learn/develop real-world applications.

Thinking about buying a Galaxy Camera?  Well, I did get to try it for few hours last time I was at the Galaxy Store in South Korea.  It’s UGLY and doesn’t fit in your pocket.   They should have made the Galaxy Camera small enough to fit in your pocket otherwise there’s no advantage in carrying a giant digital camera when you can carry a DSLR instead.  I love Samsung products but Galaxy Camera is one of my least favorites, I would wait until they come up with a better, portable design.

 

Also, you can see my review of Neat Receipts Scanner from couple years back here.

And poll of the day, “are you getting a Galaxy S4 or HTC One”?
