Voice recognition has always been a problem for many folks. Say what you may, but they’re not a very intelligent system and there’s just no effective method to fix it because there’s too many languages on Earth. Even a simple word like ‘Asus’ has dozens of pronunciations. But it seemed that the American blue oval automotive company is determined not to be shaken by such small issue. They’ve now prepared their SYNC program, which is an infotainment system in Ford vehicles with voice recognition features, to understand an additional 16 languages besides American English. It seemed the total of language that the program now understands are at 19. Emergency assistance has also been expanded to cover other languages.

And you think Motorola, Samsung, and LG are the only ones coming up with Tegra 2 Android tablets? No. Apparently even the Taiwanese electronic giants are gearing up for Tegra 2 tablets. Gigabyte has unveiled the new Gigabyte GN-TB100 Android tablet at CeBIT 2011. The gadget features an Nvidia Tegra 2 processor, a 10.1-inch IPS display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels.

Specifications are quite similar with other Tegra 2 tablets entering the market, like 1GB of Ram and up to 32GB of internal storage, besides WiFi-N, Bluetooth, and HDMI-out. Of course, let’s not forget about the 5-Megapixel camera at the back which is very much capable of 720p video recording, and a 1.3-Megapixel front-facing camera for video calls. Sadly though, this Tegra 2 tablet by Gigabyte is not coming with Honeycomb (Android 3.0), but instead only Froyo (Android 2.2).

The Gigabyte GN-TB100 Tegra 2 Android tablet will be launched in July 2011, and there’s no mention when it’ll receive update to Honeycomb. Now that’s not very attractive. In this era where everyone’s copying everyone with Tegra 2 tablets and Honeycomb OS, there’s no way such spec can stand out among the crowd.

Previously it’s black, and now it’s available in blue too. Just like how their Dominator lineup works, Corsair has today announced the availability of a new blue version of their highly-acclaimed Vengeance family of DDR3 memory modules, just shortly after this new lineup was launched end of last year.

The Corsair Cerulean Blue Vengeance DDR3 RAM is elevated for overclocking and compatibility, at an attractive price point, much like the black Vengeance, whereas the Dominator lineup is directed more towards hardcore enthusiasts with insane speed. The device has Cerulean Blue anodized heat spreaders that ironically make up a good color theme setup with the latest 2nd generation Intel Core processor family (Sandy Bridge) motherboards from ASUS, MSI, and Gigabyte. The striking blue color is shared with Corsair Gaming Series power supplies, allowing users to maintain a consistent color scheme throughout their system. The Corsair Cerulean Blue Vengeance DDR3 memory is available in 4GB, 8GB and 16GB models.

March 11 is getting nearer day by day, but iOS 4.3 has even turned gold yet- wait, scratch that, it did. Apple has just released the golden master version of iOS 4.3 for developers, and it’s seeding it right now. If you’re an iOS developer, than it’s time to take out your gifted coding skills, and fool around with the new AirPlay and Personal Hotspot capabilities. Sadly though, there’s no update for AppleTV just yet.

After much criticism due to the bricking hiccups, Microsoft appears to have solved its Windows Phone 7 software update nightmare. An update that wasn’t actually supposed to do anything but prepare that first wave of WP7 devices for their first real update but, ironically, left about 10 percent of WP7 owners with issues including some bricked Samsung handsets. Yesterday Microsoft issued an update on the matter saying that the February update for Samsung handsets has been fixed, resuming its rolling release schedule. Hopefully the next update, which is supposed to be the ‘real’ update, will be trouble-free as we look forward to updates for copy ‘n paste, and also to multitasking, Twitter integration, and a vastly improved IE9 browser later in the year.

When it comes to sales statistics, Sony’s solid numbers are usually referring to “shipped” figures, not actual sales and activation. However, Sony has gone the extra mile this time at GDC and revealed the staggering sales figure of the company’s popular game console: 41 million Sony PlayStation 3 sold worldwide thus far.

That’s the number of PS3 consoles the company says it has sold worldwide, and over 80 percent are actually connected to the Internet. Yes, the PS3 has been around for quite some time, but then again if we look at the numbers, they do look abit awkward. Last year Sony claimed that the PlayStation store saw a 60 percent boost in traffic and a 70 percent boost in revenue from a total of 70 million PSN accounts. This means that the PS3 accounts for 58 percent of the PSN accounts worldwide.

Well, yesterday Autocar reported that Gayu Eusegi, head of global product development for Mitsubishi, stated that the Lancer Evolution X will be the last Evo from Dr. Evo and the Japanese automaker, and that Mitsubishi is in the move to shift gear into a more EV or Hybrid oriented stable, due to emission issue and the automotive world’s trend to go EV technology.

However, Mitsubishi has decided to address these claims by way of a post on its Facebook page.
