2013-02-21
ubuntu touch Developer Preview is out but not really it seems LT announces the f-series to be showcased at mwc and a successful petition is ready for the White House regarding carry on blocks I'm hi meri behna and how dare you make carrier unlock see legal this is pocket now daily so yeah LG went ahead and took the wraps off their new f-series but buyers beware if you were expecting our high-end smartphone don't look at the f-series apparently these devices are the new f-series to supersede the L Series in the past which wasn't really that hot you probably want to look at the optimus g pro or any other devices that are out there but sadly well we'll keep you posted the devices will be available at the mwc show floor michael and anton are already there so expect kansans very soon and speaking of mwc samsung seems to be planning to showcase a new TV discovery service for mobile devices where if you obviously have a samsung phone and a samsung TV you can pretty much watch TV ala carte and selected on your device now sadly it's kind of interesting that they're leaving this room WC since CES was more of a show floor for that but stay tuned obviously and Tom and Michael will have a look at that and yes Google Drive just got better those of you that notice that there's an application update available already will know that you get video streaming now aside from that you also get pinch to zoom on the presentations now it still isn't the spreadsheet solution that I wish it was but at least it's getting better over and over again on mobile devices so make sure you hit the update doesn't hurt to have it and then let's move on to a bun to just reach developers on their new preview for Nexus devices which is cool right well sadly no if you're piling on loading ubuntu to your Nexus device make sure it's not your daily driver as for example the first thing is data does not work if you want data on your device you're pretty much stuck on Wi-Fi on the original developer preview and aside from that Nexus 4 users are complaining about the fact that they've had to take apart their phone remove the battery which is not removable and then set it back because of the vice hangs and there's just no way to fix that so way to go boom two we've got a lot of coverage coming up on everything so if I were you I would stay tuned for Taylor's videos just have a look at the device have a look at how it works and make sure it's right for you before you load it and finally for the yes news of the day the petition for the White House regarding carrier and locks is ready you know that there's a goal it has to be reached in order for the petition to even be read by the White House and that number has already been met before the date that was set which was februari 23rd now this obviously does not guarantee that carrier locks will be legal for any device that was built after January 26 but stay tuned obviously this is a step in the right direction but that leads you to the question of the day how much do you rely on carrier unlocks in my particular case every single device that I have a known required an unlock at some point so leave us a comment down below do you need it I do and if you want an earlier scoop of everything that's happening in the smartphone and tablet world make sure you follow us on pocketnow comment subscribe to our youtube channel as well let's give this video a thumbs up if you liked what you saw I'm hi Natalie later thanks for watching and stay tuned we've got a ton of a blue to coverage coming up
