BlackBerry Messenger for Android

CEO BlacBerry Thorsten Heins mengumumkan, BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) sebentar lagi tersedia di perangkat Android dan iOS. Messaging app ini akan diluncurkan secara global musim panas ini.

"Ini bentuk kepercayaan diri," kata Heins dalam acara BlackBerry Live di Orlando, Amerika Serikat, Selasa 14 Mei 2013. "Platform BB10 sangat kuat dan respons terhadapnya baik sehingga ini waktunya bagi BBM untuk menjadi platform mobil messaging mandiri."

App ini akan digratiskan di Android dan iOS. Seperti messaging app lainnya, BBM akan menjadi aplikasi berdiri sendiri. Menurut TechCrunch, BBM akan tersedia di iOS 6 atau Android yang menggunakan OS Ice Cream Sandwich.

Awalnya, hanya fitur pesan dan grup yang akan tersedia. Namun Heins menjanjikan, selebihnya segera menyusul seperti fitur screen sharing, BBM Voice dan fitur yang baru diluncurkan, BBM Channels.

Lenovo ThinkPad W700ds

If one huge, high-resolution display on a notebook is good, two must be better, right? That’s exactly what Lenovo’s design team is banking on with the new Lenovo ThinkPad W700ds.

The W700ds isn’t a replacement or a refresh of the original, but rather, an optional upgrade to the same basic platform that makes good on Lenovo’s long-rumored promise to launch a notebook with dual displays.
