A few days ago along with other companies announced the partnership with Google TV, and now we have seen Las Vegas had three external players with Google TV, a stunning TV with 21:9 format and a whole new range of 3D TVs. And if we continue with the TVs, 3D TV and Google, the absolute fashion show in Las Vegas this year.

Players with Google TV

Shortly following the footsteps of Sony, Vizio has two bluray players with Google TV and a separate streamer also based on this system from Google. Bluray players are the VBR370 and VBR430, and the streamer is VAP430 model.

The first to appear was the VAP430 streamer, which actually was yesterday, and is basically the same as the Sony tape drive, an heir to the Logitech Revue Google TV that picks up where this left off. A small box with HDMI output and WiFi connection which allows us to enjoy Honeycomb on our TV and all the benefits of Google TV, and of course Android Market for access to hundreds of applications.

But also today we learned that Vizio would not be standing there, hiding secrets about Google TV, and it is their Bluray players VBR370 and VBR430. Both offer a similar functionality to VAP430, but of course adding Bluray playback.

A very interesting range, especially with the streamer, which promise a lot and contribute much to the momentum of Google TV.

Vizio XVT TruLED Cinemawide 3D Smart TV

With a name so uncomplicated and simplistic been baptized a monster HDTV will be available in 50 “, 58″ and 71 “21:9 format them. This format is the one they call cinemawide, and is much more scenic than 16:9. I do not know if you’ve ever seen one live, but it’s amazing, really, the problem is that few things have adapted yet we waste a lot of floor space of seeing things in 16:9 screen or smaller formats.

In addition to its impressive technical features of 21:9, 3D, WiFi b / g / n, Bluetooth, contrast of 1,000,000:1 and 120Hz refresh this TV interface includes Vizio Internet Access, a kind of alternative to Google TV that allows access to popular applications so that our television beyond. Although frankly, as they were, could have Google TV.

Sincerely, a true pepinazo television sets to match the best of Samsung and LG, although not yet know nothing of the price or release date.

Hardcore gamers are willing to spend whatever it takes to make their gaming experience better. MMORPG advertising, when done correctly, will ensure that you get your portion of the billions of dollars that are spend on gaming each year. Gaining subscribers may be step one, but that is certainly not the end of the potential for profit if you offer expansions, paid upgrades, and sell in game characters and objects.

This gaming genre can be highly profitable not only because of the number of fans that it has, but also the number of options that it provides. In terms of marketing, publishers know how popular these games are, and will be willing to market them for you for a small percentage of the profit that comes from each sale. Yes, publishers are willing to do the marketing on your behalf, leaving you free to focus on other aspects of your business.

MMORPG advertising tends to bring high conversion rates, which makes this genre highly appealing to publishers. By using a game advertising network, you can connect your business to marketers who know what it takes to bring in sales. This is essentially like having your own sales force, and only paying them for performance. When you make money, the marketer that converted the sale or lead also makes money. This team effort can take your marketing to new heights.

The adoption by users of smartphones and tablets and mobile applications have led to this growth has changed the way we communicate. It’s very unusual to receive SMS and calls are becoming less frequent. This is largely because we in our devices and internet messaging clients such as practical and entertaining as Whats-app, to name one of the most widespread. And that does not please the operators, who see little by little they are wasting money.

That is why the GSMA, the body that regulates mobile communications, announced the creation of the RCS-e. A communications protocol that will allow “enriched” by the mobile operator, ie the Whats App of operadoras.El Enhanced Rich Communication Suite (RCS-e) was created in response to the phenomenon of popularization of mobile messaging applications like Whats App. A phenomenon that is bypassing the traditional communications such as calls and SMS. Operators have already tried to lower the rates, especially in SMS’s, but no color. Applications continue to offer more for less.

The RCS-protocol and lead beyond the traditional communication using voice only providing the possibility of transmitting multimedia too. In fact it is possible to make video calls, messaging, upload photos and can be done in real time. Even if we can share the phone with the person we talked things while keeping the conversation. You can also find on our agenda automatically with whom we can share things.

The idea is that this technology is included as standard on the terminal market operators. And later be integrated into the existing application form. Operators do not intend to charge special fee for this special service, at least for now. In fact Spain is going to be a pioneer in this technology as Telephonic, Vodafone and Orange already being tested.

The first TVs with this technology will go this summer, are currently only manufactured by one company (which has developed this technology), is called Rajan.
