[Review] Samsung Galaxy Note (GT-N7000)

White Samsung Galaxy Note (N7000)
Hello everyone, today we have the beautiful white Samsung Galaxy Note to review. I have been using this device for about a month now, and from the start it has not felt like a very large phone/tablet (phablet) to me, although I have dropped it twice on hard concrete -Ouch! (It has a small dent in the bezel) because of the device falling out of my track-pants pockets. Hehe. But the phone does fit into my pocket without any issues from sitting down etc. The white headphones included was a very good set. I really enjoyed them as they had a silicon-feature that acts as 'noise-cancelling' headphones. Guess what happened to them? I broke them while trying to sit down on the bus! As most of you would say, that is very clumsy!

[News] Google unveils 3D cities in Google Earth




Google has announced another new feature - 3D cityscapes in Google Earth. This announcement was made on June 6, 2012. It comes right before Apple's most famous event - WWDC (World Wide Developers Conference). This announcement will be seen as a pre-emptive strike against Apple's event coming up this week, one of the things which is expected to announce that it is ditching Google Maps in favor of its own mapping system and services in its upcoming iOS 6 software.

As most of you already know, Apple's WWDC 2012 event is coming up this week. At NZ TechBlog, we will be summarising the new gadgets and software showcased at WWDC, and will be posting to you about it at the end of each day for the 5 days.

[News] Dropbox confirms Galaxy S3 won't include 50GB storage on AT&T and Verizon

Dropbox has informed us that not all carriers in the US are offering the deal of 50GB storage with the Galaxy S3, with AT&T and Verizon being amongst one of them. This has been confirmed on Dropbox's support pages. Lucky for us folks here in New Zealand, Samsung and Dropbox will be offering 50GB of free online storage for purchasers of the Galaxy S3. The offer will last for 2 years.

If you are a customer in the US who was hoping for the free storage from Dropbox, or that was one of the reasons that swung the pendulum in your favour, drop us a line down below to share your disappointment!
