Chromebook Pixel

The WiFi version ($1,299 U.S. and £1,049 U.K.) will start shipping next week and the LTE version ($1,449) will ship in the U.S. in April.

Yikes!

This Chromebook has the highest pixel density (239 pixels per inch) of any laptop screen on the market today. Packed with 4.3 million pixels, the display offers sharp text, vivid colors and extra-wide viewing angles. With a screen this rich and engaging, you want to reach out and touch it—so we added touch for a more immersive experience.

It’s noce to have the touchscreen, but I still can’t get over the price.

If you’re interested in a hands-on experience, you can visit select Best Buy (U.S.) and Currys PC World (U.K.) store locations.

I’ll check it out. Once again, $1,299 for a Chromebook?

It’s the Year of The Snake. All your iPhones, iPads, smartphones, computer, etc. are celebrating Chinese New Year. After all, they all were made/assembled in China.

Google Translate is really useful. I can fake that I know how to write in Chinese.

There’s no need to have Google+ just because you have a Gmail account.

Google Voice, Free calling within the US and Canada through 2013

The Gmail Team has confirmed that Google Voice will provide free calling within the US and Canada through 2013.

Many of you call phones from Gmail to easily connect with friends and family. If you’re in the US and Canada, you’ll continue to be able to make free domestic calls through 2013. Plus, in most countries, you can still call the rest of the world from Gmail at insanely low rates.

We here rely on Google Voice for our day to day operation and we are glas that Google is providing this service for free*. For that we thank Google.

* We are aware that Google is monetizing the free service in one way or another.
