Is it likely that the devs that port android to the Touchpad will port Beats® audio too??
Devices:
Motorola ATRIX 4G @1.0ghz
16GB HP Touchpad @1.7ghz
Get between me and my devices and I will maul you like a rabid wolverine... Love Riley
Between DSP manager and Poweramp you can create better sound than the beats audio is capable of. Beats audio is a gimmick and this is coming from a guy with an Envy 14 laptop.

This. Considering the Touchpad has a Wolfson WM8958 chip, I'd much rather see Supercurio get Voodoo Control/Voodoo Sound working.

I think beats Audio is a hardware specification to stop headphone buzzing and to ensure there is no interference. It may also have a software based ESP to 'enhance' the audio, which is possible, but not the hardware side.
All I know is that when you make a tablet 12 months after you figure out "Control Talk" and STILL leave the features out of the tablet, But include some crap "beats" logo because you upped the base (because some multiple bullet wound retard said to) I get MAD...
Id take working headset volume controls over a DSP any day...

This is what I'm hoping for. Voodoo control is amazing and I love it. And yea I have to agree, the beats branding is a joke, (also coming from a person with an envy and two other laptops with "Beats" branding). In the laptops all they do is reskin the realtek sound application. But on the tab I believe that it might bring some minor optimizations, and for the people saying bass... Well there is such a thing as too much bass, but with voodoo control, you will be able to control the bass level to your hearts content, its flippin awesome. So hope for voodoo control!

It basically looks like the Webtop Lapdock, but with chrome accents, and can connect to a number of high end Moto devices, such as the newly announced Atrix 2 and also our Photon, via what appears to be a dongle. Launches exclusively on AT&T on Oct. 13th followed by launches at other locations (Sprint?) later this month. No price yet.
Anyone interested? This guy is.

That's great news!
Webtop is quite slow, not productive enough. I always wonder whether moto is going to seriously speed it up.

From a hardware standpoint, webtop performs ok when compared to an equivalent netbook. Not too long ago those single core Atom netbooks could barely play youtube vids. The eyecandy is it main hindrance and the patch work coding doesn't help.
I've already discussed possible improvements with moto and there response was pretty much "webtop's awesome, everybody loves it, the hardware can't support a real desktop enviroment and who would want that anyway." My rebuttal was to show them my Photon running, at that time, a prerelease of Ubuntop using the lapdock. "We don't get it." was what I got in return at which point I walked away.
I have a single core 1.6 intel atom netbook and im sure my photons hardware blows it out the water lol. I need a full fedora distro on this thing = perfect phone
That's pretty legit. I might actually ponder getting one if I don't get a tablet instead.

You know what, I had an Asus TF. Great device, great support. I traded it and went back to my NC running CM7 via Phirenook. 7 is such a good form factor, I slide it into my binder and have my text/web resources at my fingertips, right beside my notes. I have magazines on there and books, and with that screen...things are easy to read.
That being said, I'm hoping a 7" model of Xoom 2 is announced and or the Galaxy Tab 7 is price appropriate, because there is something incredibly utilitarian about a tablet the size of a paperback. My $.02.
Edit: Locks like the Lapdock is going to run $249. Hmmmm.

Here's what I've found so far for the specs...
4G LTE capability
Five-row QWERTY keyboard
4-inch Samsung Super AMOLED display
Android 2.3 (Gingerbread)
1GHz Cortex A8 Hummingbird processor
1.3-megapixel (front) camera
5-megapixel (rear) camera
Mobile hotspot capability
AllShare
Samsung Media Hub
Bluetooth 3.0
DivX and XviD support
Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n
Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
Support for Cisco AnyConnect 2.1 SSL VPN
Encryption Services
Support for Sybase Afaria
So it looks like its' CPU is comparable to the Fascinate, in fact it looks like the only major differences are 4G, a slide out QWERTY keyboard, and Gingerbread built-in.
I gotta say that I'm tempted to get this. I kinda wish it had a Dual-core CPU and Tegra GPU, but I just might pull the trigger anyway. Any news on if this phone will take current Fascinate ROMs with modification?
I'd LOVE to throw CM7 on this sucker...
Yay..... the epic comes to verizon a year later....

Strange deals between Samsung and VZW !
Edit: wait a minute... that means and official Gb release from VZW easily ported to the fassy.

Why would you want this when the Nexus Prime is just a ways reach away?
This phone is pretty sub-par to what is newly released.. this will probably be the phone for the average user who wants 4G.
Well, I'm looking at it for my wife. Who sends about 700 text messages a month. She WILL NOT USE AN ON SCREEN KEYBOARD. If you're not married, then you won't understand why you can't try to enlighten your wife.
Sadly, although it should work the same as a Charge, the demo unit at Verizon didn't scroll or pinch-zoom without the page bouncing around, and I suspect it was some Verizon demo mode that was completely hosing it, and no way I could find to turn that mode off, and while the salesmen/women tried to help, they were just as ignorant as me.
I came here looking to find out if there were any problems. Instead there's just 'tude.
BTW, I think I'm getting the Galaxy Nexus for myself.
I had the stratosphere for 3 days and took it back. Keys on keyboard were to small, the bloatware was unbelievable, the battery life sucked, and everytime I tried to open the keyboard the damn thing nearly flew out of my hand. It was bad enough I opted for another fascinate, a refurb no less. That was my experience.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
So far two days into owning the Stratosphere and loving it. After getting the root applied to the phone and removing some of the bloat the phone is really running well. If you desire an QWERTY keyboard with 4G LTE on Verizon this is not a bad option. Yes its not as powerful as the upcoming devices coming out I'll be completely honest but on its own its pretty solid so far for me.
24-Hours in...
Picked up this phone yesterday. Got it from Radio Shack for FREE with a 2-year contract renewal.
So far I am really liking it. Upgraded from an HTC Droid Eris. BIG difference!
I also wish it had a dual-core processor, but this is a great phone for free. Looks like Target and Best Buy are now offering this phone for free too.
Now just need to be able to root and flash to ICS.
So this is off topic, but its something to keep us discussing

I'd buy it also. If there is tons of support this console will be a beast.
Don't forget about emulators. Think of the possibilities this can have. Having all the apps like, Pandora, netflix and other apps just like the other gaming devices to stream media go on social media.
Sounds like an exciting project. Hope it pulls through.

I feel the RAM needs to be amped up more. Other than that, I would buy it. Heck you can connect a Wii remote or PS3 controller to the thing not just a phone with virtual gamepad. Great for media stuff as well like Youtube.
For some reason LG has failed to advertise the LG G pad , The ui is identical to the G2 and you can use the qpair app to pair them together, I can even send text messages through my phone. The tablet is basically an 8.3 inch g2 with an expandable micro sd slot , dual speakers and the same beautiful screen as the G2. I just bought mine today and It is great. I came across it here on xda tonight and went to best buy and bought it. I am hoping that some of our awsome devs here will look into picking up one of these bad boys.

I'm about to buy a tablet and Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.4 Pro is surely the better choise at its price than the gpad 8.3, specswise. On the other hand the qpair funcionality is way too cool to pass unnoticed. I searched but didn't find anything relevant, is there a similar app to qpair than can do the same job, at least to a certain extent? I mean direct communication between the devices, not syncing through 3rd party services like dropbox for photos or pushbullet for notifications.
How long did it take you to find a thread that's been dead for almost a year? Lol
Maybe he types really slowly? Best we don't judge the poor guy. I'll check back next year for a reply.
Funny. I looked for something relevant to avoid starting a new one. So any other good jokes? c'mon now that we started don't let it die again..

Technically, the S23 Ultra ships with Bluetooth 5.3, so it's just about Samsung's decision, which hasn't been heard of on this topic.
As we were talking about a few days ago on an other topic, Samsung could also decide to push its proprietary codec too, so let's see how things evolve from here. At least, it can happen.

Yeah, I figured it would help to have it on the topic just after writing my comment and you answered too fast.
But I think it will also be bound to the audio peripherals manufacturers will to propagate its use across the devices.
Let's say you have Sony, JBL, Anker and a few others pushing the codec onto their devices, I'm sure more manufacturers will adopt it with time. But in term of power efficiency and audio fidelity balance, that's quite an interesting codec.
Edit: just found that article online, well, maybe it won't be as interesting as what is advertised.
Don't believe the hype: Bluetooth LE and the LC3 codec won't improve audio quality
Announcements regarding Bluetooth LE and the new LC3 audio codec need to be treated with caution
www.whathifi.com
In Google Pixel 7 Pro, there are LE Audio Option, however, it need to be opened under development mode.
