T-Mobile G2X may see release April 15, and the G-Slate (at $529) coming 'soon'

T-Mobile G2X launch date

Just got slipped the screen you see above, and it looks like we may see the T-Mobile G2X (that's the LG Optimus 2X for those of you playing at home) as soon as April 15. That's a tad sooner than the April 20 date that's been floating around. But the sooner we get that hot little dual-core Tegra 2 phone in our hands, the better.

Oh, and there's the T-Mobile G-Slate (aka the LG Optimus Tab) mentioned as well, priced at $529 on contract and rebate. Its release is listed as being "soon."

And do note that release dates absolutely are subject to change, but it does seem that we're getting close, boys and girls. Thanks, anon!

Google Voice Search learns Latin American Spanish, Indonesian, and Malaysian

google voice search
Google Voice Search has just introduced localizations for Latin America, Indonesia and Malaysia, enabling native language search for hundreds of millions of users.

Google's official blog post offers some interesting insights into the process of collecting and analyzing the speech data needed to expand support. Thousands of hours were spent gathering voice samples and choosing key regional accents to analyze, and International Program Manager Linne Ha is clearly very appreciative of the Google users who helped the company complete the expansion. Without an enthusiastic base of users to lend a hand, Google Voice Search's polyglot powers would have been nearly impossible to deliver.

Grand Jury Probe May Deter Smartphone App Privacy Abuses

A federal grand jury has subpoenaed Pandora to produce documents in what could be an industry-wide investigation of smartphone apps. In an SEC filing, Pandora said the subpoena was served early 2011, and it was told it wasn't a specific target of the probe. However, it believes similar subpoenas have been issued to publishers of other smartphone apps.

Cassette Mate Converts Useless Mix Tapes Into Useful MP3s

Got some old cassette tapes lying around? I thought not. But keep reading anyway, as Thanko’s Cassette Mate is quite a curiosity, in a retro-useless kind of way. Looking like a Walkman that has been left on a beach and polished to a pebble-shape by the merciless attrition of sea and sand, the Cassette Mate is [...]

Considering the expense, precision and difficulty of manufacturing computer chips, you would think the engineers designing them are pretty serious people. But it’s not all business inside a chip fab, as these microscope photos reveal. In fact, the designers of microchips frequently hide tiny cartoons, drawings and even messages alongside the super-tiny circuits and semiconductors they [...]
