There are two potential winners in South Korea’s recent announcement that they would be moving to a completely-digital curriculum model by 2015: students in the Asian country should win and the country’s homegrown tablet-maker Samsung is likely to win as well. The government has committed to spend $2.4 billion to buy the equipment and digitize all of the material. They intend to roll it out to elementary schools by 2014 and across the entire education system the following year. While there was no mention of Samsung, it is highly unlikely that the contract would go to any other company outside…

With Apple in the process of suing Samsung for stealing the design used for iPhone and iPad, some interesting images have surfaced on the Internet that may reverse the claim: It just goes to show that if you’re going to go after someone, you should be sure that they don’t have a counter-claim against you….

Apple is suing Samsung for allegedly infringing on some of Apple’s patents — you know, that whole iPhone idea? — and Samsung, in response, is threatening litigation of its own, stating that Apple is allegedly infringing on some of Samsung’s wireless technology patents. This sounds typical, but this one is different. From the outside looking in, it might be acceptable to call Apple and Samsung close partners in the tech industry. Apple has purchased $5.7 billion worth of electronic parts from Samsung in 2010. That is a serious investment that can’t be overlooked. Both companies seemingly…

The mobile phone and tablet markets are ripe battlegrounds for Android-based gadgets to make their mark. Apple is the leader but not by a huge margin. Some predict that Android will explode in 2011. There is little doubt that Apple has its hands full trying to maintain its dominance in these areas, but at least they have the app-driven, WiFi-connected MP3 player market locked down with the iPod touch, right? Maybe not. We’ll find out more after CES. It is hard to imagine that the niche that lies somewhere between iPod and iPhone could have room for more players, but that’s exactly what Samsung is banking…

Hold on a second while I plug something I like. That thing is Samsung’s mastery of all things display-related. I may run a Mac Pro, but hell if I’m buying an Apple display. It’s all about the Samsung. This year at, FPD 2010, Samsung absolutely did not fail to bring the rock in showcasing all kinds of neat stuff, as evidenced by this video from Netbooknews. Check it out – we’ve got transparent displays, flexible displays, an unbreakable, ridiculously thin display, and perhaps most impressively, a goddamn folding display. I’d like to say the future is now, but the sad fact is that we likely won’t see any…

Are you thinking about purchasing a new HD television? You could, but you might regret it, especially after you read this. Samsung has apparently developed a new 70-inch 3D-enabled television. But what makes this television so special is that it is twice the resolution of the standard 1080p television available today. So just how well can real life be portrayed on Samsung’s 70-inch television? Well, start off with an 3840 x 2160 resolution and a 240Hz or 480Hz refresh rate (for newer models). They are calling it “Ultra Definition.” Considering that I’m sitting in front of a 60-inch Samsung LCD…

This is how it works. The parent tells the kid “you must be home every day by 9pm.” The kid then says “Yes, mom.” The kid will proceed to come home at the designated time. Then he will do what all kids do. Wait until the coast is clear and sneak the hell out of there. Kids need freedom and parents don’t want to give it away. It seems Samsung is siding with the parents. They’re giving them access to a system (By GTX Corp) that scares me. In layman terms, your parents will be able to track every move you make via GPS. If you take your cellphone with you, they know where you are. Kind of like Foursquare on steroids….

OLED Screens have proven not to be the best type of screens to try and make transparent due to backlighting issues, but Samsung may have beat this with some cleverly hidden backlighting at the SID International Symposium. The company emphasized the transparency of their 46″ LCD Display panel by placing wine bottles behind it. Visitors were encouraged to touch the display to show information about that particular bottle of wine. The display uses the ambient light, and if it’s too dark the display will automatically switch its light source over to use LEDs located around the border of the LCD….

Ever heard of StreamTV? Neither have I. But apparently, unbeknown to you, I, or the rest of the Internet, they’re the leaders in 3DTV technology. Right now on Amazon, you can pre-order StreamTV’s two offerings (though I only suggest pre-ordering one of them… they’re pretty wallet-killing). The first, ‘Stream TV 37-Inch 3D TV with Super BluRay Player, Black’, is four thousand dollars, and touts the following: 37-Inch 3D TV viewing without glasses. Builtin browser, Entertainment Portal, Video conferencing, over 500 FREE Live TV Channels, Download and Stream, 500 GB HDD, 3D Gaming, Software…

Doctors all over the world will soon be treating less wrist injuries. Samsung has released its ultra compact SMX-C20UN camcorder that features at 25-degree active angle lens. The idea behind this feature is to allow owners to have a more comfortable hand position while recording. This means that you will be able to hold your video camera longer on your family vacations, which also means longer boring videos to show at a family get together. For those of you who are clueless with computer video editing, the Samsung SMX-C20UN features a built in video editing device to get rid of all those times Mom…
