HTC One X might be the HTC EndeavorThe HTC Endeavor might be suffering from a bad case of multiple personalities at this moment in time – after all, it was also known as the HTC Edge as well as the HTC Supreme in certain circles. Well, you can add another moniker to the list this time around, where fresh rumors claim that this smartphone will debut at Mobile World Congress 2012 as the HTC One X. The Danish htc-one-x.dk URL has already been registered by an HTC subcontractor, sparking such speculations in the process. This would definitely be a refreshing change in HTC’s naming convention of their smartphones, but it might be just the catalyst they need to become attractive in the eyes of the public.

Tesco offers unlimited broadband for £2.50 per monthTesco has jumped aboard the unlimited broadband bandwagon with an introductory price of just £2.50 each month – that amounts to slightly less than 9p a day, but this offer is not available to any Tom, Dick or Harry, but rather, it will only be made available to Clubcard loyalty scheme customers. At point of publishing, Tesco has approximately 16 million Clubcard users who can take advantage of this unlimited broadband service. You will need to top up the £2.50 with a £13.75 monthly line rental though, where you will also benefit from free evening and weekend calls. Apart from that, those who sign up for their broadband package will also receive three times the amount of Clubcard points for every £1 spent.

16 GB White Galaxy Nexus headed to Verizon?Good things come to those who wait, and if you’ve been holding out from picking up the Samsung Galaxy Nexus, you’re in luck. A white version is on its way to the US according to Droid-Life’s sources. Apparently the phone will be coming to Verizon in the very near future; unfortunately it will only be available as a 16GB phone – which corroborates with previous reports about the 32GB model being discontinued.

No word on an official release date, but the phone is likely to cost $199 with a 2-year contract – similar to what Verizon is doing with the Motorola DROID RAZR. Hopefully by the time the phone drops (if it does), it hasn’t been outdated by all the quad-core phones that will be arriving later this year. Anybody plans to pick up the white Galaxy Nexus?

 Tic Tac augmented reality billboardThe world of augmented reality (AR) has expanded even further, where more and more mobile devices are now capable to let one experience AR wherever they are. Tic Tac knows this, and wants to leverage on AR by rolling out a range of interactive advertising and mobile experiences in its latest marketing campaign known as “Shake It Up.” This marketing campaign will rely on various media channels such as TV, print, and mobile ads, where Tic Tac highlights odd facts which surround daily routine activities, while encouraging ordinary folk like you and I to perform things differently. Take for example, Tic Tac’s claim that “eighty-four percent of people always sleep on the same side of the bed.” When you use the Tic Tac Viewr mobile application, you will then be able to indulge in a little game that lets you roll a man from one side of the bed to the other, avoiding falling objects at the same time. Seems like a modern day Game & Watch variant from Nintendo, no?

3D printed glasses are the bomb at Fashion WeekFashion is really subjective, considering this appeals to our artistic faculties more than the reasoning segment of our brains. I know that fashion can seem strange to some at times, but the most sought after accessory on the runway at Fashion Week is not a dress, some bangles or a hat, but rather, it hails from MakerBot – coming in the form of 3D printed glasses. Designer Asher Levine’s fashion show saw models don multicolored glasses that were fabricated in a MakerBot printer.

Galaxy Note 10.1 at MWC (Rumor)Now here is a rumor that you might want to take not with a grain of salt, but rather, an entire teaspoonful. Just when you thought that the Samsung Galaxy Note is practically too huge to pass off as a decent sized smartphone, here comes a rumor that positively makes the Galaxy Note feel svelte, like a supermodel in her heyday. After all, word on the street has it that Mobile World Congress 2012 in Barcelona will be the platform where Samsung announces their latest Galaxy Note model – the Galaxy Note 10.1. Yes sir, with being nearly double the size, talking into this is not only going to be quite the challenge, you would look really, really weird. Don’t believe me? How about holding your iPad 2 to your ear like a phone?

Moller unveils new SkycarsHave you ever wondered what would happen to cars of the future – will they still move around on four wheels, or can they take to the skies? Moller International thinks that the latter has a very bright future, unveiling a couple of Skycars that are obviously lightweight and might require just a Sport Pilot license for one to drive – nay, fly it around. I admit, having Skycars zipping about in the air without any proper traffic lanes scare the heck out of me, considering how some folks already drive like maniacs while the are on terra firma. More on the Skycars from Moller International right after the jump.

Samsung might sell off LCD businessWhen it comes to HDTVs, surely Samsung must rank in your mind amongst the other big name brands. Well, even the South Korean manufacturing giant is finding it to be tough going these days, mulling over the sale of its LCD unit amidst a dip in demand. Samsung is not the only one in this boat though, as other electronics manufacturers around the world are also realizing that their LCD businesses are seeing an unprecedented dip. Apart from slowing sales figures that dropped more than 10% last year, the prices of LCD panels have also succumbed to lower than before levels, denting profits in the process.
