<p>Welcome back to our <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/15/slcd-equipped-htc-desire-coming-soon-to-telus/">&#8220;worst kept secrets&#8221;</a> hour, where HTC has seen fit to release a PR blast informing the world  of what it already knew: the Desire and Nexus One are getting Super  (duper) LCD displays to fill demand that <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/25/htc-running-low-on-amoled-stock-will-add-slcd-to-the-mix-for-so/">Samsung&#8217;s AMOLED division cannot</a>. Interestingly, HTC&#8217;s statement says nothing of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/all/droid+incredible">Droid Incredible</a>,  a close sibling to these 3.7-inch devices, but the global Nexus One and  Desire are getting hooked up &#8220;later this summer.&#8221; CEO Peter Chou has  also helpfully explained that the visual experience on the new SLCD  screens is &#8220;comparable&#8221; to AMOLED, but offers <em>better</em> battery performance. Color us curious to see and hear more.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s getting to the point where it&#8217;s not terribly easy to keep track of all the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/infotainment">in-car entertainment initiatives</a> our wondrous connected future has in store, but here&#8217;s two names you&#8217;ll  want to remember: GENIVI and MeeGo. The former is an industry alliance  that now includes automakers GM, BMW, Hyundai and Peugeot Citroen  alongside the likes of ARM, NVIDIA, Nokia and Intel, and <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/MeeGo/">MeeGo</a> is the Linux-based OS that they&#8217;ve just decided will soon be powering  our cars. Don&#8217;t expect this to affect your daily drive anytime soon, but  in the long run we wouldn&#8217;t be surprised to hear that the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/15/meego-nokia-and-intel-merge-maemo-and-moblin/">Moblin-Maemo base</a> underpins future revisions of <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/TerminalMode/">Terminal Mode</a> and <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/OnStar/">OnStar</a>.</p>

<p>Acer&#8217;s Android-powered Stream phone already <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/acer-android-powered-stream-gets-official-gets-handled-lives-u/">got official</a> way back in May &#8212; and we <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/02/acer-stream-preview-at-computex-2010/">got our hands on it</a> at Computex in June &#8212; but the company has only just now confirmed a  launch date. According to Acer, the Stream will be rolling out on August  9th, and it&#8217;ll be exclusive to UK-based online retailer <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/expansys">Expansys</a>,  at least initially. As for the phone itself, you can expect a 1GHz  Snapdragon processor, a 3.7-inch AMOLED screen, Android 2.1 for an OS, a  5-megapixel camera with 720p video recording (no flash, though), an  HDMI out port, and full DLNA / UPnP  support for media streaming (hence the name). Of course, being  exclusive to Expansys also means you won&#8217;t be getting a subsidized price  &#8212; look for this one to set you back £399, or just over $600. Full  press release is after the break.</p>
<p><strong>Update</strong>: And it looks like we&#8217;ve got our <a href="http://android.hdblog.it/2010/07/26/acer-stream-unboxing-primo-avvio-e-confronto-dimensioni/">first unboxing</a> with the final retail packaging. Video&#8217;s after the break.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s long been the case that if you wanted a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/all/htc">HTC handset</a> over in the world&#8217;s most populous nation, you&#8217;d have had to look for its rebadged variant under the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/all/dopod">Dopod</a> brand. But, as of today, that is no more. The prolific Taiwanese phone  maker has decided that its name is now recognizable and valuable enough  in China to be put on its own hardware and is kicking off a campaign  with four own-branded phones. The <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/28/htc-wildfire-review/">Wildfire</a> and <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/htc-desire-review/">Desire</a> we&#8217;re all familiar with already, while the Tianxi looks like a mildly  tweaked HD2 and the Tianyi is a mix-and-match of design elements from  the rest of HTC&#8217;s portfolio. The company&#8217;s also announcing a partnership  with China Mobile to bring these puppies to market, so it&#8217;s looking  like smooth sailing ahead. Full PR after the break.﻿</p>

<div>So it&#8217;s real, and&#8230; it&#8217;s a trackpad. What seemed like it might have been <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/apples-magic-trackpad-revealed/">pure rumor and some good Photoshopping</a> just a short while ago has magically (ha ha!) transformed into reality.  If you&#8217;re wondering what the Magic Trackpad is like to use &#8212; get ready  for a shock. It feels just like using a slightly larger version of a  MacBook or MacBook Pro pad. And we mean exactly, right down to the  multitouch gestures and whole-pad click. Yes, it clicks. There&#8217;s also a  new gesture, if you&#8217;re keeping track &#8212; a three-finger move that lets  you drag windows around (very helpful), though you give up the  functionality of being to navigate stuff like iPhoto galleries with a  swipe (it&#8217;s an option you can toggle in preferences &#8212; you have a  choice). We&#8217;re going to be doing some serious testing with the new  peripheral, but for now, feast your eyes on the pics below.</div>

<p>And just like that, the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/g1">T-Mobile G1</a> is no more. A quick stock check at T-Mobile USA, Amazon, and a few  other retailers confirms that the world&#8217;s first Android handset is no  longer for sale, marking the end of an era. Of course, it&#8217;s been nearly  two years since we first saw the G1, and its 528MHz Qualcomm processor  and 320 x 480 3.2-inch display have been long since outclassed by the  recent crop of high-end Android hardware, but we&#8217;re still feeling a  little nostalgic. They grow up so fast, don&#8217;t they? Take a pause, take a  sip, and let&#8217;s look back on the original of the species.</p>

<p>We&#8217;ve seen <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/sharp%2Ce-dictionary">Sharp e-dictionaries</a> aplenty here, but with the exception of a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2007/07/04/sharps-kd-e1-the-e-dictionary-for-your-offspring/">couple</a> of <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/sharps-midtastic-rd-pm10-electronic-dictionary/">models</a>,  that same ol&#8217; clamshell form factor&#8217;s bound to send you to snoozefest  sooner or later. To keep the Japanese bookworms interested, Sharp&#8217;s  latest offering &#8212; dubbed the Brain PW-AC10 &#8212; has packaged itself in a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/blackberry">BlackBerry</a>-esque  candybar, which it claims makes it the industry&#8217;s lightest e-dictionary  while carrying two AAA batteries that keep it going for 110 hours.  You&#8217;ll obviously have to make do with a shrunken color LCD (2.4-inch  QVGA) and keyboard, but the device still packs the usual  English-Japanese translator, flashcard feature, and a seven-language  traveling phrase book (with color images). ¥13,000 ($149) and it&#8217;s yours  early next month.</p>

<p>Ready to suck down your sixth <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/GoogleMaps/">Google Maps</a> for Android update in the past six months? Good. Version 4.4 has just  been shoved out into the bright, hopeful world that we call home, with  this one bringing about an easier way to find places around you. With  the update will come an entirely new logo, as a dedicated &#8216;Places&#8217; icon  allows users to quickly look up nearby places in a Yelp-esque manner. If  you tend to search for similar things regardless of where you are, you  can load up your own personalized categories to make finding frequent  searches that much easier (think &#8220;gas station&#8221; or &#8220;In N Out&#8221;). There&#8217;s  also Place Pages, which now shows the operating hours of listed  businesses, compass direction and distance from your location. It&#8217;s  available now for all <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Android/">Android</a> phones using v1.6 or newer, and if you&#8217;re rocking a BlackBerry, you can expect the Place Page to head your way soon.</p>

<p>Gotta live up to <a href="http://www.engadget.com/all/elitebook">the name</a>,  right HP? NVIDIA&#8217;s new pro graphics solution for mobile creatives, the  Quadro 5000M, was unsheathed only yesterday but HP appears to have been  first in line to get some of that new 40nm goodness. <em>Electronista</em> reports that the world leader in PC shipments is readying a 5000M solution for its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/24/hp-elitebook-8740w-pumped-up-with-intel-core-2010-cpus-ati-nv/">8740w</a> EliteBook, which will bring 320 CUDA cores and a jumbo 2GB of dedicated  memory to the party. That comes replete with the latest DirectX 11 and  OpenGL 4.1 compatibility, naturally, as well as a bunch of pro-friendly  computational enhancements. Dell&#8217;s also going to be offering a  5000M-equipped rig, but lest you get too excited, bear in mind that  getting the current best Quadro-equipped 17-incher from HP costs north  of $3,000, so affordability is clearly not a priority here. Skip past  the break for NVIDIA&#8217;s joyous press release announcing the new Quadro  chips.</p>
