Stream Out / Transform Feedback Now In RadeonSI
Published on 12 September 2013 09:39 PM EDT

With Git activity this evening, StreamOut / OpenGL Transform Feedback is now enabled for the AMD "RadeonSI" Gallium3D driver for the Radeon HD 7000 and 8000 series graphics processors.
Earlier this month I wrote about
transform feedback being ready for RadeonSI
and finally today the commits were made to the mainline Mesa code-base for enabling this important OpenGL feature. Why this work is noteworthy is that it effectively makes the RadeonSI Gallium3D driver now on par for being in compliant with the OpenGL 3.0 specification.
The RadeonSI driver is still behind the R600 Gallium3D driver in terms of OpenGL support, but at least they're catching up. The RadeonSI support is also more dependent upon the AMD GPU LLVM back-end for new support.
This commit
in Mesa enabled transform feedback for the Radeon HD 7000 "Southern Islands" (SI) hardware while
this commit
turns it on for the HD 8000 "Sea Islands" (CIK) hardware.

Just like a comic book super hero, you could say that the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD1) has a secret identity. Since its discovery in 1969, scientists believed SOD1's only role was to protect living cells against damage from free radicals. Now, researchers at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health have discovered that SOD1 protects cells by regulating cell energy and metabolism. The results of their research were published January 17, 2013, in the journal Cell.
Transforming oxygen to energy for growth is key to life for all living cells, which happens either through respiration or fermentation. When oxygen is plentiful, respiration normally takes over; however certain cells fail to respire in spite of abundant oxygen and instead ferment, leading to uncontrolled cell growth—a hallmark of cancer.
Using the baker's yeast S. cerevisiae as well as a human cell line, researchers Valeria C. Culotta, PhD, and colleague Amit Reddi from the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology determined that SOD1 transmits signals from oxygen and glucose to repress respiration. This signaling is accomplished through SOD1 protection of another enzyme known as casein kinase 1-gamma (CK1γ), which is an important key to the switch between respiration and fermentation.
"SOD enzymes are present in virtually all living cells, from the most ancient bacteria to every cell in the human body," explained Culotta. "I've been telling my students to think of SOD1 as a superhero. It not only defends cells from damaging free radicals, but also has a secret life as a guardian of cell energy and metabolism."
"Our findings provide new clues as to how rapidly dividing cells—from yeast to human cancers—may escape the urge to respire and instead choose fermentation to promote rapid growth," said Culotta.
"SOD1 has long been recognized as an important enzyme in protection from oxidative stress, but this work establishes an important new function for the enzyme in cellular metabolism," said Vernon Anderson, PhD, of the National Institutes of Health's National Institute of General Medical Sciences, which partly funded the study. "The results provide important insight into how SOD1 and oxygen radicals push cellular energy metabolism towards fermentation, a feature of some disease states, including cancer."

fionagreen's ideas
Attractive, open, clean looking staircase
idea of the central pillar for the staircase - brick or Cornish stone?
impressive, clean staircase. We would choose a lighter oak for the wood, but gallery area also good
Like the way the doors and staircase "match", impressive entrance, first impression
like railings and glass centre
mistake - can't work out how to delete it !
Impressive landing gallery, staircase more clearly shown in photo below, we'd like oak
like openness and railings, don't like the stone stairs
like the lighting on the stairs
staircase from photo above
wow factor staircase, open , lighting great
back view of the first photo above, don't need the strange sculptures !
like the way that the room links to adjoining rooms via pillars/arches and the windows
main house design that we like. The triangular roof window design is good, the main 1st floor windows are made interesting by having doors, windows and side panels. The windows elsewhere are interesting and the cladding on the building helps
interior roof beams mirror the external design and run front to back
like the door designs, having the solid panel at the bottom does not restrict the light but does make them a less functional, more attractive feature - maybe for the ground floor?
again, panel window doors
these windows might work upstairs, again the panels make them interesting and the high windows work well with the lower windows
Like window seat and cushions
Island in centre for kitchen
front door? side panels out side fireplace
the stone wall behind staircase
cupboards hooks etc
lights and window behind
lights over island
an idea for an outside seated area
beautiful outside space, also like outside fire idea
like the double sided folding doors

In Georgian times, then as now, people were fascinated by visual images; of course, in those days there was no television or cinema and so art was the draw. However only those with spare income could afford the entry fee into art exhibitions, and indeed, the free, annual
exhibition was so popular that it was mobbed by unruly crowds and eventually an entry fee was levied to keep the poorest out. But in the 18th century with the rise of the print shop, their window displays became the new galleries, drawing crowds to gaze on the latest works of art. Royal Academy
|A Gillray cartoon depicting a crowd outside
a print shop in St James's Street.
It took printer John Boydell to give a leg up to English engravers when he spotted a potential market amongst middle income earners, for art work to put on their walls. He commissioned prints of familiar
scenes and his business instinct was amply rewards as he made a small fortune. The public taste for prints was kept fresh by rapid developments in technique: mezzotint 1760's, aquatint 1770's and stipple in 1780's. Indeed such was their popularity that one observer, Sophie La Roche, described the wide pavement outside a print shop in London Cheapside:
"[to]..enable crowds of people to stop and inspect the new exhibits."
Boydell's art was mainly classical and with the French Revolutionary wars his export trade floundered, but around the same time a new vogue arose - that of the caricature.
|Gillray's 'The Three Graces' -
an observation on the fashions of the day.
Perhaps Hogarth stimulated this new trend, with scenes depicting moral corruption, indeed James Gillray (a heavy weight in the golden age of caricature) sites Hogarth as one of his greatest inspirations. Gillray was a political satirist of genius and his work still gives the modern social historian a priceless insight into the Georgian world.
In the late 18th century, 6d (plain) to 1s (coloured) a print would purchase a print to brighten the walls of a tavern, lodging house or workplace. Caricatures tickled the English sense of humour and quickly became all the rage, with a commensurate increase in the number of shops selling them.
James Gillray (1756 - 1815) was one of the greatest artists of this type, regularly making fun of the regent's pretensions to knowledge and the king's miserly tendances. Gillray became so influential on public perception that the king tried to suppress one of his prints (L'Assemblie Nationale) and paid a huge amount of money to buy the original plate. Gillray's publisher was a Miss Hannah Humphrey and his name was linked with hers romantically. He lived above her print shop in St James's until his death in 1815, and his print "Very Slippery Weather" shows crowds gathered around the window.
|Gillray's 'L'Assemblee Nationale'.
One of Gillray's competitors, Cruikshank, records how the artist worked with prodigious speed:
"Sometimes he would at once etch a subject on the prepared copper plate... unable even to submit to the process of drawing it upon paper... he worked furiously, without stopping to remove the burr thrown up by the [burrin]; consequently his fingers often bled from being cut by it".
The period 1789 - 1815 is widely acknowledged as the height of print influence and popularity and it was with interest that I passed this print shop on modern day,
St Jame's Street. It didn't have crowds round the window but people were stopping to look at the prints, reminding me of a bygone time.

Gippsland Power players picked in AFL draft
Two Gippsland Power footballers have been selected in the AFL draft. Tim Membrey, captain of the club was picked for the Sydney Swans and midfielder Nick Graham will go to Carlton.

- Email this
- Permalink
A number of star players from the team missed out on the draft, Josh Scott from Lakes Entrance, Ben Kearns from Churchill and Will Ham from Sale were all favourites for a spot.
Peter Francis, regional manager for Gippsland Power, says there were over 1600 players nominated for the draft this year, so competition was tough.
"It was a disappointing night given the build up to the draft. I'm really disappointed for some of our boys. Having said that there are a lot of good players out there and there is a huge talent pool," he says.
Peter says he is happy with the Swans pick.
"[Tim has] had two really good seasons. He kicked 20 goals during our finals season," he says.
Tim will fly to Sydney on Sunday and will be straight into training on Monday.
The player says he is happy to have the opportunity.
"I'm very excited but very nervous as well," Tim says.
Nick Graham, who is a Morrish Medal winner, is a steal for Carlton as a great midfielder with 28 possessions for the season, Peter Francis says.
"The Blues over the years haven't taken many of our boys so it's really good this year that they have," he says.
The AFL rookie draft is still to come and Peter hopes a few more Gippsland Power players will be picked, but he is still content with all his players' performances.
"I think our players presented themselves really well all year and that's all you can ask for," he says.

MOSCOW (AP) — Inmates at Russia's prisons have been known to bribe guards to obtain cellphones. But using cats as couriers?
Guards patrolling a prison colony in Russia's north saw a feline on the fence and it seemed to be carrying something. On a closer look, they found a few cellphones and chargers taped to the cat's belly.
The federal prison service said Monday that this happened on Friday at Penal Colony No. 1 near the city of Syktyvkar in the Komi province, 1,000 kilometers (some 600 miles) northeast of Moscow.
It wasn't clear how the cat was supposed to drop off its loot.

Foodie news in Dubai
We say farewell to Sezzam and Planet Hollywood Discuss this article
- Picture 1 of 2
The Insider is not one for doom and gloom, but it seems that this week's news is occupied with high-profile closings rather than openings. Now that Hard Rock Café has secured its position as the city's most over-the-top homage to the cult of celebrity, there's Planet Hollywood in WAFI has done the noble thing and fallen on its sword (closed) rather than face years of inevitable emptiness. We're told that a high-end Middle Eastern restaurant (which must be the antithesis to a relatively low-end American restaurant) will be opening in its place in coming months. Another one to bite the dust is Sezzam. The Kempinski family-favourite at Mall of the Emirates will no longer provide parents a great place to dump their kids over Friday brunch, having closed to make way for a 'new and exciting project'.
Though not quite as high-profile as Planet Hollywood or Sezzam, Boutique 1's likeable little café on The Walk, JBR has closed, leaving bored husbands nowhere to hide when dragged along on a shopping spree. (Gents, we suggest hiding in nearby Saladicious instead.) Happily, closures inevitably mean new openings to look forward to, which can be said of boutique hotel Hues in Deira, which has recently reopened after a refurbishment. This said, it may as well drop the 're' since no one actually knew it was open in the first place (sorry, but it's true). Dining options will include Metro, an all-day dining restaurant, as well as a bar called Mistakes. With a name like this, the review's writing itself.
In infinitely more exciting news, we're looking forward to the opening of The Farm way out on the Al Barari estate (well, it's only 15 minutes from Downtown Dubai). Overlooking a lake and surrounded by botanical gardens, the new restaurant serving up all manner of locally sourced, organic fare (at least, where possible, according to representatives), should prove a tasty destination option for anyone wanting to escape the hubbub of Dubai. The Farm is due to open at the end of March of early April – expect a review in Time Out soon. Finally, it's always nice to learn something new, and this week we learned that the Oreo cookie has recently turned 100 (not a specific cookie, mind). Whether hydrogenated and non-hydrogenated vegetable fats and natural-identical flavouring (whatever that is) were used in 1912, we're unsure, but happy birthday all the same. Until next week: bon appétit.By Oliver Robinson

Reinsdorf was talked into deal
Chicago White Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf said Friday he was initially opposed to the trade that sent former Cy Young winner Jake Peavy to Chicago.
Reindorf said White Sox GM Williams sent him an e-mail to ask him if he wanted Peavy. Reinsdorf said no but he was willing to talk.
More White Sox from ESPNChicago.com
Levine's blog:
Sox pay pretty penny for Peavy
Peavy: I'm happy to be here
Reinsdorf: 'I had to be talked into deal'
Greenberg: Williams outfoxes foes for Peavy | Peavy's change of heart
Jackson: Kenny master of cool
Isaacson: Sox don't fear the Yankees
Listen: Peavy | Williams | Reinsdorf
"He and Rick [Hahn, assistant general manager] came in and talked me into it," Reinsdorf told Chicago's Baseball Tonight on ESPNChicago radio. "That's how it went down."
The White Sox gave up pitchers Clayton Richard, Aaron Poreda, Dexter Carter and Adam Russell in the deal.
Initially, Reinsdorf said, he was concerned about the team's financial commitment to Peavy. ESPNChicago.com's Bruce Levine reported the White Sox will pick up all $56 million that's due on Peavy's contract, a deal that runs through 2012, with a $22 million option for 2013. The $56 million includes the buyout for the option on 2013, which would cost the club an additional $14 million.
"That's a lot of money to put on a pitcher," Reinsdorf said, adding that Peavy would probably not be available to the team until the end of August.
But, the White Sox chairman conceded, the Peavy trade will set the team's rotation up nicely for the future.
"With Buehrle, Danks, Floyd and Peavy -- that's as good a four starters as you are going to see in baseball, probably," Reinsdorf said. "I'm sure we'll get a fifth starter to go along with them. As far as this year is concerned, if we can get to the playoffs, the playoffs are all about pitching, and that's what won it for us in '05. So I decided, OK, we'll roll the dice."
Jake Peavy
San Diego Padres
Reinsdorf said he thinks Peavy agreed to the trade because he was going to a contender.
"San Diego is going in a different direction now," Reinsdorf said. "They're going young, they're building strictly for the future, and what he had to look at if he stayed in San Diego is pitching for a club that might not be able to compete for a few years. Weigh that against coming to a contender, and I think that's what made up his mind."
Reinsdorf also noted the team doesn't have unlimited funds like the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees. After going over the books, Reinsdorf said team officials thought they could handle Peavy's contract.
When asked where the Peavy trade ranked during his tenure at the White Sox, Reinsdorf said it was probably as big a shocker as when the team signed slugger Albert Belle and catcher Carlton Fisk.
"Nobody thought we were going to be able to sign Carlton Fisk when we did," Reinsdorf said. "Albert Belle really shocked everybody, because we were supposedly cheapskates and we signed a player for the first $10 million contract. "
While Reinsdorf admitted there was a lot of money at stake, he said winning for the fans was his goal.
"I think this really puts us in a great position to give our fans a contending ballclub for the next several years," he said.

is not a problem. I am the product of individuals who came through Ellis Island, and it is what makes this country innovative. However, I am against all "illegal" immigration ie, people just crossing the borders and taking up residency.
Why? I have no clue who they are. Some could be violent criminals from another country running from the law etc.
I believe that people have natural rights where ever they may live, but don't believe America should have open borders where anyone can walk right on in. I don't care who they are, or what country they come from. If they want to be "American" they can go through the process that everyone's ancestors had to go through.
Also, thousands come here legally every year, and they had the gumption to do it the right way, while others walk right across the border? That does not seem right.
Illegal immigration is a national security issue in the making.

Germantown — A vote to accept a Project Lead the Way cohort agreement was tabled recently after School Board members raised concerns about cost and privacy.
Project Lead the Way is a leading provider of science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) programs to districts such as Germantown.
"It has become an active part of your technical education coursework," Superintendent Jeff Holmes said. "Good things are happening as a result of that (curriculum)."
Board member Brian Medved questioned the program's $3,000 price tag.
"It (the agreement) lists expenses, but I don't know if we use all those (services)," he said.
Board member Bruce Warnimont stated he was pleased the board was not taking action on the agreement. His concern centered on the privacy and security of information about students' academic progress, worrying it might be solicited for recruitment and advertising purposes by third parties.
"As much as I love Project Lead the Way ... and the growth of our students, I will not approve a contract … (which) divulges any student information to anybody," Warnimont said. "I don't think it is appropriate for anyone other than our students and our staff to know how our students are progressing."
The vote was postponed to give board members and parents time to research the use of funds and the privacy stipulations within the agreement.

Moderation promised: Will NH Democrats deliver?
New Hampshire Democrats racked up big victories on Tuesday by campaigning as moderates opposed to "extremist" and "radical" governing. Now we get to see if they meant it.
New Hampshire has seen this movie before. Democrats won governing majorities in 2006 and 2008 on the same theme. They promised to govern as sensible moderates who would protect the New Hampshire Advantage while balancing the budget and responsibly funding the state's most important priorities. It did not work out that way.
The Democrats passed massive spending increases and dramatically raised taxes and fees. When the tax and fee revenue was not enough to cover their spending increases, they resorted to dishonest budget gimmicks such as borrowing money to pay for operating expenses and moving some spending off the books. They even passed an income tax on owners of Limited Liability Companies. On top of that, they pursued left-wing social issues on which they had not campaigned.
The voters responded in 2010 by electing the largest Republican majorities the Legislature has ever seen. Republicans won nearly 300 of 400 House seats and 19 of 24 Senate seats. Republicans immediately set about correcting the Democrats' overspending and undoing the tax and fee hikes.
But Republicans overreached on other issues, and Democrats successfully painted them as extremists out of touch with New Hampshire. So this year voters elected Democrats to correct the overreach of Republicans who had been elected to correct the overreach of Democrats.
The meaning of these fluctuations ought to be clear. New Hampshire voters want a government that is somewhere in the middle of what both parties are offering. Take the state too hard in one direction or the other, and there will be consequences at the polls. New Hampshire Democrats learned their lesson about campaigning openly for an income or sales tax. Have they also learned the lesson about steering the ship of state too hard to one end of the political spectrum?

Lots of great menu choicesPosted on 09 / 01 / 2014
I love this restaurant! I've had tofu tacos, which are so flavorful. My favorite choice is the vegetarian salad. It's HUGE and all of the vegetables are so fresh. The hummus is amazing and the house salad dressing is the best I've ever had. The other go to choice is the superfood salad. You can't go wrong with this restaurant!
Cons: a little pricey

Belgium preview - Williams' best chance yet to topple Mercedes
So the summer break is over and everybody is raring to go again at one of the most popular circuits on the calendar - Spa-Francorchamps.And while the odds continue to favour the Mercedes-engined cars, with their acknowledged power advantage, the question is whether Mercedes themselves will lead the charge - or whether they will be troubled by Williams, who believe that they have their best chance since Austria of winning a race in 2014."In theory Spa and Monza should be the next really good ones for us," Valtteri Bottas reckons.

This is a kayaking paradise! Bring your own or rentals are available near by.
Whatever you chose to do, relax, eat, swim, boat, fish or put your feet up on the porch rail, you will melt into the sunset.
'If once you have slept on an island,
You'll never be quite the same:
You may look now as you've always looked,
And go by the same name.
You may hustle about in street and shop,
You may sit at home and sew.
But you'll see blue water and wheeling gulls
Wherever your feet may go.
You may chat with neighbors of this and that,
and close to the fire keep.
But you'll hear ship whistle and lighthouse bell,
And tides beat through your sleep.
And you won't know why and you can't say how
Such a change upon you came.
But once you have slept on an island
You'll never be quite the same!'

Brother HL-L2300D Mono Laser Printer review
The cheapest printer in Brother's new SOHO range might not offer stacks of features, but it's fast and very cheap to run.
The cheapest printer in Brother's new SOHO range might not offer stacks of features, but it's fast and very cheap to run.
Logitech put out a mechanical keyboard that pushes the bar with excellent performance for hardcore gamers, and fun, durable comfort for the casual user.
We all hate scanning documents. Can Fujitsu's tiny desktop scanner change our minds?
The MFC-L2740DW packs a lot of features into a small and reasonably affordable package.
Headset manufacturers are beginning to implement professional features into luxury units. The Jabra Evolve 80 is the latest addition to this fad. But is it worth the cost?
Epson's latest consumer offering is an attractive little WiFi-enabled printer that turns out high quality photos and includes a host of fun features.
This affordable surround sound headset deserves a spot in your gaming peripheral arsenal
Canon never disappoints when it releases a new photo printer. The Pixma MG7520 is no exception.
Those wanting a headset that can stay comfortable for several hours won't find a better one than the Siberia V3.
Fantastic for anyone who wants the performance and comfort of a gaming mouse without an industrial design.

Siri Co-Founder Dag Kittlaus Leaves Apple
Posted October 24, 2011 at 12:55pm by here | 15564 views| Please help us and submit a translation by clicking
Siri co-founder and CEO, Dag Kittlaus, has left Apple, according to AllThingsD.
There were several reasons for the departure, which was amicable and has been planned for a while, sources said. They included Kittlaus' family being in Chicago, a desire to take time off and an interest in brainstorming new entrepreneurial ideas.
Kittlaus headed up Apple's speech recognition efforts since his company was purchased by Apple in April 2010. He had been CEO of Siri since 2007.
Apparently, Kittlaus left Apple after the launch of the iPhone 4S.

Get the Latest Walkman from the Xperia S, T, and V on any ICS Device
Posted October 1, 2012 at 07:00 am by egzthunder1
As we love having different things from different devices on our "non-compatible" phones, we cannot help but enjoy features such as the Sense lock screen, TouchWiz, Blur (riiight), Timescape, and more. One feature that has not gotten a whole lot of press is the Walkman player present in the Xperia S, T, and V devices.

Simultaneous USB OTG and Charging on Certain Xperias
Posted September 30, 2012 at 09:00 pm by Former Writer
USB On-The-Go is probably one of the greatest tools for Android that not a lot of people know about. With it you can connect virtually anything that requires USB into your Android device, including external hard drives, flash drives, keyboards, mice, and pretty much whatever else you can think of—even your DSLR. As OTG technology gets more popular, the features that come with it will evolve as well. For many Xperia devices, including the Xperia S, P, U, Sola, and Acro S, you can now simultaneously use OTG and charge your device.
The method was written out by XDA Senior Member sonic_boom and it does require some hardware modification. Initially, the hardware mod gave users a choice to switch a cable from OTG . . . READ ON »
Unofficial AOKP Jelly Bean Ported to 14 Sony Xperia Devices
Posted September 21, 2012 at 08:30 am by Former Writer
When it comes to multi-device releases, it doesn't get much more straightforward than a widespread Sony Xperia release. Given how close the hardware and software is between devices, it isn't overly difficult to get a single piece of software working on a number of devices. As such, unofficial AOKP Jelly Bean was ported to 14 Sony Xperia devices practically all at once.
XDA Recognized Contributor championswimmer, on behalf of the KangXperiaProject, brings us the ROMs. However, many thanks go to the FreeXperia Team, whose work was critical to the achievement. In championswimmer's words:
It is very important to mention here that nothing, yes i repeat NOTHING was possible without the awe
Boot Manager for the Xperia S
Posted September 21, 2012 at 12:00 am by Former Writer
Dual booting on Android is a lot of fun. Not only does this give users a chance to run multiple ROMs, but users can also separately customize each instance of the OS to suit their needs. Sony Xperia S owners may be getting dual boot functionality very soon.
XDA Senior Member letama has released a very rough Boot Manager for the Xperia S. We say rough because it's version 0.2, and it has been deemed okay if you don't mind the experimental warning label. There's a lot of work going on with this project, so it shouldn't take an excessive amount of time to compete.

Sony Releases Xperia S Binaries for AOSP Support
Posted September 3, 2012 at 05:00 pm by Haroon Q. Raja
It's been a couple of weeks since we shared news that the Sony Xperia S was being added to the AOSP (Android Open Source Project) by Technical Lead Jean-Baptiste Queru. This aims to deliver a Nexus-like, pure vanilla Android experience to the device. Now, Sony has released the proprietary binaries required to make it happen!
This is the first time since the introduction of the Nexus One that a non-Nexus phone receives the official AOSP treatment. We hope this is a sign of things to come, as this will make ROM development easier, without worries of filing petition after petition for the required proprietary binaries and other essentials. What's more, the CyanogenMod team has also commi. . . READ ON »

CM10 Alpha Builds for 7 Xperia Devices
Posted August 2, 2012 at 09:00 pm by Former Writer
The Sony Xperia line up has been rather busy in recent weeks. With the Xperia S lock screen being ported to five other Xperia devices and ICS AOKP getting ported to 16 Xperia devices, users have had a lot to do with their Xperia devices. The trend doesn't seem to be stopping any time soon, as over half a dozen Xperia devices now have CM10 ports. Specifically, the Sony Xperia Ray, Sony Xperia Neo/NeoV, Sony Xperia Arc/Arc S/Pro, and the Xperia S.
Normally, there would be a laundry list of developers responsible for a laundry list of CM10 releases like this. That is not the case this time. XDA Recognized Developer FXP is actually responsible for all of them. In fact, FXP has released all the CM10 ROMs in the same thre. . . READ ON »
New Root Method Released for Xperia S Devices With Locked Bootloaders
Posted July 15, 2012 at 11:30 pm by Former Writer
As a device gets older, the development surrounding it evolves. Root methods come, root methods go, and new root methods are born. This also goes for ROMs, kernels, and pretty much any other type of development you can think of. It happens for various reasons, but typically it's due to firmware updates that render old methods obsolete. In other cases, it's to achieve root when stuck on a locked bootloader. The Sony Xperia S falls into that category.
With this newer root method, users have not one, but two different methods—the long way by XDA Forum Member sharaz22 or the short way by XDA Forum Member hk2006. Both root methods ultimately achieve the same goal, but there are reports of both met. . . READ ON »
Ice Cream Sandwich Rolling Out to Sony Xperia S
Posted June 21, 2012 at 01:00 pm by Will Verduzco
Just about six months ago, we wrote about how Sony was extremely prompt in releasing an alpha build of Ice Cream Sandwich for much of its Xperia line. Now to put this in context, this is the same company that tried to convince us that their skinned version of Android 2.1 Éclair was better than Android 2.2 Froyo, and thus an upgrade to vanilla Froyo would actually be a downgrade.
Luckily, it seems as if Sony has learned from its mistakes and is now doing its best to actively support the very customers who ultimately buy their products. Today, Sony has announced that they are rolling out Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich to the Sony Xperia S. With it, come several new applications aimed at delivering a more Son. . . READ ON »
