Sphero

Back at CES 2011 Sphero became one of my favorite new gadgets of the show, but was still in the developmental stage.  I bumped into them again this year at CES 2013, but now the robotic ball has a full head of steam with 20+ iOS and Android games including a recently released augmented reality game.

Sprint Galaxy Nexus

Sprint is now offering the 4G LTE Galaxy Nexus at the grand price of $0 for newcomers or those willing to add a new line to their accounts.  If you’re looking to upgrade though, the Android 4.0-equipped phone will still set you back $100 with a new 2-year contract.

The Galaxy Nexus sports a 4.65″ display, a 1.2Ghz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory.

Spotify for Android

Spotify dropped its radio feature onto Android this week following the move to iOS back in June.  The feature is available for free to all users – even if you aren’t already a premium subscriber.  If you’re strictly a freeloader though, you’ll be forced to listen to the occasional commercial between songs – much like Pandora.

The other catch is that Spotify Radio is only available for US users for now.  Spotify is available for download from the Google Play Store.

Back to the tech after the jump… [click to continue…]
