When it comes to voice guidance and turn-by-turn directions, the GPS app on many smartphones and tablets usually needs to be coded in a native kind of way. TeleNav is changing that by offering the first GPS navigation service of its kind that is powered by HTML5. That means it can be completely browser-based and work on any OS.

It doesn’t have a name yet, but the new TeleNav creation completely opens up new windows for both developers and consumers. The HTML5 browser-based solution offers voice guidance and turn-by-turn, just like a standalone GPS navigation device. No need for a static mapping service. Developers can add a single line of code and away they go.

If you are a current app developer and would like to take advantage of the new HTML5 GPS API from TeleNav, you can sign up on their website for updates and such. Code once and deploy on multiple platforms. The planned launch is in early 2012.

HP TouchPad Android port edges closer to completion, hardware acceleration now enabled

September 22nd, 2011 by BayoeTech | Posted under MobilePhone.

After the fire sale that HP had to mark the end of webOS as we know it, the TouchPad suddenly became a very important device. A lot of people took the $100 offer and are now hoping to get as much bang for their buck as possible. Something that the abandoned webOS won’t deliver, but an Android port might just provide.

And the good news, brought by its developers themselves, are that the said port has moved another step closer to its official release. The Cyanogen team released a new video demonstrating the 3D gaming capabilities of their Android-running TouchPad.

The team has enabled the hardware graphics acceleration under Google OS, allowing for some of the most demanding Android games to be played on it. Check it out on video.

If you were among the lucky fellas to get one of the discounted TouchPads you’re certainly very eager to see the final version of this hit your device. Unfortunately however, the developers say that it’s a bit too early for that. We are not even at the stage when an estimated release time could be provided.
