- Official BlackBerry PlayBook Mini Keyboard coming on March 23rd for $120?
While there’s an array of unofficial third-party keyboards willing to pair up with your 7-inch RIM slate, an approved peripheral is likely to be the better option. At least, it’s what the BlackBerry-authorized add-on aims to accomplish. Dubbed Mini Keyboard, which also doubles as a “convertible” case, it’s said to start shipping on March 23rd for $120, packing a multitouch trackpad and claiming up to a month of juice on a single charge. Additionally, the device features 128bit encryption to put your paranoia at ease when you’re using that shiny OS 2.0. We’ve yet to hear an official word from RIM about price and availability, however, the source below seems to be taking pre-orders now.Official BlackBerry PlayBook Mini Keyboard coming on March 23rd for $120? originally appeared on Engadget on Sat, 10 Mar 2012 17:35:00 EDT.

N4BB, TheSource.ca | Email this | Comments - Marvel Comics greets true believers with free digital copy for select print titles
With great purchasing power apparently comes great affordability for Marvel Comics fans. Starting this June, folks who purchase any Marvel super hero comic priced at $3.99 will also get a free digital copy for Android or iOS. Examples of Marvel titles that will come with free codes include the Amazing Spider-Man, Avengers, Captain America, Mighty Thor and Invincible Iron Man. The new program continues the trend of comic book publishers invading the digital space like famished planet-eaters — Dark Horse, for instance, recently made a deal with Barnes & Noble. Similarly, DC Comics inked an agreement with Amazon, a move that got some DC titles sent to the Phantom Zone by B&N. Judging from the positive response to digital codes included in the Ultimate Comics line and Avenging Spider-Man, Marvel expects the expanded code program to act like a radioactive spider bite for comic book stores, boosting repeat visits. Feel that tingling? That’s your own Spidey sense telling you to swing past the break for Marvel’s official PR.

Weekly poll results: the Moto G7 Plus is the favorite in the G7 family
This probably won't come as much of a surprise - of the four new Motorola models, people strongly prefer the Moto G7 Plus. It offers a premium experience at just 300. This includes shooting 4K selfie videos, something that most flagships can't do. The rear 16MP camera boasts OIS and EIS, the lack of a tele/ultra-wide camera isn't a huge loss, judging by the comments. Same with the chipset - Snapdragon 636 is okay. But people weren't too happy about the 3,000mAh battery, despite its 27W fast charging capability. It's true that an Honor Play or Pocophone F1 have higher capacity batteries...

So, please buckle up, as today we will take the Moto G7 Power for a ride.
