    Apple Brings iTunes to Hong Kong, Singapore and 10 others in Asia, India left Out!

    Apple has finally started to branch out into what is a major chunk of their earning region. Hong Kong, Taiwan and Vietnam are among the dozen new countries where Apple has just launched their iTunes store for music and movies. Other countries include Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Macau, Malaysia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand. If you are asking then the answer is no, India was not included. 

    The company has left out India from the mix, possibly in comparison to the number of account holders. Hopefully, they can roll out the store in the coming months.

    HONG KONG-9:30 AM GMT +8, October 6-Today Meizu unveils a new product, the Meizu MX.

    Samsung and Google Confirm Ice Cream Sandwich Event for Oct 19th Galaxy Nexus Prime in Tow

    Looks like we finally have confirmation that the Galaxy Nexus Prime and the Ice Cream Sandwich release, which were earlier to be released on the 11th of Oct will now be released on the 19th of Oct 2011. The event has been moved to the 19th and some are speculating that despite Google and Samsung used Steve Jobs’ passing as an excuse the real reason was their FCC clearance delays.

    Either way we will have more on this shorty, and expect full coverage during launch time.
