Google Introducing Bollywood Music Search Engine

With the number of users increasing for Bollywood Music, Google had to come up with something really interesting. And here it is, Google has just launched Google Music Search for Indian users, which is a part of search engine. Google Music Search will let you find the old and new hit songs and listen to them online legally. Google has partnered with many local Bollywood music services for this and the move is planned to help drive down piracy which sound like out of control in many developing countries.
According to Tarkeshwar T, Deepak L, Aravind M, Vinodh Kumar R (Software Engineers), Alok Goel (Product Manager) at Google -

Today, we’re starting a trial to help you search and explore music across thousands of Hindi Bollywood songs at Google Music Search (India) Labs (http://google.co.in/music). You can find the latest Hindi songs, restrict your search to songs from 1980s, listen to songs sung by Kishore Kumar or Shreya Ghoshal or just all songs from the movie Buddha Mil Gaya.

The service might be aimed to Indian market, but the songs are available globally as Hindi Music is known to world. And its English interface will cut down all the barriers for non-Hindi users. Being a search engine, its strength is lies in locating the music you’re looking for, and is absolutely not designed for any online music streaming service. Google is doing something similar in China where it as well runs a music search engine. It also added a music search feature to Google.com which let users listen to song previews. And as an added advantage, the Google Music store and online locker service is yet coming this year.

Amazon Kindle Landing in Staples Stores October 10th

While Kindles have been enjoyed in Best Buys for a little while now, an official announcement at the end of August confirmed that the prodigal eReading device from Amazon would be making an appearance in Staples locations nation wide some time in the Fall. And now that Fall is officially upon us, an official date has been finally figured out. And for those waiting to check out the device in Staples stores, you won’t have to wait much longer.

The Amazon Kindle, in all three of its variations, will be landing in Staples stores beginning this Sunday, October 10th. The Kindle and Kindle 3G will be the only two models available on Sunday, so if you were hoping to get your hands on one of the Kindle DX models, you’ll have to wait until about mid-November. Staples is pulling out all the stops,too, as they’ve confirmed that accessories will be sold alongside the Kindle models.
If you’ve been waiting for the Kindle to land in more stores so you can actually interact with one before you pull the trigger on a purchase, Staples will have interactive displays for the Kindle units, and they should be in every store where the eReader will be sold. Potential customers will be able to use the Kindle for a short while, to help them determine if they’d like to pick one up. So if you don’t have a Target or Best Buy around you, and Staples is your last hope, you’re in luck. Prices will remain the same: $139 for the WiFi-only model, and $189 for the 3G+WiFi model. As for the DX, that will still run you $379 for the 9.7-inch device.

Motorola Bravo, Flipout and Flipside hands-on

Looking for a new Android form factor on AT&T and don't mind a bit of BLUR? Motorola's got you covered, with the mid-range Bravo, low-end Flipside and budget Flipout you see immediately above. We spotted the trio of Android 2.1 devices at CTIA 2010 and had to give them a try, and though none really impressed they've got some interesting designs. You won't hear us clapping for the $129 Bravo, as it's basically a pared-down Defy -- the same 3.7-inch WVGA slatephone, but with a fixed-focus three megapixel camera and without the ruggedized outsides.

Meanwhile, surfers, skaters and virtual keyboard haters could possibly enjoy the $80 Flipout and $100 Flipside. The former's got the same sort of irresistible, pocketable style that made Nintendo's Game Boy Advance SP an instant hit half a decade back, arguably even more so than its inspiration, though as you'd imagine the 2.8-inch QVGA screen and other Charm features leave much to be desired. It's a painfully slow, low-res experience for those used to serious smartphones. Though the Flipside throws in a decent landscape keyboard and an HVGA screen, they don't help much when it's got the exact same silicon and yet another iffy three megapixel shooter inside.

HTC outs black Legend and white Desire to keep you busy for the time being

It's almost a given that HTC may have a little announcement for us next Monday, but chances are you'd like to let Windows Phone 7 settle in for a bit while you cling on to your trusty green bot. Assuming neither the Desire HD nor the troublesome Desire Z / G2 tickled your fancy, you now have two more options for consideration: a "phantom black" Legend and a "brilliant white" Desire (as seen a few weeks ago). Patrons in Europe should be seeing these new handsets starting this month, but here's a caveat: we're told that rather than going 100 percentSLCD for the Desire, it's actually a mix of both SLCD and AMOLED, so be sure to double-check with your store before handing over your hard-earned euros.

T-Mobile G2 gets rooted

Who would've thought that a new Android device -- much less an HTC -- would get rooted? Quickly, no less? Okay, so this isn't the first piece of somewhat-obvious news we've had to report today, but it's newsworthy nonetheless: instructions are now online for obtaining root on your shiny new G2, albeit temporarily. It seems that the current hack vanishes into thin air once you reboot... but you know how this goes: we're certain that we're just days (if not hours, or minutes) away from a permanent solution. In the meantime, you know, just don't reboot.

Samsung Wave S8500 review

For some of us jaded and cynical gadget bloggers, getting a feature phone to review is somewhat painful. We grumble and roll our eyes, then put the box in a corner of the office for "later." See, feature phones are really just wannabe smartphones -- like a walled garden full of weeds and broken glass, most feature phones are crippled with restrictions and a crappy user experience. But somehow this time, when we finally opened the box, we discovered something different: a smartphone disguised as a feature phone. The Samsung Wave S8500 was announced with great fanfare at Mobile World Congress in February, and was (at the time) the first device to showcase the Bada mobile platform, the first to feature a Super AMOLED display, and the first to offer Bluetooth 3.0.

Rogers now shipping BlackBerry Torch

See, that wasn't so bad, was it? Would-be Captivate buyers are still waiting, but the slightly-delayed BlackBerryTorch is now shipping up on Rogers for CAD $199.99 ($194) on a three-year contract... all the way up to a rather mind-blowing CAD $609.99 ($592) contract-free. For that matter, opting for a two-year contract -- which is the longest you can get on AT&T, of course -- will mean you're shelling out CAD $499.99 ($485), which seems like a pretty tough pill to swallow considering the insanely non-linear decrease in subsidy. Doesn't seem like these guys are too close to contract and ETF reform, does it?
