Sony brings Android Open Source Project to Xperia Tablet Z

AOSP is now available for the Xperia Tablet Z -- it'll live on GitHub, along with instructions and other resources. Community Manager Marcus Hansson dropped by YouTube to demo AOSP. You'll find that Jelly Bean (4.2.2) walkthrough posted after the break, along with a warning to non devs: "The software is not intended for everyday use, and therefore does not include all apps and services usually expected in ordinary software." That could always change in the future, but if you're expecting a seamless stock experience for personal use, you probably won't find it here.</div></div><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/16WZOqgFBI8?feature=player_embedded" width="640"></iframe></div>

NVIDIA Tegra 3 open source code gets early 3D support

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div class="copy post-body" dir="ltr" itemprop="text" style="text-align: left;"> <div class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="NVIDIA Tegra 3 open source drivers add 3D support" data-src-height="340" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/04/nvidia-tegra-3-chip.jpg" /></div>It's a given that NVIDIA's Tegra 3 can handle 3D -- unless you've been crafting a fully open source project around the chip, at which point you've been stuck in a flat world. Fresh contributions from Avionic Design's Thierry Reding have brought that extra dimension back, albeit in limited form. His early patches for the Linux kernel enable support for 3D when using the Tegra Direct Rendering Manager driver. There's also a matching Gallium3D driver for us regular users, although it's still young: it can run reference 3D code as of a recent check, but can't produce visible imagery. While it may take some months before everything falls into place, the officially-backed work should make the (slightly aging) chip that much more useful beyond the realms of Android and Windows RT.<br /> </div></div>

MediaPortal 1.3 exits beta with official Windows 8 support, revamped skins

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> <img alt="MediaPortal 1.3 exits beta with official Windows 8 support, revamped skins" data-src-height="349" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/03/titan.jpg" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">MediaPortal<a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=7080182682816192337"> 1.3 is throwing its hat in the air today after graduating from beta to full release status. The Titan skin intended for 1080p widescreen displays has made the final version with plug-in support, but don't worry if it doesn't fit your style or screen, as the default skins have also been refined. UI themes and settings can be easily modified for deeper personalization, and you can now highlight shows in the TV guide to better plan your evening's entertainment. Unencrypted Blu-Rays will work in the native player (with the right decoder) and several improvements have been made to video playback and the bundled codec library. MediaPortal settings can be configured more easily in 1.3 and the "My Videos" section has picked up some new features. Finally, 1.3 adds official Windows 8 support, although the team admits there may be some bugs that remain undiscovered. If MediaPortal is your HTPC software of choice, you might want to check out the complete changelog at the source link, where you'll also find installation instructions if you wanna cut straight to the hands-on.</a></div></div>

Pwnie Express launches the Pwn Pad, takes hackproofing on the road

<div dir="rtl" style="text-align: right;" trbidi="on"><hr dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" /> <div class="image-container" dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;"> <img alt="Pwnie Express launches the Pwn Pad, takes hackproofing on the road " data-src-height="340" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/02/pwnie-express-pwn-pad.jpg" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"> Pwnie Express-made security tools like the Power Pwn have mostly been stationary creatures that aren't much help when checking for network vulnerabilities on the move. There's now a more mobile version, though, in the Pwn Pad. The kit combines a Nexus 7 with USB-based Bluetooth, Ethernet and WiFi to gauge the security of a network beyond what Google's tablet can manage on its own. Ubuntu Linux is available in the Pwn Pad's software loadout, but part of the appeal comes from running a suite of tools in Android that aren't always available on the platform, such as Kismet. The $795 price will seem steep to those who bought the plain Nexus 7 at a quarter of the price, although it might end up being a discount for security gurus who want to leave bulkier tools -- even their laptops -- at home.</div><div class="open" dir="ltr" id="pr_box" style="text-align: left;"> <div id="pr_box_button">Hide Press Release</div><div id="pr_text"> <em><strong>Penetration Testing Product Company Pwnie Express is Headed for RSA 2013 with New Products and an Exciting Video Contest</strong></em><br /> <em>Pwnie Express Heads to RSA with the New Enterprise Pentesting Appliance (EPA) and Announces the Release of the Pwn Pad and an Exciting Video Contest.</em><br /> <em>The Enterprise Pentesting Appliance (EPA)</em><br /> <em>The EPA builds on the value proposition of our earlier products in that it's designed to make the work of security testers easier, faster and more comprehensive.</em><br /> <em>Berlin, Vermont (PRWEB) February 22, 2013</em><br /> <em>Pwnie Express is showing up at RSA2013 with a satchel full of pentesting goodies!<br /> Pwnie Express is leading with the all new Enterprise Pentesting Appliance (EPA). " The EPA addresses the Advanced Persistent Threat" according to Jonathan Cran, CTO and Software Lead for Pwnie Express, "The EPA builds on the value proposition of our earlier products in that it's designed to make the work of security testers easier, faster and more comprehensive." Equipped with Pwn Plug innovation, the EPA enables coverage of a large number of remote offices, persistent pentesting functionality and centralized management capabilities. According to Cran, the EPA has a dual-core 2.66Ghz processor and 8GB of ram, more than enough to get the job done with Nessus, NeXpose, or other commercial scanners. Support for KVM also means Windows VMs with commercial Windows tools can be added. Pwnie Express has equipped the EPA with a 4G adapter, and both a wireless and bluetooth card that support monitor mode and injection (wireless). The EPA also supports common ZigBee, SDR and RFID radios.</em><br /> <em>Pwnie Express is also announcing the release of the industry-re-defining Pwn Pad, a tablet, loaded with wired and wireless pentesting tools. Adding to the robust line-up of tools that address the human threat (insider threats, social engineering and security awareness), the Pwn Pad provides professionals an unprecedented ease of use in evaluating wired and wireless networks. "Building and innovating devices like the PwnPad at Pwnie Express is what makes our work unique, valuable, and fun. It rocks" said Awk (Oliver Wies) the developer of the Pwn Pad and the Pwn Phone, a pentesting workhorse that has been around since Pwnie Express' inception. "The Pwn Pad contains bleeding edge tools for enterprise wired and wireless attacks not found on any other ARM pentesting devices" Wies said when asked to describe the product. The sleek form factor of the Pwn Pad makes it an ideal product choice when on the road or conducting a company or agency walk-through. This high-speed, lightweight device, featuring extended battery life and 7" of screen real estate offers pentesters an alternative never known before.</em><br /> <em><span>Pwnie Express' latest contest,<span> </span></span>"Don't Get Pwned – Pwnie Up"<span><span> </span>features a cyber security awareness video showing several security breaches occurring in less than 3 minutes. This fast-paced video, both educational and entertaining offers participants a chance to win a Pwn Plug. PwnieExpress will feature demos of the EPA and Pwn Pad at 11:30 and 1:30 on each day of the exhibit. The contest video is available for viewing both on line and at their booth (#2747) at RSA.2013.</span></em><br /> </div></div></div>
