Wikipad slated for June 11th US launch at $250, worldwide ‘to follow this summer’

The 7-inch Android tablet with a game controller cradle — the Wikipad — launches in the United States on June 11th for $ 250, with a worldwide launch following later this summer. As for the initially announced 10.1-inch variation, that remains unclear — it’s not even mentioned in Wikipad’s press release from today. The same can be said for Gaikai / PlayStation Cloud support, though it’s possible we’ll hear more when Sony’s ready to unveil its streaming plans; Wikipad’s in a weird place in that relationship, having worked with Gaikai on streaming ahead of Sony’s purchase of the company. We’ve been repeatedly promised by Wikipad representatives that the functionality is still on the way.

The device is perhaps the largest outside of Sony internal products to carry PlayStation Mobile support, which gives owners access to a variety of classic PlayStation titles (think Crash Bandicoot, Jet Moto). Of course, at $ 250, the Wikipad costs the same as Sony’s own PlayStation Vita, which packs an arguably much nicer (though smaller) OLED screen and access to a much larger library of PlayStation games. The choice will be in consumers hands come June 11th.

Twitter gives API 1.0 a reprieve, lets it live until June 11th

Twitter gives API 10 apps a reprieve, lets them live until June 11th

Those who preferred Twitter’s earlier, more liberal ways have regarded May 7th with a sense of dread, as that’s when API 1.0 (and our chance at a truly competitive app ecosystem) was supposed to go dark. While the company isn’t about to reverse course, it is giving the refuseniks a break by delaying the shutdown until June 11th. More time is necessary for blackout tests, Twitter says. We wouldn’t lean too heavily on remaining API 1.0-era apps and services when that instability exists, but the extra month does allow for a gentler transition into API 1.1′s brave new world.

Orangeisthenewblack_10201_1020_large

Netflix hasn’t been coy about its ambitions with original programming this year: from House of Cards to Arrested Development, the company wants to become the next HBO. Those plans will keep moving forward on July 11th when Netflix will release its latest original program, Orange is the New Black. Based on a memoir by Piper Kerman, the show is created by Jenji Kohan — the woman behind Showtime’s Weeds. It’s described as a comedic drama that follows a woman (Taylor Schilling) who’s ripped from her New York lifestyle after being sentenced to a year in a federal penitentiary due to her involvement in a drug-running operation.

DNP Karaoke for Xbox Live starts singing on December 11th

Attention all songbirds: your time to shine is almost here. Microsoft and Stingray Media’s Karaoke will be hitting Xbox Live on December 11th. The game is free to download, but would-be vocalists will have to purchase playing sessions of two, six and 24 hours respectively priced at: 240, 400 and 800 Microsoft points. While this costly pay to play approach mirrors a traditional karaoke lounge’s setup, you’ll definitely save a few bucks on overpriced booze refreshments — that’s gotta count for something, right?
