The All New GK802 Android TV Stick Packs a Quad-core Freescale CPU onto a PC-on-a-stick

One of the first Android TV sticks to be powered by a "QUAD-CORE" (YES!!! you heard it right) ARM Cortex-A9 processor. The GK802 is a tiny computer about the size of a USB flash drive. It’s got a processor, memory, and storage, and an HDMI plug on one end, so you can plug the stick right into a TV or display to run Android apps on a big screen. The PC-on-a-stick features a 1.2 GHz Freescale i.MX6 quad-core processor with Vivante GC2000 graphics. That’s the same processor we found in the Ampe A10 tablet I reviewed recently, and while we weren’t that impressed with the tablet’s all-around performance, the CPU scored reasonably well in benchmarks. (in the range of 8500) The GK802 also features 1GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, a USB 2.0 host port, and a microUSB port for power.

Facebook finally gets a Facelift in iOS 6 !!!

Facebook's iOS app has finally been re-written after literally years of waiting for all iphone fans (something which android fans don't have to do) .  That said we are positively shocked to see Zuck & Co. just push out a timely update to Facebook’s official iOS client. It adds full support for iOS 6, just 24 hours following its public release. The new version also mentions iPhone 5 support, but Facebook stopped short of detailing what that means. We have a huch it’s got to do something with taking advantage of that taller display. Here’s your changelog… Official notes still list enhancements from the previous versions. These include  “faster than ever”  scrolling through your news feed and twice as fast opening and closing of photos using downward swipe. Also from the previous version: performance tweaks, bug fixes, faster access to notifications and a new banner that you can tap to quickly see more stories without having to manually refresh.

THE STORY TILL NOW:-  One had still not overcome the awesomeness of the MK802, It's sheer size was a matter of discussions in many a forums. "Look at the size of that thing, how can it be a PC". " The power of PC in your hand" were the slogans and quotes showered on the MK802, which truly was a revolutionary product. MK802 was followed up by a lot of versions - MK802 II, MK802+ and what not.  Then came the UG802 it changed the core and added one more, (Dual-core). users and bloggers reviewers massacred the MK802 vis-a-vis UG802 and UG802 Dual core Android PC ( on a dongle) was the winner in all forums. It had taken care of the heating problems which the MK802 had and also had a Dual core processor and a Quad core GPU. It meant everyone was happy about it. Well, things really happen fast in the tech-world, barely weeks into users basking the glory of the UG802, comes the new and improved "MK808" RK 3066 Android TV stick is in the market. What
