D3Live: Best Holiday 2010 Gifts

**The Galaxy Tab: A Good Gift Alternative to the iPad?**

The Galaxy Tab is a Samsung Android tablet that bears some similarities to the iPad. It runs on the competing Android operating system, which is somewhat similar to the kind of operating system used in iPhones. While the Galaxy Tab has its own set of features and advantages, I personally think it's not the best choice when compared to the iPad.

One of the major drawbacks of the Galaxy Tab is that it doesn't have the same level of polish and simplicity as the iPad. The Android operating system, which was originally designed for smartphones, can feel a bit jumbled when scaled up to larger screens like the Galaxy Tab's 7-inch display. In contrast, the iPad's operating system has been specifically optimized for tablets.

**The Blackberry Playbook: A Future Rival?**

However, I do think that if you were in the market for two tablets, the Galaxy Tab would be a great choice as a secondary option. And with the upcoming release of the Blackberry Playbook, which is expected to hit shelves early next year, we may have another tablet contender on our hands.

**Choosing Between Tablets and iPads: What's Best?**

When it comes to choosing between tablets and iPods, or even deciding whether to get a Galaxy Tab or an iPad, it really depends on your specific needs. If you're looking for something small and portable that can do everything your smartphone can do, then an iPod might be the way to go.

However, if you need more power and functionality from your device, such as a larger screen, better multitasking capabilities, and access to more apps, then an iPad is probably your best bet. Similarly, while the Galaxy Tab has some nice features of its own, like a camera and Blu-ray capabilities, it's still not as polished or user-friendly as the iPad.

**Playstation 3 vs Xbox 360: Which Game Console Reigns Supreme?**

And finally, when it comes to choosing between game consoles, I personally think that the PlayStation 3 is a great choice for anyone who wants access to Blu-ray movies and games. However, with the Xbox 360's strong game library and more affordable price point, especially for the 4GB version, it's not hard to see why this console might be a close second.

In any case, whether you're in the market for an iPad, a Galaxy Tab, or a PlayStation 3, I hope this helps give you some insight into what each of these devices has to offer!

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys and welcome to this week's episode of D3 live uh so today we're going to be talking about some of the best holiday gifts for 2010 now obviously every year there's going to be all kinds of new gadgets new gizmos new video game consoles all kinds of stuff and sometimes it can be a little bit difficult to sort through what's good and what's bad so this year I'm go ahead and give my full overview of what the kind of the really the best of the best in my opinion uh what what really you ought to be looking for for this holiday season so to begin with let's go ahead and take a look at one of the bigger sellers every year which are video game consoles uh now my pick is definitely going to be for this is going to be the new Xbox 360 along with connect um so the Xbox 360 if you didn't know has been redesigned a few months ago um it's basically a lot smaller runs quieter has built in Wi-Fi and it's going to be a lot more reliable so hopefully a lot of the past problems as far as old Xboxes you know dying and having a lot of issues has been resolved with this new model I think that's going to be a big sell I think that's going to that's a that's a really nice upgrade but on top of that it's going to be Connect Now connect is a motion sensing add-on for the Xbox 360 uh basically it looks kind of like a large webcam or something basically you set underneath your TV or on top and it will actually motion track you just solely using the camera um it's some really nice Tech it doesn't always work the best however they're constantly improving it and even as is it is really quite impressive so definitely if you're looking for video game systems and video game you accessories and that kind of stuff stuff definitely look for the Xbox 360 and connect uh you can get them in bundles to save some money depending on if you already have an Xbox all that kind of stuff so we definitely look at that uh now continuing on with the video game systems another thing I would definitely go ahead and keep an eye out for is the PlayStation Move and now personally I kind of prefer connect as as as well as the Xbox 360 PlayStation Move definitely does have some things going for it uh so if you ever played the Wii you know with the uh handheld motion controls PlayStation Move is very similar to that you do have you know it's control in one hand sometimes games need more than one controller um you can go ahead and play you know there's all kinds of motion controls uh you know there's bowling but there's also some kinds of stuff that's more you know precise than what you might find on the Wii um overall though I think if you already have a PlayStation 3 the move would be a pretty good idea if you don't have a PlayStation 3 I don't think the move is worth it by itself to you know to go ahead and justify the cost of buying a brand new PlayStation 3 um but it's definitely a nice little add-on uh so the next thing I'm going to be taking a look at today is these camera side so of course cameras cam quarters those are always big sellers every year and I'll go ahead and take a look at one major one that I like which is the Sony bloggy touch uh so the Sony bloggy touch which is a fantastic name I know um is really something that's underrated in my opinion and it's actually probably one of the best can quarters that you can get on a fairly short budget um so depending on how the price uh depending on where you get it anywhere from $180 to $200 so it's definitely in that low price point where you might you know competitors would be the flip minnow or something like that however the bloggy touch has a lot going for it um so as the name suggests it does have a touchcreen um but some of the things that I like about it is that the touchcreen isn't just a gimmick I mean the touch screen is actually genuinely useful um you know it saves a lot of the space of having to have buttons and dials and everything which if it was you know more professional yeah that would be a problem but for something very simple you know it's just you know basically just touch the screen hit record do you know to do the basic stuff the touch is a great great idea um but to couple that with some really high quality video um you know for the size of it very very impressive video as well as a great great thin form factor I mean this thing is very very small it's built well and overall I have no problems whatsoever if you're in the market for a you know a moderate P camcorder the Sony bloggy touch is definitely something I recommend to take a look at um so now let's go and move on to something that you could sort of consider a camcorder you can consider a lot of things which is the iPod Touch fourth generation uh now the iPod Touch has recently been upgraded with a lot of new things such as a much much nicer looking screen and two cameras um so while the Sony bloggy touch if you're just getting something solely for you know video recording uh you know that's definitely going to be the way to go however for not too much more you can go ahead and get an iPod Touch which not only shoots video takes pictures but it also does so much more obviously you know you have the full touch screen you can play video games you can check the internet your email um you know the iPod touch and obviously since it's an iPod it does you can listen to music um so the iPod Touch fourth generation probably going to be one of the biggest things this holiday season um it's just just because it's just a jack of all trades it does so much now of course it might not be the perfect thing in every little category um but you know if you were wanting to get the same functionality that does everything that the iPod Touch does You' be probably be grabbing 10 different gadgets to pill your pockets and nobody wants to do that um so now go ahead and move on to just a couple more things that I kind of like for this holiday season the next thing is going to Google TV now if you haven't heard of Google TV it's definitely something I recommend that you check out um Google TV it's basically like a uh a new sort of way of watching TV um so the way you can do this and there are several different models some actually are built into the TV um you can also get one with a built-in Blu-ray player or just a standalone box very similar to what you might find from your cable or satellite company however it gives you a lot of added functionality so with the Google TV hooked up not only can you watch TV just as you normally would with all your standard you know cable or satellite channels however you have really enhanced web integration so for example one of the major things about this let's say you're watching a TV show maybe watching an infomercial that you know you like something about the infomercial where you want to look it up well all you need to do is press the button on your remote and you will go ahead push the TV off to the side and now you can go ahead and have full access to the entire internet um and that's just one small little thing you can go ahead and have apps you can do all kinds of stuff straight from your TV so for that reason while not perfect yet uh of course you know it's a brand new technology Google TV I definitely see it taking off and it's a great idea for this holiday season um so the last thing is probably going to be one of the more obvious things that you would expect and probably going to be you know just sell just millions and millions of them is the Apple iPad uh now obviously the iPad has been out for about six months or so maybe a little bit more I don't know exactly when it came out but uh the iPad was you know just a huge huge seller it's of course it's Apple's tablet and it's probably the best tablet available on the market um so basically what you can do with the iPad it's very similar to what you might be able to do with an iPhone or iPod Touch however on a much larger scale um so anyone who's ever used a smartphone or iPod or iPhone um knows that it can do a lot such as emails web browsing Etc however if you expand it about much larger to something that's it's it's it's going to be a much larger size than your small screen it allows you to do so much more and for that reason I definitely would recommend that if you're in the market for a really expensive gift but it's going to be you know almost as on par with replacing a laptop the iPad is going to be a great way to go okay so for the second segment of D3 live we'll be taking live questions um so as always with every episode of D3 live it's all filmed in front of Blog TV and we've got quite a few people in here at now so let's go ahead and just take some questions do I think the iPhone 5 will be the biggest product of 2011 uh you know that's actually a pretty good question um you know iPhones are always huge Apple you know any any Apple product is always huge um but you know I think it's just a little too far out to really predict too much about what we're going to see on the iPhone 5 um now if you're interested I have made a previous D3 live episode about it however a lot of that stuff is mostly just what we'd expect and really I think it's just a little too early to say um is the iPad 2 coming out soon when and what features uh now that's a little bit closer uh the iPad 2 is most likely going to be coming out in the next few months a lot of people are saying somewhere maybe like February March April sometime in that time frame uh which definitely does make sense in my opinion um as far as the features go I think it's going to be a moderate upgrade uh I definitely would expect to see some cameras on it the very least a FaceTime camera um but i' also expect to see a lot faster processor so probably something like the Apple A5 chip or something like that uh I I just expect to see the iPad 2 I don't think it'll be some you know insane upgrade I think it's going to be mostly the same but I think that there will be a lot of nice improvements in it um will the iPad go down on Black Friday um in case you if uh some of you aren't from the United States you won't know but uh every every the Friday after Thanksgiving there's going to be there's a huge sale all kinds of stores you know drop their prices uh tremendously um as far as you know what kind of products you get you know it's really hard to say uh most if you're interested you can go ahead there are a lot of websites that are specifically about you know how to find the best deals and everything um in general I wouldn't expect Apple products to be discounted too much but absolutely is definitely a possibility um if there's an iPod Touch fifth gener generation what features are new and when will it come out um as far as the iPod Touch fifth generation I really wouldn't look for that uh the fourth generation just came out in September and apple updates their their iPods every September so obviously we're not going to go ahead and see a new iPod Touch for close to a year now so as far as features and as far as when it'll come out I really wouldn't worry about that it'll probably be the better part of a year before we see that so if you're thinking about getting one now would be absolutely a great time um what is my opinion of Google TV uh well obviously I did just touch on this a little bit earlier but um overall I like the idea and the concept of Google TV um I think it's got a great idea obviously for a very long time you know when you get on your TV you turn it on you flip through channels that's all you do um but now with Google TV and of course there are a lot of other sorts of things like this to try to get more interactive stuff on your TV I think it's really going to kick off a new generation of TV and personally I'm really looking forward to it I think that you know having the idea of being able to stream your favorite content watch YouTube um sech the internet and do all this stuff straight from your TV is a great idea now I do know that Google TV is not perfect right now um you know there's there's a few issues however for the most part I think that you know it's still a great investment right now and especially if you want to wait you know like a few months a year especially if you wanted to wait a full year that would give them a lot of time to Iron out some of the Kinks uh make it a little bit faster and all that kind of stuff but overall very uh I'm very definitely looking forward to Google TV um is the iPad is the Galaxy Tab a good gift um the Galaxy Tab if you don't know it is a Samsung Android tablet uh basically it's somewhat similar to the iPad although it does run the uh the kind of the competing Android uh operating system um the Galaxy Tab is not too bad in my opinion I do kind of like it but really for the most part I just can't recommend buying it over the iPad um it does have some additional features it does have camera which obviously the iPad does not have and it does have a much smaller form factor of a 7in screen which definitely is very much like you can actually hold it in one hand rather than the iPad which is much larger however overall I do like the iPad I mean it's got a better operating system in my opinion as far as you know it's very very clean simple and it it's really very well purpose built for the iPad so you know uh unlike the Galaxy Tab which has Android which is pretty much just basically made for your phone and it's kind of just jumbled together to make it look for work for the bigger screen um Apple really did it right as far as blowing up the iPhone operating system for the iPad um now not to say anything bad against the Galaxy Tab you know if I was buying two tablets you know had to pick two the G tab would absolutely be the second one it's probably the second best tablet available however the iPad is still better in my opinion so if you're wanting to spend that money I would definitely go with the iPad uh Galaxy Tab versus Playbook versus iPad versus HP Slate um you know that's kind of a hard question um I really am looking forward to the Blackberry play Playbook which is yet another tablet uh that will actually be be released sometime early next year um but I think it's kind of a hard comparison to make just because you know if you fast forward six months or so we're going to have a lot of new tablets we'll have a new iPad we'll have the Playbook we'll have a lot of new tablet so it's kind of hard to you know to judge from right now and the game will be entirely different here in six months or so um iPod judge 4 generation or the iPad um that's that's that's that's kind of a hard question I mean it depends on what you need I mean if you need an iPod something that's going to be really small will'll fit in your pocket it can do all the kinds of different stuff you need definitely go for the iPod however if you don't really need something that small especially you already have an iPhone or some sort of equivalent smartphone um the iPad's probably going to be the way to go just because it does it's so much larger and it does allow you to get more done you know just with that larger screen should have a nice size keyboard and you actually go ahead and do a little bit more so I would probably go with the iPad however you know it just really does depend on you know what you need um which game's console is better Xbox 360 or Playstation 3 uh now that question I'm not going to touch uh you know there are definitely big big advantages and disadvantages to both consoles uh personally you know I think you know a lot of people would do great if they had both you know if you could go ahead and get both that would be you know the Best of Both Worlds um however if you have to pick one the Xbox in my opinion by a very very slight margin um the PlayStation 3 is great has a lot of really great features such as Blu-ray that is totally absent in the Xbox 3 360 however I just prefer the game Library the Xbox 360 I do like the the fact that it does have connect in general a lot of times you know the Xbox can be quite a bit cheaper especially if you go for the 4 gigabyte version uh so anyway guys that's it for this episode of D3 live I definitely like to thank you all for watching and if you're interested in seeing more feel free to subscribe I do these every Saturday at 3:00 Eastern time so you can go ahead and come on by and can watch the show live
