In this video I take a first look at the highly anticipated HP / Palm webOS tablet, codenamed TouchPad. Both tablets are set to run HP webOS with a design that clearly takes a lot of inspiration from the Palm Pre.

The Topaz sports a 9 inch display whereas the Opal is set to launch with a 7 inch screen. Both tablets should have similar features including a buttonless design, instead relying on a gesture area that resides in the bezel. They also will contain a front facing camera, three speakers for a premium audio experience and a MicroUSB port.

The release date is yet to be confirmed however it seems likely that the Opal will be ready for a September 2011 date in three configurations: Wi-Fi only, AT&T 3G and Verizon 4G.

But in a story from the very edge of medical possibility, operatic soprano Charity Tillemann-Dick tells a double story of survival — of her body, from a double lung transplant — and of her spirit, fueled by an unwavering will to sing. A powerful story from TEDMED 2011.

http://www.ted.com Days before this talk, journalist Naomi Klein was on a boat in the Gulf of Mexico, looking at the catastrophic results of BP’s risky pursuit of oil. Our societies have become addicted to extreme risk in finding new energy, new financial instruments and more … and too often, we’re left to clean up a mess afterward. Klein’s question: What’s the backup plan?

In this video I take a look at Google Books as part of my three way comparison to decide the best iPhone and iPod touch eBook app.

Google Books is a newcomer to the eBook scene but it brings with it an enormous library of free titles as well as a decent selection of paid books. Google Books is heavily dependent on the web to download your books and keep them synced however it’s somewhat underwhelming interface has it’s drawbacks.
