Tonino Lamborghini, an Italian based company of shades and watches accused Globe Telecommunications 'Tonino Lamborghini' Tattoo broadband as fake. As stated on the press release posted and signed by Tonino Lamborghini, the CEO of the company,

"Tonino Lamborghini, an Italy-based company which is the sole lawful owner worldwide of the trademark 'Tonino Lamborghini' wishes to inform its customers that unauthorized people are currently trading online and through Globe stores '4G Tattoo Tonino Lamborghini' broadband stick which is a counterfeited product."

"Tonino Lamborghini s.r.l. has never manufactured or authorized anyone to manufacture such a product, which constitutes therefore a serious trademark infringement," Lamborghini said in the statement, which was posted in the Italy-based company's website and in several blogs.

Moreover the advertising campaign 'Feed your Need for Speed' featuring Marlon Stockinger, first Filipino to win a formula race in Europe, is deceitful and unlawful since it leads to a serious likelihood of confusion between two different and separate brands and businesses that is to say 'Tonino Lamborghini' and 'Automobili Lamborghini,'" he added.

Tonino Lamborghini s.r.l. shall take any legal action to protect the brand."

Globe is not giving their official statements yet regarding the issue.

Meanwhile, Tonino Lamborghini and Automobili Lamborghini are two different companies. Tonino is a luxury brand of watches, shades, among others while Automobili is a company which sells automotive related goods like sports car.

Motorola Xoom vs iPad vs PlayBook

The New Technology From Motorolla.

When the Motorola Xoom and BlackBerry PlayBook hit the market, we'll have two serious challengers to the iPad.

And, perhaps most interestingly, all three will be running different operating systems. So let's compare how the two newcomers stack up against the hottest tablet yet released.

In terms of releases, Motorola won't say anything about the Xoom's UK release date, though it is pencilled in for the first quarter of 2011 in the US. However, it depends on when Google is planning on getting Honeycomb out the door.

OS

This is the biggest difference between the three tablets. The iPad runs Apple's own iOS, the Moto Xoom Android 3.0 Honeycomb and the BlackBerry PlayBook runs RIM's own bespoke Tablet OS. The Xoom was the main unit used to demo Android 3.0 Honeycomb, at this year's Consumer Electronics Show, though we only saw videos of OS features running on the new device.

Android 3.0 rumours and latest updates

ANDROID 3.0: This Xoom was just running a video, but the real Honeycomb looks special

There will also be no Motorola MotoBlur interface overlaying Android 3.0 – this could be part of a bigger move by Google to stop having so many variants of Android.

We got hands on with the BlackBerry PlayBookat CES a few weeks ago and it's a serious threat to the iPad's dominance of the sector. TechRadar's Reviews Editor James Rivington says the PlayBook "could well be the tablet that changes the game. In a word, it's a triumph."

Processor

All three units use ARM-based silicon. The iPad runs Apple's own A4 processor clocked at 1GHz (it's less in the iPhone 4), while the Xoom plumps for a dual-core Nvida Tegra 2 processor, capable of 720p video or sending 1080p full HD to your TV via HDMI. The PlayBook is also running a dual core 1GHz Cortex-A9-based processor, though there are no more details on who has manufactured it. It's probably an Nvidia Tegra 2.

Touchcreen

The Motorola Xoom has a 10.1-inch, 1280 x 800 display. The PlayBook is only a 7-inch tablet and to us it can feel small. The touch on the PlayBook does extend right across the bezel though, which is a nice touch and pretty important for navigating around the OS.

The screens on both the PlayBook and Xoom look pretty spectacular even under the bright show lights where we checked them out. The PlayBook'ssize gives it an advantage though, as we said in our hands on:

"The PlayBook's 1024 x 600 resolution isn't far off the 9.7-inch 1024x768 iPad, but because of the Playbook's 7-inch display, the increased pixel density makes all the difference. It's sharp and crisp, and 1080p HD video looks fabulous."

Facebook Comment Button disappeared - replaced by Enter key

The Facebook comment in Facebook wall posts has disappeared. This is part of Facebook's innovations in faster comment post processing. Instead of pressing the "comment" button below, it was replaced by a phrase "Post Enter to post your comment".

These changes raised so many questions to some Facebook users around the globe. Some of the most common questions are:


Where can I find the comment button?

You cannot find the comment button because it has been replaced by a much easier feature - "Pressing the enter key"

How I can post comment in new line?

You can post the comment in the next line by pressing Shift + enter. Make sure that all your comments are final before pressing the enter key

Some of the users also raised their comments about this new feature. Tracy Saulters, a facebook member said:

I'm finding this very frustrating. I can't find any information on how to correct it. With mine the comment field that I'm reading from others and my own comment field runs off the page, if I try to post a comment by pressing Enter that doesn't work. For some unknown reason occassionaly it seems to reset itself and the format goes back to normal but only while I'm in facebook for that particular time, when I go in next time the comment field is off the page again. I will try Ctrl + Enter but that is a very limited solution to this problem.

The answer to these queries were explained above.

Facebook is continuously innovating its features time by time. Months from now, a picture viewer for higher resolution images was released, a synchronized font size for all Facebook texts and now, the elimination of comment button for user's posts.
