AT&T lighting up three LTE markets on April 8th, Indiana and Texas feel the glow
Muncie. Bloomington. Bryan-College Station. If you're in one of these three markets, get ready to party hard, because AT&T LTE is officially lighting up in your neck of the woods on April 8th. If you recall, there are nine previously announced markets still on deck waiting for their turn to bathe in the faster network, but AT&T is holding strong to its promise of an arrival "by early summer." For all of you getting it on Sunday, just make sure you party responsibly Saturday night, kay?
Ubisoft's Drawsome Tablet for Wii is cheaper than art lessons, probably about as fun (video)
If you miss the unbridled delight of messing around in Mario Paint, then the days of waiting for a modern solution may be over, thanks to Ubisoft's new Drawsome tablet for Wii. Unless, of course, you already picked up the THQ uDraw last year. On paper, it doesn't appear to be too dissimilar from THQ's offering -- you get a 6.5 x 5-inch drawing area and a stylus (unwired this time). Younger players can use the transparency layer to hold pictures of the teen-idol of choice for tracing -- masterpieces can then be transferred to an SD card. You'll also get two games: Drawsome Artist (where you can learn how to doodle Smurfs) and Sketch Quest, a four-player platformer where you build bridges to help the characters complete quests. No word on pricing (we don't expect it to cost more than the $70 uDraw) but it'll arrive in stores on December 6th, just in time for holiday shoppers to snatch them from the shelves. Catch the tablet in action after the break.
Ubisoft's 'Drawsome Tablet' coming to Wii on December 6
The "Project Intouch" tablet seen in a leaked Ubisoft video is now an official Ubisoft product. The Drawsome Tablet will be released on Wii (only in the US, for some reason) on December 6, packed with two games. Drawsome Artist is your basic drawing program, with the addition of both art tutorials and Smurfs. It features SD card saving for easy sharing of your creations. Drawsome Sketch Quest has up to four players draw missing parts of the environment to "help a variety of cute animals race through their world." As for the tablet itself, it includes a 6.5x5-inch drawing surface and a wireless stylus -- the competing uDraw is wired. Speaking of the competition, how irritated do you think Ubisoft was that THQ already took the "uDraw" name?
