As of today, Android owners running Honeycomb get to enjoy a tablet-optimized Google Docs app (download) featuring a better-functioning and better-looking three-panel view. With the enhanced tablet view, you can now navigate through filters and collections, view your documents list, and see document details all at once. What's more, the details panel on the right side of the screen gives you an instant thumbnail preview along with sharing and collaborator details before you even open the file.

Smash Bros., brought back and demade

With an improved user experience in mind, Nero's developers have reconstructed the suite with each of its main application's interfaces looking and feeling more consistent throughout. There's also a convenient new MediaBrowser, which gives users easy access to their libraries, as well as the now-included Nero Kwik Media, which acts as a sort of launchpad into any of the suite's 11 included programs.

Users of Nero's previous versions should find many of this suite's basic functions familiar. From editing to burning to sharing media, Nero can still do it all. But lucky for us, this newest release goes even further.

For instance, Nero Video now includes an Express Editing mode as well as more advanced features like picture-in-picture overlays. There's also LiveBackup, which provides automatic and continuo... [Read more]
