New Technology Gadgets: Bada

Today Samsung releases beta 2 of their Bada SDK. You may now start creating your Bada apps and then deploy them on the first Bada phone – the S8500 Wave.
The SDK includes the IDE (integrated development environment), Simulator, UI builder, sample applications plus full documentation and tutorials.
The new UI framework provided with the SDK supports the latest TouchWiz, Adobe Flash, motion sensors, vibration and even face-detection.
With the new version of the SDK you will be able to deploy all the apps you create on the S8500 Wave. The first Bada phone is expected to hit the stores in the end of this month. We recently had a blast with it and its top-notch 720p video recording capabilities.
You can find more information about the SDK on the Bada developer website.

The Samsung S8500 Wave is one of the most eagerly anticipated devices of the season and its supposed availability has been keeping the mobile world on its toes since last week. But here we aren't going to discuss whether or not you can actually purchase the handset from those stores that claim to have it in stock.
Instead we will give you several camera samples that we created with the latest Samsung S8500 Wave unit that we received. It's not a final market-ready unit but it comes damn close, or at least so it seems from the photos and videos that we are about to show you.
As you know the Wave, the first Bada-running smartphone, captures 720p videos, which is all the rage these days. The nicely saturated colors and the good framerate (those are real 30fps, no duplicated frames gimmicks this time) make up for really pleasing results.
See for yourselves in the samples below.

We also took several 5 megapixel still shots with the Samsung S8500 Wave camera. The pleasing colors are again there for you to see, but the slightly too aggressive noise reduction takes its toll on the fine detail. Still this is only a pre-release unit, we might see further optimizations.
