PING has launched a new app that includes the 'Golf
Workout', an Apple Watch feature engineered to capture
and track fitness data, swing tempo and on-course statistics.
The new app also houses updates to iPING, a putting-improvement tool that
attaches to a putter shaft using an iPING Cradle, and works in
conjunction with iPhone.
In addition, there’s a new PING trivia game created to
share the brand’s rich heritage and its focus on innovations that
help golfers play their best.
With the SwingSmart Golf Analyser ($250) and free app for
iPhone/iPad and Android devices, golfers have an easy tool to quickly improve
their swing anywhere, anytime.
Once the sensor module is attached to the club, the device
allows you to instantly view key statistics upon swinging the club with a 3D
swing view.
SwingSmart is consistently awarded top honors in independent
reviews of golf swing analysers and offers easy-to-understand feedback on every
swing, with every club, from driver to putter.
It quickly delivers key swing metrics in both numeric and
true 3D format, which can help every golfer truly see their swing and take the
mystery out of fixing it.
If you’re in business, having access to your desktop from
anywhere you happen to be increases the value of your tablet exponentially.
Splashtop 2 Remote gives you access to all of your files and programs,
including Keynote, Excel, Quicken, plus your favorite browsers, all with 100
percent compatibility. You can even stream video and access your entire media
library from your iPad, including 3D games. Your Splashtop account gives you
access to up to five computers.
The Bottom Line: This is the best selling remote access
app, and with good reason. There’s also an optional Anywhere Access Pack
($1.99/month, or $16.99 per year) which gives you global remote access via
Wi-Fi or 4G.

Now you’ve got your playoff hockey pool set up, it’s time to
make sure you don’t miss a game when you’re away from home or you can’t make it
to your favourite sports bar.
CBC’s Hockey app was updated this week so road warriors
don’t have to miss a game. And if you’re planning to travel outside of Canada,
SlingboxViewer is another option for keeping up with the Canucks or whatever
team is your favourite in the playoffs.
UPDATE: Rogers has updated its Rogers Live app to
include CBC’s Hockey Night in Canada livestreamed games but only for
smartphones.
iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, app is free, $9.99 for playoffs
live bundle
The app is free but if you want to see the games
livestreamed to your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad, you have to buy the games. The
in-app purchase include the playoffs-live bundle at $9.99 and the highlights
bundle, giving you access to live replays throughout the playoffs, at $5.99.
You can also buy single games for $2.99. Along with the games, the app also
delivers live box scores, stats and results, news updates, playoff schedules,
injury reports, blogs and other Hockey Night in Canada content. You can also
watch CBC hockey through a web browser on your computer, but note that the
games are only available for viewing if you’re in Canada. It’s the same for the
app.
Dan Tavares, executive producer at CBC Sports, said an
Android app is planned. “I just don’t know if it will get released in time.”
This was my go-to app when I was travelling during last
year’s playoffs and while the $29.99 price tag may seem steep, it paled compared
to our group’s bill at the Great Canadian Pub in Paris, the only place in that
city airing the Canucks games. You must also have a SlingBox hooked up to your
home TV, adding another $190 to your playoff bill for the Solo version and $270
for the Pro HD model. But hey, this is the playoffs.
Using your mobile device you can now watch your favorite
teams play in the NBA playoffs. Apps for Android and Apple devices are now
available for download so you do not have to miss games now that the regular
season has ended. There are many apps to choose from and some are free while
others will require a paid account. Here are some of the ways to stream NBA
games to your tablet or smartphone.
NBA League Pass offers an NBA live stream to viewers and you
can pay to subscribe to them. Using the NBA Game Time 2014 app you
can stream all of the playoff games, which will come in handy if some are not
available for broadcast in your area or if you simply want to watch them on the
go. For $50 you can stream the games regardless of whether you are an iPhone or
Android user. You pay $40 if you are a Sprint customer and if you want to
stream using your tablet you need to pay $130. If you want both it will cost
you $190 which allows you to get games on any of your devices.
You can also watch NBA games for free by using TNT OT, a
service being offered by TNT. It can be used for various devices, however, it
is not certain that all games will be available. On the plus side, you can
choose from four available angles in which to watch a game.
Alternatively, you can use apps such as WatchESPN. You can
download it for free and watch the games using the app if you are subscribed to
cable providers such as Cox, Dish Network, Comcast, Time Warner Cable, Google
Fiber and Verizon FiOS among others. This also means you can get access to NBA League
Pass free if you are subscribed to any of these cable services. Die hard NBA
fans that are always on the road can now enjoy watching their top teams play
using their handheld device.
