You're not just a sports fan--you're a sports fanatic. You want the latest news and scuttlebutt on all your favorite teams, and you want it now, as soon as it breaks. You want SportCaster Pro for Android.

Tweet Tweet

Getting your sports news and information from the paper (what's that?), electronic media (mainstream and slow), or the Web (cluttered and behind) is so 2009. These days, the action is on Twitter, where the writers, players, and coaches communicate directly with the fans and everyone can join in the conversation.

"Hey, Did You Hear?"

SportCaster Pro is an app that connects you directly with this brave new world, bringing you live college and pro sports with a social voice. Got a favorite NFL team? The app lets you flag the team (or teams, if you divide your loyalties) and then generates a Twitter feed with everything related to that team. This includes journalists, bloggers, fans, and those connected directly to the team, all commenting before, during, and after games. Or you can limit the feed to specific hashtags that you enter.

You can also follow a general Twitter feed for the NFL, college football, or a particular college conference. There's even a feed dedicated to tweets by the best fantasy sports experts. Never miss breaking news and be the first among your friends to know what's going on.

Chime In

What could be better than this? How about being able to participate in the discussion without ever leaving the app? When you've got something to say, just hit Compose and share your insights with the world. Easily attach a photo or a video to your tweet. You can also tap on any tweet to reply, retweet, comment, or view the tweeter's profile. Want to pass along news or analysis to your friends? Share a tweet via text message, e-mail, or social networking sites.

Scoreboard, Baby

Of course, SportCaster also features a week-by-week game schedule and brings you all the latest scores and stats, including game recaps, box scores, standings, and rankings. When you tap on a score, you call up a screen that contains this info, but it also has a conversation button so you can see what people are saying about the action in real time. It's like watching the game with a group of very passionate, knowledgeable people--a social scoreboard, as it were. If you love sports and sports talk, once you go SportCaster, you'll never go back.

Note: SportCaster Pro launches with support for both pro and college football. Future versions will include pro and college basketball, hockey, and baseball as those sports begin their upcoming seasons.

Taking digital notes has never been so easy

Clean and clear graphical interface

You're in an important meeting or lecture when suddenly you realize--you forgot your pen or notebook! Or you're at a party and need to take down a phone number or an e-mail address. Don't trust your memory or try to scribble on a dry-cleaning receipt; the Handrite Note app is the solution you need.

The Write Move

Rather than trying to frantically type notes on your device keyboard, Handrite Note allows you to write with your finger right on your Android's screen. Each time you lift your finger, the character or symbol you wrote appears in the notebook interface. When you finish a word, just hit the space bar icon at the bottom of the screen. Hit Return if you want to move down to the next line. If you make a mistake, there's a simple backspace button to delete as many characters as you need to. You can also cut and paste with ease.

Handrite Note doesn't try to "read" your handwriting. Rather, it replicates exactly what you trace on the screen, as with a drawing program. This avoids the pain of having to "train" the app to read your writing, and the inevitable mistakes that occur. It also means you can sketch symbols, numbers, pictures, mathematical equations--whatever you write is instantly recorded digitally for later reference. And notes are saved automatically.

Right at Hand

You know how it goes: you write something down on a slip of paper or pad, then misplace it or don't have it when you need it. Now you can have your notes with you at all times, whether you're on the beach or in the boardroom. The app's time stamp and labeling system allows you categorize, sort, and find your notes quickly and easily.

You can also export your notes with a few taps on the screen. Whether you want to save it to your SD card, send it to yourself or someone else in e-mail, tweet it, post it to Facebook, or another sharing method, a note doesn't have to remain tethered to your Android device. Export in either JPEG or PNG format.

Function and Form

Unlike many notepad applications, Handrite Note allows you to write in style. Create and save different types of "pens," adjusting line thickness and color to fit your needs. Then swap them in and out when needed. You can also choose from 14 different styles of "paper," including beautiful solid hues, notebook lines, and even graph paper. The size of your text and spacing are also adjustable, so you can customize them for easy readability. Make the right choice with Handrite Note for Android.
