The online retailer has an exclusive Anniversary Edition of the game up for pre-order, which comes bundled with a 17-week pass for both Madden Ultimate Team cards and computer and mobile access to <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/08/30/directv-nfl-sunday-ticket-ps3/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">NFL Sunday Ticket</a>. On top of getting all the 2013 regular season's out-of-market matches, DirecTV subscribers can also snag a $10-a-month discount on the TV version (normally $225) for one year with a pro bono MAX upgrade. <em>Joystiq</em> notes that only 100,000 copies are up for grabs, split evenly between the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions. All it takes to get in on the action starting August 27th is $100 -- $40 more than the standard edition, which can net you up to $400 in total savings on the services.

Now it turns out we won't have to wait for the new hardware to experience that feature on a console -- Steam, for example, does this on PCs with some games -- as <em>The Last of Us</em> leaders Bruce Straley and Neil Druckman told<em> Game Informer</em> the PS3 game will be available as a download the same day it arrives on discs, and is playable once the transfer is 50 percent complete. There's no word whether other developers will have access to the "magic" Naughty Dog worked out with Sony to make it happen, but as least there will be as little delay as possible before you begin exploring its post-apocalyptic landscape June 14th.</p> <p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/gaming/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Gaming</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/hd/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">HD</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/sony/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Sony</a></p> <p><strong><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/18/the-last-of-us-play-while-downloading-ps3/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget#comments">Comments</a></strong></p> <p><strong>Via:</strong> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.joystiq.com/2013/05/17/last-of-us-digital-version-playable-when-halfway-downloaded/">Joystiq</a><!--//--></p> <p><strong>Source:</strong> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2013/05/16/the-last-of-us-will-release-be-released-digitally-same-day-as-retail.aspx">Game Informer</a><!--//--></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~4/xWk-cKGbABU" height="1" width="1"/> hdpostcrosssony Sat, 18 May 2013 11:27:00 -0400 21|20574659 http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/18/the-last-of-us-play-while-downloading-ps3/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_campaign=Engadget http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~3/XztiuvF_y2A/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/18/google-media-streamer-h2g2-42-h840/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/18/google-media-streamer-h2g2-42-h840/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget#comments <p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/18/google-media-streamer-h2g2-42-h840/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img alt="Googlebuilt media streamer hits the FCC, reveals only a Hitchhiker's Guide reference" data-src-height="308" data-src-width="620" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/h2g2-42-fcc.jpg" /></a></p> <p>With much of its information obscured it's hard to say what Google has planned for this new device revealed by its FCC filing, but the model number at least indicates someone has a sense of humor.

It now has the sole unlimited subscription streaming rights to the previous seasons of five NBCUniversal shows. The highlight could be <em>Hannibal</em>, which will reach the service later this year; gamers may also like the crossover SyFy series <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/15/must-see-hdtv-april-15th-21st/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><em>Defiance</em></a>, which should be ready in early 2014. Those who just can't wait to stream something will get their fill through exclusives for <em>Covert Affairs</em>, <em>Grimm</em> and <em>Suits</em>, all of which are in the catalog today. Amazon isn't completely shutting out rivals like Netflix, however: its expanded NBCU deal includes regular deals for <em>Alphas</em>, <em>Eureka</em>, <em>Smash</em>, <em>Warehouse 13</em> and a collection of children's shows destined for <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/12/05/amazon-kindle-freetime-unlimited/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Kindle FreeTime Unlimited</a>.

The CW already has ad supported full episode streaming on several platforms including iOS and Android, Windows 8 and it <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/24/the-cw-xbox-360-app/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">launched last month on the Xbox 360</a> (pictured above). Pedowitz indicated the network is working to reach more viewers on more platforms, so Apple TV is probably not the last. In a note to <em>MacRumors</em> The CW confirmed it will mirror the experience on other platforms, with episodes available the day after they air, no cable TV authentication required and supported by advertisements.

Now, in an effort to make life on the couch a little less complicated for subscribers, the Rethink Possible network is introducing an all-new On Demand storefront. With a focus on making content easier to discover, AT&amp;T says the UI will make for an intuitive way to navigate the menus. Additionally, you'll find some novel search tools that should make it easier to find movies and TV shows. <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/uverse/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">U-verse</a> customers will now also see a "My" section, allowing them to quickly access rentals, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/07/att-u-verse-tv-screen-pack-ondemand/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">queued up flicks</a> and promos that AT&amp;T may be offering.

Here, you get seven columns of tiles showing what's currently airing or what you've previously recorded. So whether you're in the mood for sports, prime time, movies, kids programming or whatever happens to be playing on your favorite channel, you're a tap away from watching it on your TV -- or directly on the iPad if you have <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/09/04/tivo-stream-transcoder-review/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">a TiVo Stream</a>. And of course you don't have to watch it right now; you can just as easily schedule a recording or season pass and watch it later.</p> <p>The new feature does seem handy, but configurable options are minimal. Basically, you're limited to rearranging the columns into a different order and filtering out specific sports you have little interest in -- no, you can't remove sports completely. Speaking of sports, thanks to TiVo's partnership with Thuuz, some sporting event tiles have a number between zero and a 100 assigned to them to help draw your attention to the most exciting matches currently in play. The new feature is available immediately via the App Store as an update to the existing TiVo application.<span><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/what-to-watch-now-on-tivo-app/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">What to Watch Now</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/what-to-watch-now-on-tivo-app/5884681?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/tivowhat1lg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/what-to-watch-now-on-tivo-app/5884679?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/tivowhat3lg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/what-to-watch-now-on-tivo-app/5884680?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/tivowhat4lg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.engadget.com/photos/what-to-watch-now-on-tivo-app/5884682?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/tivowhat2lg_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></span></p> <p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/home-entertainment/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Home Entertainment</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/hd/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">HD</a></p> <p><strong><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/16/tivo-brings-what-to-watch-now-feature-to-its-ipad-app/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget#comments">Comments</a></strong></p> <p><strong>Source:</strong> <a target="_blank" href="http://blog.tivo.com/2013/05/what-to-watch-now-for-ipad-now-available/">TiVo Blog</a><!--//-->, <a target="_blank" href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/tivo/id401673976?mt=8">iTunes</a><!--//--></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~4/e-jZxt3p1Wo" height="1" width="1"/> hdpostcrossiPadTiVoWhatToWatchNow Thu, 16 May 2013 12:21:00 -0400 21|20571841 http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/16/tivo-brings-what-to-watch-now-feature-to-its-ipad-app/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_campaign=Engadget http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~3/n2SQC-duOBk/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/16/engadget-giveaway-casis-patch/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/16/engadget-giveaway-casis-patch/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget#comments <p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/16/engadget-giveaway-casis-patch/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img alt="" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/03/arkpatch.jpg" /></a></p> <p>Remember CASIS, the folks in charge of granting the public access to the national lab onboard the International Space Station, who were looking for the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/03/09/casis-masschallenge-startup-accelerator-space-research-iss/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">next great research project</a> to send into space?

We got a look at TCL's custom-skinned MoVo Google TV platform and 4K TVs <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/10/tcl-ces-2013-movo-google-tv-110-inch-uhd-4k-iron-man/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">separately at CES</a> (pictured above, and in the gallery) so it only makes sense they'll be combining the two. Part of TCL's MoVo customizations include a motion sensor to recognize each user and personalize offerings based on their habits. Called Personal Box Office (PBO) or "Lazy TV" searches the available content and makes a recommendation without the need for a remote or even voice command. The press release indicates it will be available "later this year" although whether that includes a US release like <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/15/seiki-offcially-prices-its-50-inch-4k-tv-at-1500-for-late-april/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Seiki's 50-inch Ultra HD set</a> remains to be seen.

What's more, it also says that it's "refactored" Google TV so that its OEMs can update their devices to future versions of Android faster than they're currently able to -- in a "matter of weeks rather than months," according to Google. Likewise, Chrome for Google TV will now be on the same six week upgrade cycle as its desktop counterpart going forward, and it'll also now come with support for hardware-based content protection.</p> <p>As for those with existing Google TV devices, though, the company's only saying that they can expect to see updates in the "coming months." We've yet to hear from most Google TV manufacturers themselves yet, but LG has chimed in to say that it will be updating its devices to Jelly Bean sometime in the third quarter of this year. You can get a look at what the update will bring in the video after the break showing off high performance apps enabled by NDK support, and an LG remote control app that has two-handed control for games and updates reflecting the action on-screen.</p> <p><strong>Update</strong>: Some have asked what this means for the future of Flash on Google TV. We've confirmed with Google that this does mean the end of Flash on Google TV since it's no longer supported on the newer versions of Android, and the build that was in Google TV was already out of date. The update will bring more enhancements to HTML5 streaming and interactive content -- hopefully the sites some users frequent will expand their technology platforms just as quickly.</p> <p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/home-entertainment/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Home Entertainment</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/hd/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">HD</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/google/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/lg/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">LG</a></p> <p><strong><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/15/google-tv-android-chrome-update/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget#comments">Comments</a></strong></p> <p><strong>Source:</strong> <a target="_blank" href="https://plus.google.com/112249225796277470583/posts/X5rmq6Yu8xG">Google TV Developers</a><!--//-->, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.lgnewsroom.com/newsroom/contents/63448">LG</a><!--//--></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~4/CYvrLftmdwA" height="1" width="1"/> androidandroid4.2chromegooglegoogleio2013googletvhdpostcrossjellybeanlgvideo Wed, 15 May 2013 17:02:00 -0400 21|20570952 http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/15/google-tv-android-chrome-update/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_campaign=Engadget http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~3/LcoqD7KjPRs/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/15/bang-and-olufsen-beolab-14-surround-speakers/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/15/bang-and-olufsen-beolab-14-surround-speakers/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget#comments <p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"><img alt="Bang &amp; Olufsen intros Beolab 14 surround speakers, considered 'entry-level' at $3,995" data-src-height="413" data-src-width="619" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/dsc05137-1368635269.jpg" /></p> <p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/bangandolufsen/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Bang &amp; Olufsen</a> has been known to occasionally <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/09/bang-and-olufsen-beoplay-h3-h6/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">lower the price floor</a> on its line of A/V gear.

The Frostbite website details the initiative as "Frostbite Go," and calls it "one of our most exciting current projects."</p> <p>Without directly saying "Frostbite 3," the blurb details Frostbite Go as aimed at "empowering EA game developers" -- in so many words, it sounds like Frostbite Go isn't meant for indies as much as it's meant for EA studios used to working with Frostbite. <em>Battlefield 4</em> will be the first game from EA to launch using the latest iteration of Frostbite, which isn't a huge surprise considering that <em>BF4</em>'s developed by the same folks who develop the engine (EA DICE).

Available on the web and as an iOS or Kindle Fire app in place of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/03/abc-player-for-ipad-updated-3g-streaming-is-a-go/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">old ABC Player</a>, it still offers video on-demand playback of the network's shows, but is the first to add live network TV streaming in those two areas. It will require customers to log in with their cable / satellite TV account details (Comcast, Cablevision, Cox, Charter, Midcontinent and AT&amp;T U-verse are all signed up already) for access starting July 1st, but for now there's no such restriction. ABC is promising a launch in all ABC-owned station markets by the start of the fall broadcast season, though most areas will need to wait for agreements with their local affiliates.</p> <p>Currently scheduled for launch after July 1st are Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, Houston, Raleigh-Durham and Fresno, while Hearst Television has already signed on to launch streaming in its 13 markets as well. The app itself should resemble the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/watchespn/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">WatchESPN</a> and Watch Disney services we've seen roll out previously, and AirPlay streaming is disabled. The press release mentions Kindle Fire support, though we didn't see it in the Appstore yet, and it's coming to Samsung Galaxy devices "soon." There aren't any other Android devices mentioned, but hopefully more platforms will follow quickly. Hit the source links below for the app or to watch on the web, and there's a press release after the break with more details.</p> <p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/home-entertainment/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Home Entertainment</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/internet/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Internet</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/hd/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">HD</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/mobile/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Mobile</a></p> <p><strong><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/watch-abc-launches-live-tv-streaming-philadelphia-nyc/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget#comments">Comments</a></strong></p> <p><strong>Source:</strong> <a target="_blank" href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/watch-abc/id364191819">iTunes</a><!--//-->, <a target="_blank" href="http://watchabc.go.com/">WatchABC.go.com</a><!--//--></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~4/UqPju91xrYI" height="1" width="1"/> abcabc.comapplehdpostcrossioslivetvLiveTvStreamingmobilepostcrossplayerstreamingwatchabc Tue, 14 May 2013 12:35:00 -0400 21|20568367 http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/watch-abc-launches-live-tv-streaming-philadelphia-nyc/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_campaign=Engadget http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~3/yh_OFCdngA8/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/netflix-keeps-its-lead-in-streaming-video-use-at-home/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/netflix-keeps-its-lead-in-streaming-video-use-at-home/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget#comments <p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/netflix-keeps-its-lead-in-streaming-video-use-at-home/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img alt="Netflix keeps its lead in streaming video use at home, YouTube rules the road" data-src-height="433" data-src-width="619" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/sandvine-mar-2013-atd.jpg" /></a></p> <p>When we last checked in with Sandvine's stat trackers, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/11/08/sandvine-netflix-29-percent-of-north-american-internet-traffic/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Netflix reigned supreme</a> in online video traffic at home, especially downstream. It's still sitting pretty several months later, Sandvine tells <em>AllThingsD</em>. Quite possibly helped by the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/01/netflix-streaming-house-of-cards-premiere-free/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><em>House of Cards</em> debut</a>, Netflix kept a healthy lead at 32.3 percent of downstream use on wired networks this past March. That's no mean feat when some of its competition took big strides forward -- YouTube jumped up to 17.1 percent, and Hulu likely rode sweeps season to get 2.4 percent.</p> <p>In mobile, it's a different story. Netflix use on cellular almost doubled to 4 percent, but YouTube kept an uncontested lead at 27.3 percent of downstream use. It's not hard to see why after looking at other video formats people prefer on the road: raw HTTP video (19.2 percent) and Facebook (8.6 percent) were the next-closest, which suggests that many still grab snack-sized videos on their phones instead of full movies or TV shows. We don't expect the status quo to budge much in the near future, whether it's on mobile or a fixed-line. Without major initiatives from veterans or the arrival of a new upstart, it isn't clear just what would rock the boat.</p> <p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/home-entertainment/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Home Entertainment</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/internet/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Internet</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/hd/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">HD</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/google/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/facebook/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Facebook</a></p> <p><strong><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/netflix-keeps-its-lead-in-streaming-video-use-at-home/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget#comments">Comments</a></strong></p> <p><strong>Via:</strong> <a target="_blank" href="http://allthingsd.com/20130514/netflix-still-eats-a-third-of-the-web-every-night-amazon-hbo-and-hulu-trail-behind/">AllThingsD</a><!--//--></p> <p><strong>Source:</strong> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.sandvine.com/news/pr_detail.asp?ID=431">Sandvine</a><!--//--></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~4/yh_OFCdngA8" height="1" width="1"/> facebookgooglehdpostcrosshouseofcardshttpinternetnetflixsandvinestreamingstreamingvideoyoutube Tue, 14 May 2013 11:36:00 -0400 21|20567968 http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/netflix-keeps-its-lead-in-streaming-video-use-at-home/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_campaign=Engadget http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~3/0mdSjvlJKSo/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/engadget-giveaway-otterbox/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/engadget-giveaway-otterbox/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget#comments <p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/engadget-giveaway-otterbox/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img alt="Engadget Giveaway win a Samsung Galaxy S 4 on AT&amp;T, courtesy of Otterbox!" data-src-height="450" data-src-width="276" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/gs4otter.jpg" /></a></p> <p>See that package above? That phone-and-case combo could find a home in your hand, thanks to <a href="http://www.OtterBox.com">Otterbox</a>. The company, which is well known for its durable cases, has an AT&amp;T-branded Samsung <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/04/24/samsung-galaxy-s-4-review/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">Galaxy S 4</a> to hand out to one of our lucky readers! Additionally, the grand prize winner -- along with a runner-up -- will receive one Defender case (valued at $50) and one Commuter case (valued at $35) specifically designed for the GS4. The phone is locked and doesn't come with service, so those of you who aren't AT&amp;T fans may need to get creative with it. Hit up the Rafflecopter widget below to enter, and good luck!</p> <p><strong>Note:</strong> Because the GS4 is locked to a US carrier, this week's giveaway is unfortunately limited to our US readers. We should have some Canadian and UK giveaways coming up in the near future, however, so stay tuned!</p> <p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/announcements/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Announcements</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/hd/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">HD</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/mobile/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Mobile</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/alt/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Alt</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/samsung/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget" rel="tag">Samsung</a></p> <p><strong><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/engadget-giveaway-otterbox/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget#comments">Comments</a></strong></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~4/0mdSjvlJKSo" height="1" width="1"/> contestengadgetgiveawayfeaturedgiveawayhdpostcrossmobilepostcrossotterboxsamsungsamsunggs4 Tue, 14 May 2013 11:00:00 -0400 21|20565426 http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/engadget-giveaway-otterbox/?utm_medium=feed&utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_campaign=Engadget http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/EngadgetHd/~3/Ma0Jj34wlxk/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/aereo-atlanta-rollout-june-17/ http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/aereo-atlanta-rollout-june-17/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Engadget#comments <p class="image-container" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/14/aereo-atlanta-rollout-june-17/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget"><img alt="" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/aereo-tv.jpg" /></a></p> <p>It's still a long way from the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2013/01/08/aereo-more-cities-2013/?utm_source=Feed_Classic&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Engadget">22 cities</a> it hopes to launch in this year, but Aereo's expansion of its live TV streaming service beyond its NYC base is now moving steadily ahead.
