The much anticipated Samsung Galaxy S4 will be unveiled on the 14^th in New York and we are pretty sure that as the time of announcement nears we will see plenty of leaks and rumors related to the handset. We also will see many teasers from Samsung such as the one that you see above, as the company needs to publicize its latest and greatest device as much as possible.

The new teaser invites the public to the Times Square where visitors will get to watch the livestream of the Samsung Unpacked event. But we don’t think Samsung wants you to go to there just to watch the event, you might even get hands on experience with the device as the invite also says “experience Samsung’s new flagship smartphone”.

An unveiling at the Radio City Music Hall along with a public event at Times Square will certainly give the device good publicity in the US, which is a very crucial market for Samsung. And there could be more about the new teaser. Last year, when inviting everyone for S3’s event, Samsung hinted the glazed finish of the device. The dot pattern that you see above could be that of the S4 and it looks like a glossy plastic back cover for a black S4.

Video can be pretty great, but live video can be even better. You could stream from your cell phone, but the quality isn’t going to be the best. With Live Shell, you can stream directly from your camcorder of choice directly to the web, all without using a PC as an intermediary.

The wireless accessory looks like it can work with a number of different camcorders, getting the video feed through a standard HDMI connection. It takes three AA batteries and connects to the Internet via WiFi or Ethernet, streaming your feed directly to your Ustream channel. The batteries are said to last about three hours of straight shooting.

You can see the Cerevo Live Shell in action through the embedded video above. It’s all in Japanese, but the setup and use seem easy enough to follow. It’s “coming soon” for $299.

You may already know about Qik and its livestreaming service, but it looks like they’re expanding into the video call space too. This new version of Qik will allow for full-duplex, full-screen video calls via the Samsung Galaxy Tab tablet, but they say it should work with a range of other Android devices too.

Unlike FaceTime, which only (officially) works over a Wi-Fi connection, Qik says that you’ll be able to use its video call service over 3G, 4G, and Wi-Fi. The interface will be similar to FaceTime with a full screen of the person you’re talking to, shoving you into a smaller window in the corner.  In order to use the new Qik, which is set to hit Android Market next month, you’ll need an Android phone with a Cortex-A8 processor. These include the Motorola Droid X, HTC EVO 4G, and Samsung Galaxy S.

Qik for years has enabled mobile users the ability to broadcast movies from their mobile phone directly to the web.  They curently have 3.5 million users and are adding nearly 500,000 more each month.  Qik projects 75 million additional installs for 2011 thanks to their partnership with HTC, Motorola and Nokia (for the N97).
