Top 10 Tech This Week (02/02/2013)
By Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai,
Mashable, 2 February 2013.

It was another exciting week in tech, with a major announcement - the new BlackBerry 10, and a slew of other great stories.

The biggest story of the week was probably the launch of a new flagship phone, the touchscreen-only BlackBerry 10. The product that the company, now named simply BlackBerry, has bet its entire future on. The other two product announcements were not as earth-shattering perhaps, but still significant: Apple confirmed it's launching a 128GB iPad and Nokia launched a Spotify competitor.

It was a great week for science and robotics too. NASA unveiled a bot that will mine the moon, and we had the chance to see how powerful the highest resolution camera - mounted on a drone - can be.

Oh, and if you like drones, it's your lucky week - a small start-up announced a mini-drone designed to hover over your shoulder and follow you around all day, taking pictures and videos.

This week, we also have our full comprehensive review of Office 2013 and some updates on the exciting Google Glass project.

Take a look at our Top 10 Tech This Week to see what else happened this week in the world of technology…
