The news on the vine right now is that Google really is going ahead with a Chrome OS tablet and is going to release it in November this year. This claim comes from the Download Squad, who claim that they have it from a reliable source that a Chrome OS tablet is coming from Google. No prizes for guessing the manufacturing partner though. Continue reading Google Launching Chrome OS Tablet In November
A new Android Tablet has emerged in the US and it is from a hitherto unknown company called Augen. It will be running Android 2.1 and will be available at Kmart sometime next month. The best part about this tablet is the fact that it will be priced at $150 only.
Once upon a time, not too long ago, India had rejected a $100 computer designed by MIT saying that it was still too expensive for the masses. Last week, a new cheap table computer was revealed that is being projected as the answer to the problem of providing a computer to every child. This is a $35 tablet, based on the design from AllGo systems that was talked about earlier this year. Continue reading India’s $35 Tablet Prototype Is The New OLPC?
Looks like the tablet makers have finally realized that the market for children’s tablets is an untapped one that can really explode with the right kind of prodding. Which is why, in the last two week, this is probably the 3rd kiddie tablet that I have come across. This one’s from a company called HIPIKids and it is called the HIPITouch. It is a 10.1″ tablet device that has very color interface and looks pretty hardy. Continue reading HIPITouch Is A 10Inch Tablet For Kids, No FlowerPower Involved
Another day, another 7inch tablet. In fact, another Android-based tablet. Even if Google fails in the smartphone market, they will be remembered for bringing a great OS to small manufacturers who want to make tablets (too). A company called Chile, from China, has released an Android-based tablet called the T7-3G. It definitely looks like a lot of the other chinese tablets that we have seen earlier and does not have anything striking or different about it. However, some of the specs are attractive. Continue reading Chile From China Introduces A 7Inch Android Tablet
Continue reading Velocity Micro Introduces Cruz Line Of Tablets A new report has confirmed that the Blackberry tablet does indeed exist and it is probably coming with flash support. When rumors of a Blackberry tablet broke earlier, we already had a lot of details like the screen size and connectivity options. This new report from a source close to RIM (makers of the Blackberry line of phones) has confirmed that the earlier details, leaked by Rodman & Renshaw analyst Ashok Kumar last Friday, are quite accurate. Continue reading Blackberry Tablet A Reality With Flash Support A company has discovered that you can make an Android-based computer for about $15 in material costs. Add to that a resistive touchscreen and battery and you can still probably be around $35 in material costs. Put it all together and you will get a very cheap Android tablet that will put the cheapest tablet you have seen so far to shame. It won’t of course be able to take on something quite as powerful as the iPad but it will be able to do just fine as an Android MID. Continue reading $35 Android Tablet Gives Hope For Super-Cheap Tablet Revolution Samsung has yet another leak to be embarrassed about. Or to be proud of, depending on how the information reached the bloggers who leaked it. Turns out that the tablet leaked some time back isn’t the only tablet Samsung is working on. Whilst the last one was called the Galaxy Tab/Tape, this one has a different calling name. The buttons are also different. Looks like these are genuine leaks because there’s a video of the thing in action. Continue reading Another Samsung Tablet Leaks, This Time A 7 Inch One
According to a report release by DisplaySearch, the Apple [NASDAQ:APPL] iPad is actually responsible for the reduction of Netbook market share. This is of course something that a lot of people had already predicted for various reasons but to see it actually reported by someone is another thing. It is of course quite visible that the market has gone tablet crazy but it looks like that craziness is also affecting the growth rate of the netbook market. Good for use tablet-lovers of course but pretty bad for the netbook makers. Continue reading DisplaySearch Reports iPad Siphoning Netbook Market Share |
