iPad 3 Coming In Spring 2012

When Apple introduced the iPad 2, it was a bit of a yawn, with little radical improvement over the iPad original flavor.  With apple changing their release schedule, there was almost instant speculation that the iPad 3 just might be introduced in time for the 2011 Holiday Season.

Apple iPad 3…3D?

The folks over at Netbook news have spotted an interesting piece of hardware.  There is no doubt that it is some prototype Apple iPad device.  Any doubt goes away be seeing the reverse of it, complete with a sticker over the Apple logo, and the connection is all Apple as well, not to mention that [...]

There is no doubt that 2010 was the year of the iPad.  With 15 million of them sold last year, it was clear that Apple had a hit on their hands.  The target buyer was often one that was deciding between a netbook and a tablet; or that was at least what we were told.  [...]

Lies, Damn Lies, and Statistics

The iPas was definitely a phenomenon in 2010, and set the stage for tablets galore.  Folks have been heralding the death of the desktop, the notebook and the netbook, not necessarily in that order.  However, I saw two sets of numbers that are going in the opposite direction.

With just about everyone and their uncle (ok probably not unless your uncle is names Asus), coming about with some type of tablet device, it looks like 2011 will be the year that tablet computing hits the mainstream.  However, as companies innovate, and try to catch up to Apple’s iPad, they just might notice that [...]

Apparently, one of the secret special sauces of the current MacBook Air is the ultrathin display.  Despite the high price of the current MacBook Air, and the use of last year’s processor, the oh so slim profile did certainly get everyone’s attention, and made it to plenty of folks gadget lust lists.  By not incorporating [...]

Apple has made it clear that they were not going to make a netbook, and after their iPad came out it made perfect sense.  Why slug it out trying to make a profit in such a slim margin space, when their iPad could command a premium with so little competition. However, when it comes time to [...]
