Amazon Tablet Could Be Cheap
Amazon has taken their Kindle eReader down to some ridiculously price points, but in the end it is really an ereader, and nobody would think of it as a tablet. As tablets continue in popularity, Amazon would like to enter this space, and undercutting the Apple leader would be a perfect strategy. Analysts are thinking they [...]

HP is looking to move their TouchPad up to the 4G speed on the At&T network. This TouchPad features a 9.7″, 1024 x 768 display and runs the WebOS 3.0 operating system (the one that the Palm folks made for smartphones).

Whenever folks talk about a tablet being a “laptop replacement,” this seems quite ridiculous. Most folks have tons of data on a flash drive, and yet their tablet has no port to accept it. No, those skinny tablets are all about good looks, and fall flat on their face when it is time to get [...]

Digitimes is reporting that Amazon is developing an upcoming tablet. While the super-saver-shipping-goliath of online sales is mostly a reseller of goods, their Kindle ebook reader did up the ante.

Panasonic is known for their ToughBook line of ruggedized notebooks.

Oh how the mighty have fallen. RIM once owned the top end of the wireless phone market when there was no competition to their Blackberry products. But faced with increased competition from iPhone and Android devices, well they have just not been competing of late. So, their answer is to go and create their own tablet. [...]

For the last year, it seems like there has been some weekly announcement that the netbook is currently dead. This time around, PC Mag is announcing this on the basis that Acer shipped 400k to 500k netbooks in May, and that is half of the month before. Uh-hum. Are we forgetting that May is not any [...]
