Sony Tablet P to go '4G' on AT&T this Saturday

Sony Tablet P to go '4G' on AT&T this Saturday

Posted on Mar 02, 2012 by MG1

The dual-screen Sony Tablet P will launch on the AT&T network on March 4th and bring the network's '4G' speeds to the device.
The unique, clam-shell tablet will cost $399, which isn't all that much of a discount, on a two-year contract, with expensive data plans on top of that.
Rather than full 4G LTE internet, users will only have access to the still-pretty-rapid HSPA+ download speeds available on the AT&T network.
Users will need to pay $35 a month for 3GB of mobile data or $50 a month for 5GB of downloads.

Samsung: "Honestly, We're Not Doing Very Well in the Tablet Market"

Samsung: "Honestly, We're Not Doing Very Well in the Tablet Market"

Posted on Feb 29, 2012 by MG1

Filed in: TabletsSamsung

Despite having a monstrously large range of tablets on offer, Samsung has never quite captured the market in the way it would like to. Its sales clearly lag well behind the iPad and the Kindle Fire—and it seems they're happy to admit it.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 arriving exclusively on Verizon Wireless on March 1st

Posted on Feb 29, 2012 by MG1

Verizon Wireless has just announced that the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7 will land exclusively on the carrier on March 1st. The Galaxy Tab 7.7 features a 7.7-inch Super AMOLED Plus display and runs on Android 3.2 Honeycomb. What might set you back though is the price - the Tab 7.7 costs $499 on a two-year contract. This means that you’ll be tied to paying a minimum of $30 for 2 gigs of untethered Verizon LTE data.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.7’s screen comes with a neat resolution of 1280x800 pixels, which results in excellent picture density for its size. It also features a 1.4GHz dual-core processor, and two cameras: a 3.2-megapixel front one recording 720p video and a 2-megapixel one on the back.

Imminent iPad 3 launch prompts iPad 2 sale at Best Buy

Posted on Feb 28, 2012 by MG1

Apple is all but confirmed to be planning a press conference for March 7th during which it will unveil its next-generation iPad tablet. The iPad 3 is expected to feature a high-definition 2,048 x 1,536-pixel Retina Display along with a faster quad-core Apple A6 processor, embedded 4G LTE, an upgraded rear camera and a redesigned case. There is no question that the new iPad will be a significant upgrade compared to the current model, but not everyone needs the latest and greatest. For those willing to forgo the added speed, embedded LTE and HD display, Best Buy is now offering $50 off every iPad 2 model it carries. Of course buying the iPad 2 now at a $50 discount is a risky move — a number o...

Google tablet - 7-inch device in the works?

Google tablet - 7-inch device in the works?

Posted on Feb 27, 2012 by MG3

Google will jump into the tablet market this year with its own 7-inch device, according to a DisplaySearch analyst.
The tablet market has experienced rapid growth over the past couple of years thanks to devices such as the iPad 2, Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Kindle Fire and it looks as though Google wants in on that cake, with its Ice Cream Sandwich operating system providing it with a good starting point.
Speaking to Cnet, analyst Richard Shim suggested that a self-branded, 7-inch (1280x800) Google tablet running Ice Cream Sandwich would start production in April.

Samsung announces Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1)

Samsung announces Galaxy Tab 2 (10.1)

Posted on Feb 27, 2012 by MG3

We already saw Samsung's Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0) just over a week ago, and now the company has come clean with its 10.1-inch variant (along with a new Galaxy Beam smartphone). Aside from bumping up the screen resolution of its LCD to 1280 x 800, from 1024 x 600 on the 7.0, the 10.1 features the same 1Ghz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, Bluetooth 3.0 connectivity, front and rear cameras (VGA and 3-megapixels, respectively) and 21Mbps HSPA+ connectivity if you opt for the 3G model instead of WiFi. The 10.1-incher notably comes equipped with a 7,000 mAh battery (up from 4,000 on the 7.0), which will hopefully ensure stamina that's similar to its predecessor. The slate is unsurprisingly loaded with ...

Posted on Feb 27, 2012 by MG3

HP CEO Meg Whitman recently told investors that the company will be shipping Windows 8 products by the end of the year, and now CNET is reporting some possible details about its tablet plans. According to the site, HP is working on at least three different Windows 8 tablets, powered by chips from Intel and Qualcomm. The two Intel models are said to utilize the chipmaker's 32nm Atom Clover Trail platform, and will come in two distinct form factors. The first is reportedly a laptop / tablet hybrid — a device type that some of HP's competitors believe in — while the second is a more traditional tablet aimed at business customers.

Google's Nexus tablet may enter production in April

Google's Nexus tablet may enter production in April

Posted on Feb 27, 2012 by MG1

Filed in: TabletsGoogle

Speculation surrounding an own-brand Google tablet began late last year when Google chairman Eric Schmidt was quoted as saying the company planned to soon “market a tablet of the highest quality.” The slate is expected by many to be a 7-inch Nexus-branded device that will run Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and compete with the Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet at $199. The device could also push some Android partners out of the tablet market. Speaking with CNET, DisplaySearch analyst Richard Shim stoked the fire, noting that the Google slate will enter production in April and the initial run will yield between 1.5 million and 2 million units. Shim also said that the Nexus Tablet will feature a hig...
