7-inch HP TouchPad Go leaked with 1.5GHz processor

7-inch HP TouchPad Go leaked with 1.5GHz processor

Filed in: TabletsHP

HP’s TouchPad Go was recently approved by the the Federal Communications Commission, which revealed some information on the unannounced tablet. The webOS device could be equipped with a dual-core 1.5GHz processor and a 3G radio, which would indicate HP is looking to launch it with at least one U.S. carrier. We first heard word of a 7-inch TouchPad tablet in January of this year and the most recent rumors revealed that HP could launch the device this month. It is possible we’ll hear more about the TouchPad Go in the coming days, and we hope it gains more consumer traction than the original TouchPad, which just had its priced slash by $100 to make it more appealing.

Nintendo investors pressuring developers to support iPhone, iPad

Nintendo investors pressuring developers to support iPhone, iPad

Posted on Aug 12, 2011 by MG3

Ever since Apple started taking gaming more serious with its iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad, Nintendo has been feeling the most pressure as these devices directly compete with their handhelds. Nintendo’s President, Satoru Iwata, came out a few months ago telling developers to outright ignore smartphones, but it looks like investors of Nintendo can’t help but take notice of the increasing popularity of Apple’s devices, especially when Nintendo’s latest handheld, the Nintendo 3DS, isn’t selling well.

T-Mobile begins rollout of  G-Slate Android 3.1 Honeycomb update

T-Mobile begins rollout of G-Slate Android 3.1 Honeycomb update

Posted on Aug 12, 2011 by MG3

The T-Mobile G-Slate is catching up with the Joneses, that is if the Joneses are the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 or Motorola XOOM, as it is now being updated to Android 3.1 Honeycomb. The update adds Google Videos support, resizable widgets, USB accessory support, and an expanded recent apps list. T-Mobile is rolling out the update in a staggered fashion, and users should get a notification when it is ready to be downloaded and installed. T-Mobile makes a point to say that it cannot expedite the rollout of the update, so if you don't get it right away, you will just have to be patient and wait it out.

Last week, Woot dropped the price of HP’s webOS-powered TouchPad tablet to just $379.99, the lowest price the tablet had seen yet. Despite such an attractive offering, only 612 people purchased the tablet during the Woot sale on August 5th. That’s roughly 25% of the 2,288 Motorola XOOM tablets Woot sold in a single day last month.

Archos' Arnova 7 G2 and 10 G2 tablets launch in Hong Kong, taste like Gingerbread

Posted on Aug 11, 2011 by MG3

It looks like Archos' summer of the sequels is just heating up. Less than a week ago, we spied the outfit's 8-incher at the FCC, and now our brethren at Engadget Chinese are offering up a hands-on with two more second-gen Arnovas: the Arnova 7 G2 and 10 G2. These made-over slates best their predecessors with Gingerbread and capacitive touchscreens. The original 7-inch tablet ran Froyo while its big brother came with Eclair; both sported resistive displays.

Following this past weekend's sale of the HP TouchPad tablet that took $100 off the sticker price of both the 16GB and 32GB versions (or more if you knew where to look), HP has gone ahead and made the price drop permanent. A message from HP's SVP of the Personal Systems Group in North America Steven DiFranco was sent to retailers informing them of the price drop, and HP's own webstore has relisted the TouchPad at the lower price point.

Apple looks to Samsung as LG fails to meet iPad 2 display demands, report claims

Apple looks to Samsung as LG fails to meet iPad 2 display demands, report claims

Posted on Aug 11, 2011 by MG3

Apple will turn to Samsung and Chimei Innolux to supply display panels for its iPad 2 after LG’s panels failed to meet Apple’s quality requirements. The quality issues with LG’s displays forced the company to miss its July monthly shipment goal by 1 million units, DigiTimes said. Reportedly, LG’s LCD backlight units failed during Apple’s drop tests. LG had hoped to ship 4 million LCD units per month during the third quarter, but only shipped an estimated 2.5-2.6 million units in July. Samsung, by comparison, provided the Cupertino-based firm with two million displays, or twice its monthly average. Chimei Innolux shipped 450,000 units during the month and the company has a new monthly shipmen...

Apple Successfully Blocks Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 From Europe

Posted on Aug 10, 2011 by MG1

Apple and Samsung have been in the heat of an intense legal battle across several countries, but it looks like Apple has taken the upper hand. We recently heard that Samsung had decided not to sell its Galaxy Tab 10.1 Android tablet in Australia due to the legal issues with Apple. This time around, the tablet has been blocked from being sold in Europe, giving us a clear sign that things are tipping in Apple’s favor.
The issue originally started when the iPhone maker accused Samsung of “slavishly copying” the iPhone and iPad design, and that the Korean manufacturer lacked any originality or innovation. Samsung returned fire by suing Apple for infringing on several wireless patents. The two ha...
