Huawei MediaPad revealed: world's first 7-inch Android 3.2 tablet, dual-core 1.2GHz Qualcomm CPU

Posted on Jun 20, 2011 by MG3

It's here folks -- the planet's first Android 3.2 tablet. Huawei just introduced a downright luscious new slate over in Singapore, with CommunicAsia being the launchpad for the 7-inch MediaPad. It's the first high-profile 7-inch tablet we've seen in quite some time, and somehow or another, it's managed to leapfrog most of the currently shipping Honeycomb tablets with a build of Android we've only ever joked about.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 experiencing shipping delays, unavailable at some outlets

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 experiencing shipping delays, unavailable at some outlets

Posted on Jun 20, 2011 by MG1

So, we knew the Galaxy Tab 10.1 was coming, but it looks like some shoppers eagerly anticipating the tablet's arrival will go home empty handed today. We just received word from a Samsung rep that there have been "shipping delays to some stores in certain regions." They went on to say, "We expect most retail locations to have inventory by tomorrow while supplies last." That's all we have at the moment, but we'll keep you posted as soon as we know more.

HP TouchPad rumored to lack document editing at launch

HP TouchPad rumored to lack document editing at launch

Posted on Jun 20, 2011 by MG1

The WebOS nuts at PreCentral have received an anonymous tip-off that HP's imminent slate won't be able to edit Office docs out of the box. As much as we'd like to dismiss this as a retaliatory rumor put out by BlackBerry, it emits an unfortunate whiff of truth. While HP has previously made a big deal of the TouchPad's inclusion of the Quickoffice app, it has only said it's "working with Quickoffice" to include document editing, and it has never demoed editing in action. The company has recently been trying to boost its app count, but perhaps it should have put more effort into securing core functionality instead. A glimmer of hope, though: the same tip-off also suggested that at least some e...

New Apple iPad 2 ad is out; Foxconn to move some iPad production to Brazil by September

Posted on Jun 20, 2011 by MG3

According to Globo, Brazil's Minister of Science and Technology, Aloízio Mercadante, says that Foxconn will be starting production of the Apple iPad 2 in his country starting in September. Originally, production of the tablet was to have begun in July, but the date has been pushed back because of problems with construction of a facility and a lack of skilled labor. Foxconn sent 175 enginners to China for training, but needs to hire more than 200 before starting production of the device in Brazil.

Vizio tablet fits Walmart into its hectic schedule, shipping in just six weeks

Vizio tablet fits Walmart into its hectic schedule, shipping in just six weeks

Posted on Jun 20, 2011 by MG3

Filed in: NotebooksVIZIO

Looks like Blake Griffin will have to find some other unreleased gadget to wave in front of our noses, because his beloved Vizio tablet will soon be available to all the little people who shop at Walmart. An internal schedule just faxed itself to our tin foil caps declaring that the Android 8-incher will start shipping in "week 26", which is Walmartish for six weeks from now. That might seem a long wait considering Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 is already giving us doe-eyes from the shelves at Best Buy, but the Vizio hits a friendlier price bracket (recently leaked at $349) and has its own set of tricks.

Apple holding off on new Macs until Lion launch?

Apple holding off on new Macs until Lion launch?

Posted on Jun 17, 2011 by MG1

Apple may be eager enough to get Mac OS X Lion on new hardware that it's delaying new Macs until Lion's July release, tipsters maintained Thursday. The new MacBook Air is reportedly already set to go and is being held back only to flash them with Lion once the software is done. AppleInsider in getting the info also believed an upgraded Mac mini and a Thunderbolt-oriented LED Cinema Display were both waiting for the same treatment.
The only delays are likely to be triggered by Lion itself being pushed back.

O2 in the U.K. decides against selling BlackBerry PlayBook due to customer responses

O2 in the U.K. decides against selling BlackBerry PlayBook due to customer responses

Posted on Jun 17, 2011 by MG1

The BlackBerry PlayBook launched today in the U.K. and If you live there and were planning on buying the 7 inch tablet, don't run into any O2 locations. The carrier has decided against offering the tablet to its customers and in response to O2 subscribers who say that they want to buy the device, the carrier says it refuses to sell the BlackBerry PlayBook because of "issues with customer experiences".
O2 has decided before against offering its customers a device it didn't believe in. About 2 months ago, the mobile operator decided not to offer the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play to its clients, citing below average customer experience and units plagued with bugs.
In the letter sent to those O2 cus...
