With the arrival of the tablets with Android 3.0, the other models with lower versions have moved from the possible tablets to stay as a MID with a decent operating system but limited to tasks beyond the occasional game, read emails, some browsing and playback video and music.

The SlidePad and the PocketPad are new bets market for Christmas this year in that area. The struggle between the brands that offer these devices with Android 2.3 will be hard and perhaps the last.

The Memup SlidePad screen tablet is a 7 or 10 inches that is renewed with the Android store Getjar alternative maintains capacitive screens, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.1 and memory from 4 to 16 GB. The model with smaller screen and 4 GB of internal memory is the most affordable, cost 130 Euros, but instead should be noted that we took a resistive screen.

If we want better screen (capacitive) and 8 GB of internal memory, you have to climb to 180 euros. As for the 10-inch model, there is only a version that gives us 16 GB of internal memory for 280 euros. All models feature HDMI Slidepad, microSD card slot, 1 GHz processor and 512 MB ​​of RAM.

But for us the most striking pattern is the new Memup PocketPad with 8 GB memory and a 4.3 inch screen, Android 2.3, priced at 100 euros. It has WiFi, camera and microSD card slot.

Upon arrival at the Blackberry market, Playbook and its new operating system from RIM may want to get most of your product. The machine of rumors has been initiated and, says from reliable sources, we have the first possible toy of the future: a Blackberry media player brand.

Although details are very few existing, said to have mobile software device (Texas Instruments’ OMAP platform like the Blackberry tablet) and use the operating system of the playbook, which has demonstrated quality in many aspects. In addition to media said that might be focused on the professional field, e.g. for the slide show or similar. We hope to be getting details that are more specific as time goes on, and as long as this rumor is true.

This device could serve both the professional audience – traditionally the target segment of Blackberry devices, but now things have changed a lot – and the domestic, though I do not think it will be a huge success. Both the RIM device known as the Apple iTV compete against teams from HTPC type and, especially, multimedia hard drives. The latter are much cheaper, and from my point of view is currently the best option. We’ll see what we have prepared.

Although the tablet Asus Eee Pad Transformer is not yet available officially in our country, you could leave us with the desire to see in action in this device after HoneyComb show you, how the Acer Iconia Tab A500 and Galaxy Tab have the 10.1.

Our fellow Xatakandroid already have a model in its claws and the first who have already been unpacked and show what it’s like in person on Asus Eee Pad Transformer.

Please remember that this tablet should not arrive later this month of June and that his strong point, besides coming to Android 3.0 will be based with a keyboard that turns this into a practical portable tablet with Android.

Already some time ago I anticipate that Research in Motion Blackberry tablet intended to market its Playbook for a price below $ 500. Finally, the guys at RIM have kept their word, but by a margin a fair bit. Yesterday started within Playbook reserve several U.S. retail chains to a starting price of $ 499.

This price is for 16GB WiFi Playbook. The 32GB model will cost $ 599, while the top model with 64GB of internal storage will cost $ 699. The device will also subsidize by carriers AT & T, Sprint and Verizon.

Currently there are no news about what the price on the European market but in the worst case, will not exceed 500 euros, so the playbook remains in the same price range that iPad2. Once we have more data on its launch in the old continent and what operators welcome him in their pricing plans we will let you know.

It seems that Samsung sees itself thinness and price of the new iPad an obstacle to the Galaxy Tab 10.1 Samsung is competitive with her, and has pronounced Don-Joo Lee, Vice President, Mobile Division of the Korean company.

Although I have been following reviews of all types, I personally thought it was a pretty aggressive renovation and Samsung itself feels the same way, being forced to rethink some point in their strategy.

“Apple made it very thins … we Will Have to Improve the parts That Are INADEQUATE.” Don-Joo Lee

We remind you that Apple has been able to stop at 8.8 mm thickness of the tablet, while Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is 10.9 millimeters in some deserving. It may seem silly, but just a technology leader committed to the miniaturization of its range of mobile device, is a direct hit. Read more… »

Become a supplier of components for Apple computers, as well as advantages, disadvantages as bring stress. This is what must be happening in Omnivision, whose sensor for the next phone and maybe Apple iPad looks like it might not arrive on time. And that does not run, fly, Sony is already on the lookout to be the ones who put the photo to the next iPhone touch 5.

This change of brand for at least the first device that have to come to market will not change in the number of megapixels in the camera the next iPhone 5, since both of Omnivision envisioned as possible replacement for Sony will be 8 megapixels, and both have backlight system.

Finally being true this rumor pointed to by many analysts, Sony colaría another phone technology with enough photographic aspirations and would put his head in recognition using their own terminals 2011.

The new Netgear router already arrived and will do its part to make the Internet connection at home does not miss ever.

Netgear router DGN2200M, This model combines wireless-N and ADSL2 modem with a system that uses the 3G, 4G or WiMax through a USB adapter in case you lose the main signal. USB port that can use it to share a device connected to it with any computer on the network.

Another strong point of this router, which has four Ethernet ports, is software that includes, among other tasks, monitor the expenditure of data when using a 3G connection, prioritize traffic by QoS, SPI to filter what comes into our mailbox e-mail filters, parental control or the Push-N to add equipment compatible to our network more easily.

The price of this router will be around 155 euros.

Although the data we already have LG T-Mobile tablet let us rather cold, the matter heats up by rumors that this device would place the Koreans as an element of the 3D world.

Future LG G-Slate, with its Tegra chip 2 and 8.9-inch screen, enter in the 3D world with a screen that would show a third dimension without wearing glasses, but also be able to generate the 3D content. Its rear camera can record it appears that 3D video for later viewing on a compatible TV via its HDMI output. Would make sense, but would depend on the HDMI connection type that was finally implemented.

Will then these tablet two chambers back to get a native 3D effect? If we look at the videos of the tablet, no. So we must conclude that they or the videos do not reflect the actual design, or all will depend on our imagination. Wait at Mobile World Congress Barcelona to be sure.

Samsung has reason to be happy with his Galaxy Tab, although the media are being quite critical of the tablet, especially as relates to its price, is doing quite well in terms of sales.

If a few days ago we informed you that had passed the 600,000 units in its first month, now that Samsung’s own reports that it has surpassed one million units in its first two months of life.

Be available in major European operators and across the Atlantic is a boon for advertising and subsidies that put on the table, but we all know we are competitive prices, so I did not expect such good sales. Sales in Spain began with Vodafone, and then arrive Orange, Movistar and Telstra.

The next barrier that marked the Koreans, taking advantage of the holidays is that you get a million and a half at the end of the year, a figure it may seem difficult to fulfill, and we have demonstrated that S Galaxy mobile device sales Android are wonderful. Read more… »

Motorola, this is their business networks and now back on the phone, plans to present at the upcoming CES in Las Vegas a device that sends content directly to our multimedia sources such mobile devices or tablet. All this without going through the box out, we understand that TV is so far master of multimedia shipments in the digital home.

This gadget that already has very definite would be what we now know as set-top-box but instead of being destined to bring content to the TV, would specialize in optimizing it so that we receive from the phone or the new tablets. The idea reminds us very much indeed SlingPlayer.

The device you think Motorola would not be exclusive, and they want that new functionality be integrated into digital receivers already sold them. For operators and distributors offer the possibility for an extra charge to users who want to take up programming. So far the idea will be carried out only with equipment within the home, leaving the outside to break later. Read more… »
