Cisco's attempt at entering the massively competitive tablet market has come to a quiet end. The company's Cius product has been set off to greener pastures without even making a serious dent in the industry. It was meant to be the leader in enterprise-focused tablets.

It's the same reason the Blackberry Playbook never got a chance to spread its wings. Read The Full Story

Verizon pairs Cisco Cius business tablet with 4G LTE

Chris Davies, Jul 15th 2011 Discuss [0]

Cisco's Cius Android tablet still hasn't actually made it to market - last we heard, July 31 was the big day - but already the enterprise-friendly company is talking about alternative versions. Latest to get the nod is a Verizon 4G model that will use the carrier's LTE network, though bizarrely it won't do so via an integrated 4G modem.
