SlashGear Week in Review- Week 5 2011

Shane McGlaun, Jan 30th 2011 Discuss [1]

Welcome to this week's edition of the SlashGear Week in Review! If you are a PC hardware geek an AMD spokesman causally showed off an unannounced video card on Monday called the HD 6990. The card has dual GPUs and should be very fast. We heard a bit of early detail on the PSP2 from Nikkei that claimed the new portable would have an OLED touchscreen, 3G and a new CPU. That would make for a very impressive portable indeed. Read The Full Story

Welcome to the second edition of the Week in Review of 2011. This week was CES 2011 so we have tons of cool new gear to talk about.

Welcome to the first Week in Review of 2011! I hope your hangover is gone and you had a good time this weekend! Last week was an eventful one leading up to CES 2011 kicking off this month and lots of cool stuff turned up. A British DJ created a cool set of records that when overlapped form the CMYK logo. I want them and I don’t even know what kind of music the artist makes. Read The Full Story

Toshiba AC100 Review

Chris Davies, Oct 21st 2010 Discuss [6]

Companion devices come in all shapes and sizes, from big-screen smartphones through tablets to netbooks and ultraportables, but Toshiba is hoping that by borrowing a little of each they’ll find a gap in the market. The Toshiba AC100 looks like a netbook but runs Android, an OS we’re more familiar with on smartphones or, more recently, tablets. The company reckons a traditional keyboard and NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 processor should make the AC100 the best multimedia, browsing and communication ultraportable around, but is Android being asked to do more than it’s currently capable of? Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

Hey gang; it's time for another week in review. HP debuted its slick web-connected printer service on Monday. The service will let you do some cool things like print from your smartphone by emailing a document to the printer. Ahead of WWDC early Monday, AT&T started to tweak the upgrade eligibility for many iPhone 3GS owners. This was no surprise given that we knew Steve was going to be pulling that new iPhone out of his pocket a few hours later that day. Read The Full Story

ASUS Eee Pad with 4-7 inch touchscreen tipped

Chris Davies, Dec 10th 2009 Discuss [0]

Who says all the tablet rumors have to be about Apple? DigiTimes is quoting its usual shadowy "industry sources" who reckon ASUS are reading their own slate-style device, to be called the ASUS Eee Pad. A crossover MID/tablet according to their suggestion, the Eee Pad would have a 4- to 7-inch touchscreen, but beyond that details are slim. Read The Full Story

Harlequin dual-touchscreen netbook mod is DIY Courier

Chris Davies, Dec 9th 2009 Discuss [0]

Now turning a netbook into a cheap tablet or UMPC isn't new, and we've seen plenty such mods before, but this so-called Harlequin project is something else. My Dell Mini forum member pakkei decided he couldn't wait for Microsoft to release the Courier and thought he'd make one himself, converting his Inspiron Mini 9 into a slate-format tablet and adding in a second, 9-inch USB touchscreen.

Dell Mini 9 DIY netslate: most polished netbook tablet-conversion yet?

Chris Davies, Oct 13th 2009 Discuss [0]

Dell's Mini 9 netbook may be a little old in the tooth these days, but its angular casing makes it a great donor machine for a netslate project. That's just what MyDellMini forum member Rob did (to his Dell Vostro A90, the business-rebrand of the Mini 9), adding a touchscreen layer, flipping the display and relocating the power button.

Chris Davies, Sep 7th 2009 Discuss [1]

Looking quite strikingly like some of the DIY netbook tablets we've seen before, this is in fact one of GLB Industrial's two new 10-inch internet tablets, the PP-P68 and PP-P88. Caught on video last week by Charbax, the Atom-based slates each have Intel's 1.6GHz N270 processor, a 1024 x 600 touchscreen and optional 3G and GPS. Video demo after the cut Read The Full Story

SlashGear Week in Review – Week 35 2009

Shane McGlaun, Aug 30th 2009 Discuss [1]

Another week has come and gone leaving us with memories and a hoard of cool stories to throw your way for weekend reading in case you missed them over the week. An Asus 900HA netbook was hacked into a touchscreen slate on Monday and we really liked it. DIY gear is so cool, especially when it turns out this good. Monday also brought some details on the Blackberry Storm 2 piezo touchscreen tech. We really hope its better than the original Storm. Read The Full Story
