We grabbed some hands-on playtime with with Wacom Inkling to see if it’s really a doodler’s dream; check out our first-impressions after the cut.

Based on the same Sensation we described as a great everyman Android flagship just a few months back, with the addition of Beats Audio technology thanks to HTC’s investment in the pro-headphones company its become something of a niche powerhouse, at least if you talk to HTC’s team.

Samsung Series 7 CHRONOS notebook PC Hands-on [Video]

, Sep 21st 2011 Discuss [3]

A lovely set of laptops is what Samsung is presenting next here at this year’s Pepcom Holiday Spectacular 2011, the Samsung Notebook Series 7 CHRONOS. This laptop comes in two sizes, one of them a 14-inch profile, the other a 15-inch profile, both of them with bigger displays than you’ve ever seen before in such a small set of chassis. What we get to see here isn’t so much about the insides – things like the Battery Life Plus tech which keeps 80% of the cell’s original capacity in a normal life cycle (this providing up to 15,000 charging cycles), instead our presenter from Samsung shows off the uniqueness in the display technology and the coolness of the chassis – well done since we’ve already also got an IFA 2011 look of one of the two of these notebooks in some nice photo detail as well.
