The HP Slate 500 and Enterprise Tablets

, Oct 22nd 2010 Discuss [16]

The debut of HP's Slate 500 begs the question as to whether or not enterprise customers and market verticals care about Tablet computers. For those of us who have followed the industry for 10 or more years this product announcement feels like a re-run of a TV show we saw 6 years ago.  Pen based Tablet PC's have come and gone and nearly all of them in the days of old focused on the enterprise.   Will Tablet / Slate PC's fair better this time around? What type of operating system should they run? Can they compete with the iPad?  Let's explore. Read The Full Story

HP Slate Headed for Enterprise Customers, Not Mass Market

, Jul 22nd 2010 Discuss [0]

Well, there you have it. We've been riding the HP Slate roller-coaster for quite some time now, with our fingernails firmly clamped in our teeth. Waiting on the edge our seat since the acquisition of Palm to see if the Slate, running its infamous Windows 7, would ever see the light of day. And sure enough, today we finally have an answer. It's definitely coming, but there's one big change: enterprise. Read The Full Story

The Daily Slash: June 17th 2010

, Jun 17th 2010 Discuss [0]

We're at the tail-end of the week, but that's not slowing us down. Welcome to tonight's edition of The Daily Slash. We're glad you could make it, as usual. Tonight, in the Best of R3 Media, we've got the Nexus One launching with Froyo, the Nintendo 3DS won't make it across the pond for awhile, and the iPhone 4's got some RAM under that hood. And then in the Dredge 'Net, Microsoft is promising a new mobile OS -- kind of, there's already someone waiting for the iPhone 4, and there's even more doubt about the HP Slate. Read The Full Story

Fusion Garage’s JooJoo to Get 3G and Unlocked USB in the Coming Months

The good news just keeps on coming for the JooJoo. It's about time, too, considering early reviews aren't necessarily the brightest. And, while Fusion Garage's CEO, Chandra Rathakrishnan says that new software, along with a European launch, are on the way, this new bit of news from the company's head is definitely a little bit more worthwhile.

The Daily Slash: April 29th 2010

, Apr 29th 2010 Discuss [0]

Today, for all intents and purposes, was a big day. Maybe not as big as yesterday, but it's pretty close. Especially if you consider the two cancellations, with the HP Slate getting tossed to the side, along with Microsoft's Courier digital journal. A sad day for the tablet market, indeed. But, we move on, forward unto . . . Well, whatever it is you're heading into. Either way, welcome to the Thursday edition of the Daily Slash. In the Best of R3, we've got the LG Aloha getting a name change, iAd takes a steep turn in the price bracket, and Palm may be ready to face a class-action lawsuit. And then in the Dredge 'Net, looks like Valve finally hit a release date for Steam on the Mac, the app thing gets out of hand, and Verizon gets a new netbook. Read The Full Story

HP Slate Breaks Cover: Verdict Isn’t Good

, Apr 19th 2010 Discuss [8]

There's something to be said about a tablet with netbook internals. And, while we wish they were good things, it generally isn't. Take, for example, the HP Slate, which was just nabbed by the folks over at Connecti.ca. While they haven't had it long enough to actually get a full review up, they've got plenty of pictures of their hands-on time with the tablet, plus a mini-review to satiate anyone actually interested in the tablet from HP. What's their verdict? Meh. Read The Full Story

HP Slate Gets Detailed and Priced Thanks to HP Document

, Apr 5th 2010 Discuss [1]

Apparently, a rendered video wasn't good enough for HP employees. No, they needed hard facts, just in case inquisitive people asked all the right questions. Though, we would be willing to bet that if those same employees were indeed asked, they'd probably have to say they don't know anything. Luckily, we don't work for HP. Read The Full Story

HP Slate Still Exists and This Rendered Video Proves It

, Apr 5th 2010 Discuss [1]

Despite the fact the Apple iPad released with some ridiculously good numbers, there are still some other tablets out there. Take, for example, the HP Slate. Yes, it still exists. And yes, it's still coming out. (Eventually.) And with all this hub-bub swirling around the new tablet from Apple, HP wanted to make sure that you didn't forget their version in the news maelstrom. So they've released a newly fashioned video render of their tablet in action. Oh, and it has a USB port, too. Read The Full Story

Adobe And HP Show Off Slate, Flash and AIR Take Limelight

, Mar 8th 2010 Discuss [3]

There's another tablet set to launch here soon on the market, but that doesn't mean you should take your eyes off the competition just yet. With videos like this one after the break, we're pleasantly surprised by what HP, Microsoft, and Adobe have worked together to create. Now, if the HP Slate can function as well as these videos showcase, our anticipation for this gadget will increase ten-fold. Plus, we love crossword puzzles. Read The Full Story
