Samsung's invites to a March 22 event at the CTIA Wireless trade show have kicked up rumors that the company plans to launch yet another version of its Galaxy Tab line, which already has 7-inch and 10.1-inch models. The invitation includes an image of what looks like a tablet device, with the words ...
The biggest event last week was Apple's launch of the iPad with Steve Jobs presenting it. While many seem to see the new iPad as an iterative release and not as exciting as the first one, I think it will quickly eclipse its predecessor. It is vastly more capable and moves even closer to being a ful...
Unlike its arch-rival, the Apple iPad, the Motorola Xoom tablet is easy to open up for repairs and upgrades. "It appears Motorola built the Xoom to be upgraded, so they have this parting line about an inch from the top on the back that lets you separate the device into two pieces," Miroslav Djuric, ...
Since it was unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show last January, the Motorola Xoom tablet has been hailed as the strongest challenge yet to Apple's iPad.

The Mobile World Congress kicked off in Barcelona, Spain, this week, giving manufacturers a chance to flaunt the wares they hope to begin selling over the next few months.

Research In Motion has been attempting -- unsuccessfully, for the most part -- to keep details about its forthcoming tablet, PlayBook, under wraps. Despite its best efforts, news of its pricing, availability -- and now, the surprising possibility that it will run Android apps -- has steadily made it...
Dell earlier this week announced plans to offer a business-ready Windows 7 tablet with a 10-inch screen later this year. Whether or not Windows 7 in its current form is a suitable operating system for tablets remains to be seen. HP last year waffled between offering a Slate tablet running Windows 7 ...
HP on Wednesday unveiled its long-awaited webOS tablet as well as two smartphones running the mobile operating system at an event in San Francisco.

While thinking about the hoopla that's sure to accompany the long-awaited release of the Verizon iPhone later this week, one question kept popping into my head: Is Microsoft missing out on the mobile computing movement? The company that popularized the graphical user interface, thus making personal ...
History is filled with stories of companies that dominated their segment and then either fell from that high spot or fell off the map. RCA is probably the best example of a firm that went from dominance to obsolescence because, in its case, it played chicken with the U.S. government and lost. A lo...
Every time Google mentions Android 3.0's holographic interface and 3D capabilities, one perhaps imageines Princess Leia's plea to Obi Wan Kenobi played back by R2D2 in "Star Wars." Android 3.0, aka "Honeycomb," is claimed to have a redesigned holographic user interface and 3D. But just what does Goo...
T-Mobile announced two new 4G devices this week. One's the Samsung Galaxy S 4G smartphone, which will be available later this month. The other's the G-Slate tablet from LG.
