This commercial is the exact reason why Apple is as strong a force as it is today: it gave me goosebumps. They were able to take a product that is considered “old news” to bloggers like me, make a promo video for it, and make it, well, captivating and interesting to watch - despite knowing [...]

We just got word from HP the details on the TouchPad for Canada and thought we would share it with you. The TouchPad is HP’s first webOS tablet and it will be available to Canadians on July 15, 2011. The stores that will be carrying it on that day are: the HP Store Vancouver, the [...]

Guess what folks, the BlackBerry PlayBook - RIM’s first stab at the tablet niche - is about to go international. RIM has just announced 16 new countries set to receive the device including (but not limited to): Australia, France, Germany, India, the United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom. Pricing and carrier/partner details have yet to [...]

Nothing makes me happier than daily updates and news about this tablet - regardless if for good or bad. Whether pricing, release date, or even just the progression of its webOS platform, I get a lil’ giddy inside; even more so since the news dropped yesterday from HP that the TouchPad will hit Canadian soil [...]

With the recent insurgence of manufacturers pumping out new tablet devices almost daily, it’s really no wonder that consumer adoption rate is growing at the alarmingly fast rate that it is. So Samsung has decided to get some facts together to coincide with the popularity by hiring independent research firm Kelton Research to find out just how much [...]

During the Google I/O conference last month one of the biggest announcements - and giveaways - was the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 in all its Honeycomb powered glory. Needless to say, those not in attendance were left with a bit of envy wondering how/when they could get their hands on it as well. Then the [...]

Ok, I’ve heard of some pretty weird things when it comes to fan-boys and what they are willing to do to get their hands on new devices, but this story pwns’em all; here’s what happened. A 17-year old - who hails from the Anhui province in China - was willing to sell his kidney for 22,000 [...]

I recently reviewed Conde Nast’s “GQ” interactive magazine application and I reviewed it quite favorably. So I’m somewhat surprised that, in an Advertising Age interview, co-owner of Rolling stone Jann Wenner expressed some uncertainty for tablet versions of the magazines. Although he had some kind words to say like “It’s a good magazine reading device, [...]

Despite my ever-professed love for BlackBerry’s Playbook, I still do not consider myself a true “fan-boy” of the growing phenomena known as the tablet. Yes, they are extremely useful; yes, they are compact and convenient; and yes, they increase productivity ten-fold; all this I agree with. However, I just can’t change the fact that I [...]

I’m a heavy iOS user, but I’m familiar with the rapidly-approaching threat of all things Android. Today, my fears have not wavered much as NVIDA’s new Tegra 3 processor (Nicknamed “Kal-El”) was demoed. After being announced earlier this year, “Kal-El” has lots to live up to as it is the first quad-core mobile processor. The [...]
