Rumors of Amazon Android Tablet Getting More Detailed

May 23, 2011 By Leave a Comment

There’s no creative way to say this anymore- there are more rumors over the possibility of an Amazon tablet. It’s understood by most that ones easily on its way, but there haven’t been many leads as to when or what we’ll be dealing with. Well, PC Mag may be on to something, and claims to have a source with all the answers.

According to their source, we’ll be seeing two models powered by a Nvidia’s Tegra quad-core chip; one 10 inch and on 7 inch with an LCD display. Apparently, Amazon wanted to give their users the ability to switch between a colored LCD screen and a black and white E Ink-like display for easy reading, but this would take to long and Amazon is supposedly planning the release of their tab(s) in time for the holidays.

December 13, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Some new images of Motorola’s 10-inch Honeycomb Tablet have surfaced thanks to Mr. Burrycam, and it looks like it’s been branded by none other than the Big Red. We’re not sure on a definite name for the beast yet, but it’s being tossed between Stingray, Everest, or Trygon. Some confirmed specs include a 1GHz Tegra 2 T20 processor, 1280 x 800 multitouch screen, 32GB onboard storage, 512MB RAM, Micro USB port, Mini-HDMI port, 3.5 headphone jack, front facing camera, and even an additional micro-USB slot allowing for up to another 32GB of storage.

Surely we’ll be seeing more of this multi-named tablet in weeks to come, so be sure to stick with us.

Advent Vega Tegra 2 Tablet Sells Out on Launch Day in the UK

November 19, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Today the 10-inch Advent Vega went on sale over in the UK, and if you weren’t in stores right at launch, then chances are you’ve missed out because this tablet has officially sold out until stocks are replenished in another couple weeks. Could it be the Nvidia Tegra 2 that powers this beast is what’s to blame for the popular demand? We think so.

Creative Introduces 7-inch and amp; 10-inch Android 2.1 Tablets

November 2, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Can’t say we expected Creative to jump in the tablet game, but these last few months have been full of surprises. We’re looking at 7-inch (480 x 800) and 10-inch (1024 x 768) tablets, packing Android 2.1, ZiiLabs ZMS-08 processors, WiFi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 2.1 EDR, and microSD expansion. Both units are scheduled to ship in December this year, but if you think we’ll be seeing these in the States as soon as the UK – think again. The 7-incher will run you around €229 for the 8 giger and €259 for the 16GB. The mac-daddy 10-incher on the other hand will cost €289 (8GB), and €319 (16GB). Not too shabby, assuming they’ll be upgradable to Gingerbread.
