      The 7in tablet PC, which is powered by a Qualcomm 8260 Dual Core 1.2GHz processor and runs Google Android Honeycomb, is priced at £69.99 when taken with a £25 per month two-year tariff that offers up to 1Gbps of any-time data each month, as well as 1Gbps of Quiet Time data which applies between midnight and 4am and unlimited Wi-Fi access. The tablet PC, which features a slate black and silver finish, also offers both Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity.

       The 390g Orange Tahiti is 10.5mm thick and has 512MB of memory along with 8GB of storage space, a 5Mp camera, access to apps via Google's Android Market and support for Adobe Flash. Furthermore, it also benefits from a light sensor, gravity sensor, AGPS and eCompass

The unit features a 5-megapixel camera on its rear, and wireless functionality, including wi-fi, Bluetooth, AGPS, and a 3G+ connection.

If you want to get your hands on the Tahiti, you will have to part with £69.99 for the tablet, and sign up to a £25 a month data plan for no fewer than 24 months.

That contract will give you 1GB of anytime data, 1GB of quiet time data (for off-peak daytime browsing), and unlimited wi-fii hotspot data.

A fistful of data

If you're currently in the market for a new mobile handset, however, you can get the Tahiti for free when you purchase the Orange San Francisco II handset on a £41 / month price plan.

This Connected plan gives you 2GB of anytime data to use across both devices, 200 minutes, and unlimited texts.

While the unit itself is extremely cheap, it will be interesting to see whether punters are willing to purchase a tablet with a monthly bill attached when there are so many toll-free alternatives on the market, especially one running an older version of Android than its upcoming competitors.

Apple iPad 3 Review (Coming Soon) (based on assumtions )




   The Apple iPad 3 release date is just two months away or less and the new tablet will have a high-definition screen among other enhanced features, according to a new report.Rumors and speculation have been rampant in recent weeks about the highly-anticipated iPad 3 release date and features, with some coming from questionable sources and others from news organizations that stand by their sources. The latest report is from Bloomberg, which cited "three people familiar with the product," who said Apple's third-generation iPad will go on sale in March, have a high-definition screen and a faster processor, and be LTE compatible.

 Apple's iPad tablet, first launched in 2010 (the iPad 2 launched in 2011), is the world's bestselling tablet. The iPad has dominated the global tablet market the past two years, selling more than 40 million units, though Amazon's lower-priced Kindle Fire tablet has been a solid competitor, selling more than four million units since launch on Nov. 15. pple is also expected to cut pricing on its earlier iPad models, perhaps to as low as $299 or $399, to keep up with intensifying competition. Currently, iPad pricing starts at $499, while the Kindle Fire tablet starts at $199, though reviewers consistently label the iPad as a premium product.

 IPad 3 Features

A6 Processor

The current Apple iPad 2 has a 900MHz dual-core ARM Cortext-A9 processor, Apple A5 chipset and PowerVr SGX543MP2 GPU. This certainly made the Apple iPad 2 a powerful tablet and a main competitor in the world of tablets. Now Apple is aiming to make the competition tougher by sporting an A6 Quad-core Processor in the iPad 3. This would make the iPad 3 as powerful as any high-end desktop.
According to Linley Group senior analyst Kevin Krewell, “We expect the A6 will be a quad-core ARM Cortex-A9 design, which would be competitive with next year’s best mobile processors. In 2012, Nvidia will offer a quad-core Cortex-A9 processor, and Qualcomm will have the aforementioned MSM8960, a dual-core A15-class processor operating at 1.7GHz. Fabricating Apple’s A6 in 28nm (instead of the 40nm process Nvidia is using for its quad-core part) will reduce both die cost and power, yielding a much better product.”

iOS 5

   The iPad 3 will come with the latest iOS 5, which will host the multi-touch gesture technology. However, analyst and tech enthusiasts predict that Apple would introduce OS X Lion for the tablet, since it will be powered by a quad-core processor.
    This will also include multitasking features, such as notifications, task-finishing, app-switching, location and background sound.

3D Feature and New Retina Display

   Apple enthusiast expected the Retina Display feature on Apple iPad 2; however, Apple has been working majorly for an improved version of it to include it in the iPad 3. The iPhone 4 currently supports the Retina Display with a screen resolution of 960 x 640. Apple explains Retina Display as: “Developing pixels a mere 78 micrometers wide, Apple engineers were able to pack four times the number of pixels into the same 3.5-inch (diagonal) screen found on earlier iPhone models. The resulting pixel density of iPhone 4 – 326 pixels per inch – makes text and graphics look smooth and continuous at any size.”
With the Retina Display feature, the screen resolution of the iPad3 will be 2048 x 1536 pixels. However, it is said that the third version of the tablet is delayed due to Retina Display issues, and Apple is expected to ship the tablet in early 2012.
There are speculations that the tablet will display the 3D view. Although it’s too early to expect features like 3D display, devices like the LG Optimus can record videos in 3D, and output the same through HDMI.

Cloud Computing

   Apple announced its Cloud services during the WWDC 2011, and will definitely include the iCloud technology both in the iPhone 5 and iPad 3. With iCloud users can store photos, apps, calendars and access songs on iTunes without having them to store in the phone’s memory.

     
                                

 

Camera


   The iPad 3 will come with an improved camera, since the previous version of the table didn’t seem impressive enough. Unlike the iPad 2, the new tablet will come with LED flash to support the camera. It is expected to have a 5MP camera with 1080p or 720p video recording quality of 60 frames per second. The technology made by OmniVision will help reduce the size of the table by 20 percent.

 

Fingerprint Proof

   Apple has already been granted patents on this technology, and is working real hard to make the iPad3 fingerprint proof. The touch screen will be coated with oleophobic materials, which will reduce the oil and fingerprints on the screen.







Samsung GALAXY Note Review




   IS it a phone, a tablet…or both? The Samsung Galaxy Note is sure to evoke some looks from passersby. With a 5.3-inch HD Super AMOLED display, the Galaxy Note is one of the largest smartphones available. Yet even with this enormous screen, Samsung has kept the design thin and stylish. Will the Samsung Galaxy Note be able to live up to its hype by providing consumers a hybrid all-in-one device between a smartphone and tablet? Read on to see how the Galaxy Note fares among the sea of Android devices.

    The Samsung Galaxy Note comes boxed in a simple white package with the highlights of the innovative technology inside. The first impression most will get after opening the box is what a large smartphone this is, by having the Galaxy Note’s box being as small as possible to contain the device. Included in the box are the essential items to get up and running such as a quick start guide with handy information about using the S Pen, a European wall charger with USB port, a microUSB charging/sync cable, and a white in-ear headset. There are also different size ear-buds for the headsets so you can choose the set that fits best. This particular Galaxy Note came with a flip case that helps to protect the screen, which snaps onto the back and replaces the battery cover. The cover may be a promotional item as it states on the back “Not For Sale” which suggests it is bundled with the Galaxy Note. The battery is a 2500mAh lithium-ion, which is nearly the same physical size of other Samsung batteries. One item that is not included is a microSD card.

    It also comes with a powerful 1.4 GHz processor and with this behind you; it makes the Samsung Galaxy Note ideal for gamers and those of us to like to watch good quality video. I have tested this feature a lot and it is fast and impressive for quality.
Belonging to the Android family, you do of course get access to the many Android applications that are available and grow by the day. That in itself makes the Samsung Galaxy Note worth a serious look, as you will see in this Samsung Galaxy Note review.

    The Samsung Galaxy Note is ideal for those who like to jot down notes when at a meeting or seminar and for me that is one of its main benefits. It’s quick, convenient and translates easily with the use of the stylus. What I love about the Samsung Galaxy Note is that it gives me the perfect capability of both business and personal use, meaning I can take it anywhere and use it for any purpose.

    T-Mobile G-Slate Review





       The T-Mobile G-Slate will bring 3D flavors to the Android tablet market The G-Slate has a Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core processor, two 5-megapixel cameras with LED flash that can shoot 1080p HD and 3D videos. The display is 8.9-inch, there's a front-facing camera for video calls, 32GB of internal storage and a 4G radio chip for T-Mobile's network. The G-Slate will run Android 3.0 Honeycomb.

        The T-Mobile G-Slate arrives in an increasingly crowded iPad-clone market, where manufacturers are scrambling to come up with more attractive alternatives based on the Android OS. With one day to go until the G-Slate arrives, reviewers got their hands on the tablet to see whether it has any chance against the iPad.


        G-Slate in some ways to the Motorola Xoom because it has a better display and it weighs less (even though you get a smaller screen). To us, the 3D camcorder and glasses are just a bonus -- and not a very compelling one at that. The Xoom is better for those who want faster 4G speeds,

    DISPLAY
     The display is a smallish 8.9 inches, but images, HD and SD video, photos and browsing the web look fantastic. When flipped on its side, horizontally, its width is fine (at 8.9 inches), but the height is shorter than similar tablets (at a little less than 6 inches), so movies appear smaller on this unit compared to bigger tablets

     EASE TO USE
        The T-Mobile G-Slate is easy to use, and Android 3.0 Honeycomb does a great job of integrating desktop features into what is essentially a mobile operating system. However, Android seems to work better on smaller mobile devices than on tablets, and it feels like Google is trying to throw as many features into the OS as possible, approaching overkill.

     SUMARRY  
       Overall, the T-Mobile G-Slate is a nice tablet, if a little bit on the small side. The 3D video shooting feature helps it stand out from similar units, but the 3D video quality is weak and gimmicky. Whether you buy it with a 4G contract or not, it's an expensive tablet.
     


    Key feratures of T-Mobile G-Slate :

    • T-Mobile HSPA+ data, plus Wifi
    • Display: 8.9-inch 3D-capable multi-touch display
    • Operating System: Android 3.0 (Honeycomb)
    • Processor: Nvidia Tegra 2 dual-core
    • Rear-facing stereoscopic video recorder at 1080p
    • 5MP camera with LED flash
    • 720p video playback, 1080p output via HDMI
    • 32GB of internal memory

    Motorola Xoom Review




        As we put rubber to road on our motorola xoom review, it's important to note that it was only a matter of time before the Android army delivered a proper iPad competitor. Moto's partnership with Google (and use of the 3.0 version of its mobile operating system, Honecomb, has made that assumed inevitability a very serious reality. There can be little question that the Xoom is certainly a contender for the hearts and minds of potential tablet buyers in the market. Besides boasting that fancy new software (a completely redesigned experience masterminded by the man behind webOS, matia duarte, the Xoom is equipped with formidable hardware.
        
       The 1GHz, NVIDIA Tegra 2-based slate boasts a sizable 1GB of DDR2 RAM, 32GB of internal storage, a 10.1-inch, 1280 x 800 capacitive display, 3G connectivity (Verizon on our review unit), along with front and rear facing cameras, HD video capability, and loads of wireless options. Not only is the Xoom clearly competitive (and frankly, more stacked) than most of its competition, Motorola has attempted to futureproof the device by offering a free hardware upgrade down the road which will give the tablet access to Big Red's 4G LTE network. Of course, all this power comes with a cost... literally.The Xoom is quite a pricey piece of technology to own. Still, with all that's packed inside -- and more importantly with what Google has done on the software side -- the
     Xoom could represent the next stage of tablet evolution. 

        The Xoom is a handsomely built tablet, though at a glance, you'll think you've seen this before. Maybe it's that little can be done within the constraints of the tablet form factor (or Motorola isn't really trying), but the general shape and build of the Xoom comes off looking just a teensy bit like the iPad's longer, more dangerous cousin. The back and sides of the device are a similar, machined metal (though Verizon's version is painted a matte black, which is a real fingerprint magnet), the corners are similarly curved, and the front is, of course, all screen. That's not to say the Xoom isn't good looking -- it is -- but there isn't much original going on with the general industrial design that's at play here.
     
        The front-facing camera goes, you should expect pretty standard stuff. We doubt you'll be using this for fashion shoots, but for hairstyling and video chats, it does the trick. Just the fact that it's there is pretty cool, really.

       With the wonderful display, excellent battery and fast processor, the Motorola Xoom offers the closest technology to beating the Apple iPad. There are a few improvements that could be made including the option to expand memory, lighter design or even a built-in stand to make this device even more multimedia-friendly. But the 2MP and 5MP cameras, responsive and large touchscreen and even the Honeycomb operating system make this tablet the perfect device, especially for those who prefer the Android operating system and user interface.



    Key Features

    Large 10.1-inch HD widescreen display
    Dual-core 1GHz processor
    Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) designed specifically for tablets

    BlackBerry PlayBook : Review


      

        Officially announced in September of last year, the long-awaited BlackBerry PlayBook finally goes on sale April 19th, with a starting price of $499. Featuring the all-new BlackBerry Tablet OS, the PlayBook sports a 7" display that makes this tablet more portable for everyday use than Apple's iPad.

       With solid hardware specs, an operating system that utilizes a gesture-based user interface to deliver true multitasking capabilities and a web browser that supports Adobe Flash, on paper the PlayBook appears to have the raw talent to be a contender. Heck, it even won the first ever Tablet World Series before it was ever released. But pre-release hype is one thing and real-world performance is another. RIM hopes to leverage their success in smartphones and emerge as a major competitor in the tablet game when it steps up to the plate. Does the PlayBook have what it takes to crank out a homerun? Read our full review to find out!

          Research In Motion is going through a major transition right now. While much improvement has come to BlackBerry Smartphones over the years and the upcoming BlackBerry 6.1 OS looks to push things even farther, the traditional BlackBerry OS on phones is hitting a point of maturity where RIM's only option is to start with something new. For companies like Motorola, HTC, Samsung and LG, Google's Android operating system has been the life-saving fresh start that has allowed them to compete against Apple's iOS. Not wanting to lose control of their destiny and be regulated to an Android hardware manufacturer trying to differentiate itself from other Android hardware manufacturers, RIM made the decision to play the game on their own terms. Over the past few years RIM has been building up its team, acquiring the players it needs to fix their historic weaknesses and "future proof" the company (a term RIM's Co-CEO Jim Balsillie used on their last Earnings Call). Some of the acquisitions relevant to the BlackBerry PlayBook include:

       QNX - makers of the powerful MicroKernal QNX Neutrino operating system upon which the BlackBerry Tablet OS is builtTorch Mobile - WebKit browser gurus who fixed up BlackBerry's traditionally poor web browsing experience

       The Astonishing Tribe - Creative geniuses and UI experts who, while arriving a little late on the PlayBook project, helped shape some of the aspects of the user experience and will play a much larger role in this moving ahead (a company called Teknision is responsible for a lot of the user interface design on the PlayBook).

       Dataviz - While RIM didn't buy DataViz outright, they bought a lot of their talent and assets including Documents To Go, which allows for Word, Excel, Powerpoint creation and editing (the premium version of these apps are included free on the PlayBook)




     Key Features
    • 7-inch LCD, 1024 x 600, WSVGA, capacitive touch screen with full multi-touch and gesture support
    • BlackBerry Tablet OS with support for symmetric multiprocessing
    • 1 GHz dual-core processor
    • 1 GB RAM
    • Dual HD cameras (3 MP front facing, 5 MP rear facing), supports 1080p HD video recording
    • Video playback: 1080p HD Video, H.264, MPEG, DivX, WMV
    • Audio playback: MP3, AAC, WMA
    • HDMI video output
    • Wi-Fi - 802.11 a/b/g/n
    • Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR
    • Connectors: microHDMI, microUSB, charging contacts
    • Open, flexible application platform with support for WebKit/HTML-5, Adobe Flash Player 10.1, Adobe Mobile AIR, Adobe Reader, POSIX, OpenGL, Java
    • Ultra thin and portable:
    • Measures 5.1"x7.6"x0.4" (130mm x 193mm x 10mm)
    • Weighs less than a pound (approximately 0.9 lb or 400g)
    • RIM intends to also offer 3G and 4G models in the future.

      Sony tablet S Review


            



           The Sony Tablet S marks the company's first foray into Android tablets. The 9.4-inch slate  is no run-of-the-mill iPad lookalike, though. The Tablet S shows that the consumer electronics giant has not lost its design mojo over the years, as this model brings Sony's originality and flair to a tablet market that desperately needs both.





      What distinguishes the Sony Tablet S isn't its specs, which are fairly standard, but its design. Sony's attention to detail is hard to miss.



      Dream Tablet for Gamers


                Another feature that has tons of potential: The Tablet S and the smaller Tablet P (which releases later this year) are the first tablets to be PlayStation Certified. On-board you get the PlayStation hits Crash Bandicoot and Pinball Heroes. Never mind that Crash is a throwback to 1996-era gaming; I still found this port to the Android platform entertaining and compelling. The potential is huge given Sony's library of titles--and that potential only gets multiplied if the company were to ever tie in PlayStation Portable or PlayStation 3 games. Sony is slowly ramping up the titles available; by year-end it hopes to have a couple dozen games, with more on the way. Regardless, with this feature (and with support for PlayStation game controllers), Sony clearly differentiates its tablet for the gaming crowd.

         When you add up the pluses of the Tablet S, suddenly Sony's pricing feels a bit more reasonable.

      Display                          
         The display on the Sony Tablet S reproduces color, video and photos nicely, but even at the highest level of brightness, it appears just a little bit dimmer compared to similar tablets. This tablet uses Sony's TruBlack technology – found in the company's popular Bravia line – in the display, giving the Tablet S an extra edge in image quality.The resolution is 1280 x 800 pixels, so you're getting a little better than 720p high definition (HD) resolution. The display is 9.4 inches tall, which is only marginally smaller than the unit's height, so you won't feel like you're losing any display real estate.

      Ease of Use
         The Sony Tablet S is a pretty fast tablet, and there are no lagging issues where it would feel that the software is trying to keep up with what you're doing. If you have a slow internet connection, you may see some issues there, but overall, it's a very responsive device.
         As mentioned above in the hardware section, it's about the size and weight of an iPad, but slightly smaller than some of the other Android tablets, which are around 10.1 inches tall. The Tablet S feels comfortable to hold; its ergonomics are smooth and polished

      Summary
         Packed with interesting and practical features, the Sony Tablet S is a finely made – if pricey – device that is very responsive and ready for show time right out of the box with its Android 3.1 operating system and included apps. If you have no access to Wi-Fi, there isn't a built-in option to access a mobile network, which will leave you high and dry if you need a constant connection.





      Key Features of Android Based Sony Tablet S (formerly, S1).

      Some of the features of these upcoming Sony tablet S are;
      • Display size will be 9.4-inch (1280×768).

      The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 3G Review







       

          Tablets are basking in well-deserved attention and manufacturers know they need to try hard and make their devices distinct and memorable. Truly unique gadgets are hard to come by these days - especially in Honeycomb land. Which is perhaps part of the reason why iPad is still the one to beat. The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 3G is in for a challenge, and up for it.
          
           Shortly after launch the Galaxy Tab 10.1 was blessed with a custom user experience, called Touch Wiz UX, which literally puts more color into Honeycomb, offers a good selection of customizable widgets and most importantly tries to ease your way into Android for tablets.
         
          The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 offers a feature set that is rivaled by few tablet devices. The first thing that you'll notice is the brilliant display screen. Whether watching videos, surfing the web or using productivity applications, the screen provides a user experience that is remarkably like using a full-sized computer. We were impressed with the speed at which web-based video content loaded and the flawless playback. Switching videos to full-screen mode is a delight. While we expected to see notable pixilation in full-screen, the reality was that the images remained sharp with beautiful color saturation. Videos played every bit as smoothly as we're accustomed to seeing on a desktop
           
         The Galaxy Tab 10.1 has a dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor, a bright 10.1" PLS TFT display of WXGA resolution, a premium set of connectivity options and plenty of storage space. Check out the full list of things going for (and against) the Galaxy Tab 10.1 3G below.

          Apple iPad 2 review:Thin. Light. Fully loaded.


             A year ago, nobody had an iPad. Then Apple sold 15 million of them in just nine months, creating a whole new category of technology product. The iPad may have become, in the words of Steve Jobs, “the most successful consumer product ever launched.”

             It turns out that a lot of people saw the iPad’s appeal: it’s a supremely portable device that’s well suited for checking your e-mail, surfing the Web, playing games, reading books and other stuff you get off the Internet, and even for getting work done. Kids and the elderly have embraced it.

             It’s awfully hard to follow such a massive success, but that’s the task set out for Apple’s new iPad 2, which goes on sale Friday. At least the iPad 2 has this going for it: the original model caught the technology industry so flat-footed that only now are true competitors beginning to appear.

             Those competitors will now face a new iteration of the iPad, one that’s faster, smaller, and lighter than the model introduced a year ago—all while retaining the $499 entry price that has proven all but impossible for Apple’s competitors to match. It’s almost unfair.
