Archos 8 Home Tablet gets unboxed and examined

We’ve already gotten our hands on the Archos 7 Home Tablet, but the Archos 8 has been considerably harder to come by, and hasn’t made much of a public showing since a brief appearance courtesy of the FCC back in May. The folks at Archos Lounge have no…

Notion Ink Adam gets detailed, pictured in its latest form

The folks from Notion Ink certainly haven’t been shy about showing off their Adam tablet in prototype form, but they unfortunately haven’t been revealing anything more than the most basic specs. That’s now changed with MWC, however, which seems to have made Notion Ink quite a bit more talkative. As we’d heard previously, the Adam is Tegra 2-based with a dual-core ARM CORTEX -A9 processor, and it packs a 10-inch transflective screen with a 1,024 x 600 resolution courtesy of Pixel Qi. Also now confirmed is a swiveling 3-megapixel camera, three USB ports, an HDMI out for full 1080p video, a promised 16 hours of battery life, built-in WiFi, 3G and Bluetooth, and some welcome touches like an ambient light sensor, a proximity sensor and, of course, an accelerometer. As you can see above, the device has also undergone yet more changes from the last prototype we saw at CES, and you can check out a few more pics (and the rest of the specs) by hitting up the links below.

[Thanks, Prateek and Nasman]

ASUS gets official with swivel-screen multitouch Eee PC T101MT

Thanks to the oh-so-revealing pages of the FCC, we already knew that ASUS had yet another multitouch-enabled Eee PC in the works, but there’s just nothing quite like the satisfaction of seeing an official portal launched to celebrate the reality of being. The Eee PC T101MT is a swivel-screen netvertible that packs a 10.1-inch resistive multitouch display (1,024 x 600), Windows 7, up to 2GB of DDR2 memory, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, a 160GB or 320GB hard drive, 0.3 megapixel webcam and a 6.5 hour battery. You’ll also get a VGA output, a trio of USB 2.0 sockets, Ethernet audio in / out, an SD / SDHC / SDXC card reader (nice!) 500GB of internet-accessible ASUS WebStorage and your choice of white or black. Per usual, there’s nary of a mention of a price or release date just yet, but you can check out what fun awaits you in the demonstration video just past the break.

Camangi Webstation drops to $275, still a tough sell

Is it all the unfavorable reviews or the loads of Android tablets on the way that’s pushed Camangi to lower the price on its 7-inch Android running-Webstation? We may never know, but the good news is that the original $399 price has been slashed to $275. The $125 price drop isn’t too shabby, but we’re thinking they’d have better luck selling this one if there were less complaints about its sluggish performance and buggy resistive touchscreen. Perhaps we’re just being too stingy with our money — will you be going shopping this weekend?

Wacom Cintiq 21UX multitouch tablet caught in the wilderness of a live presentation

Oh you’re tired of tablets, are you? Pray tell, how many multitouch 21.3-inch tablets have you seen so far then? A prototype of Wacom’s update to the ultra-high end 21UX has been shown off at a recent CAD presentation, so we figured we might as well take a look at the thing — given its predecessor’s $2,999 starting price, we’re unlikely to be buying one any time soon. So dive past the break for a glimpse — just a glimpse — of the new multitouch goodness taking place. After you’re done with that, you can check out the source link for more pictures of what’s sure to be the new state of the art in graphics tablets.

LG says it’s launching a product to ‘compete with Apple and Amazon,’ maybe by April

LG isn’t dishing out many details about this one just yet, but company exec KW Kim (head of LG’s Middle East and Africa Operations) has told Emirates Business that LG will soon be launching a product — “maybe by April” — that “will compete with Apple and Amazon.” And, well, that’s about it. As you may recall, however, LG has been showing off various bits of technology for e-book readers over the past little while, including a solar-powered system designed specifically for e-readers and, of course, some flexible e-paper displays that have already turned up in the Skiff Reader. In other LG news, Kim also dropped word that the company is talking with Etisalat about a new line of “notebooks” (possibly netbooks) that would use “Google’s operating system,” although it’s not clear if he was referring to Chrome or Android.
