$100 Tablet Launching This Week

Tablet

The OLPC XO tablet has been in the works for years now, but we haven’t seen anything concrete about it until now. Apparently, Nicholas Negroponte’s baby is finally ready to come into this world. OLPC will be officially launching the OLPC XO 3.0 tablet at the CES this week.

Like the OLPC XO laptop, it will also have a rugged case and can be charged using a hand crank or a solar panel. It can get around 10 minutes of runtime from one minute of cranking. The OLPC XO 3.0 will be powered by the Marvell Armada PXA 618 processor, which minimizes power consumption to extend battery life.

Forget the iPad 3…How About The iPad 4!

We’re only a few weeks away from an iPad 3, and already the rumor mill is churning out stories about a new iPad.

Taiwanese newspaper DigiTimes says we’re going to see an iPad 4 in October.

This supposed iPad 4 will feature seriously improved internals “so as to compete with an array of Android-, Wintel- or WoA (Windows on ARM)-based tablet PCs to be released in the fourth quarter.”
