HOW SONY TABLET P COULD REVOLUTIONIZE TABLETS FOREVER




Some time ago Sony made a mistake.Then instead of pulling it back they gave it a name and decided to market it.To say that Sony opened the doors of boo-ing on itself when it launched a folding tablet would not be off the mark.Ever since the Sony Tablet P left the factory,it's been inviting criticism everywhere it goes. So why did the folding tablet idea fall flat? To be honest,I do firmly believe that someone had to make tablets more portable and try out the folding tablets idea.But one can hardly say that Sony did justice to it.Dont get me wrong.Its probably not Sony's fault.And in the long run, it might even be a good thing for tablets .This is why I think Sony took the wrong step in the right direction.


First the wrong steps

FOLDING SCREEN

One is because of several inches of dead plastic between the 2 halves of the screens.A smaller separation might have been easier to accept but there's a significant gap between the two screen which tends to annoy the user and takes the fun out of several apps,specially in games.
PRICE
Secondly,though it weighs only 0.82lbs,its no light thing on your pockets.It leaves you with 550$ less and thats alota money for a tablet,even the best of tablets.(The new iPad costs less and has a lot more to boast about.)
THE RIGHT DIRECTION
The only thing better than a smart phone is a tablet,right?What if our tablets were as easy to take with us as our phones?The tablet P might not have many fans right now but once flexible screens become more common,newer versions of Tablet P might be more succesful.This could open a new field for tablets to compete in.Folding tablets might become as common as folding cell phones were back in the day.But all this only if Sony brings down the price to match its rivals prices.

New iPad to hit UK markets on 16th March 2012



Apple finally unveiled its long awaited upgrade of the iPad 2.And this time,Apple has really outdone itself and it seems Tim Cook has filled Steve Jobs shoes (if they could ever be filled).Why?The answer is simple.The answer is HD.Very very HD.More HD than the eye can possibly comprehend.And alot of other features as well. You can expect to find the following specs in your New iPad:

the iPad 3 resolution would be 2048 x 1536 pixels on a 9.7in screen.The resolution is so high,that it needs an on board grahpics acceleraor/
It weighs only 260grams with a depth of .37inch
comes in as much 64GB.
Retina display( the reason its so HD)
Its 4G!
5Mega Pixel iSight camera
Video recording, HD (1080p) up to 30 frames per second with audio.(Rispect!!)
Its obvious Apple is in no mood of letting go of an inch of its market share. Its going to be a very long time before any competitor comes anywhere near the iPad 3.

iPad3: Apple's last hope?


With Steve Jobs gone and the comparative failure of the iPhone 4s to impress like its predecessors, the iPad3 might be Apple's last hope to stay alive in the tech race.And with competitors like Google, I don't envy Apple's CEO much these days.And to put the cherry on the pressure pie, Apple doesnt only have to beat competition,they also have to meet all these expectations rising from all the rumors. Here's a list of things Apple fans are expecting in the next iSomething:


1. iOS 5.1. Everyone's expecting it,Apple better not be lagging on this one

2.Its going to have a quadcore processor(too wishful?)

3. 8MP camera
4.Apple iPad 3 display
A retina display was widely predicted for the iPad 2, but of course the current iPad doesn't have a double-resolution display: for now, that's something you'll only get in the iPhone4 and iPhone 4s.Could an iPad3 retina display be on the way?
