One of the things I've been meaning to test for a while is a Bluetooth wireless keyboard. My dream came true a few weeks ago when I've received the SHARKK Mobile Bluetooth Keyboard for iPad 2.It's an aluminum keyboard built with a similar functionality to the already famous Zagg Zaggmate (details here), but one major difference: it [easyazon-link asin="B0069OAHUO" locale="us"]costs four times less[/easyazon-link], ~$26.So, is this keyboard worth the attention of heavy typists that always...

I've been testing so many iPad cases here at AllTouchTablet.com in the past two years and I'm amazed by how many designs (visually and technically) there are, each with their Pros and Cons. This post is a review of the Evio Harmony Dual Tone Leather Folio, an agenda style case for iPad 2 [official page link on Evio's website].It's the kind of construction that you've seen a few times already, but it's got a nice stylish design and a few tricks to make it stand out from the crowd. Let's go ah...

One of the most promising tablets of the end of 2011 and beginning of 2012 is the ASUS EEE Pad Transformer Prime, which we've covered extensively on AllTouchTablet.com. It had/has its issues, but so far Asus lives up to the task of solving them, making world's first quad core tablet one of the few real alternatives to the Apple iPad 2.So given the fact you're pretty familiar with this subject I'm not going to make a (new) presentation of the tablet, but merely point you towards a few clips w...

If you're looking to buy the best Android tablet you can't go wrong with ASUS EEE Pad Transformer Prime, world's first quad-core tablet that uses the Nvidia Tegra  3 processor. The docking keyboard is probably the best accessory, as it adds a second battery prolonging autonomy to 18 hours and also allows you to type faster with the chiclet keyboard, or move the cursor on screen with the larger touchpad, just like you normally do on a laptop.These are the things that make the ASUS Transforme...

I've always said the biggest problem with tablets was the price and I was right, as the Amazon Kindle tablet, the first brand model to get under $200, sells like hot cakes. Nook Tablet is also a tablet worth considering, but both of them feature customized user experiences that rely heavily on the two companies content and don't have access to the Android Marketplace.If you want a cheap 7 inch tablet you now have the Archos 70b (it'll be here in a few weeks actually), the first Honeycomb tab...

With approximately two weeks left from this year, Christmas shopping fever has hit all major retailers, so I thought of putting together a small guide for tablets, eReaders and accessories, in case you wish to make someone happy by gifting them such gadgets.I'll be linking to my previous posts a lot, but don't worry, as almost all of these articles are updated to reflect the changes that have taken place during the year. So let's not keep you waiting too much and check out what your gift opt...

Browsing through the possible subjects to write about today, I've decided nothing is really worth mentioning, so thought of making a list with my previsions for 2012, with the things most likely to happen and things I would like to see happening.Don't knock on my door in 12 months from now is your company went bankrupt by making business decisions based on what you read here, so please be advised this is just a post with what I think will happen in 2012 with the tablet market. People far ...

I've been reading lots of reports lately about netbook sales which have started to plummet as tablets started to take over consumers preferences. I'm pretty sure no analyst would have predicted this before the launch of the iPad.Right now the situation is not that desperate, as for example in 2011 ASUS has sold three netbooks for each tablet, with other manufacturers probably experiencing similar ratios, but this doesn't take into account the few dozen millions iPad's sold this year. ASUS kn...

With the IT industry being fast paced as it is, it's normal to see some specs being improved year after year, and the screen resolution is one of the specs taking a huge leap since the introduction of tablets, as it's now normal to see 1280 x 800 px resolutions on 10 inch displays of even smaller (8.9", 7.7" and even 5" as the case with Samsung Galaxy Note).But the thing is our vision is not improving at the same pace with the technology we're using on a daily basis. Higher resolutions tend ...

Deciding which tablet to buy is not always a matter of price and specs. If you go only for price you might find yourself spending more money after the initial purchase to get accessories, apps, or simply another tablet that meets your demands. Going for specs is also bad, since the software is the one that matters most today. Without it a tablet is worthless. See the Playbook example, a small 7 inch slate with great specs, but let down by the operating system and the lack of apps.That's why ...
