Best Tablet PC Reviews, News and 2012 tablets

You remember the Acer Iconia dual screen laptop? The one announced with other Acer tablets that are still not on market till this day? Apparently Acer was more successful at bringing their dual screen monster in stores, as you can now pre-order it in US and Canada from Amazon.com.The price is pretty high, as expected, at $1200 plus taxes, but considering you're getting very powerful hardware and two 14 inch screen I guess it's a good investment for an early adopter. And unlike the Toshiba Li...

I will try from now on to focus not just on tablets, but also on accessories for them, as there's a big market for them since tablets caught on with consumers interest. And since the iPad 2 is here (I know, too much Apple news) let's take a look at the newly released JBL OnBeat loudspeaker dock for iPad/iPad 2/iPhone and iPod touch. So you don't have to get an iPad 2 to use the JBL On Beat.That's always a good thing when you're not limited to just one product. Imagine how those who bough acc...

You all know how hard it is right now to get an iPad 2, as demand has far surpassed delivery capabilities of Apple, with online orders reportedly delayed for a few weeks right now and limited in-store availability. So it's hard to get an iPad 2 today, but our chances are getting a little bit better, as Amazon just listed the iPad 2 in all its versions and colors.This is not a guarantee you'll get it in mail in a few days, but because there are quite a few stores offering it on Amazon it's po...

Viewsonic is not the most known tablet brand but they managed to bring the ViewSonic ViewPad 7 tablet to market last year, so that's an achievement, proving that the company is serious in establishing itself on this niche. And their commitment continues with an interesting Try Before You Buy plan for ViewPad 7, that's right now in effect in UK. It's not quite "before you buy", as you have to purchase the ViewPad 7 tablet yourself, but in 30 days you can decide to return it and Viewsonic pays for...

It's Monday, so let's take a short look at a few iPad 2 news that came over the past few days, and so that you won't say I'm writing too much iPad 2 news lately, I'm going to mix all those news into this post.First let's take a look at the sales success, as last Friday the iPad 2 launched in 25 countries, all stores experiencing long waiting lines, not as big as those in New York, but significant nonetheless, which proves Apple successfully crossed over the US border with their second genera...

Software updates are a part of our lives, we even buy a tablet with an older version of an operating system in the hope it will be updated sooner of later to the latest issues of the OS. That was the case last year with the Dell Streak 5, that initially came with Android 1.6 and this year it will be the case again with the HTC Flyer, which will ship in the first batch with Android 2.3, so early adopters will hope for an update to Honeycomb in the months to come.Well, in this situation is eas...

Probably you're not a big fan of Linux. I know I'm not, but I have to say Ununtu is one of the nicest operating systems for laptops and desktop you can try that's not Microsoft or Apple made. Now they're looking at tablets a the next frontier to cross (here are the previous posts on their attempts). We all know it's hard to make a desktop operating system play nice with tablets and the best example for that is Windows 7, which is not the most user friendly OS for tablet use.But this doesn't ...

Have you seen that most iPad/iPad accessories from Apple do one thing and one thing only? Why can't they fit a camera connection kit, the AV dock, the card reader to one device and charge a little bit more for that? It all has to do with profits, of course: why sell one 45$ accessory when you could sell three dedicated ones for 30$ each, right?Well, I kind of hate that and that's why I've decided to tell you about the third party 5-in-1 Connection Kit from an unknown iPad accessories manufac...

I still remember the ads from TV that promote BlackBerry App World: they show a bunch of people sharing photos from their RIM device, writing emails, searching for locations, you know, the stuff any smartphone does today, and then they slap the "only in Blackberry App World" phrase at the end. I can't imagine me being one of the guys paid to say those lies on TV.... But anyway, let's move on to the real news of this Friday: indeed Blackberry Playbook will support Android apps at launch.This...

It's been a while since we've talked about new touchscreen technologies here at All Touch Tablet, but today it's the perfect time to take a look at an innovative discovery made by a small Chinese company called Greendix: touchscreen displays fitted with solar panels. Yeap, it's that good in concept: additionally to the touch screen layer fitted on the normal display you also put a transparent solar panel that boosts battery life when direct sun light hits the surface of the screen.This tech ...
