Remember the JooJoo tablet and the scandal around it and Michael Arrington? It seems Fushion Garage is well and fine, whilst the lawsuit is developing and is already preparing JooJoo 2 tablet for early 2011. There aren't many specs to talk about, but we do know about the general direction JooJoo 2 is heading and that is a Google Android OS.

Further proof that tablet PCs are becoming mainstream is the growing number of outsiders joining in the market with their distinct products.One such outsider was Bresser. Another is Eken.

Hence, the HTC Desire success.As time passed, Google improved on their Android and are now at version 2.2, called FroYo. There are seve...

Amazon is one big company. They sell the most online, in US, and managed in past years to 'discover' and grow a new niche thanks it its eBook store and Kindle eReader. Now it seems they're preparing to expand again, beyond online sales, with a new Android application store and, presumably, an Android Tablet to help boost the app store (and vice versa). You might be tempted to think that Amazon is not in their right minds to compete with Google and Apple, but seeing the power and resources the co...
