Articles about Motorola tablet

We all agree slate tablets are consumer devices, but there are lots of companies that are tying them on right now to see how they could fit such a device, with almost perfect mobility, into the daily routine.  A testament to this is the number of business tablets announced and/or launched in the past two years. The latest to join the pack is the Motorola ET1, not only a business tablet, but also a rugged one.As with all rugged devices there's a compromise to be made when it comes to weight ...

Motorola Xoom is surely the first tablet that launched in 2011 with the chance to take on the iPad and iPad 2, but it failed due partially to pricing and issues with Android Honeycomb and the lack of apps. Pricing has dropped to $499, Honeycomb is becoming more mature with the release of version 3.2 and developers are starting slowly to port their apps for the big screen.Probably this won't be enough for Xoom's rebirth, so Motorola is rumored to be working on yet another 10 inch Xoom tablet...

Want to hear the latest rumors from Motorola? They're working on other tablets from the Xoom family, that will launch by end year, says Motorola's CEO Sanjay Jha. He didn't actually said those words, but that's what everyone understood when he spoke about the 7 inch form factor, that's more 'fun' and 'portable'. I agree about the 'portable' part, but don't know what he meant by 'fun'.Another interesting thing for me, is that Senjay Jha said he sees the price of tablets going down in the sec...

There were a lot of Motorola Tablet rumors lately, culminating with the teaser that pointed towards a CES 2011 official announcement. Since then we know the name of the tablet could be Droid XOOM (due to trademark patents filed by Motorola) and that users could get the tablet with a 4G LTE modem. It's not certain yet how this will work, but we know not all tablet will get the option and that's a good thing since not all of us live in a 4G covered area (a lot of us don't actually), so there's no ...

It's not even Christmas and funny stories have started. Even Motorola has one, a teaser actually, that asks you if you're willing to skip one generation in 15 days. That's a reference to the upcoming CES IT show where apparently Motorola will announce officially its tablet.Nothing is clear at this point about what this tablet is about. We don't know if it will be a slate tablet, a convertible, a business or consumer oriented tablets, if it will use Android, Windows 7 or Chrome OS. If you're ...

The ink hasn't yet dried on the Android 2.3 Gingerbread release and Google is already showcasing the 3.0 Honeycomb version at the Dive Into Mobile event at San Francisco. The one making the presentation is Andy Rubin, the one in charge with Android development process. And what's interesting is that he's showcasing Honeycomb on a Motorola tablet prototype (one of the ones planned for 2011), button-less, which means you'll be able to use it in any orientation you please, just make sure the screen...

We had quite a few bits of info about Motorola's plans in the tablet market this year, but nothing solid about what's actually happening in Motorola's labs. Apparently the company is starting to pave the way for an imminent launch at the beginning of 2011. As Motorola's co-CEO Sanjay Jha said a few days ago, we we'll be greeted with two models, a 7 inch and a 10 inch version. We don't know yet which OS the both will use, but the 10 inch model is rumored to be smaller and thinner than the iPad, a...

We've speculated a few times about Motorola's plans for a touch tablet, but after all this wait it seems that the Motorola tablet won't be coming in 2010, but at the beginning of the next year. It's what everybody says: we don't want to built just a tablet, but launch a product that can make a difference in consumers' minds, so everybody tries to hold on to their horses till they have something they can actually sell. I can dig that, but hope Motorola won't just wait, and actually has something ...

Motorola is one of the big names that announced its intention to get into the touch tablet market, but didn't manage to launch anything yet. That's a pity, as Apple is acquiring all the market share possible with its iPad tablet, that despite its shortcomings is selling like hotcakes. Now it seems that Motorola teamed up with Verizon Wireless to launch in Autumn a TV tablet, just in time to compete with RIM's Blackberry Blackpad.What make things interesting is that Motorola and Verizon Wirel...

Rumors are great, they fuel the IT press (and I'm thankful for that), but sometimes rumors don't come true (OK, many times they don't) and that's frustrating. Is not as frustrating as hearing the same rumor again and again, updated with just bits on info, like the one about Motorola building tablets, launched a while ago in January. It seems now that some analysts have heard that Motorola is really planning something and they're gonna launch a 10 inch tablet till the end of the year, running And...
