Articles about tablet rumors

One of the tablets we were hoping to hear soon after introduction was AT200, the successor of Toshiba Thrive, a pretty successful 10 inch Android tablet plagued by a thick body. Not the same can be said about Toshiba AT200, which is only 7.7 mm thick, a performance the competition will need to work hard to achieve [full specs with hands on video at IFA Berlin here].Having such a small body not only means ditching full size SD, HDMI and USB ports in favour of the mini versions, but also can ...

My favourite cheap tablet of the moment, the Amazon Kindle Fire is not even shipping, and rumors are flowing already about the next generation model, previously rumored as a 10 inch tablet.Now the rumors have shifted a little bit towards a smaller 8.9 inch Kindle Fire, that's due in the first half of 2012. Personally I welcome the change, as eReading is always about size and weight of the device you're reading on.That was the advantage of the Kindle, it was lightweight and worked wonderf...

I've stumbled upon quite a few Apple news and rumors today so I thought of massing them into one larger post. The three bits regard the upcoming iOS 5.0.1 update, Apple's views on the November coming cheap Amazon Kindle Fire tablet and the possibility of seeing two new iPads next year.Got any Apple news I haven't covered? Drop me a line and I'll update this post. Now read on! Apple iOS 5.0.1 With iOS 5 just out of the door is not surprising at all for Apple to release a minor version soon...

Remember the ASUS roadmap leak from Monday? We've unveiled that day ASUS' plans for the EEE Pad line in 2012, including two new unnamed Android devices and two Windows 8 tablets later that year.For the end of this year ASUS is preparing the Transformer Prime tablet, but what got to my ears is that one of the two 'here products' (not my words) ASUS plans to launch in Q1 2012 is a surprising 7 inch EEE Pad Transformer tablet.Personally I've always found 10 inch tablets a little bit too bul...

Even if Barnes and Noble is not quite the same size as Amazon when it comes to eReading, it's probably the only company right now that's able to compete in the eBook market with Amazon. Their series of Nook eReaders is due for an update soon, as rumors point towards Nook Color 2 preparing for the official announcement in November, probably on the 7th.As expected, the Nook Color 2 will sell for $200 maximum, thus continuing the pricing strategy from Barnes and Noble, plus it makes it easier ...

Just past days we were talking about the much anticipated Blackberry Playbook OS 2.0 update, the one promised from the beginning of the year by RIM, showcased last week, and the one fans are waiting for since the day the tablet launched.Unfortunately rumors point towards a mid-February 2012 delay, as RIM is struggling to get the same Blackberry account work with multiple PINs, as most users have a tablet and a smartphone they want to use with the same account.Personally I tend to believ...

Remember the last week rumor about a mini iPad, a dumbed down version of the current iPad 2 meant as a cheap Apple tablet to compete with the Kindle Fire? Apparently the iPad Mini will be a smaller size tablet, not a product with weaker hardware, which is something we applaud, even if Steve Jobs has said last year that a 7 inch form factor is not good enough to allow for comfortable touch use with current software.How do we know this? Apple just ordered a few samples of 7.85 inch screens ...

Even if the iPad 3 was not officially announced yet, people are talking about it quite a lot, including us here at All Touch Tablet. Since the first and second generations of the Apple tablet were a huge success it's normal for everyone to turn their heads towards the next reincarnation.Since Apple is not used to give a heads up for any of their products before the actual official announcement we'll have to rely on rumors, backed up by various reports, insider info and studies the press and ...

After last year's launch of the 1st gen iPad tablet a few rumors have started to run around about a mini iPad, but were quickly dismissed by Steve Jobs, who said Apple didn't believe in a smaller form factor tablet. 10 inches is perfect and you don't want to mess with perfection, right?Apparently they're going to stick with that, but will offer a mini-iPad version meant to counteract the cheap $199 Amazon Kindle Fire tablet. In this case the 'mini' refers to pricing, not the size of the tabl...

After launching the amazing 7 inch Kindle Fire tablet at an unbelievable price point of just $199 it seems Amazon is rushing again to prepare a larger 10 inch Kindle Fire, one that apparently the company is more proud of.Reports point towards Foxconn as the one manufacturing it. That's a change as for the 7 inch Kindle Fire Amazon worked with Quanta, and for two reasons: Foxconn was busy building iPad 2s and second, Quanta already made the BlackberryPlaybook for RIM, a hardware design it got...
