GIVEN the old-school setting, it could not seem more incongruous.

Asus CEO Jerry Shen today revealed some further details on the company’s tablet plans at a press conference for its quarterly earnings, reports PC World . Now we finally have some firmer release dates to look forward to, as well as better pricing estimates. The most exciting news surrounds the 10-inch Eee Pad EP101TC , which will retail under $399, and will come out in March 2011. It was initially supposed to run Windows Embedded Compact 7 (an updated version of Windows CE), but Asus announced last month that it would be focusing on Android instead for that device. Oddly, Shen also mentioned that the company is working on another 10-inch tablet that’s running Windows Embedded Compact 7 and will be released around January for under $499. From what we can gather, Asus hasn’t mentioned this alternative 10-inch tablet before.

Computerworld - The rapid spread of tablet devices like the Apple iPad could prove to be a boon to providers of online storage services as users seek ubiquitous data access and synchronization across multiple mobile platforms for devices that don't have much internal storage capacity. The flexibility that comes with cloud storage "is not just a nice thing to have but a necessity when you're dealing with storage-limited devices," said Avi Greengart, a consumer devices analyst at research firm Current Analysis in Sterling, Va. "If you have a device based on flash memory, you don't want to sync everything." Most of the mobile tablet devices today use NAND flash technology to offer limited memory capacity, typically 64GB or less.

La tablette tactile Joojoo, développée par la société singapourienne Fusion Garage, est accessible depuis hier à la vente en France, mais aussi en Grande-Bretagne et en Allemagne, sur le site Internet de la société, thejoojoo.com.
