Over the past week I’ve found a set of photos of the new Archos e-reader. I also found an 11 minute long hands on video on Youtube. The photos and the video show the same hardware, but they also show radically different software. The photos were posted by Blogeee, a French gadget blog, and they [...]

A brief hands on with Opera for Tablets
January 6th, 2011 · 1 Comment · software news
I stopped by the Opera booth at Pepcom this evening. This picture shows the old Opera Mobile running on my 9″ Android tablet and the new Opera for Tablets running on a Lenovo convertible. Oh yeah, there’s also going to be a Windows 7 version. That’s new.
Hands on with Marvell’s new tablet prototype
November 23rd, 2010 · No Comments · hardware news
Slashgear got some face time recently with Marvell’s newest prototype. You’re looking at 10″ Android tablet running on a multi-core 1.5GHz Armada 628 CPU. Like their previous prototypes, this one is a reference design that Marvell will customize to suit an OEM partner. Video is after the break.
Cybook Orizon hands on video
November 7th, 2010 · 2 Comments · hardware reviews, Sipix, video
Mike Cane found this video on Youtube. It shows some of the abilities of the new Cybook Orizon. You also get a side by side comparison with the PRS-650, which unfortunately shows that the Orizon has the same gray screen problem as the Oyo. But, the Orizon doesn’t have the faded text problem, which should [...]
First hands on with the Asus DR-900 (video)
November 4th, 2010 · 3 Comments · hardware reviews, video
I just came across the first hands on review of the new Asus DR-900. The review is in Spanish, but I linked to a translated version. Start here. All in all, the reviewer sounds impressed. He has a few problems becuase this e-reader was released for the Chinese market, but none were insurmountable. I can [...]
Hands on with a new E-ink watch
November 2nd, 2010 · No Comments · video
Charbax is one of those people I follow because he finds neat things. He’s in this video showing off his new E-ink watch. Get this: it has Bluetooth. It’s tied into his phone, and whenever he gets an email the watch notifies him. How cool is that? via Netbook News
Sharp Galapagos tablets hands on video
October 7th, 2010 · No Comments · hardware news, video
You probably already know about Sharp’s 2 new “e-readers”, the 5.5″ and 10.8″ Galapagos tablets (running Android OS). They’re on display at Ceatac this week, and I’ve been waiting for a good hands on video. (Shooting a video on the show floor is difficult at the best of times.) Fortunately for us, SlashGear Japan posted [...]
iriver Cover Story hands on video
October 6th, 2010 · 2 Comments · hardware news, video
The folks behind the iriver Story blog shot this video of the new Cover Story. Aside from the fact he speaks to fast, it’s pretty good. You might want to click through and watch it in HD on Youtube.
Brief hands on with Marvell’s Mobylize 10″ tablet (video)
October 1st, 2010 · No Comments · video
Netbook News was at GigaOm Moblize 2010 yesterday, and they spent a few minutes talking with Marvell. NN got a chance to take a look at the Mobylize, the 10″ Android tablet that Marvell is hawking for the education market. I’ve seen this tablet back in February at TOC. That one was just the Moby [...]
First Real hands on of the Sharper Image Literati (NYTimes)
September 29th, 2010 · 2 Comments · hardware reviews
The very first in depth of the Literati was posted yesterday in the New York Times. If you’re wondering why I didn’t get it first, well, as great as I am I’m not the NYTimes. The reviewer had some fairly good insights into the design of the Literati: To turn the page, you use left [...]
