Android tablets have now officially outsold Apple

I personally think this is kind of funny, because a few years ago, Gartner predicted that Apple would … [Read more...] about Android tablets have now officially outsold Apple

Ashton hit the stage to say that he is apparently on Lenovo's team, and they even had a comedy sketch to show him at the company HQ.

Apple’s big announcements: The iPad Air and new iPad Mini!

This is the iPad … [Read more...] about Apple’s big announcements: The iPad Air and new iPad Mini!
RCA Mobile TV Tablet
While trying to establish my contacts before the holidays, I decided to check in at someone at RCA. As it turns out, RCA has been defunct for years, but the brand name is still being used. I missed this announcement at CES last January, and I find this odd, because I just registered for CES 2014 today. Coincidentally enough, RCA is planning on launching their RCA Mobile … [Read more...] about RCA Mobile TV Tablet
Jimmy Kimmel’s comments reveal everything wrong with Fox News’ tech
I've always like Jimmy Kimmel, and honestly think he is funnier than Jay Leno, Jimmy Fallon, but probably not Conan O'Brien. Jimmy was able to point out a terrible flaw with Fox News and their new technology. Apparently, Fox News has coated its newsroom with giant, 55-inch tablets. I have to admit, I would love it if I had a tablet that big. Yeah, it would be nice, and you … [Read more...] about Jimmy Kimmel’s comments reveal everything wrong with Fox News’ tech
