7-inch Tablet TouchScreen Android Device: Camangi WebStation (video)

November 20th, 2009 4:56 PM | by Christen da Costa

Camangi WebStation

7-inches isn’t enough to get me excited (that sounds so wrong), but the Camangi WebStation ain’t looking to shabby.  The touchscreen, which has an 800×480 resolution, looks to be capacitive based on how sensitive it is, and according to the presenter in the video that’s a glass surface (hello fingerprints).   Currently the tablet like computer is running Android OS 1.5, while the remaining specs include WiFi b/g, 2 megapixel camera, microSD card slot, a second VGA webcam and a USB port.

There’s no official word on the release date, but word on the street is that it’ll carry a price tag of about $400.  For now, I’ll hold off on purchasing anything Android, but based on my limited experience with Motorola’s Droid it’s a super solid OS.  And as previously mentioned, 7-inches is still a bit small for my taste, but for those of you looking for an oversized media player, here you go.

ICD’s Vega Tablet Is Looking Deliciously Tasty

November 13th, 2009 3:37 PM | by Christen da Costa

ICD Vega-1

See you later Apple and Michael Arrington, hellos ICD.  IC who?  Innovative Converged Devices.  Don’t worry, if you haven’t heard of them before I think you’re with the majority, such as myself.  Today they announced something called the Vega and it looks bad ass to say the least.

ICD Vega-2

Inside the 7, 11 and 15-inch touchscreen device (no word on resistive or capacitive; hoping for the latter) is a Tegra powered graphics processor which should make for some explosively fantastic visuals.  Other wonderful features include an Android OS, 3G connectivity, 512MB of RAM, 1.3MP webcam, microSD, Bluetooth 2.1, WiFi b/g, USB 2.0, 3.5mm headphone jack, magnetic dock, accelerometer, ambient light sensor and dual digital microphones. …Continue reading: ICD’s Vega Tablet Is Looking Deliciously Tasty

Troll Touch Announces Touchscreen iMacs (video)

November 9th, 2009 2:22 PM | by Christen da Costa

If you’re still pining after a touchscreen Mac and can’t hold out any longer for the long rumored Apple Tablet computer, well, you’re in luck, kind of.  More like in debt considering the prices I’m about to tell you about.

Troll Touch, whose apparently been outfitting Macs with touch resistive screens for sometime now, just announced the availability of their latest batch of touchscreen units for the newest iMacs and the Macbook White Unibody.  For the iMac you can do it yourself for just $1,099, but that will only score you the smallest size.  Or you can drop $3,699 for the largest iMac complete with touchscreen already installed.  The Macbook version goes for $1,699 and that includes the machine.

At these prices I might concede and buy a Windows based machine.  Also, it’s touch resistive, which we all know can be bit arduous to say the least, though the video above seems to prove otherwise.

Sony Working On Giant Touchscreen Surface (video)

November 6th, 2009 4:21 PM | by Christen da Costa

The Microsoft Surface is super old news at this point, but that hasn’t stopped Sony from teaming up with a company called Atracsys to build their own version of a multitouch table.  Unlike Microsoft’s version, though, Sony’s uses some sort of camera that can be used for not only measuring hand placement but can see faces as well.

Hit the video above.  You’ll notice that their seems to be some lag time on the touchscreen.

Creative Labs Going Into E-Reader Market

November 2nd, 2009 10:24 AM | by Steve Anderson

zii-mediabook-vid-1_01

And there’s yet another competitor throwing its hat into the steadily crowding e-reader arena (we get any more hats in there and we could open up a millenery shop!), but it’s not exactly from a source you’d expect.

Creative Labs is taking a run at the market, with a unit they’re calling the Zii MediaBook.  Now, this actually has some pretty choice add-ons with it, like a touchscreen, text to speech functionality (it will READ you a book) and an SD slot, plus, it will be “Internet-enabled”, though no one’s sure if it means 3G or WiFi.

Also on the unsure list are the Zii’s release date, its price structure and any content delivery methods, (pictures of the device were also in short supply) though word is Creative’s in talks with several different providers, and not just for books, either.  This could be one to watch…or Creative Labs could think better of it and stay out altogether.
