ASUS will release a quad-core, 3D Honeycomb tablet in 2011

Asus doesn’t really have a tablet to proud to compete with the likes of iPad, Motorola, Samsung or Xoom, Galaxy Tab  yet, but the work, and when he comes out of Asus CEO Jerry Shen wants everyone to know that will push the envelope in some significantly.

According to Shen, ASUS will launch a 3D Tablet running a quad-core processor, even in 2011. Although Shen has refused to be drawn into a commitment to any particular chip quad-core right now, there is only one to really talk: NVIDIA Tegra next iteration, code named Kal-El (after last Krypton Son), which provide five times the performance on Tegra 2, and the ability to stream videos that are twice the resolution of 1080p.

Given the power of Kal-El, a compressed 3D would not be too difficult to manage: Kal-El certainly has the power to withdraw any item on the screen twice, once for each eye. In fact, says Shen quad-core processor is integrated into their plans and are absolutely essential for smooth video playback 3D at a resolution of 1080p.

Overall, Shen said that Asus plans to become the second player on the shelves in late 2012, hoping to get a market share of five to eight percent by then. It seems to be pretty naive ambitious domination IPAD given full market tablet, but much will depend on the ability of ASUS cons IPAD undercut in price.

ASUS smartphone that says that Android will be captured in 2011, but may be considered Phone Windows 7 in 2012, after the impact with Microsoft besieged Finnish mobile giant Nokia was a little 'clearer.

2011 seems to be a do-or-break ASUS year. Asus is still dead water has built its entire business netbook "back in recent years. They can successfully transition to post-PC age, or left?

Chinese Students Built "iPad" for his Girlfriend

What is the best way to show a girl you love her? Sure, you can always buy the iPad, but why not build one for him?

Chinese art students wanted Wei Xinlong to demonstrate its commitment to its long-distance girlfriend by building a tablet PC with touch screen in their daily life dates for video chat. This way, when he left to work in Shenzhen, they will be able to stay in touch easier.

As a student at the University of North normal in Changchun, Jilin, Wei was familiar with electronics and engineering, and found most of the answers to the questions I had online. He bought most parts of the unit second-hand market and dismantled laptop recovered. Even incorporates some of the parties as a conductor of heat from a soda can and an aluminum bar. Wei has been dedicated to the unit for 10 days before the end, and even managed to put an Apple logo with rhinestones on it.

Characteristics of its "iPad" includes touch screen, integrated camera, microphone, four USB slots, a LAN port and works as a lithium battery. It may be a step back from Apple's best selling product, but still not able to read e-books, watch movies, listen to music and even play video games. It costs only 800 yuan Wei (126 dollars) to build than the price of about $ 500 Apple iPhone.

Wei remarkable final product is really a representation of hard work and dedication. It will definitely strengthen their long distance relationship and her boyfriends around the world to shame.

Alienware M11x R3

The 11.6-inch MacBook Air is the most perfect laptop I’ve ever owned, but that thin, miraculous wedge of glass and aluminum isn’t for everyone. As a writer, it’s the notebook I’ve always dreamed of, the laptop analog to the iPad… but as a gamer, it’s woefully under-specced. I forgive the MacBook Air for this, of course: as long as you aren’t running anything graphically intensive, the Air feels so fast thanks to its SSD that the idea of specs itself seem meaningless.

What if you’re a gamer who wants massive performance in the smallest footprint, though? Enter Alienware with their third foray into the ultraportable market, and if the specs rumored by Dell-Lab is anything to go on, we’re looking at a beast of a machine crammed into a form factor the size of a couple of MacBook Air’s pressed together.

The alleged specs include an 11.6-inch LCD (1366×768, LED-backlit), up to 8GB DDR3 RAM, up to 750GB storage or 256GB SSD, WWAN 3G/LTE/WiMAX 4G, and shipping in either red or black soft touch material. The proposed CPUs are Intel Core i5-2537M, Core i7-2617M and the Core i7-2657M.

Sandy Bridge CPUs! LTE/WiMax 4G options! Up to 8GB of RAM! All in under a foot’s worth of real-estate. In fact, the only thing not listed is the GPU, which we would assume — being an Alienware machine and all — would be similarly beefy to the rest of the specs. It should surpass the Nvidia 335M (1GB) used on the M11x and M11x R2, but the post coyly says there is not even confirmation of a discrete GPU yet. We’re betting Alienware sticks with discrete graphics, otherwise it takes the chance of massively disappointing consider number of M11x fans out there.

With the M11x currently at $599 (and about ready to be phased out) and the M11x R2 at $799, we should see the M11x R3 starting for under $1000 with the same (if not better) battery life. Rumor has it that these will be shipping some time in April.
