Quanta Redvale MeeGo Atom Tablet appears at Computex 2010

| If MeeGo based devices even have a chance on
| the market is still a big question mark.
| MeeGo got created by Intel and Nokia earlier
| this year by merging Moblin and Maemo. MeeGo
| is a Linux-based software platform and so
| will be Google Chrome OS. And of course HP
| has now Palm's webOS, which at its heart is
| also Linux.

Asus Challenges Apple's iPad with Eee Pad
,----[ Quote ]
| When chairman Jonney Shih unveiled the Asus
| Eee Pad on stage at Computex today, the crowd
| of journalists almost rushed the stage with
| excitement.
|
| Unlike the similarly-named Asus Eee Tablet,
| which is designed to compete with e-Readers
| like the Nook and the Kindle, the Eee Pad is
| designed to go head-to-head with the Apple
| iPad.
|
| The Eee Pad is a Windows 7-based device that
| uses an Intel CULV Core 2 Duo processor and a
| touch-sensitive capacitive screen. It can be
| used as a multimedia player, e-reader, Web-
| browser, or, with the help of a keyboard
| docking station, full-featured PC. Asus will
| be releasing two versions of the Eee Pad. The
| EP101TC will come with a 10-inch screen and
| the EP121 will ship with a 12-inch screen.
| Asus claims both systems will deliver at
| least 10 hours of battery life.

Microsoft snubs the OLPC tablet
,----[ Quote ]
| THE ONE LAPTOP PER CHILD project has said
| that its upcoming XO-3 tablet will not use a
| Windows operating system.
|
| OLPC's chairman Nicholas Negroponte has
| always wanted the Vole to join the party.

| Windows available for the earlier XO-2, which
| was based on an ARM processor.

One Laptop Per Child Revamps Tablet Plans
,----[ Quote ]
| The One Laptop Per Child foundation's aim to
| create the world's most innovative tablet
| computer for the developing world just took
| a giant leap toward reality. But as is often
| the case, reality may not be quite as
| exciting as imagination.
|
| On Thursday the foundation announced a
| partnership with chip maker Marvell to
| collaborate on a sleek and cheap touch-
| screen tablet for developing-world school
| children, a device it now plans to launch at
| the Consumer Electronics Show in January
| 2011 for less than $100. One Laptop Per
| Child (OLPC) says that's close to two years
| ahead of its scheduled release for the so-
| called XO-3, the long-awaited upgrade to the
| non-profit's XO, the so-called "hundred-
| dollar laptop" launched in 2007.
