MSI jumps aboard tablet bandwagon
January 28, 2010
MSI is plus ready to tackle the tablet market with word on a new 10" tablet that will run on an NVIDIA Tegra 2 chipset. What does that mean for the casual user? We're talking about a generally low ability device which translates to a decent battery life even when multi-tasking (Internet surfing, MP3 playing in the background, etc) on the device. DigiTimes claims that the MSI tablet will reach at selected markets sometime in the second half of the year, residing in the $500 price point region which would more or less pit it against the most basic iPad model. It will run on Google's Android operating system, and a confirmed specification would be it being able to run full HD video at 1080p resolution. Hopefully issues like storage, memory and wireless connectivity options will be at least on par with the iPad whether it were to stand a chance in the growing tablet market.

DigitalRise PC-729 tablet
November 18, 2009
The DigitalRise PC-729 tablet offers a refreshing look at the tablet market, since it comes with a 7" touchscreen display, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, all powered by an ARM9 processor. One major drawback would be its 128MB RAM which by today's standards, doesn't seem to cut the mustard any more, while its 7" touchscreen display has a relatively low resolution of just 480 x 272 pixels. Would those obvious setbacks cause you to fork out $355 for the DigitalRise PC-729?
