			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The new Acer smartphone with the soul of a tablet perfectly combines  the capabilities of a smartphone with a tablet-like format: a huge 4.8-inch  widescreen with a 21:9 aspect ratio and a super cool chassis.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/acer-android-smartphone.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1278  aligncenter" title="acer-android-smartphone" src="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/acer-android-smartphone.jpg" alt="acer-android-smartphone-with-4.8-inch-display" width="450" height="453" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-1277"></span></p>

<p><strong>POWERFUL </strong></p>
<p>Inside the product beats the powerful 1GHz Snapdragon processor, which,  in addition to the large screen, turns this smartphone into a perfect  game console.</p>
<p>Together with 6-axis motion sensing (Gyroscope +  accelerometer), this smartphone will exceed any gaming expectation.</p>
<p>Equipped with an 8MP camera and LED flash, and a 2MP front camera for high quality IP video calling.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Acer enters the tablet arena with a very clear objective in mind: complete its range of products in support of its goal to simplify content consumption – a strategy which began with the development of Acer&#8217;s multimedia sharing system, Clear.fi.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/acer-10-inch-android-tablet.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1268  aligncenter" title="acer-10-inch-android-tablet" src="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/acer-10-inch-android-tablet.jpg" alt="acer-10-inch-android-tablet" width="475" height="349" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-1267"></span></p>
<p>Acer&#8217;s strategy is based on the concept of sharing multimedia content and enjoying it across any device, and Tablets are ideal devices for this purpose.</p>
<p>With close to 19 million tablets sold worldwide in 2010, 54.8 million units expected to be sold in 2011, and 208 million units forecasted for 2014, the market seems to confirm this idea.</p>
<p>Mobility, which has always been part of Acer&#8217;s DNA, finds a new form of expression in the range of tablets on offer, which feature various display sizes and models designed to fit different kinds of usage scenarios.</p>
<p>Weight and display size have a huge impact on the user experience. While devices with bigger screens are used to share and enjoy content, smaller devices are often used to create content &#8211; taking photos, recording videos or sending messages.</p>
<h1>A 10.1&#8243; Android tablet for a superb mobile and home entertainment experience</h1>
<p>Sleek, smart and full of innovative features, the 10.1&#8243; full capacitive touch screen tablet with Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity ensures an optimal on-screen experience from every angle.</p>
<p>Aluminum casing provides a cool look and feel, while its high gloss finish decorated with engraved patterns creates a subtle sophistication. And despite being just 13.3mm thick, it&#8217;s powerful enough to guarantee fun and productivity whether you need it .</p>
<p>Designed for HD entertainment, this tablet comes with a high resolution, high color contrast display, allowing you to play or share HD video with your friends wherever you are. Complete with a built-in HDMI port and 1080p capability, you can also use it to enjoy multimedia content in Full HD on your big screen TV.</p>
<p>But the best of all is that on this tablet you will be able to run and play premium HD arcade games and complex online 3D games, thanks to the 10 point multitouch and gyro meter control, that guarantees an entertainment experience on par with the best game consoles.</p>
<p><strong>Price and Availability: </strong>Acer 10.1-inch Android Tablet will be available April 2011 for price not yet revealed by Acer in any market.</p>
<h1><strong>7&#8243; Android Tablet: the epitome of mobility</strong></h1>
<p>Don&#8217;t be fooled by its ultra-compact size: the 7&#8243; tablet is fully featured and takes your mobile experience to the next level.</p>
<p>On the 7&#8243; (1280&#215;800) 16:10 aspect ratio full touch screen, you can enjoy games, photos, videos while keeping up with your emails or your favourite social networks.</p>
<p>Video chat or record a video with the front-facing HD camera. With HDMI support, hooking it up for a big screen video experience is easyier than ever!</p>
<p>The 7&#8243; inch tablet will feature a dual core processor with Adobe Flash Player 10.1 support for the fastest HD Web experience and multimedia playback anywhere.</p>
<p>And for a truly amazing sound experience, it will come with Dolby Mobile Technology. Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity allow fast and easy connection to available networks, while DLNA support makes sharing your multimedia on other devices easier than ever.</p>
<p><strong>Price and Availability: </strong>Acer 7-inch Android Tablet will be available April 2011 for price not yet revealed by Acer in any market.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dell today introduced another industry first design – the <a href="http://www.dell.com/inspironduo">Dell Inspiron duo convertible tablet</a>. Sporting a unique, flip-hinge design, the Inspiron duo combines the simplicity of a tablet, the functionality of a full keyboard and the convenience of a dock so you can switch seamlessly from touch to type to dock mode in seconds.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/dell-inspiron-duo-convertable-tablet-pc.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1289    aligncenter" title="dell-inspiron-duo-convertable-tablet-pc" src="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/dell-inspiron-duo-convertable-tablet-pc.jpg" alt="dell-inspiron-duo-convertable-tablet-pc" width="475" height="226" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-1288"></span></p>
<p>The tri-mode functionality is perfect for those who crave productivity yet also want the fun, interactive nature of a touch screen offering easy access to movies, TV shows, social-networking sites and more.</p>
<p>The Inspiron duo is the latest in Dell’s growing portfolio of mobility products, which includes the Streak 5, the five-inch, go-anywhere device that fits perfectly in your hands, purse or pocket.</p>
<p>With Streak 5, and now the Inspiron duo, Dell is demonstrating its commitment to mobile innovation and meeting the needs of today’s on-the-go lifestyle, allowing people to stay connected to their friends, family and favorite content.</p>

We’re excited to offer such an innovative and unique design to our customers.”</p>

<p>Opening the lid and flipping the screen inward reveals a chiclet keyboard making traditional, productivity applications like e-mail, word processing, spreadsheets and presentations a breeze.</p>
<p>Additionally, a built in Web-cam, integrated Wi-Fi and optional connectivity choices such as Bluetooth and 4G mobile broadband make it even easier than ever to stay in touch with friends and family.</p>

Students can watch videos or listen to music in touch mode on the way to class before flipping the screen to type notes or write a term paper in type mode.</p>
<p>Also great for travelers, the Inspiron duo is a perfect on-the-go companion – watch movies or surf the Internet in touch mode, and organize itineraries, write a blog post or manage photos and music in keyboard mode with pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Acer has unveiled Acer ICONIA, a new concept device set to add a brand new tablet experience, that combining the versatility of a conventional 14&#8243; form factor with a unique dual-screen layout and highly intuitive all-point multi-touch functionality, which means you can use all the fingers of your hands to navigate ICONIA.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/acer-iconia-dual-touchscreen-tablet.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1274  aligncenter" title="acer-iconia-dual-touchscreen-tablet" src="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/acer-iconia-dual-touchscreen-tablet.jpg" alt="acer-iconia-dual-touchscreen-tablet" width="475" height="423" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-1273"></span></p>
<p>If you are looking for a different and innovative approach to personal computing, look no further. With its two all-point multi-touch displays Acer ICONIA offers an enhanced content consumption experience and brings the interaction with the tablet to a new level.</p>
<p>Multimedia, entertainment, communication, web browsing and office productivity seamlessly flow across the dual screen, allowing users to set the best scenario for what they are doing. To improve readability of web sites or documents, the window can be spread across both screens.</p>
<p>But the dual screen also means you can do one thing in one screen and something else entirely on the other: you can browse a website on the top screen and view the contents of your favourite folder on the bottom one or you can watch a video on the top screen and check out your multimedia library in the other.</p>
<p>&#8220;We took this insight and created a range of easy to use devices with touch technology including Smartphones, Notebooks, AIO PCs, Tablet and our latest addition, the ICONIA Touchbook: this level of commitment to touch technology is something no other PC vendor can compete with.&#8221; states Jim Wong Acer Inc. Vice President and ITGO President. &#8220;The Intel® Core™ i5 processor together with our experience with touch technology has allowed us to completely remap the user experience to create a far more natural interaction with our devices.</p>
<p>&#8220;Intel is proud that our close collaboration with Acer has helped to deliver the world&#8217;s first 10 finger multi-touch dual-screen notebook with an exciting and innovative end-user experience, powered by the Intel® Core™ i5 processor,&#8221; said Mooly Eden, vice-president of PC Client Group, Intel Corporation. &#8220;Combining the adaptable and energy efficient performance of the Intel® Core™ i5 processor with Acer&#8217;s Iconia provides new and immersive ways to seamlessly view and interact with your favorite videos, photos, websites and movies&#8221;.</p>
<p>Both 14-inch displays have HD 1366&#215;768 resolution, high-brightness Acer CineCrystal™ LED-backlit TFT LCDs and take advantage of cutting-edge technologies supporting all-point multi-touch for precise on-screen input. Protected by the ultra-thin yet durable Gorilla® Glass, the displays are scratch and fingerprint resistant, easier to clean and offer the same touch functionality.</p>
<p>ICONIA is designed to provide the optimal all-point multi-touch experience on a dual-display tablet. This is why Acer equipped it with a full range of intuitive and easy to use features and applications that fully exploit the countless possibilities of multi-touch technology. The starting point to launch ICONIA&#8217;s touch features and controls as well as applications is the Acer Ring.</p>
<p>The Acer Ring appears simply by placing five fingers on the screen and making a grab gesture. The Acer Ring allows you to start touch applications by scrolling through the App cards and tapping on the one you choose. The Ring also provides fast access to: Virtual Keyboard, Gesture Editor, Window Manager, and Device Control Console.</p>
<p>The Virtual Keyboard can be launched from the Acer Ring or by placing both palms on the bottom display. The intelligent design senses the position of the user&#8217;s palms and launches the keyboard.</p>
<p>It comes with a full-size QWERTY layout with international language support to give users the same experience of a traditional physical keyboard and features predictive text input for natural-speed typing while avoiding mistakes. The Virtual Keyboard also includes a touchpad and a numeric keypad and can be easily switched to handwriting mode. With all these functionalities you won&#8217;t miss the traditional physical keyboard!</p>
<p>With the Gesture Editor you can set customized gestures to launch specific applications, open websites, view your desktop or lock your computer. The Gesture Editor offers you a simple and intuitive way to personalize ICONIA to best suit your needs.</p>
<p>Window Manager allows users to organize the various application windows on the double touch screen. Windows and applications can be moved across displays, so you can always have what you need where you need it. Plus, you can browse through a list of running application, and resize, dock or close windows.</p>
<p>A wealth of built-in touch applications designed to easily manage content provides a seamless experience. Besides those already implemented on Acer&#8217;s touch devices, such as TouchBrowser, TouchPhoto, TouchMusic and TouchVideo, allowing an enhanced browsing experience with on-screen gestures to zoom, rotate, flip and scroll and to access and enjoy your multimedia from an integrated touch-optimized interface, ICONIA includes three new ones: SocialJogger, My Journal and Scrapbook.</p>
<p>SocialJogger lets you gather and check updates from Facebook, YouTube and Flickr in all in the same place, taking advantage of the dual screens to check posts and updates on the bottom display and use the second display for exploring and viewing more content.</p>
<p>You can use MyJournal to collect web clippings on your preferred topics. Web clippings are dynamically updated to display all the latest information and can be categorized and displayed according to your needs. Simply tab on a collected Web Clip to display the full webpage on the top screen for a complete access.</p>
<p>Scrapbook lets you easily store clippings, posts and just about anything else from different sources in the same place. You can capture screen shots from the web or an application, edit them and add notes.</p>
<p>You can create photo collections with notes and comments. You can also add your scraps to presentations, and documents. Scrapbook helps you keep track of anything you find interesting, funny or valuable and share it!</p>
<p>Acer ICONIA is based on the Intel Core i5 family of processors, delivering smart performance for multimedia, social networking and other demanding mainstream applications.</p>
<p>A fusion of the latest and best technology, ICONIA can also be equipped with 3G connectivity, for total freedom, while an HDMI™ port guarantees high-definition viewing and the Dolby Home Theater v3 provides vibrant audio for an immersive sound experience.</p>

<p><span id="more-1195"></span></p>

<p>“We will issue a limited run of the libretto W100,” continued Pinto. “We  design our products around the way people actually want to use them, so  getting this concept PC out into the hands of early technology adopters  will allow us to gather invaluable feedback that we can filter into  future product developments.”</p>
<p><strong>Optimized for Versatility, Performance and Convenience</strong></p>
<p>The libretto W100 is powered by Windows 7 Home Premium and comes  equipped with an Intel® Pentium® processor1, 2GB of fast DDR3 memory2  and a 62GB solid state drive3 – plenty of horsepower for enjoying rich  Internet and multimedia content.</p>
<p>With the libretto W100, users can take  advantage of all the Windows applications they commonly use, including  productivity apps like Microsoft Office and video chat like Skype™.</p>
<p>Built-in connectivity features, including 802.11b/g/n4 and Bluetooth®5  give users the flexibility to connect from any hotspot or pair the  device with their favorite wireless accessories, such as a mouse,  headphones and more.<br />
<strong>Innovative Design for Multi-tasking on the Go</strong></p>
<p>With an ultra-portable weight of just 1.8 pounds6, the libretto W100  is designed to deliver a rich Internet experience, multimedia playback  and the freedom to multi-task – just like a standard laptop – but with  the advantage of two seven-inch diagonal touch screens7 to work, watch  and play on.</p>
<p>The multi-touch screens can work independently or together,  giving users the flexibility to decide how they want to use them. Surf  the Web on one screen while checking e-mail on the other, view two  documents simultaneously or view a webpage across both screens.</p>
<p>A  built-in 3D accelerometer allows the libretto W100 to rotate into  portrait or landscape modes, making the device look and feel more like a  book, newspaper or magazine.</p>
<p>Designed for portability, the libretto W100 features a compact and  durable clamshell design with a brushed metallic finish. The traditional  clamshell design allows the device to fold up for easier portability,  while protecting the screens from breaks and scratches. Measuring a mere  4.84 inches by 7.95 inches when closed, the device fits easily into  almost any bag or jacket pocket.</p>
<p>“Since producing the first Intel 286-based clamshell laptop 25 years  ago, Toshiba has continued to take a leadership role in bringing new  mobile computing technologies to market,” said Tim Bajarin, president of  Creative Strategies. “This new libretto is yet another showcase of the  company’s technological laptop prowess – they have their minds on the  future and a unique, creative view on delivering innovations and form  factors that provide a full computing experience in very small  packages.”</p>
<p><strong>Simplified Navigation with Premium Toshiba Apps</strong></p>
<p>The libretto W100 features six virtual keyboard modes plus a virtual  touchpad. The keyboards feature haptic technology, providing sensory  feedback when the keys are selected, making typing fast, accurate and  easy.</p>
<p>Keyboard modes include simple, full, numeric 10-key and split  thumb mode keyboard styles, providing users with options to fit their  own personal style or task.</p>
<p>To make navigation as easy as possible, the libretto W100 includes  several premium Toshiba apps that enhance the computing experience.</p>
<ul>
<li>Toshiba Bulletin Board gives users greater personalization of their  desktops with fast access to daily activities, tasks and projects, plus  the ability to drag and drop photos, videos, links, documents and  application shortcuts into one place.</li>
<li>Toshiba ReelTime™ helps users easily find files based on when they  were opened with a simple visual history. With the flick of a finger,  quickly scroll through automatically generated previews of documents,  photos, videos and more, filter by file type or use the calendar to go  back weeks or months.</li>
<li>File Browser makes it easier to access file folders and applications.</li>
<li>Quick access to the apps and keyboards are easily accessible via on-screen icons.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>SanDisk has today introduced its latest solid state drive (SSD) products which includes <strong>SanDisk SSD G4</strong> which serves as a drop-in replacement for hard disk drives (HDD) in notebooks; while the <strong>SanDisk SSD P4</strong>, the successor to the widely used pSSD modular drive, enables designers to offer even thinner netbook and tablet computers.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/sandisk-ssd.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-711  aligncenter" title="sandisk-ssd" src="http://www.tech2day.com/wp-content/images10/sandisk-ssd.jpg" alt="sandisk-ssd" width="450" height="338" /></a></p>
<p><span id="more-710"></span></p>
<p>Unlike conventional HDDs, SSDs have no moving parts, improving durability which helps prevent data loss resulting from drive failure. In addition, SSD-equipped computers run cooler and more quietly, consume less power and deliver faster performance than those using HDDs.</p>
<p>The new SanDisk Solid State Drives offer a unique balance of performance, high-capacity storage and long-term reliability. SanDisk SSD P4 and SanDisk SSD G4 offer up to 128 gigabytes (GB) and 256GB of storage respectively, double the capacities of the company&#8217;s previous SSD offerings.</p>
<p>The drives are available in various compact form factors, which SanDisk can customize according to manufacturers&#8217; specification, offering greater freedom and flexibility in how OEMs design their products.</p>
<p>The SSDs use SanDisk&#8217;s advanced 32-nanometer (nm) multi-level cell (MLC) process technology, which enables cost-competitive high-capacity storage with a tiny footprint.</p>
<p>&#8220;We designed our new SSDs with long-term consumer usage in mind,&#8221; said Doron Myersdorf, senior director, SSD marketing, SanDisk. &#8220;Our drives offer faster boot times and improved system responsiveness while maintaining our uncompromising reliability standards. In addition, the drives utilize our Adaptive Flash Management (AFM) technology, which enables them to bridge the gap between demanding market requirements and increasingly challenging raw NAND flash characteristics.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>SanDisk SSD G4 Balances Fast Performance, Storage and Long-term Endurance</strong></p>
<p><strong>Capacity and Performance:</strong> Ranging from 64GB to 256GB with sequential read/write speeds of up to 220 and 160MB/sec<sup>3</sup>. The drive&#8217;s combination of high capacities and performance delivers the fast boot times, enhanced system responsiveness and space needed to easily handle storage-intensive data such as videos, photos, music and games.</p>
<p><strong>Endurance:</strong> SanDisk SSD G4 offers Long-term Data Endurance (LDE) of 160 terabytes written (TBW) for a 256GB drive, sufficient for over 10 years of PC usage<sup>4</sup>, well beyond a typical user&#8217;s length of ownership of a computer.</p>
<p><strong>Page-based Algorithm:</strong> To accelerate performance and extend the drive&#8217;s endurance, the SSD G4 uses ExtremeFFS, a page-based algorithm that significantly increases random write speeds and efficiency<sup>2</sup>. This AFM implementation for SSD G4 enables the drive&#8217;s unique balance between fast performance and long-term endurance.</p>
<p><strong>Flexible Form Factors:</strong> SanDisk offers customized form factors to meet stringent OEM requirements, enabling thin and lightweight laptop designs that cannot be achieved using a standard HDD.</p>
<p>&#8220;Enhanced user experience and long-term reliability are two qualities of SSDs that directly impact the end-user and ultimately represent what consumers care about,&#8221; said Jeff Janukowicz, research manager, solid state drives, IDC. &#8220;Solid state drives like the SanDisk SSD G4 that optimize around actual usage scenarios and device endurance, as opposed to sufficing solely on device level metrics, should provide a better indication of real world performance.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>SanDisk SSD P4 Enables the Emerging Tablet and Handheld Computing Market</strong></p>
<p><strong>Large Capacity, Tiny Footprint:</strong> With capacities ranging from 8GB to 128GB, the drive lets OEMs equip small devices with big storage where a bulky HDD is not an option. The drive is available in various form factors that include a new ultra-small variant of the mSATA module, mSATA mini, with dimensions of 26.80 x 30.00 x 3.4 mm. This is SanDisk&#8217;s tiniest SATA module form factor.</p>
<p><strong>Performance:</strong> SanDisk AFM implementation for SanDisk SSD P4 uses nCache<sup>TM</sup> acceleration technology, a large non-volatile write cache technology that boosts burst random write performance to shorten boot times, help prevent &#8220;stalling&#8221; and &#8220;hiccups,&#8221; and increase system responsiveness. The SanDisk SSD P4 offers burst random 4KB performance of up to 600 IOPS.</p>
<p><strong>Multiple Applications:</strong> SanDisk SSD P4 is ideal for use in small devices such as netbooks, smartbooks, tablet computers and ultra-thin notebooks, in addition to POS terminals, Set Top Boxes (STBs), printers and other devices that use embedded flash.</p>
<p>Ideals for new Notebooks, NetBooks, Tablet computers and other thin and  lightweight computing devices the new SanDisk SSD G4 and SanDisk SSD P4 drives are expected in the Q3 this year.</p>
