It can be daunting to see just how quickly power between tech products shifts. Almost anyone of us can remember using a Gateway computer and waiting for the dial-up to connect. We have come a long way from hearing that annoying buzzing sound. We entered into the world of faster computers, faster internet, and mobile devices. The laptop still definitely has it’s place amongst all of the other tech devices out there, but the recent introduction of the Hybrid models shows that we are in the middle of a power shift. Both tablets and laptops are now being used as the main computing devices forRead More →

Buying replacement tech is never easy. It is ridiculously easy to get sucked into all of the typical gimmicks that many of the top companies are throwing at us. A tablet! A slightly smaller tablet! Another, even smaller tablet! Now don’t take this as bashing on tablets, but more so just bringing to light the gimmicks. Sometimes dealing with the touchscreen on tablets can get annoying. You are essentially working on a larger version of your smartphone, except your tablet doesn’t come included on your phone plan. What ever happened to just have a nice laptop? Nothing to crazy. Just a good, all around andRead More →

So Sony has decided to dive somewhat into the tablet industry but not completely. The Dash has a tablet-like appearance and many of the same functions, but it is not exactly as portable as tablets like the iPad. The Sony Dash has a pretty basic structure. It features a seven-inch touchscreen, stereo speakers, a snooze bar/menu button, volume buttons, a USB port, a headphone jack, and of course the power connection cord. The case that encompasses the Dash is made of a rubber-like material that allows you to get a good, secure grip on the device. The biggest problem that I see with the DashRead More →

Many different companies make a variety of different types of netbooks, but not many have adopted the convertible tablet netbook that has been emerging recently. This is probably because is can be a very costly netbook to design and manufacture. Convertible tablets are comparable in weight and size to an ultraportable or thin and light laptop.

You can utilize a convertible tablet netbook to navigate menus, documents, and Web pages all through the touchscreen. It’s the rotatingRead More →
