Motorola DROID XYBOARD 10.1 and 8.2 receive update to become global roaming devices
Now that the first DROID-branded tablets have been out for awhile, it's about time that they receive a much-anticipated update: global roaming. Both tablets are now getting notifications that an update, which is build 1.6.0M_279, is now available for the tablet, and ready to download. Both tablets are seeing the same update, while the DROID XYBOARD 10.1 is getting... Read more » Samsung to appear at Mobile World Conference, will not be hosting any press conferences
Over the past month we've heard a lot of rumors regarding Samsung and their presence at the upcoming Mobile World Congress. It was anticipated that the Galaxy S III would be announced, but that turned out to be false. We also heard that Samsung may be bringing some tablets to the event, and there is probably some truth to that. But Samsung will not be making a major... Read more » Amazon Kindle Fire sees MIUI 4 ROM
The Kindle Fire by Amazon is one of the most popular (cheap) tablets out there. And, while at face value you probably couldn't tell it was running Android (unless you already knew), there's definitely a version of our favorite mobile operating system lying under there. That's why when we see custom ROMs like MIUI going for a spin on the device, we feel like it's... Read more » Sony Tablet S gets rooted
It may or may not be "about time" for one of the new tablets from Sony to gain root access, but if you own a Tablet S by Sony then your time for gaining root access to the device has finally come. Thanks to developer Dan Rosenberg, the man behind gaining root access to Lenovo's ThinkPad tablet, you can now finally have all the fun you want with your Tablet S, as long... Read more » ASUS Transformer Prime receiving yet another update to fix bugs
The update situation with the Transformer Prime by ASUS has been a bit crowded. We've seen plenty of updates for the quad-core tablet in the past, not least of which was the update to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. But, while the updates were meant to fix the issues plaguing the brand new tablet, it doesn't look like the updates are actually fixing all of them in... Read more » Toshiba AT200 now available for purchase in the UK
It was way back in September of last year when we saw the official announcement of the AT200 by Toshiba. The Android-powered tablet may not have been the most high-end tablet announced near the tail-end of last year, but it certainly doesn't slouch in the specifications category, and it manages to add yet another tablet in the already crowded market. But, back then,... Read more » Lenovo ThinkPad Android 4.0 update set to begin in May
Late last month, Lenovo made it clear that they intended to not only update their IdeaPad tablet to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, but also the ThinkPad business-oriented tablet. Unfortunately, back then, Lenovo was only providing generalized dates, with no hard dates to go on. We knew to expect it in the second quarter of this year, but nothing else beyond... Read more » ZTE Optik for Sprint officially announced
It has been a little while since we first heard about the ZTE Optik, an Android-based tablet reportedly heading to Sprint. Back then it was just a rumor, but Sprint has decided to squash the rumors and finally officially unveil the device. Despite being manufactured by a company that isn't necessarily a well known name here in the States, the tablet itself isn't...

Most wireless carriers are making the jump to 4G LTE, and US Cellular hasn't kept it a big secret that they plan on releasing their own 4G LTE network this year. Of course, while it's great that the network is seeing huge boosts in speed and technology, most people care about the devices that are showcasing the network. And US Cellular has officially unveiled that... Read more » Samsung Mobile to release 2 new tablets
Looks like Samsung isn't resting on their laurels which is great news for all of us. Even with the impending release of the AT&T Galaxy Note and the buzz surrounding the new Galaxy S III, the Suwon-based manufacturer is not slowing its pace. It looks like Sammy has two new devices that just got WiFi certification and with the iPad 3 on the horizon, it isn't much... Read more »
