BeBook Live Tablet

BeBook Live tablet delivers the goods for Froyo diehards and has a seven-inch multitouch color screen, a 2MP front facing camera, 1080p HDMI out, Flash support, and 4GB of built-in memory. Powered by Android 2.2, which will no doubt feel downright antiquated when it launches in June for $279.

surf-tablet-producBebook who is well known for producing e-ink based e-readers such as the Bebook Neo and Bebook One is going to be releasing a new Android Tablet June 21st 2011, new 7 inch device will simply be known as the Bebook Tablet. The demand for tablets is much higher than for readers, so landfill Endless Ideas is also on the tablet market.The BeBook Live is a small, bright 7-inch tablet that still works with the Android 2.2, but also very attractive price: 279 euros. This tablet is much handier than 10 inches as the iPad tablet. It is immediately apparent when you hold it: it works fine with one hand. With the right thumb, the three standard Android buttons (home, back, menu) to also be handy. The buttons take care of a large border around the screen, which is also a milli meter towers over the edge. BeBook Live is not the most stylish tablets with plastic shell. The tablet itself is quite thin (11 mm), but the iPad is thinner. His window looks at a comparative test with the iPad two slightly less bright and sharp. BeBook Live has only wifi, no 3G and GPS.

Furthermore, a 1 Ghz chip manufacture Samsung (not dual core), 4 GB of internal memory and SD card inputs for HDMI and a front camera. A camera on the back, according BeBook unnecessary, because photographing what is around you the tablet is not the most appropriate device. For lack of backup cameras miss you the possibility to use augmented reality apps. The 1-GHz chip performs smoothly and BeBook claims that the rapper would go something video processing than the iPad. The first tablets of the brand-new Android 3.0 (Honeycomb) appear correctly in the coming weeks from brands like Acer, Asus and LG. As a smaller manufacturer is not as fast Endless Ideas were provided with Honeycomb and larger brands. The company must also have a few months waiting for certification by Google. Android 3.0 at the start are also some shortcomings, which Google updates will be eliminated. Endless Ideas from September promises Android upgrade to 3.0, which is pretty late. The company also could opt for the newer 2.3, recently available, but support for that version was not on time.

There are more small tablets that are not Android Honeycomb use. This is how HTC’s Flyer, a 7-inch tablet with Android 2.3. An advantage is that almost all existing screen Android apps work on this tablet. The screen resolution of 800×600 BeBook Live is supported by most of the nearly 150 000 Android applications. The tablet simply offers access to Android Market, which is more competitive budget for Archos tablets did not apply.Additional connectivity options abound. BeBook Live provides USB, an SD slot and a mini-HDMI port, so the images on his tablet TVs can display. It supports full HD output. There are also some accessories like a Bluetooth keyboard available. When purchasing supplies BeBook for several apps, including the game Tank Racer and an app for file management and read e-books.BeBook Live is perhaps not the most handsome of the Android tablets, but he offers a reasonable hardware for its low retail price (279 euros). The tablet seems particularly interesting for those already on its Android mobile device and now a cheap tablet with the familiar version of Android wants to buy. And preferably a manageable 7 inch model. For that group BeBook Live entry level tablet attractive than the lower performers and ViewSonic Archos tablets.

Three Foxconn Employees Arrested For Leaking Design of Apple’s iPad 2

Digitimes have reported that three Foxconn employees have been arrested for leaking the iPad 2 design weeks (editor’s not: weeks? Try months) before apple’s official announcement. The trio are being held responsible for the leaks that saw third-party companies release protective cases for the second-generation tablet before it was even announced by Apple.

ipad-foxcommSeveral online shopping retailers in China were able to sell iPad 2′s protective case products before the iPad 2 was even launched, leading Foxconn to suspect that there might have been some employees leaking the design of iPad 2 which it reported to the local police.

The local police on December 26, 2010, arrested three employees that were suspected of leaking the design, and officially charged the three employees for violating the company’s trade secrets on March 23, 2011, the reported added.

On December 26th, 2010, three employees with the Foxconn factory based in Shenzhen, China, were suspected of leaking the design, and were subsequently charged for violating the company’s trade secrets on March 23rd, 2011. Though the report makes no mention of Apple, it is sure that the Cupertino company were pushing for Foxconn to investigate the design leaks for its then unreleased product.

These arrests will be come as a warning to other Foxconn factory workers who may be tempted to leak secret information for monetary bribes. While it may be a tempting prospect for a Chinese factory worker on a less than modest wage, it won’t be taken lightly.
