Apple. No, not the red, green or multicolored fruit. Apple the corporation that is worth about $340 billion. To put that in to perspective, Apple is worth as much as the 32 largest eurozone banks, which hold the common European currency of the euro. The bulk of this success is attributed to the innovated technology that has brought consumers like iPods, iPhones and iPads.

With the Asus Transformer Prime on its way to Asus partners, reviewers of the device are already saying it’ll be perhaps the best Android tablet on the market, and maybe even the best tablet to date.

Circuit boards keep on becoming cheaper to print but at the same time those used in high tech applications keep on becoming more complicated making them more expensive to print at the same time. For a high tech item that is going into mass production like a tablet computer the cost per unit isn’t very high, but on short runs the cost of custom circuit boards can be prohibitively high and this may be stifling innovation is small businesses and even research departments.
Believe it or not there are plenty of ways to get free electronics all over the internet. There are also several ways to tell the real offers from the fake and scam offers. Some of the most valuable tools are social networking sites like YouTube, Twitter and Facebook as they can help you tell with a little inspection. Knowing what offers are legitimate takes a little bit of research and a lot of common sense, but there is no reason the average savvy internet user cannot walk away with an iPad, iPhone or laptop after all is said and done.
Crowd-sourcing is seeking to put right one of humanity’s many wrongs against nature. To be fair many people, especially children, wouldn’t imagine that collecting shells would have any major effect on marine life but the hermit crab is losing out.

Often mistaken as a smartphone, the Motorola Atrix 4G, which serves as a laptop, a set top box, a desktop computer and a smartphone, is not “just” a smartphone. Its dual-core-CPU-sporting device carries the load of not only coordinating these four devices as one but also endorses support for a 4-inch, 960 x 540 display, HPSA +data and an array of other sensational specs. This is what renders the Motorola Atrix 4G as “a whole new kind of device”. A device projected to take the place of netbook, or perhaps even more through its Webtop environment. The question however is, will it prove proficient enough to take over as your replaced home theater?

During my research I became a bit of an expert in blu ray players and this is my personal top five list of must have blu ray players on the market right now.
Many of you out there may have invested in a single universal remote control and programmed it to control all of your gadgets. But what if you could do away with all of them, even the universal remote, and control all of you gadgets using your phone?
The E-book reader is quite possibly my favorite new tech gadget of the last few years; I believe these devices have the potential to help save millions of trees, and more over they are extremely convenient, allowing you to carry thousands of book in a little device that’s often smaller and lighter than a standard paperback novel.
