<p>Knowing how saturated the market is with netbook&#8217;s and tablet&#8217;s these days, we want to hear your suggestion&#8217;s and opinion&#8217;s. Are there too many options available that make your decision harder when deciding what to purchase? Or do you feel like you should have several choices available? Either way, the decision&#8217;s not always easy for everyone so this article will help those who are currently shopping for one and aren&#8217;t sure what to do.</p>
<p>When you begin your search for a cellphone or computer you have several options, we all have been used to that. What we haven&#8217;t been used to are so many options when it comes to a netbook or tablet. If you aren&#8217;t sure of the difference, let me break it down for you. </p>
<p>A netbook Computer works on the basis of cloud computing and is usually very small in size and light in weight. These devices run Windows or Linux operating systems. A tablet PC is much more similar to your home PC or laptop and run the iPhone or Android operating system&#8217;s. I hope this clears up any confusion. </p>
<p>At the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) alone there were over 100 tablets unveiled, some for the U.S and others were for International consumers. However, there are still so many devices available where would you begin to look when you&#8217;re completely new to the product line? That&#8217;s what I hope to get answers to and maybe in return help those who are in the market for a new tablet know where to look. </p>
<p>Currently we have access to more than one iPad tablet, more than one Android tablet, a Blackberry tablet and also HTC tablets working their way onto the shelves. Forgive me if I missed any. Do these options make you smile and happy to have them or do they confuse you and make you unsure on which one you want. I guess it&#8217;s just like buying a phone, you get the one that suits your needs and wants right? </p>
<p>If you were in the market to buy a new tablet and had no clue what you wanted, what would you do? Do you go for looks and style or do you research and learn the specifications first? If you have already purchased one was it a hard decision for you? Did you purchase it because of the manufacturer or did you really compare devices? </p>
<p>If you are looking for tablets and need help, check out <a href="http://www.tablets.com/">this</a> website for starters. It tells you several specifications on more than one. Maybe this will get you started as well as this article and any comments we may get below. Let us know your thoughts!</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-14975" href="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/2011/01/06/whats-going-on-at-ces-we-can-tell-you/ces_logo2-235x148/"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-14975" title="ces_logo2-235x148" src="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/ces_logo2-235x148.jpg" alt="" width="235" height="148" /></a></p>
<p>You all may already know that <em>The International</em> <em>CES</em> is the world&#8217;s largest consumer technology tradeshow. This year it took place starting January 6th and runs until January 9th. Several websites are there and reporting what they have found to be interesting. We aren&#8217;t there this year but have already made plans for next year so don&#8217;t you worry!</p>
<p>Take a look at what some other sites are sharing as they tour the <em>International CES</em> tradeshow!</p>
<p><strong>1) The iPhone may definitely be going to Verizon</strong></p>
<p>AT&amp;T announced three new android powered phones from the smartphone world: Motorola Atrix, HTC Inspire and the Samsung Infuse. They also announced that there will be a total of 12 Android phones coming this year, plus HSPA+ and LTE tablets coming later in the year.  Some consider this to be another &#8216;hint&#8217; that the iPhone is coming, we will see!</p>
<p><strong>2) Google demonstrated Android Honeycomb on the Motorola Xoom Tablet</strong></p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-15046" href="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/2011/01/06/whats-going-on-at-ces-we-can-tell-you/image_thumb96/"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15046" title="image_thumb96" src="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/image_thumb96.png" alt="" width="293" height="200" /></a></p>
<p>As rumored, there are no physical controls around the Xoom’s bezel; instead, everything is handled by on-screen buttons in Honeycomb. They have a really cool widgets gallery with more detailed previews before you actually place them onto your screen and much more. Take a look at the video below for a demonstration!</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="355" codebase="https://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/vgmN8uKUgIg?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="355" src="https://www.youtube.com/v/vgmN8uKUgIg?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p><strong>3) Verizon announced the first LTE device: Droid Bionic</strong></p>
<p>The release date set for the Droid Bionic is currently said to be in Q2 which seems to be the general launch frame for the first LTE devices. See below the specifications of this device:</p>
<ul>
<li>1 Ghz dual-core processor (likely Tegra 2, but not stated)</li>
<li>512 MB RAM (possibly 1 GB RAM, depending on if the presser or site page is correct.)</li>
<li>4.3″ qHD Display (960×540)</li>
<li>1080p HDMI output</li>
<li>8 mega-pixel rear-facing camera</li>
<li>VGA front-facing camera</li>
<li>Android 2.2</li>
<li>Mirror Mode &#8211; allows streaming of video to the TV or the device</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><a rel="attachment wp-att-15010" href="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/2011/01/06/whats-going-on-at-ces-we-can-tell-you/droid-bionic-124x235/"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15010" title="Droid-Bionic-124x235" src="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Droid-Bionic-124x235.jpg" alt="" width="124" height="235" /></a></strong></p>
<p><strong>4) T-Mobile announced the Cliq2 and a tester for the G-Slate tablet by LG</strong></p>
<p>The device features some nice hardware improvements based on the features in the original Motorola CLIQ. These would include features such as a 1GHz processor, a 3.7-inch FWVGA (854×480) touchscreen, Wi-Fi calling and a hot spot for up to 5 devices. The CLIQ 2 also features profiles that allow you to easily switch between home and work setups. See the video below for a quick review from TMobile.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="355" codebase="https://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/GoUkR47PoyM?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="355" src="https://www.youtube.com/v/GoUkR47PoyM?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>Here is a quick look at the G-Slate tablet by LG. This tablet is said to be the “First 4G tablet w/ Android 3.0 Honeycomb.&#8221; Would you agree or disagree? I guess we will see who gets which ones first! The G-Slate will run on T-Mobile&#8217;s high-speed, 4G-like HSPA+ network. Pricing and additional product details will announced at a later date, T-Mobile says.</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="355" codebase="https://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/7fiZt6Hws0s?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="355" src="https://www.youtube.com/v/7fiZt6Hws0s?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p><strong>5) Sprint announced the EVO Shift 4G </strong></p>
<p>The EVO Shift is a little different from your EVO. They have let the front facing camera go, dropped in screen size and switched to a smaller 800Mhz processor. See the actual specifications below.</p>
<ul>
<li>3.6″ screen</li>
<li>800Mhz processor</li>
<li>512MB RAM</li>
<li>4G connectivity (obviously)</li>
<li>5 mega-pixel camera (capable of 720p video)</li>

<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-15053" href="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/2011/01/06/whats-going-on-at-ces-we-can-tell-you/velocity/"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-15053" title="velocity" src="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/velocity.jpg" alt="" width="575" height="398" srcset="https://www.ppcgeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/velocity.jpg 575w, https://www.ppcgeeks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/velocity-300x207.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 575px) 100vw, 575px" /></a></p>
