Direct and Related Links for 'Tablet PCs - Will They Ever Catch On?'

Although the sales of mobile devices is continuing to grow, Canalys.com, a market research and advisory company, is reporting that tablet PCs are an insignificant part of this growing trend. Their current research shows notebooks are outselling tablet PCs by a factor of 100 to 1. Personally I’m not surprised by this report as I feel that tablet PCs are still not ready for primetime and I’m beginning to wonder if they ever will be…

05/10/2004 07:10 AM
So it's been a little while since something has sucker punched me right in lust gland, but good job Sony for sneaking this gorgeous new Vaio VGN-U70 tablet hybrid PC onto the scene. The U70 isn't an official Tablet PC, but operates without a keyboard most of the time, with...

U2 iPod for $250 (With Catch, Of Course)


U2 iPod for $250 (With Catch, Of Course) 12/22/2004 01:36 AM

secret_u2ipod.jpg imageTight Systems has 'The Secret Store,' where they sell things like the DVX-POD to keep their head above water as they try to develop the TAZI media player (hint: it's not that secret). Well they somehow got a hold of a box of U2-edition iPods that they're going to sell at $250 a pop—$100 cheaper than they go from Apple. Since iPods are in such short supply this week, I thought it might be something that you're interested in. Bear in mind, only 10 people a day can buy them, and you have to be subscribed to their newsletter/spam list, but it's a better shot than you've got going to Best Buy or something. (Thanks, Steve!)

However, as Apple launches its iPod mini worldwide, the brand is under attack on two fronts: from copycat products from the likes of Sony, and from subscription services, which will soon be helped by software from Microsoft.

Will WiFi Phones Catch On?


Will WiFi Phones Catch On? 05/10/2004 05:49 AM
The press is finally catching on to the concept of Voice over WiFi (or as we, at Techdirt, prefer to call it: VoWiFi). This seems like an area that is destined to go through the typical wireless hype cycle where the press will push it like crazy, well before most people will use it. Early offerings will be buggy and difficult to use or set up. Also, while it sounds neat, a major stumbling block is that wireless carriers are still quite nervous about selling any WiFi-enabled phone - which takes away the benefit of the hybrid phone that's both a mobile phone and a WiFi phone, depending on the available wireless signal. Sure, it's likely that wireless VoIP will become popular at some point, it's just not likely to catch on as quickly as the press would have people believe.

NASA prepares to catch a falling star sample: This is awesome. It's rare that the world of geeks and the world of action movie stars collides so enjoyably.

To increase understanding of the sun's composition, NASA in 2001 launched the $264 million Genesis mission to collect samples from the solar wind — electrically charged particles blown out from the sun at up to 2 million mph. [...]

To prevent contamination and damage to the fragile silicon wafers that collected the star dust should the Genesis capsule hit the ground, NASA will try to snare the capsule in midair as it descends.

Microsoft Searches for a Way to Catch Up


Microsoft Searches for a Way to Catch Up 04/01/2005 06:56 AM
In February, Microsoft released a revamped version of MSN Search, its first search engine based on its own technology. To get the word out, it did something you'd expect from a powerful market leader with very deep pockets: It dipped into that $34 billion cash hoard. Spending a reported $150 million, it blanketed network TV with fresh MSN advertising spots during high-profile broadcasts such as the Academy Awards, the Grammys, and the Super Bowl. The company also bought online ads at CNET, CNN.com, Weather.com, WSJ.com, and dozens of other heavily trafficked websites. Microsoft says the campaign has reached as many as 90 percent of U.S. consumers and several hundred million other people around the world. "It's one of the most significant marketing campaigns we've ever done," boasts Justin Osmer, MSN's product manager. That marketing onslaught moved the needle. According to Internet measurement firm Nielsen/NetRatings, MSN's share of the booming search-engine market jumped in February from 12.8 percent to 14.2 percent. That gain came at the expense of market leader Google, which saw its share fall from 47.1 percent to 45.9 percent. (Yahoo held steady with a little more than 20 percent of the market.) MSN says its internal numbers, for both market share and total users, also show strong gains. And Brand Keys, a New York-based consultancy specializing in consumer loyalty, says that while Google remains the category leader, the company's loyalty measures have declined 4 percent since last year.
