Well, this is strange. In a year that saw HP sell whatever TouchPad tablets were left for just $99, RIM is also seemingly trying to think of creative ways to get rid of their leftover BlackBerry PlayBook slates. In a world ruled by the iPad, the PlayBook never really stood a chance. It was engineered to only truly...

All hail the TouchPad, the second most popular tablet in the universe! Wait, what? Believe it or not (and we wouldn't blame you if you didn't), Hewlett-Packard has sold more tablets so far in 2011 than any other company, save for Apple, according to market research firm The NPD Group. Of course, HP unintentionally...

Welp, looks like this is the end of the line. For real this time. HP's TouchPad has been a tough item to get in recent months -- right after that price drop from $499 to $99.

In a move that could have only come directly from...

Apple's iPad 3 is currently expected to drop early in 2012, but some analysts are suggesting that the launch window could slip, mostly due to the fact that no one has managed to even dent the iPad 2's market share. The speed of the tablet's success is unprecedented. The iPod, which debuted in 2002, didn't break 20...

Fusion Garage has an uphill battle if they plan to take on Apple's iPad. In fact, the same could be said of any tablet maker hoper to make an impact in a market that's already dominated by the iOS king.

If there's one thing to be learned from the HP TouchPad, it's that people love cheap. The iPad has a dominating lead in the overall tablet space, but nothing gets the masses worked up like a fire sale on a previously-comparably-priced item. Velocity Micro is the latest on the block with cheap options for those who aren't entirely...

RIM has experienced a few setbacks with its BlackBerry PlayBook tablet.

It...

Here's an idea for tablet makers who are striving to compete with Apple: sell your device for $99. We know, that's no way to actually stay in business, but it's working like a charm for HP, even after the company announced that the TouchPad was a dead product this past week. Shortly after the company made clear that this was the end of the...

True story: I ventured down to my local Best Buy and stood in line the day Apple launched it's iPad 2. It was a longer line than the one I waited in during the original iPad's launch, and this time around, Best Buy employees tried their hardest to create a buzz for a product that really doesn't need it. There were excited pre-release announcements...

It's a little strange that the same company responsible for the TouchPad is also responsible for one of the most compact laser multifunction printers of all time.
