Dell’s new desktop is actually an 18” tablet with a keyboard
At SXSW earlier this week, Dell introduced the XPS 18, a “desktop” computer that’s really more of a convertible desktop/tablet hybrid. It’s an 18” full Windows 8 tablet with a stand and a keyboard, so you can work on your work and then detach the screen to work on your not-work.

Apple announces a 128gb iPad for some reason
Well, the reason is clear— Apple just wants to continue to diversify its iPad line, but does anyone really need a 128gb iPad right now? A large capacity phone is one thing, for carrying around all your music and photos and videos, but Apple wants you to store most of that shit in the cloud anyway. Plus, at a price of $800 for WiFi or $930 for 3G, you’re starting to get into MacBook Air territory anyway. But hey… a 128gb iPad now exists.

New typing system offers a touchscreen alternative to QWERTY
Even though QWERTY isn’t the perfect keyboard layout, it’s the one almost everyone is used to, and so it’s the one that ends up on anything with a keyboard. But for tablets and touch screens, there may be a better way to type— using chords of fingers instead of pressing down individual keys.

Given tablets but no teachers, rural Ethiopian kids quickly teach themselves
In a pair of remote villages in Ethiopia, the One Laptop Per Child organization is conducting an experiment. They dropped off crates of Motorola Xoom tablets for the children, with no instruction and no one to teach them. These kids had never seen a printed page nor any sort of writing. Completely illiterate and having never seen electronics, yet they quickly learned how to use the devices and then learned how to read and write, and then learned how to hack the devices to get around restrictions OLPC had put on the tablets.

North Korea invents its own iPad. Okay, steals it from China, same thing.
A couple years ago, North Korea launched its first “tablet”, though it was just really a super cheap Chinese LCD late 80s PDA. This past week, they announced again that they had “invented” a tablet for real this time, and while this looks more like a tablet, it’s still just a cheap Chinese rip-off product that North Korea is showing off as its own invention.

It’s official: The iPad mini is going to be announced October 23rd
Let the Apple anticipation begin— the company announced today that they’ll be holding a press event on October 23rd to announce the iPad mini. The new iPad is expected to come in at a size and price that puts the tablet in direct competition with the likes of the Amazon Kindle Fire and the Nexus 7. Oh, and Microsoft will be launching the ever living motherfucker out of Windows 8 and Windows 8 tablets just a few days later, so that probably has something to do with the timing.
