OpenPeak OpenTablet 7 Could Rival The Apple iPad?

 

My cargo pants, that is. Those big side pockets might be just the right size for this 7” multi-touch tablet from OpenPeak. The OpenTablet 7 (via SlashGear) is one of the better designed iPad competitors so far. It has a slick, simple design that manages to be minimalist and badass at the same time. Like the iPad and Notion Ink's Adam, I can easily see myself using this tablet comfortably.

Apple iPad:The Missing Features

There’s no doubt that the upcoming Apple iPad will kick the asses of all netbooks, tablet PCs, and e-readers, but it’s by far the perfect unit that we had hoped for from Apple. But then again, neither was the original iPhone.

How could it have been better?

Here’s a list of things we felt strongly about. Post yours in the comments section below. Please keep the tampon jokes to a minimum.

DataJack launches USB modem with $40/month unlimited 3G data plans

 
 
If you want a USB modem that will provide mobile broadband access in the US, you’ll usually have to sign up for a 2 year contract and commit to paying $60 per month for up to 5GB of data transfers. Or, you can sign up for a new DataJack modem which costs about $100 up front and $40 per month thereafter for unlimited data. Oh yeah, and there’s no contract, so you could use the service for a month or two, cancel it, and then sign up again half a year later.

REVEALED! CrunchPad Web tablet is built by geeks, for geeks

Editors Note:  This is going to be the next killer piece of hardware.  Amazon better take notice, for its Kindle is going to be at the way side soon.  This tablet has a huge screen compared to it and it looks much less bulky (Not to say the Kindle is really bulky in the sense).   With a wifi connection and skype, this is the killer portable internet communications device.   I would like to see in Generation 2, a web cam built in that works with Skype so I can do video calls.  Kudos Mike and AlphaGeek, I will be getting one or you could send me one to review.  
 
News:
 
Spy pics indicate this US$300 touchscreen Web tablet created by TechCrunch founder and Web 2.0 entrepreneur Michael Arrington could even beat Apple to the ‘iTablet’ punch!

Blackberry Storm drenched in bugs and NYT’s Pogue calls it a “Dud”

Editor's Note:  I personally own an iPhone and have not had a chance to test out this phone.  I couple of my friends did express interest in getting the Storm but after playing with it, the opted to keep their old Blackberry. 

 

Hundreds of people waited in line last week to get their hands on the Blackberry Storm, the first touchscreen device from Research In Motion.

Too bad the warning not to buy it didn’t come until today. The highly anticipated phone was expected to be RIM’s and Verizon Wireless’ response to the iPhone, but obviously in the rush to get it out for the holidays, it’s a flop. In doing so, it not only falls short of beating the iPhone, but may cause serious long-term damage to the company’s reputation for building reliable enterprise devices.
