Ideapadftw

    So when I had struggles with Lenovo’s Ideapad k1 I chronicled them here. Me being a fair individual,  I will give credit when it’s due and not just run my mouth when things go wrong. I would like to use Lenovo as an example here of what other manufacturers can do to add years to the life cycle of their aging devices. Lenovo had some logistical issues getting the software to run properly due to some over the top customizations in Android 3.1/2 which made the software even more sluggish... Read The Rest →

Ideapadftw

I have chronicled the life cycle of the ideapad k1 tablet here on this site and up until recently there had been quite a few issues regarding bugs in lenovo’s software updates.

Mostly because I couldn’t make up my mind and also in part because I just wasn’t sold on the usefulness of one of the things when considering the bundle of money they are asking you to drop to get...

Amazon kindling a flame. Fire announcement tomorrow?

  Amazon to add fuel to the fire…. I’ve been on this story for a long time and got an inside tip from an Amazon employee months ago when I was still writing over at Android Headlines.

In fact Amazon bringing a cloud based Android based tablet to the market for 250$ is a problem for more than just Apple, anyone who manufacturers a tab will be effected by tomorrow’s announcement and frankly...
