India unveils prototype of $35 tablet computer

It looks like an iPad, only it's 1/14th the cost: India has unveiled the prototype of a $35 basic touchscreen tablet aimed at students, which it hopes to bring into production by 2011.

Senh: If they can make it, it would be awesome. As long as it has internet access with 3G and Wifi, it's good enough. We'll see.

iPad Saves Bookbinder

How a San Francisco start-up revived an old art form with the help of Apple's newest innovation. It almost seems backwards. A bookbinding business thriving not only in a down economy, but in the new age where Amazon’s Kindle, the iPad and other digital reading platforms are becoming a more popular way to consume information versus print.

Senh: Very cool. If I buy an iPad, I would buy one of these cases. Hell, I might buy an iPad just so I can stick it in one of these cases. The bookbinding business owner said he lost most of his business to overseas companies in the 80's and 90's, and the iPad is saving them. You can't help but think for how long? Once this becomes popular, it's just a matter of time before China starts mass producing them for a cheaper price.

Ballmer: Windows 7 Slates Coming Soon

In an effort to counter Apple's iPad-fueled momentum in the personal computing market, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said his company plans to introduce a full range of Windows 7-based slate PCs "over the course of the next several months."

Senh: This will probably be the end of netbooks - iPad running windows 7. There's something about being able to hold onto something and moving things around with your fingers. The only drawback is typing, but I think it can be solved if Swype makes a version for tablet computers. With multi-touch being the wave of the future, I wonder if people will start developing calluses on their fingers. I'm already at that stage with my HTC HD2. I had to take a break from using Swype to type.
