Somehow it appears that everyone is excited about the tablet market and the opportunity it offers, everyone is jealous that Apple has figured out first how to conquer it. Strangely enough, no one seems to want a share of the pie and places a horse that is dead out of the gate.

Verizon will begin selling the Samsung Galaxy 7″ tablet for $600 on November 11.

T-Mobile has opened G2 pre-orders to its customers, sort of. If you order T-Mobile first 4G phone today, it will ship on October 4 to arrive at your doorstep on October 6.

Samsung is first out of the gate with a 4G LTE-enabled cellphone.

This week we saw what was likely one of the best product launches that Apple has ever done with one noted exception. The iPod line was tight with design elements and core values spreading from the Shuffle bottom to the iPod Touch top. AppleTV hit its price points and while it is still content challenged, as are all devices in its class, it is actually a credible product in a segment that is owned by cable and satellite companies.  Apple did showcase one weakness as their plan to stream the event to Apple customers only not only showcased their relatively closed approach to communications, but their relative inexperience, because most folks on Macs couldn’t get the stream to work.

Samsung has unveiled its much anticipated Galaxy Tablet at the IFA tradeshow in Berlin, Germany.

Ever since the introduction of the first hard drive in 1956, it was clear that there is a physical limit to how much data a hard drive can store within a certain surface area. Samsung announced new hard drives today that feature an aereal density that was questioned just four years ago and we are now approaching densities that are believed to be the limit for the current recording technology. Is it finally time to ditch traditional magnetic recording methods and transition to heat assisted recording?
