Tech Event

The new Samsung Chromebook seems to be a huge success. It currently ranks first on Amazon.com's laptop best seller list and is temporarily out of stock at the world's largest online retailer.

If you are a Linux user you've probably experienced hardware issues. Ever tried to work with a dual monitor setup for example? If you are a developer targeting different Linux distros you know about the work hours wasted to maintain different package formats, don't you?

This netbook by Sunlike, recently showcased at China Sourcing Fair, is powered by a 1.2GHz Boxchip A10 CPU, comes with 1GB RAM and runs Android Ice Cream Sandwich. The included 2100mAh battery is said to offer about 5 hours battery life.

The 1st generation of Samsung Chromebooks was released about a year ago, so it's high time for an updated model with improved specs, software and boot time, like the one demoed in this short video recorded at IDF Beijing.

Netbooks seem to be out of fashion but now and then a new device pops up, that fits into the netbook category, especially when tech exhibitions take place. One such device is the Wabook EPC1029 running Android 2.3, that is currently showcased at CeBIT 2012.
