Labels: , , ,

Meizu's CEO, Jack Wong, has just announced something pretty darn good if you're into iPhone clones. The Meizu MX is reportedly on pace for a September release. This 4-inch Android smartphone is said to feature 16GB / 32GB of storage, and dual-core / quad-core CPU options which seem too good to be true.

Labels: , , , , , , , ,

Looks like the webOS 3.0 powered HP Touchpad 4G has just hit the FCC. This tablet is reportedly headed to AT&T with HSPA+ connectivity. Specs for this one should be the same as the original model so you shouldn't be surprised about anything. Check it out at the FCC.

Update: This Is My Next is reporting that this actually isn't AT&T's HP Touchpad 4G. Apparently, this is the HP Touchpad Go which will be a 7-inch webOS-based tablet - codenamed "Opal". It looks like it'll be available in four models: 16GB and 32GB models and with and without HSPA+. Fortunately, at least one of these models are destined for AT&T but it's not the 10-inch tablet that's already on the market.
