We wish we had better news about our hands-on success here at the Acer global press conference, but because all of the company's Android tablets will run Honeycomb / 3.0 or Google's "tablet OS" most of the units just weren't functioning. The 10.1-inch, dual-core Tegra-powered version was the only unit that would power on, and though we did get to see it blaze through some HD video, for the most part it was very sluggish and clearly acting like a pre-production unit. As far as the hardware goes, the display was bright and surprisingly had decent viewing angles. Acer's been notorious for using terrible LCDs, so this is quite a nice change! Oh, and as you already knew, it does have two cameras.

We eventually convinced a very nice Acer rep on hand to bring out the 4.8- and 7-inch devices for a hardware demo -- both of them were also very early units, but they did look nice from afar with glossy black screens and brushed metal backs. The phonlet's 4.8-inch, 1024 x 480-resolution screen (it has a 21:9 aspect ratio!) makes it much wider than a Streak, and reminded us a lot of the LG GW900 (may it rest in peace). We told you we didn't have much in the way of impressions, but hit the gallery below for some more hands-on shots and the break for a quick video of the 10-incher in action. April can't come soon enough, can it?

Replica China PSP Go Phone with Mobile 2 SIM



Another replica product from China Sony PSP Go (PSP reference P99). This great new clone of the PSP version Go mobile phone has everything to please. Closed, it has the look of a nice touchscreen smartphone, open, it takes the appearance of the handheld console Sony LCD 3.2 “(240×400 resolution). And unlike other copies that model does not hesitate to copy the Sony logo. Technically, it’s the same song, with one side features a retro console (80 games pre-installed), and the other a mobile equipped with a Double SIM card slot, FM Radio, MP3 Player, TF memory card slot (2GB included), and much more.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab will be available with O2′s range of Pay & Go mobile broadband plans, and it will be available in a range of O2 stores as well as on the O2 online shop.



It seems that O2 will not be offering the Samsung Galaxy Tab on their monthly data plans, at a discounted price so you may get a better deals from one of the online retailers like Amazon who are selling it for £529.

We have been hearing over the last week that Google intends to release a follow up to their Nexus One smartphone, the Nexus Two. Yesterday we heard that the Nexus Two would be produced by Samsung.
The Guys over at Gizmodo have managed to get some more information on the Samsung produced Google Nexus Two.


The Google Nexus Two seems to be very similar to Samsung’s Galaxy S smartphone, and it will feature the same 4 inch AMOLED display as the Galaxy S, and it will also feature a front facing camera.
The Google Nexus Two will come with Android Gingerbread, we still dont know if this is Android 2.3 or Android 3.0, which will feature video chat capabilities built in.
We suspect it wont be long before it gets officially announced, and we can see what it actually looks like, the photo above is a mock up.
