No Comments »Acer still planning Windows RT tablets, but sees ‘no value’ in current version
Author: Christen Arquette
Acer is clearly and closely aligned with Windows, but there’s one part of Microsoft’s strategy it’s not buying into just yet. At an event on Friday in New York — in the middle of a sea of newly-announced Windows products — company President Jim Wong told PCWorld that Acer won’t build a Windows RT tablet until Windows RT 8.1 comes out. “To be honest, there’s no value doing the current version of RT,” he said. We may not have to wait long, though: Wong also alluded to Windows RT 8.1 coming in the second half of this year.
Acer has a fairly turbulent history with Windows RT, but has repeatedly said it’s committed to building products with Microsoft’s low-powered OS. And with Windows RT 8.1, which promises to bring a number of…

While we’re not expecting an immediate return to the halcyon days, the Head of state’s proposed federal spending plan for financial 2014 might see some restored ambition. NASA’s slice of the pie consists of a strategy that would enhance detection of near-Earth asteroids, send a solar-powered robotic ship (like the NASA concept above) to capture among the space rocks and tow it back to a stable orbit near Earth, where analysts could study it up close. The company would have people setting foot on the asteroid by 2025, or even as quickly as 2021. It’s a marvelous objective to state the least, however we ‘d potentially find out more about solar propulsion and defenses against asteroid collisions.
If NASA’s plans mainly involve the future, the US Air Force budget is exploring the past. It’s setting aside $ 35 million for a long-discussed rebirth of the Deep Space Climate Observatory satellite, likewise understood as DSCOVR– a vehicle that was scuppered in 2001 due to cost overruns, amongst various other aspects. Run by NOAA once aloft, the modernized satellite would concentrate on cautioning the Earth about incoming solar winds. That’s just among the satellite’s initial goals, but the November 2014 launch target is fairly practical– and we’ll need it when the satellite presently fulfilling the job is overdue for a replacement.

Nokia CEO says ‘we are planning a lot of exciting things with Verizon’
Author: Randy Miller
When Nokia announced the Lumia 920 was to be an AT&T exclusive back in October, the move confused many. Although other carriers were handed variants of the Lumia 820 — the 822 on Verizon and the 810 on T-Mobile — only AT&T customers would be able to get their hands on a truly compelling, flagship Windows Phone 8 device from Nokia.

Author: Stefanie Jenkins
Buried in its press release announcing brand-new laptops, pcs, screens and add-ons, HP made an interesting admission: it’s not done yet. At the tail end of the PR, also after it broke down the numerous costs and shipping dates, the company added,” An enterprise-ready tablet will be announced soon.” No tip at the specifications, though we have to speculate if it’s the rumored Windows 8-powered “Slate 8” tablet we have actually heard about in the rumor mill. And now that HP has revealed many of its fall products, we’re asking yourself if that slate is in fact the exact same tablet that made a look in those advertisements that ran during the Olympics this summer– after all, HP’s yet to acknowledge the thing with an official name. We suppose we’ll discover quickly, whenever that is.
