Gadget News : Atom tablets, 300K Androids, Wikileaks, Notion Ink Adam

Intel is finally making it up in the tablet race with quite a few tablets slated for 2011. Android OS is going great guns with the activations. Service deniers of Wikileaks are getting a taste of their own medicine and are facing some online activism. Oh! and our very own Adam is here. Eve is up next.

Intel Atom Tablets

Intel which was absent on most of the tablets launched in 2010 is trying to making up for it. Intel’s Atom processor will power as many as 35 tablets to be launched in 2011. The tablets will run operating sytems Windows, Android and Meego. Acer, Gemtek and WeTab are the manufacturers who will be launching Meego tablets. Will Intel make up for its 2010 losses?

Wikileaks

Online activists and Wikileaks supporters have decided enough is enough and launched a series of DDOS attacks on sites like Visa, MasterCard and Paypal. Their next target was Amazon. Not sure if it was taken down already but, this is what a bunch of determined individuals can do. Look I don’t have a dog in this fight and I am neither with Wikileaks nor with the other folks. All I am saying is Internet is not the real world. The same rules will not apply here and this is a level playing field. There is no denying that. The sooner we accept it the better it would. Wikileaks has denied any links to any of these attacks.

Notion Ink Adam launched

Notion Ink Adam is finally here. Everything including the pricing is just great about the product. The supply could be limited and it is open for pre-orders. There is a good chance that if you are still reading this and want an Adam then you might not get it. You can still try.

300,00 Androids per day

As per the tweet from Andy Rubin, there are close to 300,000 Androids activated per day. If that isn’t an indication of Android’s popularity then what is?
