HTC Tablet Stylus Just $80

-
That HTC is touting the stylus for its Flyer tablet as a wonderful feature is risible on its own—outside of those with very specific uses, nobody should ever need a stylus in 2011. But the price is insane.

The stylus won't be included with the Flyer—instead, it'll be an $80 add-on. Eighty dollars. That's almost a fifth of the cost of the entire tablet. And although the thing does have some multimedia features tucked in, it's still, at its heart, a stick. A stick you use to draw on your screen—an interface element that I thought had been mummified long ago. But it's back! And very overpriced. (Gizmodo)

The HP Spectre Foldable Perfects the Formula of The Foldable PC

  The HP Spectre Foldable perfects the formula of the foldable PC Of the number of options out there, they all more or less consist of a foldable screen, a detachable keyboard, and a few different “modes” to use it in. There’s even the Lenovo Yoga Book 9i, which uses two separate OLED panels to accomplish that same goal. The Spectre Foldable PC is HP’s first attempt at this type of product, and it takes more inspiration from the Asus Zenbook 17 Fold than the Yoga Book. It uses a 17-inch tablet that folds in the middle, just like the Asus. HP calls it a 3-in-1, with tablet, clamshell, and desktop modes, and that’s more than just marketing. Switching from one mode to another is incredibly easy, and each one is surprisingly usable. I liked the Spectre Foldable PC quite a bit and consider it one of the most innovative laptops, but I’m afraid the hefty investment of $5,000 will scare most people away.
