Intel promises to bring wireless display technology to other mobile devices

(My Original Blog Post: http://pchardwarenews.info/intel-promises-to-bring-wireless-display-technology-to-other-mobile-devices/) source_
Details are unfortunately light on this one, but Intel has closed out the week with one interesting tidbit of news — it’s apparently planning to bring its wireless display technology (a.k.a. WiDi) to netbooks, tablets and other mobile devices. That word comes straight from Intel wireless display product manager Kerry Forrell, who says that “we fully expect to take the technology there,” but that he can’t yet provide a specific time frame. Those plans are further backed up by Intel CEO Paul Otellini himself, who told investors this week that “what we’ll be doing over the next few years is take the Wi-Di capability that’s in the laptop today and extend that into all the Intel platforms.” Intel doesn’t even seem to be stopping there, however, with Forrell further adding that the company even sees the technology being built into to TVs “over time.”

How would you change Fusion Garage’s JooJoo?

(My Original Blog Post: http://pchardwarenews.info/how-would-you-change-fusion-garages-joojoo/) source_
Alright, so we gave you the opportunity to rant and rave on Apple’s iPad last week, and it’s only fitting that Fusion Garage’s much-anticipated JooJoo go next. To date, it’s pretty safe to say that quite a bit less (we’re understating things here, obviously) JooJoo tablets have been sold than the aforesaid iPad, but that’s not to say none of you have one. On the off-chance that you actually are the proud owner of a JooJoo, we couldn’t be more eager to hear how you’d tweak things if given the golden opportunity. Would you make the screen a touch smaller? Alter the exterior design in any way? Swap the CPU or GPU? Toss on a different operating system? Force it to use iTunes like only a true sadist would? Go on, the floor’s yours — throw down your best advice in comments below.
