It's all gone a bit Tablet-centric

As a multi-purpose freelancer*, I often find that my writing duties revolve around certain themes. One day it’s all Apple, the next it’s all printers, then AV suites, then… well, you get the idea.
Today’s theme would appear to be Tablets. First up, at CNET.com.au, a review of an iPhone/iPod speaker dock… that also takes iPads. Really.
Philips Fidelio DS8550: “Philips’ excellent iPad-compatible dock comes with good sound and plenty of features that put it a step above the average music-centric speaker dock.”
Then at Hydrapinion, I ponder on whether, despite having touch built in from day one, Windows 7 has missed the entire Tablet phenomenon:
Has Windows 7 missed the Tablet Tsunami? “I’m rather reminded of the old Infocom Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy game that tasked you with having tea and no tea simultaneously…”
Keeping with the Windows 7 tablet idea, another entry in the 30 Seconds Of Tech series, this time looking at the Samsung 7 Series tablet. For those keeping score, I’m aware that the series to date has been a little Samsung-heavy, but that’s to do entirely with exposure. Any vendors willing to show me their shiny new gear are entirely and absolutely welcome to do so. It’s more of an oddity that every single vendor so far has started with the letter “S”. Must do something about that.
