HP TouchPad (Wi-Fi)

Review about Hp TouchPad, this gadget was so impressive,  why? because With all the attention lavished upon would-be tablet competitors to the Apple iPad, like the Motorola Xoom ($599, 3.5 stars) and the RIM BlackBerry PlayBook ($499, 3 stars), HP's webOS-based TouchPad has mostly flown under the radar. That should change rather quickly, though. HP, which has allegedly been designing the TouchPad since day one of its Palm acquisitionmore than a year ago, did something rare: The company waited until the product was ready to release it. The TouchPad is the antithesis of the PlayBook or the Xoom, which...

Toshiba Thrive (Wi-Fi)

Toshiba Thrive finally arrives to market after being the first Honeycomb tablet announced at CES this year. The Thrive's design certainly stands out from the pack—the back panel is textured, rubberized, and swappable for one with a flashier color, for instance. The primary difference, however, is its thickness. When the HP TouchPad ($499, 3.5 stars) debuted earlier this month, it was panned for being too bulky, but sitting next to the Thrive, the TouchPad looks supermodel-skinny. A late arrival coupled with being the bulkiest yet of the Honeycomb tablets does not bode well for the Toshiba Thrive's chances of, well, thriving. Nor does its pricing,...

Apple Mac mini (Thunderbolt)

The Apple Mac mini (Thunderbolt) ($799 list) is the latest iteration of Apple's compact desktop PC. While the iPads and iPhones have much of the attention these days, the Mac is still an important part of Apple's business. You'll use your tablets and phones while you're mobile, and the Mac when you want to do serious work like typing for extended periods of time or watching a movie on a big screen with the family. The new Mac mini upgrades with a Thunderbolt port, second-generation Intel Core i5 processor and new AMD discrete graphics, but it's also notable for something that you probably don't even use anymore: It removes the optical drive from...

Asus A53E-XA2

For the student or casual user who wants an affordable laptop with solid performance, the Asus A53E-XA2 ($629.99 list at Amazon) holds its own among the top budget laptops, thanks to an Intel Core i5 processor, solid battery life, and a design that looks great. Buyers looking for select features like USB 3.0, WiMAX, or WiDi 2.0, though, will need to look elsewhere. Design The Asus A53E-XA2 has a slender chassis, measuring 1.4 by 15.12 by 10.12-inches (HWD). It weighs 5.8-pounds, which may not be as light as the Lenovo IdeaPad V570-1066A9U ($629.99 list, 4 stars) (5.47-pounds) or HP Pavilion dv6-6013cl (5.6-pounds), but it's the same weight as...
