For an Android Tablet is really head-to-head with the Apple iPad go, it must offer a comparatively large 10-inch screen. This seems a fairly logical assumption, but, surprisingly, most Android tablets we tested in 2010 have a screen size of 7 inches or less.

The ViewSonic Tablet G is the first branded tablet we’ve seen more on the challenge of adjusting for a 10-inch screen Android. The result is not an iPad-killer, and not live up to the best that can offer Android – but it stands out as a unique alternative.

Design

The G Tablet’s shape and weight are similar as the iPad’s. Measuring 7.75 inches high, 10.5 cm wide and 0.5 inches thick, the G Tablet big enough to deliver Web pages and documents to their intended size, but not so large as to lead to cramp your hands.

As with most Android phones, you will find four capacitive touch buttons on the right side of the screen, controlling navigation features like search, back home, menu, and again. The bottom edge includes a pinhole microphone and a docking port for accessories. A volume rocker sits on top, positioned within easy reach finger. The stuff is gone geeky on the left seized, including a USB host port (for peripheral devices and USB sticks), microSD card slot, power button, mini USB sync port, headphone jack and AC adapter jack, and there are integrated Speakers on the left and right. The only unfortunate result of this arrangement is that Access tilts the tablet in their preferred landscape to cover up the speakers. If you want to connect in a pair of headphones, to your left hand sticking out awkwardly put the headphone cable.

The most important design decision made on the ViewSonic Tablet G is about the screen UI. The anticipated Android customizable desktop has been replaced with a large dash utilities, including weather, news, notes, clock, contacts and calendars. You can customize this view to some extent, they exchange the different modules pre-installed – but it’s nowhere tailored to him kind of Android desktop come to know we have to close. Admittedly, some of this is application-oriented organization functionality exists in the toolbar and tray app running on the ground, but basically in his metaphor of the interface G is closer to the Tablet Sony Dash, say, the HTC Evo 4G.

Function and Performance

Here is the part that kills us. The G’s Tablet sheet reads like a dream. It is Android 2.2 (you’d never know it from the interface) on top of a 2-Nvidia Tegra processor with 1 GHz of the muscle. You are given to grow 16 GB built-in memory with space for more than microSD. There is wireless support for 802.11 b/g/n WLAN and Bluetooth 2.1 (A2DP though no audio streaming). A 1.3-megapixel Webcam sits above the screen, and joint sensor for automatic brightness adjustment and control accelerometers are all here.

Try to surf the Web or begin to fall apart to install an application, however, and things. To ViewSonic credit, went the manufacturer no effort to ensure that would be the web browser worthy 10-inch screen of the Tablet G’s, or presented in a consistent format instead of the mobile format that most Android pill burden by default. In many situations, these sites look great sites like NYTimes.com and supplies in their full splendor, and supports the ability to use pinch gestures to zoom in and out of content, similar to the iPad. In other cases, such as its Web-based Google’s Gmail and Reader applications, the pages sometimes frozen and useless. Without Flash support (though we said it is coming soon), this does not work at all sites like Pandora, YouTube, and TV.

Now you may think: “Why not just download the applications for these services?” Now we have tried. This is the second heart pain with the G-Tablet – the official Android Marketplace for Apps is not here (not to mention nuclear Android apps like Gmail, Maps, navigation, places, YouTube and Voice Search). Instead, ViewSonic sent around the problem by adding a link to online Handango Android App Store download. With the Store Front, you can browse, download and install many third-party applications, including Pandora, Qik, Fring and Yelp. Unfortunately, none of these high-profile apps was properly on the Tablet G. Pandora does not start, Qik crashed, Fring came a burst of crackling and Yelp could not get a lock on our location (in part due to the lack of G Tablet GPS or Wi-Fi triangulation). In short, do not expect your favorite apps are supported.

If there is a silver lining, it is this – video playback rocks. Chalk it up to Nvidia’s Smokin ‘Tegra 2 processor or ViewSonic find out that people want to use a 10-inch screen for watching videos, but the G Tablet loads most video formats with ease and supports resolutions up to 1080p. We threw everything at the G Tablet, including MPEG-4, DivX, Xvid, H.264 and MOV, and they all worked quickly and without incident. That is, the tablet is missing Adobe Flash support (yes, it happens), a large part of the web-video content by not going to work. We have put the same complaint against the Apple iPad, however, to offer the choice of media and iTunes streaming video applications by Apple, we think it’s fair to say, are not most iPad users feeling the pinch on the contents.

ViewSonic prices of the G Tablet, the battery life of 8 to 10 hours of mixed use. From our first application, we think that number is probably in the ballpark, although the arrival of Adobe Flash support, which is expected to take its toll.

Feeling nostalgic for the initial batch netbooks? You know, from design, small keyboards with the wrong key and short battery life? Then you’re in luck! Viewsonic, a manufacturer of LCD TVs, projectors and other consumer electronics, released its first netbook, which will VNB102 Viewbook, a mass of mediocrity.

Like other 10-inch netbooks that came out last year, offers the VNB102 an Intel Atom N270 Processor, 1 GB of RAM and a 160 GB, 5400 RPM hard drive. As the Averatec HS-105 announced yesterday, this little boy is running Windows 7 Starter Edition (at least that of this year.) But one wonders why ViewSonic is not for the newer Atom processor N450 Pine Trail wait.

The barrel-shaped hinge on this VNB102 to remember to original ASUS Eee PC 701 and Lenovo S10 and from 2008 onwards. Similarly, the keyboard is one of the smallest we’ve seen over the past year, and the shrunken right shift key, out of place, too reminded us of keyboards, we would rather forget, like the original on the Lenovo S10. We want that there are two separate mouse buttons, but they are too small.

Are the typical three USB ports, VGA, headphone and microphone and Ethernet, and a 3-in-1 card reader.

The VNB102 performed approximately the same as every other netbook: the score of 841 in Geekbench was 8 points above the average 3DMark06 score of 139 and 20 points below average.

Endurance is another issue: the 6-cell battery on the VNB102 only lasted 4 hours and 46 minutes, about an hour and a half shorter than the average netbook. This is the halfway point of the ASUS Eee PC 1005PE-P. Although netbooks with Ion graphics processors and larger screens comparable battery life, you have have a problem.

Viewsonic VNB102 sells for $ 399. This is more expensive than many netbooks, including the Asus Eee PC1005PE, which offers a better design, more comfortable keyboard, and much, much longer battery life.

ViewSonic, like virtually all netbook manufacturers in the face of the earth, is the introduction of a new Windows version 7 of its 10-inch mini-laptop. The VNB102 with Windows 7 Starter Edition will be on the streets on 18 December.

Apart from the new operating system, there is little to set aside the earlier VNB102 of netbooks ViewSonic, or pretty much any other PC manufacturer, for that matter. The computer has a 1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 CPU, 1GB of RAM and a 160 GB hard drive.

The screen is a 10-inch, 1024 x 600 pixel display. It sports Ethernet, 802.11b g WiFi, and a VGA output. And the netbook has a 6-cell battery that Viewsonic says is good for up to 6 hours.

Viewsonic, at the latest at the Taiwan train, comes with yet another Netbook – the VNB101. The system is powered by an Intel Atom processor N270 (1.60GHz, 533MHz FSB, 512KB L2 cache), even though you may have the option of a 1.66GHz N280, Sports A 10.2″ Wide LCD (1024 x 600) display, 1 GB DDR2-533MHz on board, and a 160GB hard drive. Connections are provided by the by the Wi-Fi 802.11b g, Bluetooth 2.0, and ExpressCard 34 slot provided. It is easy in its design and easy to use with Windows XP Home . The company also throws in a multi-touch trackpad and built-in stereo speakers, built-in Web Camera (0.3MP or 1.3MP) and microphone. The Standard-4800 3400mAh battery can be dignified life. It has a 92% keyboard, the well of the size of the machine. This 1.4kg (with battery) machine is not one, not two, but 6 colors – black, white, yellow, pink, red and gold. Availability is not known.
