So as it turns out — the CrunchPad turned JooJoo tablet not only made it to the final phase of development, they are actually going to manufacture and launch the damn thing!

Intel has been making the headlines for various reasons ever since this year’s IDF happened. The things showed off at the annual event have the industry still buzzing with the various developments around them. Of course, that is what Intel had hoped for. Moblin has been on and off the news for the past week or two thanks to Dell and others. Light Peak on the other hand has been getting a lot of attention due to the Apple connection. Intel has come in to the focus once again but in a rather indirect manner after NVIDIA announced that they are ‘postponing’ the development of new chipsets. Read all about it on the other side.
