Asus has posted an extensive update on its UK blog covering the
newly-announced EeePad Transformer
Prime
TF700 tablet, along with details of how the widely-reported Wifi and GPS
issues with the original Transformer Prime
TF201 affect UK users.
Firstly, ASUS says that the Wifi problems experienced by some Prime owners
stateside don't affect any of the units sold in the UK. And on the subject of
GPS woes, the manufacturer reminds Brits that they're entitled by law to return
their tablets within 30 days for a full refund. To sweeten the deal for those
who choose to keep their TF201, ASUS says it's increasing its standard warranty
on the device from 12 to 18 months. If you want to take them up on the offer,

The introduction of iOS 5 in October 2011 not only brought an array of new
features to iOS users and devices, but also brought a host of new APIs for
developers to take advantage of. iOS 5 is the latest version of what is possibly

The Kindle Fire entered the fast-flooding and highly competitive tablet space last year like a breath of fresh air, and has settled down admirably in its own niche, holding out extremely well against the likes of the Ipad 2, the much touted Motorola Xoom, the Samsung Galaxy Tab/s & the Asus Transformer, despite running Gingerbread, which was considered a step behind at the time.

Ever since June 2009, Apple have included the Spotlight search feature on the iPhone, iPod touch and the iPad. The inclusion of the Spotlight search feature in iOS 3.0 and above allows users the ability to quickly search contacts, mail metadata, calendars, media and installed applications amongst other things.
Long term users of a Mac will no doubt recognize the feature as being first
implemented into Mac OS X 10.4 in 2005 after being announced at the 2004
Worldwide Developers Conference. The iOS version is limited in functionality
compared to the desktop version, but still serves as a functional search system
for the popular mobile range of devices.
