At a Qualcomm investor’s conference this week, CEO Paul Jacobs unveiled what will be the first smartbook on the market, made by Lenovo and sold by AT&T, using a Qualcomm chip. You might say that the smartbook is more than a smartphone, but less than a netbook. It has a display much like a netbook, […]
Sprint joins the netbook wars with the debut of the Dell Inspiron Mini today. It’s a 10-inch device that Sprint, in its press release, says “offers blazing-fast Internet access in a convenient, affordable and portable package that can easily fit in a purse, backpack or briefcase.” It sells for $199.99, but is already drawing criticism […]
The Apple tablet rumors/predictions have ratcheted up in recent weeks, with the consensus being that the world will finally meet this mysterious (and as yet officially unconfirmed) device this fall or early 2010, and possibly at the iPod event next month.

Following in the footsteps of its European counterparts and archrival AT&T Inc., Verizon Wireless plans to launch a subsidized netbook+data subscription bundle, on May 17.

G1 handset based on Google Inc.’s Android mobile operating system has so far led a lonely existence, but that’s all set to change as a flurry of Android devices will be coming to market soon.

Verizon (VZ) appears to be attempting to keep up with the Joneses’ activity in the netbook realm.
