Today, Google Docs application, an online and free word processing for Android has received an update with many new additions and improvements to offline mode and display for tablet pc device users.

The offline mode is the main thing of this update. Setting a document for offline use has the same way as offline mode in Google Music. So you have the file you want to access to offline mode from menu item in each file, and then the file will be downloaded.

Since the document was downloaded to be edited is not like the music file which just to be synchronized, there are some more options. You can edit, rename, and starred in the offline file, and any changes made will be synchronized automatically when the device is connected to the Internet. You can also manage documents for offline and see when the document was last edited.

The next update is just a minor update, which improves the reading experience on Android tablet. This means the document is no longer open phone-friendly layout, but more to better layout designed for the tablet.

Unfortunately the new layout is only available for reading documents, and if you go to edit menu, the layout will return to the previous layout. There are also adding new gestures, where you can swipe the screen to change pages.

Anyone can try this application, just visit the Android Market.

We will not see Windows 8 until its release in Fall 2012, but Samsung is about to give us a peek. The Korea-based company is reportedly developing a new tablet that runs on Windows 8, which is expected to be unveiled next week in time for Microsoft’s BUILD developers’ conference.

Sources say that this new Samsung tablet will be its “first collaboration with Microsoft in its hardware devices.” There are speculations that this Windows 8 tablet may have NVIDIA’s new Kal El quad-core processor and that Samsung may give away these tablets to attendees.

What we know so far about Windows 8 is the new Windows Phone-style interface, which replaces the traditional “Start” menu. The new OS will also be backwards compatible with Windows 7 hardward and software, and is expected to function well in tablets as well as in desktops and laptops.

Samsung’s development of Windows-based hardware is seen as a preparation in the impending Google-Motorola deal. Although Samsung has been heavily dedicated with Android-based devices, the “Googorola deal” is hardly comforting for a company that competes with another Android-totting manufacturer like Motorola. The move is also seen as Samsung’s way to ward off Apple and its patent suing rampage

The tablet has a stunning mixture of features which can be very attractive not only for domestic users but also (and specially) for the corporate market. It is available in models with 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB.

The Lenovo tablet, targeted to the business segment, is already available for sale (starting August 29th / 2011). The launch of this Android gadget with a 10-inch screen was announced approximately one month ago by Lenovo. It has a stunning mixture of features for consumers and for using in business environments. So, if you are working in a, for example, IT department of a company, this tablet could be a great choice for you and your team.


By the way, the screen contains the highly damage-resistant and lightweight Gorilla Glass (manufactured by Corning Incorporated), so you won’t need to be worried all the time about awful scratches. That’s cool!

The same like other tablets with Android 3.1 (HoneyComb) in the market, the ThinkPad tablet has cool features like a IPS (In-Plane Switching technology) multitouch screen of 1280 x 600, 1GB of memory, front 2-megapixel camera (perfect for video calls and teleconferencing), rear 5-megapixel camera (for functions like taking pictures, making videos, or scanning barcodes), and a NVIDIA Tegra 2 DualCore processor. There is an available model of 16GB for $499 (350 euros), a version of 32GB for $569 (400 euros), and a third option of 64GB for $669 (465 euros).

With only these specs and an adequate price, the ThinkPad Tablet is at the same level as other competitors.

However, the plus of the ThinkPad is a set of corporate tools focused on remote administration (which would be very useful in case the tablet is lost or stolen), support for Cisco VPN, and encryption tools for all the data that you can use whenever you want. Free included applications (about 25) like Documents to Go, PrinterShare, and Computrace make obvious that the main target of this gadget is the professional user who needs to work with a reliable, and high quality mobile computer in a work environment.

Continuing with the ThinkPad portable design and style, Lenovo also has added physical keys for the tablet in order to go back, lock the screen, and go home. You can add a case with keyboard for $100 with an optical TrackPoint which is quite similar like those you can find in the ThinkPad laptops (as seen in the picture below). And even there is support for entering data through a stylus (digitizer pen or pen tablet) on the pressure sensitive screen. The active digitizer stylus costs only $30 and was developed by N-Trig that also provides the software for handwriting recognition; in addition, it’s nice to know that the stylus can be hold inside a slot located on the tablet that was specifically designed for this purpose.

Other features include: Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth, buit-in GPS, mini HDMI out, SD slot for increasing storage capabilities (actually it is a 3-in-1 memory card reader), a full-size USB 2.0 port that can be used to increase storage even more or to connect other devices (such as external hard drives), a micro USB port, a battery that allows up to 8.7 hours of power after a full charge, and a set of sensors such as A-GPS (Assisted GPS) or ambient light sensor.

Additional applications are installed by default including Oovoo for video conferences, Netflix, and Kindle for Android.

Of course, you also will be able to access to a lot of other applications from Android market.

As a temporal drawback, this tablet is not compatible with 3G technology for mobile broadband yet… but this should not be a problem after October 2011 when this feature will be added… at least for the 32GB and 64GB versions. However, if you have a mobile hotspot, this drawback is not a problem for you at all since you can use 3G broadband connection like a Wi-Fi connection; so, in this case, it’s possible to use a mobile broadband even if you buy the 16GB version.

If you keep in mind that HP is shutting down its tablets segment, we can say Lenovo is taking advantage of the current condition of the industry to become an important and serious competitor in this market segment with a great Android-based tablet, completing at the same time the Thinkpad family that also includes laptops and desktops computers. In point of fact, the Lenovo Thinkpad series (previously owned by IBM) is known by its high-quality features and innovation, so it’s no wonder that this new tablet becomes a very strong competitor for the iPad in professional environments.

Once you have a fantastic equipment along with stable software platform for the delivery of media to a portable device that can be carried around everywhere, and you have yourself a winner – if the price is also sensitive to what people are comfortable with, of course.
