Today Sony introduced a few new entries to its VAIO lineup of notebooks. We got the ultra-powerful yet extremely portable new S series and the neon-colored C series that should appeal to younger users.

You may not have heard of Imagination Technologies, but that’s because they don’t sell anything directly to consumers. What you should have heard is their PowerVR series of graphics chips for mobile phones.

All is fair in love and war – and you’d think that on Valentine’s Day LG would go for “love”. Well, no.
Instead, they went all Street Fighter on Steve Jobs (apparently known by his wrestler name, “A pad”) around 1:00 into the ad, all in the name of promoting their new Honeycomb-running Optimus Tab…
Subtle? Hardly. But those are the guys that announce each new product about five times (check out our news section if you don’t believe me).
Sure, the LG Optimus Pad sounds pretty great and all, it’s got Read more »
