Here are two new line of Galapagos e-reading tablets from Sharp ready in December. They named them Galapagos in honour of the evolution the company believes they represent. The 5.5-inch Mobile version (pictured above) has a delightfully dense 1024 x 600 LCD screen, while its 10.8-inch Home sibling offers a very decent 1366 x 800.
There’s 802.11b/g WiFi on both, while the littler slate is also enriched with a navigational trackball. Sharp’s emphasis here really seems to be on the cloud-based ecosystem it’s creating for these “terminal” devices — 30,000 newspapers, magazines and books have been lined up for its planned December launch and an “automatic scheduled delivery” facility will help you get at them as soon as the latest issue’s ready for consumption. Sadly, we should note that this is specifically tailored to suit the Japanese market, which makes an international release seem somewhat unlikely.

Electric cars are the future (or should I say “the present”) for the automotive industry! Rising climate changes, higher fossil fuel costs, governmental incentives and tougher fuel-efficiency standards are driving the revolution!
Many brands try to jump on the bandwagon as soon as they can in order to be able to compete on this market! Communication is part of their strategy and some makes succeed pretty well! It’s the case of Renault that launches the Z.E. (Zero Emission) range. They recently made the buzz around Europe with their HelloZeWorld campaign - http://www.hellozeworld.com/ - with the support of the Airnadette, and guess what… they became so popular that they are currently touring around the U.S.!
I believe we need more brands like Renault, driving customer awareness using innovative concepts …
