Lumbering STEC struggles to turn corner

Difficult for a supertanker to win in a Flash dogfight

STEC shares sank like a stone after it predicted a depressed outlook in its quarterly report. It never really recovered from last year's EMC over-purchase fiasco, and has suffered from over-priced product and missing PCIe flash.?

Google Search Now Optimized For Tablets

It's never been hard to use Google's search engine from your iPad or Android tablet ? but the experience is about to get significantly nicer. Today Google has announced that it's rolling out a new, touch-friendly version of Google search that makes some key changes for the tablet form factor. The biggest is the change in navigation. Gone is nav bar at the left hand side of the screen (which has pretty dense menus, and is thus prone to accidental taps). It's been replaced with a series of tap-friendly menus at the top of the page that let you jump between standard results, video, images, and other options. An adjacent menu will let you narrow the date range of results as well.

Dell Streak 10 Pro vs. Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1... fight!

Why look at this! Samsung's very own Galaxy Tab 10.1 decided to stop by in Beijing to greet Dell's latest tablet. As mentioned in our hands-on post, it's clear that the Streak 10 Pro would need to go on a little diet to match the Korean tablet's lovely figure and weight, though the latter won't be released in the country until some time next month. Also, there's no doubt that Sammy will continue to ask for a premium price in exchange for the better display and portability, so our wallets will be the final judge. For now, just enjoy our quick and dirty comparison photos in the gallery below. You're welcome.

Update: It appears that some of our readers are missing the point: the 16GB WiFi Galaxy Tab 10.1 is being sold for $499 in the US, and it'll most likely be more expensive in China; whereas the Streak 10 Pro is priced at just ¥2,999 ($465). So again, you get what you pay for.

How-To Stage an Email Intervention

It’s a shame. I am amazed at what some Internet users are using for web based email. Yesterday, my wife was shocked when she received an email from someone who was still using: Juno. I was shocked, too! Do you have loved ones who are still using antiqued email? Friends, family, Pastor, co-worker? There’s still hope. Stage an [...]
