Have we reached the ebook tipping point?
Ebook advocates got a hefty dose of validation this week, after Amazon announced that it is now selling more ebooks than paperbacks overall. It followed on from an earlier announcement in January, when the company revealed that it sold more Kindle ebooks than paperbacks in the US during the final three months of last year. Now, it seems that the Kindle craze is spreading further, and wider. Since April 1, Amazon has sold 105 ebooks for the Kindle platform, for every 100 print books sold. That's pretty amazing for a platform that only launched four years ago. Have we reached the tipping point for electronic books and magazines?

Tablet PC transformed by Asus
It has not been an easy task for anyone. Not one single player has so far made a dent on Apple's dominance in this catch-up game of tablets. We have seen several attempts from all of the major players. We know Samsung tried, and so did Motorola. Merely weeks ago, our home-grown Research In Motion unveiled its long-awaited tablet, but the splash went silent. Even this week, RIM issued a recall on about 1,000 of its PlayBook devices.
Can anyone really dethrone Apple in this tablet war?

CES: Phones got smarter, so did TVs
A question has been plaguing me at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas: with so many options now available, what are TV buyers supposed to do?
The big buzz item this year – and last year – has been 3D TVs. While there have been some whispers that this might just be a trend, there’s no doubt that the way we consume television is changing.
So I went looking for some answers.
