Tabco Tablet Once Again Gets A Viral – Lemmings With iPads (Video)

Posted by on August 4, 2011 No comments


I guess that mocking Apple is the thing to do nowadays, if you want a product to be successful… Maybe this is why the Tabco tablet was advertised using a bunch of lemmings (read humans with iPads or maybe Android slates) heading for certain death through fall. The solution? Stand out from the crowd and use a Tabco slate!

This teaser vid is entitled Lemmings and it shows some people with similar clothing using something that looks like an iPad, till salvation comes as the Tabco tablet. Sadly we can’t get a good look at the device that some say is actually a Nokia Meego unit with large diagonal. From we can see this seems like 10 inch unit, from the way it’s held…

Companies have pulled off revolutionary ads for tablets that have failed in the past as well. Motorola was getting cool during the Super Bowl with that 1984 ad, while Toshiba mocked Apple’s lack of Flash support and LG even crushed an apple in an Optimus Pad video. Will this supposed Nokia partner also fail after its epic virals? We’ll find out on August 15th, when the device is announced!

Nokia Working on New MeeGo Device… Could it Be a Tablet?

Posted by on August 3, 2011 No comments


Although the Nokia N9 smartphone was supposed to be the first and last MeeGo device from Nokia, it seems the company is not leaving the OS behind. Inside sources are claiming that the Finns are working on yet another product and that the MeeGo team is still assembled. Could it be a tablet?

Considering the latest hype surrounding the Tabco story and the speculations about a Nokia tablet ever since we saw images leaked, a MeeGo slate from the Northern company wouldn’t be surprising. A year ago we spotted the first Nokia tablet prototypes and even a patent that copied the N8 design on a slate was seen.

The thing is that it doesn’t make sense to announce a device as your first and last MeeGo unit (N9) and then go back on your promise. One would do that if a product was hugely successful, but for the N9 we have no idea yet. People are expecting a great deal from Nokia, that’s supposed to be reborn from its ashes, just like a Phoenix. Will a MeeGo tablet fuel that rebirth?
