No Apple Tablet Until Late 2010

Apple plans to postpone the launch of its tablet PC from March until the second half of 2010, DigiTimes reports, citing “sources from component makers.” The Taiwan-based news site reports that the delay reflects a decision to switch some components and to launch a model using a 9.7-inch OLED panel from LG Display (LPL). The story says that Foxconn Electronics, Quanta Computer and Pegatron Technology will be manufacturing partners for two tablet PC models, one with a 10.6-inch LCD panel and the other using the OLED display. Citing sources, the story asserts that the OLED model is likely to have a cost of about $1,500-$1,700, due in part to a $500 price tag on the OLED panel. But the piece also notes that OLED panel prices “are dropping rapidly,” and could bring the cost of the device down to $1,200-$1,500 by the second half of next year, with retail pricing of about $2,000. The story says the LCD model is expected to be priced in the $800-$1,000 range.

A 3D high resolution digital map scanned in low campus in Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken NJ. This digital map contains a 10 million point cloud, stitched together from 9 separate scans.  At a robotics conference last week, a vehicle called ROAMS demonstrated a cheap approach to mobile map-making. ROAMS (Remotely Operated and Autonomous Mapping System) was created by researchers at the Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, NJ, with funding from the U.S. Army. It uses several existing mapping technologies to build 3D color maps of its surroundings, and it was demonstrated at the 2009 IEEE conference.

TENORI-On White (TNR-W) has conquered the hearts and won the appreciation of the masses since its launch in 2007 but not without the drawback of being too pricy (retail price of $1,200) thus out-of-reach for the majority of its fans. TENORI-On ‘Orange’ (TNR-O) is the fruit of the efforts of Yamaha to come out with a more pocket-friendly offer. Peter Peck from Yamaha explains that they have achieved the cost-cut through “removing the battery option and the back panel LED’s and changing the chassis construction from the magnesium found on the original to a more affordable material . So good news. Without sacrificing none from its quality and performance, TNR-O is as sleek as ever, this time coming with Orange LED and durable plastic frame.

Acai berries, found in the Amazon, are believed to have healthy qualities and may also help the big box retailer in a down economy. Acai Berry Juice sold some $40 million within its first 90 days on the market and is expected to hit roughly $110 million in sales next year, Lindsay Duncan, Genesis Today founder, president & CEO, told CNBC. The Brazilian berry juice, developed by Wal-Mart and Genesis Today, contains the protein content of an egg, the fat content of olive oil and the highest level of antioxidants known to any food, claimed Duncan. Studies at the University of Florida also indicate that acai killed 86 percent of Leukemia cells in a laboratory, Duncan said
