Ekoore has introduced a new touchscreen tablet called the Python. They hope it will squeeze all other tablets out of the market, but we doubt it. It’s powered by either Microsoft Windows 7 or Linux Ubuntu and has a 1.66GHz Intel Atom N455 processor and Intel GMA 3150 graphics.

The Python also features an SSD, three USB ports, a mini HDMI port, WiFi, Bluetooth and 3G support. The battery will deliver around 4 hours of operation time. Sadly there’s no info on pricing at the moment.

If you want a tablet that runs Windows, the WindPad 100W from MSI might be for you. It will cost you 550 Euros in Europe and it’s now available in the US for $709.95.

The tablet sports a 10.1-inch screen, Windows 7 Starter, Intel Atom Z530 CPU, and 2GB of RAM. It stores data and software to a 32GB SSD and has WiFi, a memory card reader, and a mini HDMI output. It’s a bit expensive, but if you want it it is available now.

Mouse Computer’s latest netbook is rocking a dual-core, 1.8GHz Intel Atom D525 processor, NVIDIA ION graphics, and an 80GB SSD. It will cost you around $600, or 49,980 yen. The Lm-mini30X also boasts 4GB of RAM, 802.11b/g/n WiFi, HDMI output, and a 64-bit copy of Windows 7 Home Premium.

There’s also a slightly lower-spec Lm-mini30S, with 2GB of RAM, a 320GB hard drive, and 32-bit Windows. That will cost you 37,800 yen, or about $450. Assuming either ever gets release in the States. We aren’t holding our breath waiting.

If you have important data on your notebook that you take with you so you can work on the go, you should be backing it up. The problem is that some data is so important you need to do more than just save it to an external HDD. This is why folks use RAID arrays in an office setting.

NewerTech has unveiled a new portable RAID storage solution that supports RAID 0 and RAID 1 with dual drives inside. The device is called the Guardian Maximus mini and it sports four different interfaces to allow it to work with Mac and PCs.

Elecom’s Nano SSD is a mini Solid State Drive hardisk that can be installed directly on your computer’s motherboard so that it’s out of your way. It measures just 25mm x 6.5mm x 39mm and supports Serial ATA Revision 2.6 specifications and delivers a high speed data transfer.

It’s priced at 13,900 Yen or about $165. You can get the Elecom Nano SSD in 8GB and 16GB storage capacities.

Windows 7 wasn’t exactly meant for tablet devices, but we are seeing it on tablets more often. Now Pegatron has their new MasterPad prototype tablet, measuring just 14mm thin with an 11.6″ IPS (In Plane Switching) display, running at 1,366 x 768 widescreen resolution.

Some other specifications include a 1.3-megapixel webcam with a microphone, USB ports, a memory card reader, an accelerometer, a mini-HDMI port, 3G and 32GB or 64GB SSD options. The body is magnesium and aluminum alloy. The 2-cell battery is a bit disappointing but hopefully the final product will better.

ADATA has a new solid state drive. The latest is in the form of the S596 Turbo Series. It’s based on the JMicron JMF616 controller and supports SATA II and mini-USB dual interfaces for more convenience and flexibility. This SSD drive can be used as external portable storage or as an installed disk in your laptop. That’s what they mean by flexible and convenient.

The ADATA S596 Turbo Series has a read speed up to 260MB/s and a write speed up to 210MB/s. You can get the S596 Turbo Series in 32GB, 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB storage capacities.

The Viliv N5 is like a netbook…for tiny people. You’ll get all the specs that you would find in a regular 10″ netbook, aside from the 4.8″ display. But at least you can fold it up and put it in your pocket. Dynamism is even offering same day shipping if you must have it now.

The N5 features a 3G modem for about $799, but if you want a Wi-Fi only version you’ll need to wait until July 19th when it will cost you $649. The Viliv N5 is powered by Windows 7, with an Intel Atom Z520 1.3GHz processor, 1GB RAM, a QWERTY keyboard and a 32GB SSD.

Patriot has been around for a long time and makes a variety of gear for the computer enthusiast. Patriot has a bunch of SSDs for storage and makes system memory and other devices as well. The company has announced its latest memory card is now available.

The card is the 64GB Patriot LX Series SDXC card. The thing has 64GB of storage, which is a ton of storage space for a small SD card form factor. The LX card is a UHS-1 device meaning it has bus speed up to 104MB/s.

Dell’s new 15-inch Precision M4500 with a Core i5-520M 2.5GHz starts at $1,549 and still packs in NVIDIA Quadro FX 880M Graphics. Realistically it will cost you a bit more. I mean, you’ll want to upgrade 2GB of slow RAM, a 1366 x 768 LCD, and there’s no WiFi at that price.

You’ll want to go for options like a secondary 64GB SSD minicard drive and Precision ON. So you can expect it to be in the $2,500+ range.

When it comes to flash drives, most of them all use the USB port. Some larger external HDDs available use eSATA, but that connectivity option is not common on flash drives. The OCZ Throttle does offer eSATA and is virtually identical to this new Active Media Products drive.

The drive has 16GB or 32GB capacities available with prices of $69.95 and $109.95 respectively. The drives both have an eSATA connector on one end and a mini USB port on the other.

Corsair has a couple of new SSDs in the Nova and Reactor. The Nova comes in 64GB and 128GB capacities, while the Reactor series comes in 60GB and 120GB capacities. The Nova is a 2.5″ SSD that uses MLC NAND chips and 64MB of cache, for read speeds of up to 215MB/s on both the V128 and V64, with writing speeds of 130MB/s for the V64 drive and 195MB/s for the larger V128.

The Reactor series is equipped with a 128MB cache and read/write speeds of up to 250/110 MB/s for the 60GB model and 250/170 MB/s for the 120GB model. The Reactor series also features a mini USB port.

If you purchased a netbook from Asus a while back that used an SSD, you may have the thing packed with files now and be out of storage space. If so you are in luck; a company called Active Media Products has unveiled a line of upgrade SSDs that offer more performance and more storage.

The new line of SSDs is called the SaberTooth S4 series and they are compatible with the Asus S101, 900, 900A, 901, and 1000 Eee netbooks. They will also work with other machines that use mini PCIe card storage with the SATA-II interface.

Turns out that the Dell Mini 9 can be modded into a sexy looking internet tablet. Who is responsible for this? A dude named Rob, who is a MyDellMini forum member. He turned his Del Vostro A9, which is a business version of the Mini 9, into a Windows 7 touchscreen.

This bad boy holds a 16GB SSD, WiFi, Bluetooth, 1GB of RAM and an Intel Atom N270 processor. Rob has further plans for it, like adding an accelerometer to automatically adjust the screen orientation and a small USB fan for temperature control.

Netbook SSDs have come in several forms, but finding the right model for your machine is about to get much easier thanks to the SATA-IO working group having just announced a new mini-SATA standard called mSATA that should get it all uniform and reduce it’s footprint some.

Toshiba’s the first now with 32nm drives in 30 and 62GB sizes, but you can expect to see mSATA drives and machines from a bunch of big names in the future. Players like Samsung, Dell, HP, SanDisk, Lenovo, and STEC. We can all hold out hope that standardization will lead to lower prices as well.
