IDF 2012: Intel Ports Jelly Bean to Update to Android Smartphone

Lost in the commotion over the iPhone 5 news yesterday, Intel announced during the first day of its yearly developer conference that it has completed porting the latest version of Android in 4.1 Jelly Bean from its ARM-based underpinnings to the  x86 chip platform, which would allow the chipmaker to develop chipsets and related hardware around the port of the operating system.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2

Pictures and details of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 may have been leaked earlier today but it's now official. The 5.5-inch "phablet" is real and it's a beast, we don't mind telling you.

Hands-on with the Samsung ATIV Smart PC aka the Series 5 Slate

Would a Series 5 Slate be just as sweet under any other name? We've already got hands-on with the ATIV Smart PC Pro (called the Series 7 Slate in the US) and now we're going to show you the wonder that is the ATIV Smart PC -- aka, the Series 5 Slate on this side of the Atlantic. And what can we say? It's a lot like the Series 7 we checked out, though this guy is of course a smidge thinner and lighter, given the fanless design and inclusion of an Atom-based Clover Trail processor instead of something in the Ivy Bridge family. Another difference: that 11.6 inch display. It's still bright, of course, but the resolution is a...
