Sylvania Android tablet available from CVS for just $75

CVS is selling a 7 inch Android tablet for the lowest price I can ever remember seeing. The Sylvania 7″ Mini Tablet is available online for $99.99, but you can drop the price to $75 by applying the coupon: APRIL25EC. It’s not a particularly good Android tablet, but if you’re just looking for a device for surfing the web, watching some…

Sylvania launches a 10 inch tablet for some reason

J&R is now taking orders for one of the cheapest 10 inch tablets I’ve seen to date. It’s a Sylvania Magni Tablet for $199.99. Unfortunately, it looks like you get what you pay for. The tablet has a ridiculously low resolution display, an outdated ARM 11 processor, and just 256MB of RAM and 2GB of storage. The tablet has an…

Under the hood of the Sylvania PID7901 Android tablet

Thinking of picking up one of those $180 Sylvania Android tablets from KMart, but don’t want to pull the trigger until you know what the motherboard looks like?

$100 netbook coming soon to a CVS near you

You know how a few years ago a $100 laptop seemed like the stuff dreams were made of? Even the folks at the OLPC foundation never actually managed to bring the price of their revolutionary XO Laptop down to $100. But you know where you’ll be able to pick up a $100 mini-laptop soon? At your neighborhood CVS drug store….

Sylvania to sell the Foxconn SZ901P in the US?

Remember that Foxconn netbook that hit the FCC a few days ago? It looks like Sylvania is going to rebrand it and sell it under its name in the US. At least that’s my best guess as to what’s going on based on the fact that there’s a new set of documents on the FCC web site showing the Foxconn…

Hands-on time with the Sylvania G Meso leave some fingerprints

Laptop Magazine’s Joanna Stern got to spend some quality time with the upcoming Sylvania G MESO laptop this afternoon. Her verdict? The keyboard is kind of small, the speakers are loud but tinny, and everything else is more or less decent. There are a few things that make the Sylvania G MESO’s design stand out from the competition. It’s entirely…

Update: Sylvania to release TWO more netbooks this summer

Yesterday we discovered that there would be a new netbook bearing the Sylvania name this fall, the Sylvania G MESO. The MESO is an 8.9 inch sequel to Sylvania’s 7 inch Sylvania G notebook. But it looks like Sylvania ain’t stopping there, because Laptop Magazine reports there’s also a 10 inch model in the works, to be known as the…

Sylvania gets serious about netbooks, announces G MESO

The upcoming Sylvania G MESO won’t be Sylvania’s first foray into the netbook market. But the original Sylvania G is basically just an Everex Cloudbook knockoff (which is to say it’s based on the VIA NanoBook reference design and has a 30GB hard drive, 1.2GHz VIA C7-M CPU, 7 inch display, and a tiny, tiny trackpad). The G MESO, on…
