Repost here! Original post here http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/287799-jide-ultra-tablets-from-the-ex-googler%E2%80%99s-android-microsoft-surface-replica-looks-os-looks-like-windows-8/ Microsoft’s Surface tablet has inspired a few clones during its short history, but the latest rip off comes from three ex-Google engineers. Jeremy Zhou, David Ko, and Ben Luk used to work on products like Google Maps and search at the web giant, and formed Jide Technology in 2014 to create a combined tablet and laptop. This REMIX tablet with a magnetically attached keyboard and a kickstand that all looks identical to Microsoft’s Surface tablet. Jide Technology hasn’t just stopped at the hardware, though. Even the "Remix OS" rips off Microsoft’s work in various ways, including a mail client that’s a straight copy. The Remix is built with a combination of plastic and metal that makes the device feel premium when holding it. Along the edges you will find stereo speakers, a headphone jack, microUSB port with an included OTG adaptor so you have a full sized USB port, and a microSD card slot that allows you to added up to 128GB of additional storage along side of your built in 64GB or 16GB of flash storage. Here are some additional specs: NVIDIA 4+1 processor 2GB of RAM 5MP rear and front-facing cameras 11.6" 1080p IPS display To charge the tablet, Jide has a proprietary 4-pin charger that plugs into the right side of the device. Along the bottom of the Remix Ultra Tablet is a 6-pin magnetic connector that allows for Jide's keyboard cover to connect to. The cover has a full size keyboard with keys that have very little throw and a touchpad that works well navigating the tablet. The Remix Ultra Tablet is currently running a customized version of Android 4.4.2 called Remix OS, though they say an Android 5.0 update is in the works. This modified version of Android was designed to work more like your classic PC but run all your favorite applications and will ship with Google Play certification. When you enter into the Ultra Tablet you are greeted with your standard Android home screen but the bottom of the screen has an extended application drawer. This space has your home and back on-screen buttons and can hold your favorite or most used applications. Additionally, when you have an application open in the background, the application's icon will stay in the dock so you can come back to it. The killer feature in Remix OS that is shown off on the Ultra Tablet is its multi-window support. When you open an Android application you can press the Jide logo that is displayed in the lower right hand side of the display and switch between the app's full screen mode or a window. Basically, when you want your app to run in its own smaller window, the tablet is tricking the app to run as if it was being used on a phone. Pricing & Availability: The Remix Ultra Tablet is going into production now to be sold in the Chinese market and is planned to begin sales of the tablet in the U.S. and U.K. in Q2 or Q3 of 2015. Jide believes that when it comes to the U.S. market that the 64GB model will cost $449 and that 16GB model will be available for $349. Additionally, the Remix will come to the market in several colors such as a "bright red" and a "clean silver." Images: Source: TheVerge, AndroidCentral, Main Website

So that basic witchcraft on the new MacBook that lets you have a solid piece of aluminum function like a proper trackpad that clicks without having any movement is (ideally) coming to Apples own keyboards. Why? Who knows. A laptop keyboard that has no mechanism can help you shave even more off the thickness (Apple loves them thin things) but in a more serious way, it can probably solve a big problem with thinner keyboards - crappy response. I don't know about you guys, but a lot of laptop keyboards just don't have enough feedback. Having it all controlled through haptic feedback and letting you even configure what response a key gives when you press it? Very cool. Hopefully this escape the typical "we did it for the sake of patenting" and makes it into proper production. http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/19/apple-researching-taptic-feedback-for-keyboards-with-no-physical-keys/

So I got this surface pro 3 about a week after it was released. It worked great initially and then a couple of weeks ago the top 3rd of the screen (when in landscape mode) has been somewhat unresponsive to touch and randomly signals that I am pressing there when I am not. Touching somewhere else on the screen stops it from saying I am touching in that upper area. Also the whole screen works fine when using the pen, its only with my hands that it is having this problem. I have updated to all the latest software multiple times, cleaned the screen, reset calibration, and pretty much anything you can think of short of a hard reset. I do not want to send it in to microsoft even though it is under warranty right now because I use it every day for class for both notes and for excel and word. Any advice?

Original article was posted on DigiTimes. From KitGuru's article: So apparently demand for touch-screen notebooks has been too low to make them viable, and as such touch-screens as a regular feature are going to cease production by the end of this year. 2-in-1 devices and many ultrabooks will still feature touch-screens, however. Just figured it'd be worth posting this, considering Linus' recent comments on is Aorus X3 video about how touch-screens are a valuable feature to some. AND, with the reveal of Windows 10 (10? Really?), do you think this could counterproductive for Microsoft?

Hi, My 3 year old iPod Touch 4G 32gb has a broken screen and a terrible battery life, I just got an iPod Touch 4G 8gb from my nephew and was wondering if I should use the parts of it to repair my 32GB one? The 8gb iPod Touch is perfectly fine, the only downside is the terrible storage size... The risk is that if I break something and am left with 2 functionless iPod Touches. Would like to know your thoughts

Just another random poll on typing habits. Personally I use left hand for both space bar and shift (thumb and pinky) respectively, even though I am right handed, yet a lot of my friends use their right hand for both because they are right handed. I think the reason why I use my left hand so much is due to all the time I spent gaming and using WASD that it's just muscle memory because my right hand was almost always on my mouse.

I was talking to my friend the other day and he noted how I typed 'wrong' because I didn't follow the basic keyboard finger map, instead my hands danced all over the place and I didn't always use the same finger to press a key, instead of the proper way of typing where your fingers always rest on the home row. I was just wondering am I the only one that types like this? Personally I find having my fingers lingering on the home row to be uncomfortable and slow and I am able to type significantly quicker when I am able to switch it around a bit. In case you're wondering what the finger map is it's this thing:

So engadget are reporting that Acer will be releasing a 27 inch touch display for about £675. Sounds good doesn't it? Wait, there's more. It's WQHD. Yes, it's 2560 x 1440. Did I mention it's touch as well? So for not much more than the cheapo, warrenteeless Korean 2560 x 1440 monitor I'm looking at at the moment, you can have a legitimate Acer touch display. I think it's good news that we're finally getting some higher resolution displays at reasonable prices as we move on towards 4k. http://www.engadget.com/2013/09/02/acer-27-inch-wqhd-touch-display/ A search for acer, 27 inch, wqhd returned 0 results.

Hey guys I'm back again with another Linux issue The problem is that when I tap the screen the mouse moves to my finger showing that it is registered, but it doesn't "click" what I tap. In Ubuntu 14.04 the touch screen worked just fine, so I know this can be fixed...somehow. Some information: I'm using Elementary OS (12.04) on my Lenovo Yoga 2 11.6 and I'm on the latest LTS Saucy kernel Thanks for the help

The Story: I think the best place to start is with a bit of backstory. my parents are remodeling the kitchen, and we were talking about recessing a TV into the wall. jokingly, I said "why don't you just put a touchscreen PC there?" My father thought I was serious, but I realized that it really wasn't that far off, so here we are. The Goal: The Goal of this build is to create a computer where you see the interface, a 27 Inch acer 1080p touch monitor. absolutely nothing else of the computer should be visible, or even known to exist. it should serve as an entertainment hub for the kitchen, providing easy internet access, streaming, live TV, and windows 8 Apps. the final goal of the system is to achieve everything while having a computer that is completely silent and idles at <30 watts The Design: To accomplish our goal of making the computer invisible, it will be hidden in the wall of the adjacent office. air will be drawn into the wall cavity on the office side, down through the wall cavity past the computer and my networking components, and forced out around the fridge, cooling the fridge and also making that operate more efficiently. the system will be covered with a plexiglass or Lexan door, and on top of that will hang a picture, so that only we will know what lies behind it. Front and center of our build will be our monitor, we chose the acer T27HL-BMIDZ, which can be found online for around $600. It is a pricy monitor, but it is sleek, has USB 3.0, and provides great color and viewing angles with an IPS panel, and of course, edge to edge glass with 10 point multi-touch. To power the machine, we chose to go with a Corsair CX430 V2. it's quiet, Reliable, and has 80 Plus Bronze Efficiency to keep it within a small idle power envelope. it can be had for around $40 or occasionally as low as $20 with rebates for the motherboard, I decided to go with a Haswell board that would be reliable, easy to work with, low power, and high value. the closest fit to this i have found is the ASUS H87m-e. it has all the interfaces I need, supports Haswell chips and systems have been reported to idle at around 25 watts with this board. coming in at about $99 our choice of CPU is still a bit undecided, but it will be a Haswell I3 or I5 with GT2(hd 4400 or 4600) graphics. needing little more video oomph than for youtube and angry birds, we decided that Intel integrated on Haswell would be enough, after testing out our monitor on a windows 8 laptop with the inferior HD4000 graphics(on which I am writing this Log) for storage, we will use a 90GB OCZ Vertex 3, which is being transplanted from the main rig for upgrades. It's simple, It's fast enough, and has plenty of storage for programs in this system. additionally, the system will have a mechanical drive for network backups and possibly DVR functionality. to cool the little beast, we will have 4 Cougar 120mm fans pulling air into the wall cavity, two dedicated to the system, two to the network(seperated by a beam in the wall cavity. for our CPU cooler, we plan on using a Noctua NH-L9i, which should be plenty for the processor we use, and keep the system quite quiet. $45 for memory, we plan on using a dual channel kit of two 4gb 1600mhz sticks for a total of 8gb of Memory, which should be plenty for a basic windows 8 system. we expect to spend around $75 for this Sound will likely be taken care of with a pair of In Wall speakers powered by a Dayton audio Class T amp, but that is currently undecided. This is where I plan to hide the components. once complete, the cavity will be drywalled a few inches above the bottom of the picture, and will be a window above that that can be opened to access the computer and network. Components procured as of now: Power Supply: Corsair cx430 Monitor: acer t27hl-bmidz Ram: Corsair vengeance 2x4gb 1600mhz gold SSD: OCZ Vertex 3 90gb

In my school we use smart boards and they do suck. Our teachers haven't undergone any kind of training and it is a constant battle every day to even get a powerpoint running because of their software, Smart Ink. It is an add-on for Microsoft Office. They can be great once you know how to use them, but without any training there is no hope. So is there any custom software that can be used to make these boards more useful. Or any tweaks that can be applied to make things easier for a classroom setting.

Hey, i want to do something with my old ipod touch 4g, it's just collecting dust for the moment, and i don't want to sell it for like 20 bucks. One idea i like is to use it as a file server, to store small files that i want to reach fast and easy, is there any free and easy way to do that? Jailbreak is most of the part no problem, but i want to avoid it if possible. Any other things i could do with it? Don't be afraid to make suggestions Thanks.

sooo, my lenovo flex 14 screen kept flickering with white lines, it's really bothering me, there's a warning that graphics driver crashed but it flickers almost all the time. maybe it's the ribbon cable connecting it to the screen... but i don't know. what do you guys think?

Pretty much my brother gave me this surface after some dumbbutt sat on it (it was in his backpack) and pretty much the Surface thinks I am touching on two separate points on the screen all the time, making it difficult to use. I barely logged in, but now I can't even access settings to disable touch input. I need to know if it is possible to replace just the glass cover of the screen, and then have it work? Or do I have to fork out $150 for a whole new screen?
