The use of tablet PC’s / ipads has tremendously increased over the last one year and it is predicted that in the next 5 years ipads will completely takeover the laptops. The Apple has been the leader in Ipad makers followed by Samsung, Dell, Motrolla,Asus and kindle. The Apple’s ipad1,ipad2 and now ipad 3 as well as Samsungs Galaxy Tab, Motorola XOOM and Dell streak 7 have revolutionized the tablet PC’s/ ipad’s industry.
The Tablet PC’s are normally very costly in Pakistan but Pakistan telecommunication (PTCL) introduced its first ipad in an affordable price in August 14, 2011.The good part of it is that it’s an Android tablet. It provides Broad band internet services on the go. Initially its price was approximately Rs 28000/- with some months free internet package but recently on 16 October, 2012 PTCL announced sale of EVO tab on through away price of just Rs 12000/- with 3 months of unlimited internet package.It also merits attention that PTCL Evo Tab supports GSM networks means that you can use it as a cellular mobile phone.However if you are not comfortable with its bigger size as compared to normal cell phone a Bluetooth can be used for voice calling as added support.
Earlier the package was too costly, Here is the old AD
The original manufacture of EVO tab is not disclosed but it is thought of one of the variant of indonasian made IVIO twilight 7 which is ownned by an indonasian company PT.intersys.
Although PTCL Evo tab is much cheaper than its competitors in the market but never the less in such a cheap price it has almost all the functions what you need in a Tablet PC. So why to go for costly ipads or touch screen mobile phones when EVO tab has every thing you need.

Sony Xperia AX
Sony has announced its latest addition to the Xperia line-up, the Xperia AX. The handset is meant only for the Japanese market, and is similar to the recently announced Xperia V.
The Xperia AX sports a 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor, an Adreno 225 GPU, 1GB of RAM, a 4.3-inch HD Reality Display with 720p resolution powered by Mobile BRAVIA Engine 2, a 13MP camera at its back and the usual connectivity features such as GPS with A-GPS, NFC and Wi-Fi etc.
Since the Xperia AX is targeted towards the Japanese market, it comes with some Japan-specific features such as infrared port data exchange, mobile wallet, and mobile TV among others. The AX looks exactly like the Xperia V and even has the IP57 certification as the former.
The handset will sadly launch with Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich on-board with Sony’s new Media applications such as Walkman, Album, Movies and more. Sony did not specifiy as to when the handset will be available in Japan, but it should ideally be around the same time as the Xperia V hits the shelves in Europe.

The best browser for Android


The stock Android browser is pretty good, but we think Opera Mobile has the edge for smartphones: it’s got a lovely interface, goes like the clappers – we’ve previously described it as “comically fast” on decent kit – and synchronises well with its desktop cousin. On tablets, the standard browser is still our preferred option: while Dolphin for Pad and Firefox are looking pretty nifty, they’re both still in beta.

2.

Avira Free Antivirus : Avira is a very intelligent and proactive antivirus solution with virus definitions and detection rate higher than any of the antivirus we have listed down here,also it seemed to be the fastest.The only downside would be its clustered user interface which might not be very user friendly to many.But if you are a regular user and don’t mind trying to figure out what is what in UI,this should be the right antivirus for you.

5. Avg Free Antivirus :AVG is an old player and hence a trusted one too.The AVG free edition has great potential but the heavy resource usage makes it rather undesirable.But if you are running a pc with a good configuration then we don’t see why you should not use it.
