Thats a phone, thats a tablet, no its ASUS Padfone

asus has unveiled its 'padfone' hybrid, which features a smartphone and tablet dock, letting users centralize data storage
into a single device but offering seamless switching between the screens when a larger visualization or touchpad keys are desired.

on its own, the phone functions conventionally, but it can also be inserted into a built-in dock on the back of the tablet.
when connected, the phone effectively serves as processor for the larger screen, with all smartphone features and functions
accessible on the tablet, solving the need for data transfer back and forth between devices. display switching is done automatically
upon docking, so that apps and documents open on the phone will be instantly expanded onto the tablet screen. the dock also features
a larger battery from which the cellphone can recharge.

the prototype model debuted at computex 2011 features a 4.3-inch android smartphone and 10.1-inch tablet dock,
but asus has not yet determined the final dimensions of the eventual retail product.

Below are images of announced ASUS Padfone.

Sony Ericsson launches Android 2.1 update for AT&T Xperia X10 owners,

While most of the Android users are running Froyo on their devices, some running Gingerbread and some others getting ready for Ice Cream Sandwich that Google recently announced at their I/O event, there are few unlucky souls who are still stuck on Android 1.6 Do… Do… what was it again? Oh yes, Donut. Some of these unlucky souls include owners of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 in US on the AT&T network.
But Sony Ericsson has a heart. It heard the pleas of all these people who were crying for the latest version of Android on their device. And so they decided to take action. What have they done? Well, they released Android 2.1 update for the Xperia X10.
Yes, in a move straight out of 2010, Sony Ericsson has provided the 2.1 update to the X10 owners in the US. Poor souls! The Xperia X10 has been running on 2.1 on unlocked devices for quite some time now and Sony Ericsson has even promised a Gingerbread update later this year for the unlocked phones.
This makes us wonder what took Sony Ericsson so long to update the AT&T devices with 2.1 and whether or not they plan to provide Gingerbread later when it is made available to the unlocked X10. The best thing that can be said about this is that hey, at least you will no longer be running Do… what’s that thing again? Damn, I keep forgetting that.
