What bump when aprofessional leakstergets his line leaked ? He gets extremely , adorably “ ripshit ” demented , obviously . Singapore ’s Straits Times report Arringon’sCrunchpad web tabletis come up in November , summon the twist ’s hardware architect . Is it unfeigned , Mike ? ( UPDATED )
It ’s not wholly clear!Says the man :
re crunchpad , plainly i ’m whole ripshit demented about all this unauthorized B press : http://bit.ly/2dVjBQwtf .
He calls the press “ bs , ” but if he really wants to tell us that the report is false , or rather , if the report really is untrue , a calm , monotonic denial could more or less terminate this — something I ’m sure he make out . But no , the job here seems to be that the report was “ unauthorized , ” which is passably much the nifty affair ever , of all time .
Aside from its iffy “ World ’s First Tablet ! ” newspaper headline , the report sound credible as a whole , based around an literal confluence the paper had with Fusion Garage , and it jibes with premature “ come shortly ” grandiosity that ’d been circulating , so until a more argue , more specific and less hype - magnetic denial comes along , I ’m inclined to believe it . UPDATE : The full spec sheet :
https://gizmodo.com/crunchpad-web-tablet-landing-as-soon-as-possible-for-5307487
Hardware : A 1.6 - GHz Intel Atom central processor and 1 GB RAM .
Software : Web - centric internet browser operating system , based on Web Kit , make by Fusion Garage .
peripheral : One USB larboard is built - in , so user can connect a keyboard or mouse .
Connectivity : build - in Wi - Fi and 3 gigabyte connectivity , and a port wine for fluid broadband .
Pricing : Not confirm yet , though it is likely to be in the range of US$ 399 .
There are n’t really any surprisal on the hardware oddment , since a storageless , minimalist tablet is exactly what was promised from the start . That unconfirmed $ 400 price , though , is a full hundred dollars more than await . grant , it ’s still moderately cheap — and well under the rumored toll for the Apple tablet — but if lawful , does still sour the whole conception a petty snatch .
