Does Pantech's "Fablet" trademark mean they're trying to enter the big phone arena?


Trademarks can be a funny business. Sometimes they're so vague that you can't do much but express a big “WTF” in your mind, and other times they have a way of letting you know exactly how a company is thinking. Such is the case with Pantech, who has trademarked the “Fablet” character mark. This is quite interesting, as it's a direct homophone of the “phablet” word that has been tossed around as of late.

Mercedes-Benz Wants To Use Google Glass To Provide A Seamless GPS Experience

Mercedes-Benz Wants To Use Google Glass To Provide A Seamless GPS Experience

GPS navigational systems have evolved over the years, with our smartphones these days being more than capable of doubling up as a navigation system as well, but sometimes just because you can be directed to your destination, there are times when you still need to do a bit of searching before you find it. An example would be how a navigation system could guide you to a particular area, but finding the shop itself could be tricky, or there might not be a drivable road. Well Mercedes-Benz is hoping to change that with Google Glass.

Asus Could Enter US Smartphone Market In 2014

Asus Could Enter US Smartphone Market In 2014

Up until today, Asus has had pretty decent success in the tablet world, especially when they are the ones behind the Nexus 7 tablet as well as the recently announced Nexus 7 2 from Google. Well, on their own, there is also the good looking Transformer series that fly the Asus banner high, but where smartphones are concerned, you can say that Asus has remained pretty much on the sidelines without any notable releases to challenge the flagships of other manufacturers.
