7-in in One Amazon Tablets

Amazon will start shipping its 7-in tablet in October, and 10-in tablet early next year, reports Taiwan's Digitimes.com quoting upstream component suppliers.

Production of the 10-in tablet has been outsourced to Foxconn Electronics (Hon Hai Precision Industry), which also handles production of Amazon's Kindle e-book reader, production of which in 2011 is estimated to be 25-30 million units.

Amazon's 7-inch tablets would be supplied by Quanta Computer and are expected to start shipping in October, the sources added.

It has been widely reported that Amazon will introduce two tablet devices within 2011 - the entry level, dual core Coyote and the high end, quad core Kal-El-powered Hollywood.

Presumably, the 7-in tablet is the dual core Coyote, and the 10-in tablet, the quad core Kal-El powered Hollywood.

The New York Times earlier reported that the Amazon tablets are expected to cost "100s less" than the $499, entry level iPad-2.

A Forrester analyst believes Amazon could sell between 3 to 5 million Android tablets in the fourth quarter of this year with aggressive pricing that is "significantly" below the iPad.

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers Katy Perry continues working with the producers of GHD hair dryers and GHD hair care products: the singer once again demonstrated her luxurious hair in a fresh advertising campaign – this time she had the image of a diva from “the golden Hollywood” era (the pop-diva had already had the image of a hippie, a disco girl, and a mermaid). Luxurious dresses, bright makeup and a small portion of theatricality – one can immediately see that she is a star! The shooting was run by Ellen von Unwerth, who preferred to focus on restrained sensuality and the interplay of tones rather than on bright colors (the latter are always excessive with Katy) and presented black-and-white portraits of Perry to the public. The girl really looks perfect in the pictures : whether she is playing chess, recovering after a tiring concert or just getting ready to appear on stage. But whose merit is this: that of the photographer, the heroine, or maybe Photoshop?
