Samsung Sliding PC 7
With all the news about new tablets running Android 3.0 Honeycomb, tablets running Windows got lost in the shadows. But out of all the Windows tablets introduced at CES, the most intriguing, and unique was the Samsung Sliding PC 7. The Samsung Sliding PC 7 will have a 10 inch capacitive multi-touch touchscreen with 1366 x 768 pixel resolution, with a built in keyboard, which slides out from under the screen and transforms the tablet into a "LapTab." Not only is the design well thought out, but the hardware inside is not too shabby either. The Samsung Sliding PC 7 is equipped with a brand new Intel Oak Trail CPU clocked at 1.6 GHz, 2 GB of memory, and 128 GB of flash storage.
Designed for users who would like portability the tablet weighs in at 2.2 pounds, has touch capabilities, and a physical QWERTY keyboard. Another important aspect of the tablet is that is runs Windows 7OS. This means that all applications and programs the can be run on regular PCs can be run on the Samsung tablet. That includes the all-important, MS Word, MS, Excel, and MS Outlook.
You might be wondering then what is so special. Well it is not revolutionary; there are many tablets that run on Windows, but none that use this form factor. The slide out keyboard is truly unique. The Samsung Sliding PC also comes with the usual peripherals: HDMI port which with an adapter turns into a USB port, audio jack, and 4 in 1 memory card reader. It also has Bluetooth, 3G and WiMax connectivity. The battery is standard as usual with maximum 9 hours of usage on a single charge, but like in apple products, is not removable. The tablet does come with both a front and back facing cameras, which presumably will allow for video chat through Skype.
The Samsung Sliding PC 7 hasn't arrived quite yet, and tech sources predict a May arrival with an expected price tag of $700. Images given to the public so far are only a mock-up, and do not yet represent the real thing. It certainly seems to be a more niche focused product. As a device though, it's pretty sound and for professionals it is a step forward in the right direction.

How can i fix the input jack on a Fender Squier Strat Affinity?
I have already tried tightening the jack but it didn't work. When I plug the cable into the jack it doesn't lock. It slides in and loosely stays there and makes no sound in the amplifier.
Hello! This is an easy fix; simply remove the screws holding the output jack retainer (dress plate) to the guitar body, and pull the jack assembly out far enough to check both the wiring and the jack itself. In most cases, all that is needed is to wipe a cotton swab dipped in alcohol across the contact surfaces, and then bend the sheet metal tang in slightly to make firmer contact with the plug tip. These jacks do get out-of-kilter even when brand-new, and need maintenance just like everything else on a guitar. If the wiring is broken or loose, it will need re-soldering. Make sure there is no foreign matter inside the jack that is preventing good electrical contact with the plug tip and ring. If it turns out that the input jack is not the culprit, it is probably a wire that has come loose elsewhere in the circuitry. Expose the wiring at the switch and control area, and look for any detached wires. Re-solder where needed and you should be good to go! Let me know if I can help further. Best regards, Dana
