Texas Instruments is one of those few companies that can be shouted wholeheartedly that are leading the industry. I don't think I even have to detail the many technologies this company has offered to the market, so I will skip that and tell you about the Blaze Tablet that you can see to the left.


The Blaze tablet should be available sometime in August, with some outstanding features if we look better at them. First of all, this is designed around the Blaze development kit, and features the Texas Instruments OMAP4, clocked at 1GHz. Display's first, and measures 10.4-inches, with a 1024 x 768-pixel resolution, besides being a touchscreen.

Memory-wise, the Blaze sports 1GB of IpDDR2 RAM, with 32GB of storage capacity through eMMC v4.41. As for the connectivity part, mind that the Blaze has support for external pico DLP projectors, packs an HDMI and DisplayPort connectors, as well as two USB 2.0. Also, a thing that needs to be clear is that the Blaze is not just your average consumer tablet, but one that was built for developers and application designers.

That's because it supports so many external modules, and even more internal additions. I mean, there's more than enough space in there to fit a mobile modem, wireless LAN, Bluetooth connectivity, GPS and even an FM tuner. Until time comes in August, you can watch the hands-on preview the guys at Slashgear made.
