- With Apple now targeting the Amazon Fire, Amazon is now targeting the iPhone with its announcement that it will begin development on an Amazon Phone. Amazon has even enlisted Foxconn, the same company that makes all Apple’s iDevices to begin development of its Android powered phone.
- With the new Google and Microsoft tablets everyone has been waiting for a response from Amazon, this may come in the form of no fewer than THREE new Kindle Fire 2 tablets. CNET reports rumors of a new 7” tablets, with camera, sans camera, and featuring 4G, and a new 8.9’ tablet with high quality display.

Olympus’s headset promises to be more of a heads up display. overlaying augmented reality data on its glasses, and providing updates via connection with a tablet or presumably phone.
