tablets that appear to be everywhere at the moment.

How to free up space on your iOS device
Computers used to be all about expandability. Essentially you owned a
box that could be tailored to your needs as your requirements evolved. A
popular upgrade path was storage, adding new hard drives as your files
grew in size and number. But with Apple's touchscreen revolution,

While Android smartphones continue to thrive and Android tablets - but for a few exceptions - continue to flounder, Asus has come up with a novel way to capitalise on the former and circumvent the latter.
Mash them both together.
However, Asus doesn't quite seem to have decided on a definitive format. Both the Asus Padfone 2 and the Asus FonePad combine key elements of the smartphone and tablet form factors, but they go about it in very different ways.
