Leader International does Android 4.0 on the cheap with Impresion 10A, 7A tablets

It might still be a little early to name the big trend of CES 2012, but it's already clear that there's one thing we'll be seeing plenty of: inexpensive Android tablets. Little known Leader International is one of the latest to enter the fray, announcing its new Impression 10A and Impression 7A tablets. Those will set you back $299 and $179, respectively, with each running Android 4.0, and the more expensive model packing a 9.7-inch IPS display and a 1GHz Tegra 2 dual-core processor (as opposed to an unnamed 1GHz processor on the 7-incher). According to the company, you can look for both to be available at "major retailers" by the end of Q1.

HTC, Nokia to offer first LTE Windows Phones on AT&T

January 09, 2012, 2:35 PM ? Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer made a surprise appearance at AT&T's Developer Summit Monday at the Consumer Electronics Show to say that the operator would be the first to offer LTE Windows Phones, including the HTC Titan II and a phone from Nokia.

"We're thrilled to announce the first LTE Windows Phones in the U.S. on AT&T's network," Ballmer said. The Titan II will have a 16-megapixel camera, offering better resolution than even many stand-alone cameras.

Many people had expected that Nokia, which is holding a press conference later in the day, would deliver the first Windows Phone LTE device. Stephen Elop, Nokia's CEO who also made an appearance at the AT&T event, said he'd share more information about its first LTE Windows Phone at the press event. He also said the company will talk more about its reentry strategy in the U.S., where the world's largest phone maker has scant market share.

Ballmer promoted the differences between Windows Phone, which is widely praised by reviewers yet lags seriously behind competitors in sales, and other phone platforms. Specifically, he noted that Windows Phone lets developers incorporate social and other features into apps so that users don't have to open multiple apps constantly.

He also said that there are 300 apps being published daily in the Windows Phone Marketplace.

AT&T also announced six new Android devices that will run on its LTE network, including the Samsung Galaxy Note and a waterproof tablet from Pantech.

The Galaxy Note is midway between a tablet and a phone with a 5.3-inch screen. AT&T is the first to sell the device, which comes in blue and white, in the U.S. In addition to its size, the Note is unique in that it comes with a pen for controlling the device.

"This pen is not a stylus," said Kevin Packingham, a Samsung product manager. The pen allows for drawing very fine lines on the screen and enables more exact controls, he said.

AT&T will also offer the Galaxy S II Skyrocket HD, another Android phone with a 1.5Ghz dual-core processor and a removable battery.

The Samsung Exhilerate, which is made partly with recyclable materials, will also become available from AT&T.

The operator also unveiled devices from Pantech, including the Element, a waterproof tablet. AT&T is offering a deal where people can buy the tablet and the Pantech Burst phone for US$250. Otherwise, the Burst will cost under $50, AT&T said.

US to create China trade watch task force

President Barack Obama intends to create a task force to monitor and tackle possible trade and other commercial violations by China, the Wall Street Journal reports.

The Enforcement Task Force, despite its generic name, is specifically meant to target Beijing, the newspaper said, citing sources familiar with the matter.

The force will include officials from the Treasury, Commerce and Energy departments, as well as the US Trade Representative's office, according to the report which came as Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner arrived in Beijing.

The White House had no immediate comment on the report.

Obama will formally announce the launch of the task force during or close to his State of the Union address later this month, the Journal said.

Geithner, whose visit to Beijing is expected to focus on sanctions against Iran, is expected to meet top Chinese leaders including Premier Wen Jiabao on Wednesday, according to the Treasury.

The United States has long argued that China's yuan is significantly undervalued, although it refrains from saying that Beijing manipulates the currency, which could lead to retaliatory action by Congress.

Washington officials argue that Beijing's decision to keep the yuan artificially low fuels a flow of cheap exports that helped send the US trade deficit with China to more than $US270 billion ($A264.20 billion) in 2010.

But China defends its exchange rate regime, saying it is moving gradually to make the yuan more flexible.

New Hampshire Primary: Mitt Romney Wins Easily

Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman finish in second and third, respectively, with Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich pulling up the rear.

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire — What a difference a week makes.

Many voters, journalists and campaign workers were up into the wee hours of the morning seven days ago when the Iowa caucus went down to the wire. Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney won that contest by just eight votes, but in New Hampshire on Tuesday (January 10), the margin was much wider, as the longtime GOP front-runner became the first non-incumbent Republican to ever sweep the first two primaries of the election season with 36 percent of the vote when polls closed.

Thanks to a population that includes 40 percent of voters who identify as independents, it was another strong finish for Libertarian Congressman Ron Paul. With his by-now-ubiquitous cadre of young supporters spreading the word alongside unique ads on everything from digital billboards to green laser beams spelling out his name on the side of downtown Manchester buildings, Paul built on his third-place finish in Iowa, coming in second.

After barely registering in Iowa, former Utah governor and Obama administration ambassador to China Jon Huntsman put all his chips on the Granite State over the past few months. The motorcycle-riding, piano-pounding ex-high school rocker appeared at more than 170 events in New Hampshire while his rivals focused on Iowa. And while his poll numbers slowly crept up from single digits as Election Day neared, when polls closed Tuesday, Huntsman finished in third place.

Rick Santorum might have come in a close second in the Iowa caucus, but in New Hampshire, he shared last place with Newt Gingrich, nabbing around 10 percent of the vote each. Up next is January 17's South Carolina primary, where Romney faces a much harder contest with Santorum and Gingrich.

Beyonce gives birth to baby girl in NY: report (Reuters)

NEW YORK (Reuters) ? Singer Beyonce has given birth to a baby girl in New York, local media reported on Sunday.

The widely anticipated first child of the international star and R&B singer, 30, and rap mogul Jay-Z, 42, whose real name is Shawn Carter, was delivered late on Saturday in a private wing of Lenox Hill Hospital, according to the Daily News.

Spokespersons for the singer did not immediately return comment.

The singer, whose hits include "Beautiful Liar" and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on it)," showed off her pregnancy on stage earlier in the year at the MTV video awards, performing her song "Love On Top" and telling the audience to stand up. "I want you to feel the love that's growing inside of me," she said then.

Lakota school board names new president

Staff Report Updated 3:28 PM Saturday, January 7, 2012

LIBERTY TWP. ? The Lakota Board of Education has a new president.

At Thursday night?s organizational meeting, Ben Dibble was elected to serve as new board president, replacing Joan Powell. Julie Shaffer was appointed to serve as the board?s vice president, the role Dibble had previously filled.

This is Shaffer?s first time holding a public office. She was elected to the board in November.

Also, the board discussed the proposed 2012 meeting dates. The board is slated to continue to meet at 7 p.m. on the second and fourth Mondays of each month.

However, the board is proposing to move the May 28 meeting to May 29 due to the Memorial Day holiday; to meet only once in July, which would be on July 16; and to move the Nov. 12 meeting to Nov. 5 due to a conflict with the Ohio School Boards Association conference in Columbus.
