NVIDIA has already announced the Tegra 4 earlier this month, and Vizio is the first, in our opinion, to showcase an actual product running Tegra 4. We’re talking about Vizio’s 10.1-inch Tegra 4 tablet that was demoed to us at CES 2013. Now, DigiTimes is reporting that Toshiba, too, is planning to launch its own Tegra 4-powered tablet in June this year. Citing from Taiwanese supply chain makers, the publication says that Asus and Acer are still undecided about using Tegra 4. Sources told DigiTimes that Tegra 4 is merely a backup solution for now, since Asus has a close partnership with Qualcomm. (more…)

The time has rolled around for Google to address the antitrust issues concerning the company with the European Commission, with the search engine giant providing its antitrust settlement proposal just before the January 31 deadline it was given. Sources said to be familiar with the situation have chimed into say that the proposal is a lot like what we saw in the FTC settlement.

Everything else aside, it seems Google will not have to acknowledge that it has done anything wrong. The proposal was submitted after negotiations, and while similar to the FTC settlement, is said to have some differences worth noting. One such difference is the likelihood that Google will beef up search labeling of its own items, and that this proposal will exclude mention of patents.

According to AllThingsD, the information is said to come from sources present at the negotiations that took place in Brussels. Unlike the FTC settlement, which was rampant with leaks to the point of prompting an investigation, the European Commission proposal has been far more closed off and tight knit. If all this proves to be true, those critical of the FTC settlement are likely to be just as unhappy with the EC proposal.

Neither the European Commission nor Google have offered any statements on the information, with the latter simply stating that it is continuing to work with the EC. Although all information that comes from sources like this should not be taken without a healthy dose of skepticism, some other outlets are also reporting that Google has submitted the proposal.

While even the most ferocious bidding war at Christie’s or Sotheby’s will remain stately and reserved, cattle auctions devolve into frantic, rapid-fire calls the moment the steer enter their pen. But as Werner Herzog once quipped, these steer sellers speak “the last poetry possible, the poetry of capitalism.” More »
