But they might be the best apps that promise to trick your friends into thinking you’re in a relationship when really you’re just sad and lonely and watching too many of the Netflix and eating all the pizza. The best.

The enterprise tablet market is not a very large one, and users in this particular niche can be said to be more demanding of the hardware that they use, simply because time is money – and if one were to be as productive as possible, then it would mean saving , or making a whole lot of money within the shortest time possible. Having said that, HP intends to deliver an entry level tablet to the enterprise market in the form of the HP Pro Tablet 408 G1.

Earlier in the morning, we did bring you word that Borderlands would be arriving on both the Xbox One as well as the Sony PS4, and in order to entice more gamers in this day and age, publishers are pretty slick in marketing their products – including throwing in a special edition bundle of sorts from time to time to pique your interest – as well as helping you part with your hard earned money, of course. There is a novelty factor to it all, and for those who have decided to pick up the vanilla Borderlands: The Handsome Collection, it will retail for $59.99 a pop as it arrives in North America and international markets this March 24 and March 27, respectively.
As for those who want something more, the Claptrap-in-a-Box Edition is certainly worth checking out – especially when you have extra coin to drop. The asking price for the Claptrap-in-a-Box Edition happens to stand at $399, and as mentioned earlier, will be limited to a mere 5,000 copies, so get them while they are hot. One does wonder whether an unopened package that is still factory sealed will be worth anything many years from now, like what we have seen with the Stadium Events auction? Only time will tell.

I am quite sure that most of us are pretty much familiar with the hands-free concept when it comes to using our smartphones while driving – as it lets us concentrate more on the road ahead with two hands on the wheel. Well, how about hands-free scanning? This is what the Adesso NuScan 6000 omnidirectional barcode scanner intends to deliver, allowing users at the checkout counter to scan various barcoded items rapidly without omissions or errors on first-pass reads. Just how powerful and versatile is it? We are looking at a scan speed up to 2000 scans per second.
The Adesso NuScan 6000 works by letting a 650 nm laser diode within that enables users to scan with precision and accuracy, all from an operating distance of up to 8.5 inches from the barcode as its omnidirectional 24-line scanning engine would pave the way for reliable readings as one swipes or present the items over the scan area in many different angles.
Being sleek in form and compact in size, there is also an adjustable head that makes it a perfect space-saver, targeting busy and limited workspaces. It is sturdy enough to withstand 1 meter drops, and with its hands-free automatic design, it would then be suitable for stationary scanning and minimal handling. Smaller businesses might find it expensive to implement with an asking price of $279.99 a pop. [Press Release]
