Hasta La Gadget!

Sure, the only flavor of the Galaxy Note 8.0 currently lining US shelves is the version just packing Wi-Fi, but it appears that the LTE variety is getting ready for a trip stateside. The FCC just inspected a version of the tablet carrying a 850 / 1900 GSM radio along with support for LTE Bands 2, 4, 5 and 17, which are all tell-tale signs of hardware that plays nice with AT&T’s network. For those in need of a refresher, Samsung’s tablet runs Jelly Bean and boasts a 1.6 GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, A-GPS, GLONASS, a hefty 4,600 mAh battery, WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0. With one of the final hurdles for availability on American shores cleared, you’re that much closer to laying your paws on a slate that can moonlight as an unwieldy cellphone.

JBL is known for its love of exotic speaker designs, but a new FCC approval suggests it’s about to turn back the clock for its next look. An unannounced Spark Bluetooth speaker appearing at the US agency wouldn’t look out of place at the top of a gramophone — albeit one draped in red plastic. It could also be part of the decor, as a manual in the filing suggests there’s support for mounting brackets. While the FCC filing doesn’t give away any launch details for the Spark, the 13W of total power hints that we won’t be paying a lot for our semi-retro audio.
