Hasta La Gadget!

Okay, so the general assumption at this point is that Tuesday’s big Verizon announcement will be the oft-rumored CDMA iPhone. But as for when it comes out, well… the Wall Street Journal is saying (by way of its long-standing sources) near the end of the month. Nothing else to go by at this point, but it’s definitely not out of the question. At least we won’t have to wait long to find out — say, have you bookmarked our liveblog yet?

It’s been raining tablets here at CES 2011. No seriously, it as if the sky has opened up in Vegas and dropped touchscreen slabs with Android and Windows 7 operating systems on our heads. It’s been nearly impossible to keep track of the number of tablets released and the details we’ve learned about them… until now, that is. After the break you will find a complete list of all the tablets we have heard about as well as a few key details about ’em. You’ll notice that most of the tablets listed plan to run Android 3.0 — if you’re looking for more on Google’s not-yet-released tablet OS, you’ll want to check out our guided tour and our interview with Google’s Matias Duarte. The show isn’t over yet so expect us to add more tablets over the next couple of days, but without further ado, we give you the official Engadget tablet chart of CES 2011.

You’ll also note that we’ve denoted our favorites in bold, so pay closer attention to those and make sure to click through to hear why they’ve impressed us so much. Enjoy!

One of the things that I like most about using Google as my primary search engine is that their page loads quick, and it’s simple. There’s no “extras” to slow down the loading time which means I’m able to perform my search faster. If they ever changed things, I must admit, I’d be a bit disappointed which is why I’m hoping that the changes they’re making over in Asia won’t eventually be implemented here as well.

According to PC World, Google is experimenting with a new homepage design in both Taiwan and Hong Kong saying that they’re doing it to “take advantage of faster broadband speeds.” What they’re actually doing is directing users to an iGoogle page that is filled with “stuff.” Google co-founder Sergey Brin says that so far the response has been positive, and that the design is more appropriate for the culture there.

If they’re taking advantage of faster broadband speeds, I’m sure the page probably loads just as quickly as the plain Google homepage loads for me, but then the issue is all of the extras cluttering up the page. So, with that… how would you feel if the Google Homepage was re-designed to look something more like iGoogle with Gadgets, and links to other Google services? I’m pretty sure Google wouldn’t take that route here, but if they did…
