The annual Google I/O conference for developers will be opened for the registration on Wednesday, March 13 at 7:00 a.m PT.
The price of  the ticket is $900 for general attendees and $300 for academic attendees.
Google always announced the lasted product in this conference. For example, in 2012 they announced Android 4.1 Jellybean. Someone predicted that they will announced Google Glasses this year on the conference.
The sweet part is that Google gave away valuable staff to attendees. Last year, they gave away a Nexus 7 tablet. Therefore, the ticket looks like a pretty good investment.
Yeah, Look forward to going there.!

Surface Pro is coming soon

Microsoft has announced that their new product Surface Pro will released on Feb 9th in U.S and Canada.
Surface Pro runs on a Intel chop chip and it is equipped with full features of Window 8 Operation system. However, tech writers give it negative evaluation after early review. Briefly speaking, It's too heavy to carry around. Its battery life is only 4 hours not even half of any Mac pro or iPad. There are only around 23G hardware storage for the freest model.  Customers has to spend extra $120 on the fancy keyboard. Not worth buying it. I would like buy a similar Mac Pro with cheaper price.

128G ipad

Apple have announced that they are going to release a new ipad with 128 gigabytes of storage capacity, twice as much as any previous model. Everything else is the same as what have put in the 4th generation.
The question is "Do we need that many gigabytes ?".
128G approximately equal 100 DVD-quality movies, 30 Blue-ray disks, 30,000 songs or 40,000 photos.
Potentially, this product is targeted for users who are using large amount of data. e,g architects, doctors or audio engineers.
That' s all I know. You can buy it on Feb 5th. $799 (with Wi-Fi only), $929 (Wi-Fi and cellular).
I won't but it. 16G it's more than enough
