LG has been advancing a huge number of new items at CES 2015 in the not so distant future, but on the other hand its opened up a bit about its plans for the future - and those arrangements incorporate a smartwatch fueled by Webos as opposed to Android Wear, if a report in the Divider Road Diary is to be accepted.
It appears to be as if officials at the South Korean firm need to wrestle some force back from Google, in spite of the fact that there's no sign that it will quit making Android Wear gadgets like the G Watch R.
"We're going to gradually attempt to construct a biological system around territories we can have more control over," an anonymous LG source told the WSJ. At last that may incorporate cell phones also, the first home for webos - truth be told, a smartwatch needs a cell phone to adjust with.
Time flies
Set your old moronic looks for right on time 2016 on the off chance that you need to examine what LG has in store, however the news isn't precisely a colossal astonishment - we suspected this was in the pipeline as long back as October.
For the uninitiated, the smooth, card-based webos initially ran on Palm cell phones. It was grabbed by HP when Palm collapsed and after that sold on to LG - it can presently be seen driving a ton of LG's keen TV sets.
LG wouldn't be the stand out supporting its wagers the extent that Oses go, as Samsung has smartwatches, Tvs and cell phones in the casing emphasizing its own Tizen programming, and a huge number of Android-based contraptions.

Why Rove? Because it can do exactly that — the 20-inch display is fully portable with almost 4 hours of battery life. Although its mobility, along with the 10-finger multi-touch display, technically makes it a tablet, it's really better thought of as an all-in-one PC that you can move from room to room when you need to.
Windows 8has officially created a new category: the monster tablet. Last fall's Sony Tap 20could have been dismissed as a one-off aberration, but others have since launched giant screens equipped with batteries, includingHP, who just unveiled the Rove 20.
Horizon, the Rove has a special hinge that lets you use it in many different ways. Stood up at a high angle, it's great as a normal all-in-one or even an "easel" for a painting app. At a low angle, it's more suited for drafting. The hinge is made so you can easily adjust the angle with one hand.
It really shines when it's laid flat, though, since it becomes a virtual game board for any number of gaming apps. Many come pre-installed, including Monopoly, Fingertaps Jigsaw Wars and Musical Instruments, and Disney Fairies.
The in-plane switching (IPS) LCD will help with off-angle viewing from various players during gameplay. And if the accelerometer does anything weird, HP wisely provides a manual rotation button that puts you back in control of the screen.
The Rove 20 won't be available until July, partly because it's waiting on Intel's latest Core processors, the fourth-generation "Haswell" chips. Those are expected to officially arrive in the next month. The Rove will use as lower-power chip meant for Ultrabooks and hybrids along with Intel's integrated HD graphics.
The Rove packs 1TB of storage as well as an 8GB solid-state drive for faster response time. It's also includes the latest and greatest Wi-Fi (802.11ac) and WiDi for use as a wireless display from another device such as a phone or tablet.
Price isn't final yet, but HP says it'll be in the neighborhood of $1,000.
How do you like the Rove 20 and the new breed of Windows 8 supertablets/mobile all-in-ones? Let us know in the comments.

1Samsung has unveiled the new Ativ Smart PC and Ativ Smart PC ProWindows 8 tablets, the global versions of its Series 5 and Series 7 tablets also recently announced. In fact, the two new tablets are identical to the Series 5 and Series 7, and feature Intel processors, have 11.6-inch displays, and are available with a keyboard dock.
The major difference between the two tablets lies in the processors inside: the Smart PC runs an Intel Atom chip, while the Smart PC Pro uses the more powerful Intel Core i5 processor. The Pro also has more storage (256GB SSD vs. 128GB flash memory), more RAM (4GB vs. 2GB), and a USB 3.0 port in place of the Smart PC's lone USB 2.0 port. The Smart PC is slightly thinner than the Pro — 9.9mm vs. 11.9mm — and it gets 13.5 hours of battery life compared to the Pro's eight hours. While both tablets have 11.6-inch displays, the Smart PC has a 1366 x 768 pixel panel, while the Smart PC Pro upgrades to a Full HD 1980 x 1020 pixel LCD. Both tablets come with microHDMI ports and miniSD card slots, and the keyboard docks include two extra USB 2.0 ports. Ironically, the Smart PC has an 8-megapixel rear camera and 2-megapixel front camera, but the Smart PC Pro features a 5 megapixel rear camera and the same 2-megapixel unit on the front.
The Ativ Smart PC and Smart PC Pro run Windows 8 and support Samsung's S Pen input device with 1,024 levels of pressure sensitivity. They come preloaded with Samsung's S Note app that works with the S Pen and support 10-finger multitouch on their HD displays.
Samsung hasn't yet said when these tablets will hit the market, or how much they will cost, but we hope to learn those details in the near future.

BARCELONA — Intel continues its steady march into the smartphone market with new international partners in Europe, India and China. The company announced new Intel Atom-based handsets with European provider Orange, India’s upstart provider Lava International, and China’s ZTE, as well as a long-term partnership with Visa
Intel CEO Paul Otellini delivered the mobile Atom CPU (formerly code-named “Medfield“) update at Mobile World Congress. He noted that Intel is “no stranger” to the mobile market, stating that Intel shipped 400 million RF devices in smartphones in 2011. But the company also realizes that it needs to deliver a platform like the Atom Z2460, which partners are now slowly building into handsets around the world.
On the smartphone partner front, Orange is building a mass-market entertainment phone, which will ship in the U.K. and France this summer. Running Intel’s Atom Z2460 system, the phone will come loaded with a variety of Orange entertainment services. Yves Maitre, SVP Mobile Multimedia and Devices for Orange, said his company decided 18 months ago to “address a mass-market position,” while still delivering industry-leading features. “It’s a huge challenge,” said Maitre
India’s Lava plans on delivering a high-end XOLO X900 smartphone, which will feature an Intel 1.6GHz processor, 400MHz GPU and an 8-megapixel camera. Lava Cofounder and Director Vishal Seghal described India as the world’s fastest-growing large smartphone market. China’s ZTE has also joined hands with Intel and will deliver Atom-based handsets later this year.
Missing from the partner list was any company that would deliver Intel-based smartphones in the U.S.
Intel also announced a multi-year strategic alliance with Visa. The companies will work together to bring Visa’s services, including PayWave mobile transactions, to Intel smartphones.
Otellini also spent some time outlining the mobile CPU roadmap. Moore’s law, which states that the number of transistors (and thereby processing power) will double every 18 months, may be too conservative for mobile development. The current Atom CPU is built on a 32 nanometer process. By 2013, it’ll be on a 22nm process and 14 nm by 2014.
Advancements like that make it clear that Intel and its partners will be delivering more and more powerful smartphones over the next two years. Yet, even with heavy-hitter partners like Lenovo (which is shipping the Intel-based K800 in China) and Visa, the chip giant has yet to breakthrough with a smartphone in America, which is thus far dominated by ARM-based mobile CPUs.
Intel may be able to start turning the tide with the introduction of a new low-end Atom mobile CPU, the Z200. Offering 1GHz speeds and a price point that could allow manufacturers to build sub-$150 phones, the Z200 is aimed squarely at the rapidly growing value market.

In theory, Apple could leverage its patent on the Air to try and block manufacturers of other light, thin laptops from marketing their products in the U.S.
The patent, No. D654,072, refers to an “ornamental design for an electronic device,” and lists Steve Jobs as one of its inventors. While the term “MacBook Air” isn’t cited, the drawings of a laptop with tapered design is unmistakable.
Just before the patent was awarded on Valentine’s Day, a report on 9to5 Mac alleged that Apple had approached one of its Taiwanese suppliers, Pegatron, about ceasing production of another laptop with an eerily similar design, the Asustek Zenbook.
Pegatron, which recently began manufacturing iPhones for Apple, will reportedly cease Zenbook production in March, forcing Asus to look elsewhere.
Although the action, if true, occurred prior to the date when the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office awarded Apple its patent on the MacBook Air, it shows that Apple won’t hesitate to move against any competitor it sees as copying its ideas. The patent could embolden Apple to go after other makers of Ultrabooks, the Windows PC world’s answer to the MacBook Air, a project that Intel spearheaded.
There are several Ultrabooks on the market now, with dozens more on the way. If Apple decides to go after Air clones the way it’s waged its legal war against Android manufacturers, the consumer PC industry could be in trouble. Many companies — with Intel in the lead — have a lot riding on Ultrabooks, and the prospect of fighting Apple in court would make any CEO nervous.
However, there’s a simple way around the patent: Just design something different. Ultrabooks like the HP Spectre and Lenovo Yoga look nothing like the MacBook Air and should be in the clear.
However, Dell and Samsung — Apple’s favorite legal target — might want to start preparing counterarguments.
The iPad 3 rumor mill is ramping up, with the latest report that Apple’s newest tablet offering will feature 4G connectivity.
Many expect the next iteration of the iPad to be unveiled at an Apple event in early March, though Apple has yet to announce such an event. Behind the latest wave of rumors come reports that resales of current iPad products are shooting up. If you’re an owner of an iPad looking to upgrade, now might be the time to resell — though at a risk, of course, as we don’t actually know when the new device will arrive.
Of course, you could spend all your time trying to keep up with the latest Apple rumors and still not actually know anything. Nevertheless we enjoy the endless speculation. I asked Mashable‘s expert staff what features they want to see and what they hear users say they’re craving the most in a new iPad. Our poll below reflects the most common and most realistic expectations.
There were some more outlandish responses, too, for ideas that are unlikely to appear in the next iPad. For example, Pete Pachal suggested he’d like to see a bendable body, solar charging capability, and handwriting recognition. Not to be outdone, Matt Silverman suggested…cupholders.
We want to hear what you’re hoping to see. Take our poll below and let us know in the comments what features we’ve left out.

Intel has been dying to get its chips into mobile devices for a long time. Almost all phones and tablets today have processors based on the designs of U.K.-based ARM. Now Intel hopes to start chipping away (ouch!) at ARM’s near-total market share with a new kind of processor called Medfield.
Although the 32-nanometer Medfield chips have been in the works for a while, Intel recently showed off prototypes that use the processor to Technology Review. The company also hyped Medfield in a presentation at a technology conference, revealing some performance benchmarks.
Intel is mainly known for designing chips that emphasize performance over power efficiency. In other words, their processors have great specs, but they’ll suck a phone’s battery dry before lunchtime. Intel’s tried to make inroads into mobile with its Atom line of processors, which Medfield is a part of, but hasn’t had much luck.
Medfield is supposed to change all that. One of the problems Atom has had is that the chips aren’t single system-on-a-chip (SoC) solutions, so they were never be as compact or as efficient as ARM’s designs. Medfield, however, is an SoC design to meet the low-power needs of phones and tablets.
Now Intel is showing the world just what Medfield can do. The company built a prototype Android smartphone powered by Medfield. About the size of an iPhone 4S but lighter, the phone is said to have fast Web browsing and a “burst mode” for its camera that can capture 15 stills per second, each at 8-megapixels.
In Intel’s presentation on Medfield, it said its “reference design” of a Medfield smartphone has best-in-class performance for Web browsing and graphics. (See the slide below.) For final products, however, a lot depends on the manufacturer’s implementation.
And of course right now there are no Medfield products, and very few mobile devices with Intel inside. Intel will be showing off its Medfield prototypes at CES in the hope of attracting some interest from manufacturers and partners. Mashable will be there to give our verdict as well.
