CES 2014: Mozilla Premiers Firefox OS Tablet Developer Program
Mozilla has recently shown some Firefox OS enhanced smartphones at CES 2014 and contains also announced its plans to enter the high-end smartphone market with two versions which are yet to come.

But that’s not all Mozilla must get for 2014. Because it turns out, the business enterprise could be targeting the tablet field (who isn’t nowadays), in order that it has introduced a brand new Fire OS tablet programmer program that could provide fascinated parties with equipment references (via Foxconn) plus much more.

Mozilla wants to get yourself started the tablet business, of the year immediately after CES and they hope to finish off the project by the end.

By the image snapped by Engaged, the tablet and the UI will sport a pretty minimalist bundle and look pretty mid-range specifications. Another hint towards this theory is that Mozilla has recently parented up with VIA technologies to be able to release a type of mini PC with a sub $100 / €73 price.

We’re likely to see $100 / €73 Firefox tablets available on the market this year, too?
- At CES 2014, Mozilla Partners with Panasonic to Bring Firefox OS to the TV.

Nokia’s first Windows tablet Lumia 2520

Nokia has expanded its Lumia lineup by introducing a pair of new devices: a larger 6-inch smartphone and an entirely new product for the company, a Windows tablet. Both were revealed at the Finnish company’s Nokia World event in Abu Dhabi. Nokia also made several app announcements for its devices and the Windows Phone platform, the major one involving Instagram — the official word from Nokia is that the photo-sharing app will arrive on Windows-powered mobile devices in “the coming weeks.”
It’s packing LTE, and a 2.2GHz Snapdragon 800 CPU inside, with a bright 10.1-inch 650nit screen made out of Gorilla Glass 2. Nokia showed off a video demonstrating its outdoor readability in sunny Abu Dhabi, bright enough to check out Flipboard on Windows RT. With 1920 x 1080 display viewing angles are great and the brightness is equally impressive. Color reproduction is incredibly accurate, and it’s clear Nokia has really aimed high with the display on its first tablet.It also packs the Storyteller app seen on the 1520, along with a 6.7MP rear camera featuring Zeiss optics and a 2MP front facing camera.

As with other Windows RT devices, Nokia’s tablet gets the entire Microsoft Office RT suite with Word, Excel, Powerpoint and now Outlook. You also get some Nokia exclusives, like Nokia Music and the Nokia HERE maps. The company is also offering its own Nokia Power Keyboard, a wraparound cover that functions as a keyboard and trackpad, and will give the tablet five extra hours of battery life.

While the Surface 2 has its own Touch and Type Covers, Nokia has opted for a Power Keyboard. It adds a Surface-like keyboard and trackpad, alongside two USB ports and a boost of five hours to the battery life. Nokia says the Lumia 2520 should get 11 hours by itself, so it’s possible this device will reach 16 hours in total with the cover attached.

LTE included, the Lumia 2520’s unsubsidized price is $499 in either a red/white glossy finish, or cyan and black matte paintjob when it ships in Q4. Also included are quick charging capabilities that let its 800mAh battery go from drained to 50 percent charge in just 40 minutes. The Nokia Power Keyboard accessory shown above costs an extra $149, and promises an extra five hours of battery life plus two extra USB ports. Check after the break for a full list of specs and a video demo, we’ll have hands-on impressions of the new slate from Nokia World in just a moment.
