This week on Fringe the team… ok, we’re really not sure what’s going on anymore.

- Toshiba Excite 10 ICS tablet goes on sale, prices start at $450 for 16GB model
It’s been a little less than a month since Toshiba unveiled its trio of Ice Cream Sandwich slates, the Excite 7.7, 10 and 13, and starting today you’ll be able to grab one of these for yourself. Unlike we’d previously heard, though, Toshiba’s pricing the 16GB, 10.1-inch Excite at $449.99 — which is 50 bucks less than what we were told back when it was announced. Meanwhile, if you’re looking for the more spacious 32GB and 64GB models, you’ll have to drop about $530 and $650, respectively. In exchange for that cash, you’ll be getting an NVIDIA Tegra 3 SoC CPU and a taste of vanilla-flavored Android 4.0, among other things. We know Toshiba’s got you excited, so head over to one of the source links below to pop your order in. Otherwise you can wait until the other two slabs go on sale next month.

Toshiba, Amazon | Email this | Comments - 802.11-2012 WiFi freshens up spec with 3.7GHz bands, mesh networking
It’s hard to believe that 802.11 WiFi has only had three major revisions since it was started up 15 years ago. The IEEE must be equally surprised, as it’s introducing a new 802.11-2012 standard that unites 10 technologies from various amended WiFi versions under one big tent. Among the picks are new support for 3.65 and 3.7GHz bands, to avoid clashing with 2.4GHz or 5GHz networks, as well as better support for direct linking, faster cellular hand-offs, in-car networks, roaming and mesh networking. You can pay $5 to have a peek at the 2012 WiFi spec today, although we’d brace for a significant wait before smartphones and routers ship with the new 802.11 format — we know how long it can take for a WiFi standard to become a practical reality.

Weekly poll: What's the most exciting event of the next few days?

Weekly poll results: the Moto G7 Plus is the favorite in the G7 family
This probably won't come as much of a surprise - of the four new Motorola models, people strongly prefer the Moto G7 Plus. It offers a premium experience at just 300. This includes shooting 4K selfie videos, something that most flagships can't do. The rear 16MP camera boasts OIS and EIS, the lack of a tele/ultra-wide camera isn't a huge loss, judging by the comments. Same with the chipset - Snapdragon 636 is okay. But people weren't too happy about the 3,000mAh battery, despite its 27W fast charging capability. It's true that an Honor Play or Pocophone F1 have higher capacity batteries...
Motorola Moto G7 Power review
Motorola's launch event in Brazil was quite the Carnival. We got not one, not two, but four different Moto G7 devices. We haven't been always keen on this kind of fragmentation, but when done right, the consumers are more than happy to have more choices. So, please buckle up, as today we will take the Moto G7 Power for a ride.
