Betting heavily on Microsoft to revive its fortunes, Nokia is in a position to sell as many as 37 million Windows Phone handsets this year and 64 million in 2013, says a Morgan Stanley report cited by  AllThingsD . Of course, much of that forecast depends on just how hard Microsoft will work to promote its partnership with Nokia. The two companies already reportedly plan to  spend $20 million  to market their new lineup. Nokia has been pushing its Lumia phones, with the  710 now available  through T-Mobile, the  800 selling in Europe , and the  LTE-compliant 900  sailing to the U.S., possibly  as soon as March . With AT&T set to carry the 900, Nokia is also counting on the folks at Big Red to lure in U.S. customers. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, Nokia CEO Stephen Elop, and AT&T Mobility CEO Ralph de la Vega took the stage together at  CES  on Monday to introduce and tease the 900 for the crowd. Already putting in a good word...

Row upon row of tablets at CES 2012. In spite of manufacturers' best efforts, the  tablet  hits of the past year could have been counted on the hand of a careless woodshop teacher. Among those hits are a  $199 tablet  designed as a loss leader, and an orphaned  HP tablet  that was abandoned in the liquidation bin. Needless to say, if there had been a thin selection of tablets at this year's  CES , I would have understood. But that wasn't the case. The show floor of CES 2012 was littered with tablets--perhaps even more than the previous year. Granted, the majority of these tablets were off-brands and OEMs that will never find their way into U.S. hands, but there were big-name announcements as well. Asus's Memo 370T tablet is one of the first tablets to pack Nvidia's Tegra 3 processor. As I see it, the tablets announced at CES came in three flavors: budget; premium; and mutant (not as bad as it sounds). Furthermore, I suspect that these themes wi...

Intel president and chief executive Paul Otellini talks about the company's smartphone and tablet plans at CES 2012. Intel made the case tonight that it didn't miss a step in the smartphone and  tablet  game, instead offering that computing has become device-agnostic. Nonetheless, Intel spent the majority of its focus on smartphones and tablets, announcing deals that should spur more Atom-powered mobile devices in the near future. On the smartphone front, that amounts to a reference design for a phone with a 4.03-inch LCD, two cameras (including one at 8 megapixels), and one of Intel's low-power Z2460 processors. The company hopes it will cut down the time and money it takes OEMs to get new phones out the door.
