This $210 Ryzen-powered laptop may well be the best value business notebook ever

The Motile M141-BK laptop - an own-brand offering from US retail giant Walmart - could be a godsend for small businesses looking for devices on a shoestring budget.

For the super-low price (just $209 including delivery), you won’t find a laptop with an equivalent specification anywhere in the US.

It features an AMD Ryzen 3 CPU with Radeon Vega 3 graphics (likely the AMD Ryzen 3 2200U, which is similar to the 8th generation Intel Core i3), and is available in black, silver and rose gold colour schemes.

What do you get for your money, other than a CPU that trounces everything in its price range? Just because it's an own brand product, don't think this Walmart laptop doesn't pack a punch, as there's 4GB memory and a 128GB SATA SSD, both of which can be easily replaced - a boon for busy IT system administrators.

The keyboard is backlit and there’s a front facing IR camera, which is great for Windows 10's Hello security feature. It boasts no fewer than four USB ports (including one Type-C connector), a full size Ethernet port, a headphone jack and an HDMI slot.

The M141-BK features a 14-inch full HD display, supports THX spatial audio technology via two speakers, and there’s even a microSD card reader hidden in the front. At 2.55 lbs, it is also surprisingly light for a device with a screen this size.

The future of Magic Leap's promising AR efforts dim after layoffs

The Magic Leap Two is now further away than ever, unfortunately. Today in a blog post the augmented reality pioneer announced major layoffs and has decided to cut up to half of its workforce, according to some reports. The original Magic Leap One was supposed to be one of the first mainstream augmented reality headsets when it launched in 2018, but a high price point and lack of interest from developers left the headset high and dry after launch. According to the blog post, Magic Leap says it will be focusing its efforts on enterprise solutions (a statement HTC has made recently as well) and shift its focus away from consumer technology… at least for the time being.  The company has been open about creating a second headset that would offer improved specs for some time, but how that work will now have to go forward without half of the team , according to some estimates, remains to be seen. Is the window closing on augmented reality?  Although it’s just one company, Magic...

Airship acquires SMS commerce company ReplyBuy

Airship is announcing that it has acquired mobile commerce startup ReplyBuy . The startup (which was a finalist at TechCrunch’s 1st and Future competition in 2016) works with customers like entertainment venues and professional and college sports teams to send messages and sell tickets to fans via SMS. It raised $4 million in funding from Sand Hill Angels, Kosinski Ventures, SEAG Ventures, Enspire Capital, MRTNZ Ventures and others, according to Crunchbase . Airship, meanwhile, has been expanding its platform beyond push notifications to cover customer communication across SMS, email, mobile wallets and more.

He also suggested that both the COVID-19 pandem...
