LEAKED: Nvidia’s New Product Is A Shield Tablet With Tegra K1
Nvidia recently launched a brilliant text adventure game to promote a mysterious forthcoming product, but a leak may have ruined the surprise.

Nvidia Shield takes a price drop
Nvidia has responded to consumer concerns over the price of its Android-based handheld, dropping the price this morning. Additionally, the company has announced that it will start shipping the units next week. Nvidia was coming to market with its Tegra 4-powered handheld at a price of $349 but now the price has come down to $299.
