Tablets will be on display everywhere at CES this week. It reminds me of digital photo frames and eReaders last year. Everyone had’em. Not that many were very good.
Here’s a round-up of some of the tablet launches planned in Vegas.
Toshiba
Toshiba took the wraps off its tablet entry before the official start of CES. It’s got a 10.1-inch touch screen, NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core processor, and will run Android Honeycomb (aka Android 3.0). CNET’s Donald Bell liked his first hands-on experience with the device, though he only got to check out the hardware, not the software. He said it felt more polished than the Galaxy Tab, and more rugged than the iPad. It also sports two cameras, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (no cellular connectivity), an HDMI port, and removable battery.
Motorola
Motorola, meanwhile, has been teasing its entry tablet device for months. We’ll see the official unveiling at a press conference scheduled for tomorrow, but there are a few details we already know. It too will have a 10-inch screen and run Android 3.0. But the rumor is that it will also have a hardware upgrade option to add LTE. World’s first 4G tablet?
