There is a rumor that APPLE will be releasing a 7 inch design of an APPLE Tablet, according to PC World as early as January 26th.
We all know about the recent SONY, Barnes & Noble and Amazon’s e-book readers which provide an interesting mixture of technologies to allow the screen to provide low power usage and glare-free viewing even in bright sunlight, ideal for reading on any device. The added benefit of color that currently eludes E Ink screens on the market have also been rumored. The display made by a company called Qi, touts a hybrid E Ink and LCD screen. So I wouldn’t really call these devices “tablets” but they are certainly some form of it, an it all depends on how you define the design.
And what about the operating system within this 2010 tablet race ? Reportedly a 10.1 inch tablet will run Google’s Android, which is now become a popular OS for devices as well as phones… I like that one!
So 2010 may hold many options for tablets with Dell, Asus, Microsoft and Apple all supposed to have tablets in the works it’s an exciting time for this market.
