This week at the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) in Las Vegas several major companies including Motorola, Research In Motion, Panasonic, Lenovo, Asus, and Vizio have announced tablets. Most of the tablets announced are running Android, and Google today announced Android 3.0 (Honeycomb). Honeycomb is designed exclusively for tablets, but it is not ready yet and won’t be until sometime later this year. Research In Motion’s tablet will be running their own software, and a few of the tablets will be running Windows. Unfortunately many of the tablets announced this week will not going on sale to the public for at least for 3-12 months (if ever).
Last year several companies announced tablets including HP, but never actually released the products they announced (HP is expected to announce a tablet on February 9th, 2011 running their own webOS). While we are optimistic that most of the tablets announced this week will actually go on sale sometime in 2011, it is likely they will be released sporadically throughout the year so stay tuned to TabAttack for up-to-date tablet news, and rumors.
