PC tablet

Apple has always been leader in the world of gadgets and innovation in technology.They have set up standards which world has followed.When Steve jobs introduced Apple Ipad ,he would definitely had some vision as how this would start the race wherein others would follow suit.


My focus in this blog is not Ipad,probably lot has been written about it.I am more interested in lot of other PC tablets which have hit the market or which are supposed to hit.What is interesting to see is that most of these tablets are android based.
Indian based Notion Adam was one that seemed at one point of time giving serious competition to Apple Ipad.They almost created a stir when Adam was displayed in Mobile World Congress 2010.With Pixel Qi  transflective display(that make this device visible even in broad sunlight,Ipad users can't boast of this),Nvidia T20 Tegra Chipset,180 degree Swivel Camera,1080p Full HD video playback with Android based platform,there were huge expectations from Adam.However Adam never saw it's launch,whether it will be launched is still unknown.


There are others which have come up with android .The Dell Streak is a hybrid device that lives in the space between a smartphone and other larger tablets or netbooks that you might be using right now.It comes with 5" screen and with 1Ghz Snapdragon Processor,5MP Autofocus Camera,Front camera for video conferencing,3G,Wifi(802.11 b/g;n is missing),Bluetooth 2.1 and other features,this is a good device for android lovers and those looking for a small 5" tablet or smartphone.


Archos is another company among others to come up with Tablet with android as platform.Though it doesn't seem anyone giving serious competition to Apple Ipad at present,i would really love to see Fryo comming in these tablets soon.That may change the scenario.








There are tablets with Windows CE embedded as platform.HP Slate which has a 8.9-inch 1024 x 600 capacitive multitouch display, a 1.6GHz Atom Z530 processor with UMA graphics and an accelerator for 1080p video playback is supposed to come up with an windows 7 .


Nokia hasn't left behind ,it's planning to come up with 7' and 9' screen with MeeGo as platform.The race has just started with Apple Ipad clearly leading the way as of now by miles.
