I wonder if the rumored Google Tablet will force Apple to pull the launch of their tablet.

"...7-inch touch screen, 3-megapixel camera and various sensors such as a three-axis accelerometer and an ambient light sensor.

Next to the 512MB of RAM, up to 64GB of internal storage (microSD expansion) and a 1GHz processor, Freescale's smartbook tablet features a potentially killer spec: a $200 price tag. Next to an Android or Linux operating system, it also includes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and options for a 3G modem."

$200. Compared to Apple's rumored $600-800. Dude. Apple just got its thunder stolen.

Responses:

the $200 is not a direct-to-consumer price, it's to any company that wants to rebrand and resell it at a marked up price - Beryllium Jan 5, 09:31
