Is 2010 the year of the tablet? All sources–leaked or otherwise–seem to point to “yes.” There are plenty of rumors surfacing around such device emerging from known quantities like Apple and Microsoft, but the real news is coming from dark horse such as Fusion Garage, which has been touring around the country showing its JooJoo pad to anyone who will take notice.
The JooJoo tablet (formerly known as the CrunchPad) may have some stiff competition this coming month, however. A company called Notion Ink is reportedly launching a still-unnamed tablet “smartpad.” It’s a snazzy-looking piece of hardware running an NVidia Tegra T20 chipset. The tablet features 1080p HD video, built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a Pixel Qi display.
The Notion Ink tablet will run Android and feature full gesture support. It weighs 1.7 pounds and comes with either 16GB or 32GB of storage built in, plus an SD slot, so you won’t have to rely solely on cloud-based computing, as with the JooJoo.
The device is set to debut at CES in Las Vegas next month.
